The Golden Stars lurked in the shadows. The Consortium destroyed from within. The Dolmoqour used the best parts of yourself to betray your kin.
For the last two years, the crew of the Akira-Class USS Black Hawk-B have been forced through the tumbler where rocks become precious gems. This ship and crew now are among the best and the brightest in the Gamma Quadrant. Some have started families, others have found love, and others find solace in the bottom of a bottle.
The USS Black Hawk is now returning to the unknown, no longer on missions to dig and investigate deep, dark secrets, but to boldly go where no one has gone before. Little do any of them know that what they will soon encounter will be their greatest test of all!
Are you among the brave, bold, and curious in the Federation? Do you want to be a part of a decorated sim that has received multiple accolades from the simming community at large, including being recognized as a 2018 Squiddie recipient? Then the Black Hawk is for you!

Camila sat in her office going over the plans for the new measures placed shipwide and gave a small nod. With the help of the Binar and some extreme outside the box thinking, the invaluable assistance of Lieutenant Frex and Mak, as well as others, the clone detection system and…

Quinn sighed. As an ensign, he'd gotten quite used to handling menial roles and duties. Little had been off-limits. Extracting waste from the holodeck, purging isolinear relays. getting a fresh bag of Wilkins coffee beans from the cargo bay for the Bolian chef...
What he hadn't expected upon returning to…

Maddy moved down the corridor leading toward the Intelligence Complex with that familiar mix of purpose and an equally familiar feeling of exhaustion. This was the last stop on the grand tour. Last department head to meet. Last introduction to be made before the remainder of the crew met her…

Maddy slowed her pace as the corridor curved toward the Chief Counselor’s office. She exhaled softly, letting the breath ease some of the tension in her shoulders. This was nearly the end of it—her long circuit of introductions, briefings, and polite formalities with every Department Head aboard. Only a couple…

Joey stood in the living room of what felt like her home once again, the gentle thrum of the engines vibrating through the deck plating like a steady heartbeat. The space was definitely lived in—soft blankets draped over the couch, toys scattered on the floor, and the sounds of dogs…

With that, Mission 27 AND Season 4 have come to an end. "Imposters Among Us" will remain open for all of those remaining posts to come to an end.
I want to thank each and every one of you. Without your contributions, your willingness to participate in this wild and crazy sim and these torturous adventures, none of this would be possible.
So, what's next?
Well, for us players, we are officially in the holiday season. Feel free to write as time and muse allows.
For our characters, we're going to employ the ever-popular timeskip. The current In-Character date is July 8, 2390. Season 5 will begin in late-January 2391. That's roughly five months later.
During these five months, there will be shore leave and patrolling the Gavara system and surrounding sectors. Quiet life. Feel free to write for your characters during that time in Mission 28: Interlude. New characters are welcome to officially join us during this time.
If you have any questions, reach out to me on Discord. Happy holidays!!!

As we finish our current mission, I've gone ahead and opened our next one "Epitaph." This will be an "interlude" mission that will be happening between now and January 1st when we'll kick off Season 5. A few JPs have already started there.
This mission will span from July 9, 2390 to February 1, 2391. During this time, the Black Hawk will be operating out of Gavara IV and will make regular runs to Gamma Command.
If you have any questions, feel free to hit me up in DM.
