Status Update - August, 2020 Edition

Posted on Sun Aug 9th, 2020 @ 10:54am by Captain Kelly O'Connor

The following is a news item from Captain Kelly Jean O'Connor.

It has been nearly nine months since I last sent one of these out. I think that I should get back in the habit of doing it. Normally, I send these out on the first of the month (give or take a few days) to give an overview of everything that happened in the month before and of what our goals are for the upcoming month.

Crew

In July, we had 5 crew members.

Website

We're going to continue improving upon the site to make it attractive and informative for all. If there's something that you want to see that we don't have, please let us know!

Sim

We had 4 posts in July with 5 people. We can do better. However, it appears that activity, in general, is picking up, especially with two new players arriving in August.

Mission Recap

Having set off with a new crew, the often cantankerous Captain Kelly Jean O'Connor is disturbed to be sent out on yet a new diplomatic mission. They are investigating a world called Aenerth for its admission into the Federation. On their way, they have found a crippled Aenerthan ship which requested assistance and seems confounded by America's willingness to help at no cost.

America has arrived at Aenerth and attended a brunch with the Aenerthan officials. After the brunch, the away team was split into groups of two. The away teams discovered that agriculture was continually bent on improving crops by genetic splitting. Industry had no safeguards for workers and Brian and Cara watched someone lose their arm and beg to stay on the job. The Chief Medical Officer and XO went to view the university and medical facilities. During a surgery, the student surgeon was failing and nobody assisted. The CMO did and saved the patient. It was explained that doctors that committed malpractice were let to die along with the patient. Because the CMO assisted, she accidentally ended up engaged to the student.

On the ship, T'Pruk, Cara, and Pendragon were exploring the news outlets and discovered that the planet was highly laissez faire and that the only area that got free anything were military members. Government officials had the best products, as well. Everyone else was left to their own devices.

While that mission is finishing, America has gone back and picked up new crew on two weeks of shore leave.

Objectives

Finish gathering information and file report with Federation regarding Aenerth's admission on Mission 7. Meet with your fellow personnel on shore leave on Mission 8 before flying off.

Player of the Month

Our player of the month this month is our new Chief Science Officer, Cara Ross. Redheads unite!

Ideas

If anyone has any ideas for character development or even some subplots, share them with us. I know that my door, as well as my XO’s are always open. Any questions, comments, or issues, please don’t hesitate to contact the Command team. We are here for you!
