Background:
Reena Harras was born on Betazed in 2332. At the age of 16 she entered the Betazoid Institute of Psychology under parental pressure. Just prior to entering her second year at the Institute she met Ros Myal, a Bajoran on his way back to Bajor. She was headstrong and stubborn and ran away with him to Bajor. Shortly after she fell pregnant with her first child, Indara.

Reena and Myal fought side by side in the Bajoran Resistance and then the Maquis, but following the death of Reena’s second child, Chalandra, Indara ran away. The same year (2362) her husband also died. She had no-where to turn and no-one to turn to. It was only when she left Bajor on a Starfleet Vessel and was consequently sponsored for entry into Starfleet Academy by a crew member that she re-discovered a purpose. She joined Starfleet Academy, graduating 9th in her class in 2366.

Reena Harras went on to be a published Science Officer – her originality and ingenuity standing her in good stead. After 2 years of superb research aboard the USS Galileo she was promoted to Lt jg. Following this, her career began to take off. She was promoted, published and requested for service on several ships from then on. During her tour of duty on the USS Adelphi her CO recognised her natural leadership abilities and on return from the mission he recommended her for entry into Starfleet Command School. She graduated with Merit and was consequently assigned to the USS Wraith, which shortly thereafter became stranded in the Delta Quadrant.

It wasn’t long before Reena had her first chance at command, all be it the poisoned chalice command – the USS Shadow. She commanded the small Romulan vessel until she and her crew captured the USS Phantom, which she continues to command.

Counsellor’s Notes:
Headstrong and outgoing with an astonishing ingenuity and originality of thought. Reena Harras is a dedicated Starfleet Officer with a natural talent for leadership. She is scientifically curious with a thirst for knowledge.

Unusually, even though Harras’ daughter, Lt Cmdr Ros Indara, is in Starfleet she does not wish contact with her. A standing request on her record is that she not be assigned to the same ship. Harras resisted assignment to the USS Wraith, but was eventually persuaded by the opportunity for scientific study.

USS Shadow

Thursday, February 17th, 2011

The USS Shadow is a captured Romulan Deresus class scout ship. Larger than the standard scout, the Deresus class strikes an excellent balance between nimble maneuverability and heavy weaponry. In addition to enchanced weaponry, the Deresus class also has a small shuttlebay capable of housing two shuttles. The ship, unlike it’s predecessors, also has long-term medical facilities and a Holographic Physician based on stolen Federation Technology.

The Shadow was captured during a covert intelligence gathering mission by the crew of the USS Hunter. Her original Romulan name being the K’korrivor, loosely translated as Heaven’s End. Her crew, not at that time knowing the translation of the name felt Shadow to be appropriate.

Until her last commanding officer, Captain Reena Harras, the USS Shadow had an unfortunate start to her service with Starfleet. Her first Captain, Alexander Stone, perished in a transporter accident shortly after taking command. Her second Captain, Commander Lincoln Pell, died in an attack by Ssoran mercenaries, again shortly after taking command.

The USS Shadow was captured by Starfleet in 2374 by the crew of the USS Hunter. She was involved in the liberation of New Terra after the SSoran war and was involved in the Falcarian War, during which she undertook a mission to steal an experimental Slipstream-capable ship from the Romulan fleet in the quadrant. The Aehallh Class vessel (USS Phantom) was successfully captured, but at the cost of the USS Shadow. The ship was destroyed late in 2377.

RES Baatine

Wednesday, February 16th, 2011

The D’deridex Class Romulan Empire Starship Baatine was commissioned in 2360. The class is overly large – almost twice the size of Starfleet’s Galaxy Class ships – and has become known as the Romulans’ flagship class. Indeed few other classes have been identified by the Federation even after devoting signifcant resources in the 2360′s and 70′s to gathering intelligence on the Romulan Empire and fleet. The D’deridex Class’ size, however, is deceptive, as much of the ships volume is devoted to the transportation of ground troops and a large quantity of supporting equipment.

The name ‘Baatine’ is thought to mean ‘Conquest’. Little is known about the ship’s history, although it is known that she did see combat in the Dominion War before arriving in the Delta Quadrant following a failed attempt to capture the exiled falcarian prince, Captain Sword Starheavens. The ship is currently under the command of Romari t’Khellian, the daughter of the Tal’Shiar Admiral Custle t’Khellian.


The Baatine has become Custle’s personal flagship in the Delta Quadrant. Custle has risen to power swiftly in the Delta Quadrant. Despite arriving after the Romulan Empire’s intial forces, he has taken command and also managed to rise to power within the Falcarian Allegiance. While he continues to search for Captain Starheavens, the pursuit of whom originally brought him to the Delta Quadrant, his primary target is now Captain Reena Harras, commander of the USS Phantom. He and Harras had prior dealings when she was a junior officer in starfleet. The encounter resulted in the death of Custle’s only son. In addition, the capture of the RES Aehallh (USS Phantom) has become an embarrassment to him. As a consequence his thirst for revenge is second only to his thirst for power.

USS Phantom

Tuesday, February 15th, 2011

The USS Phantom (NCC 71078) was designed and built by the Romulan Star Empire and named the RES Aehallh. A brand new class of ship, the Aehallh, is equipped with a unique Quantum Duality Drive. The drive utilises a gravity well, between twin Quantum Singularity cores to create a slipstream field. The duality system also affords the vessel a more stable and reliable warp field that that of normal Quantum Singularity cores.

Loosely translated from Romulan, Aehallh means Spectre, Ghost or Phantom. The crew of the USS Shadow, who captured the ship in 2378 felt this an appropriate name.

The name of the ship’s Romulan commander remains unknown, however since her capture and inclusion in the Delta Fleet she has been commanded by Captain Reena Harras.

Significant Areas of Note:
Primary Deck 1 – Torpedo launchers, disrupter banks
Primary Deck 2 – Secondary sickbay, Computer Core
Primary Deck 3 – Observation lounge, Function Suite, Crew Quarters
Primary Deck 4 – Stellar cartography, FATE core
Primary Deck 5 – Holodeck, Transporter rooms
Primary Deck 6 – Sickbay, Crew quarters, Recreational facilities
Primary Deck 7 – Bridge, Briefing room, Senior crew quarters
Primary Deck 8 – Shuttlebay, Cargobays

Engineering Deck 2 – Brig, Science labs, Security
Engineering Deck 3 – Disrupter Cascade reactor, Transporter room
Engineering Deck 4 – Atmospheric processing, Power transfer
Engineering Deck 5 – Gravity well
Engineering Deck 6 – Main engineering, Duality core

Two new technologies of note on the Phantom aside from the Duality core are FATE and the Disrupter Cascade Generator. The FATE core is an artifical intelligence which controls the majority of on-board monitoring, making independant corrections to maintain near perfection and optimisation throughout the ships systems. This feature is necessary to ensure the delicate harmony between the twin singularity cores is not disturbed. The Phantom also has a Cascade generator, which utilises disrupter banks around the ship to create a powerful disrupter pulse, which is capable of destroying a ship, even shielded (at close range).
