USS Harbinger

Exploring The Future

The USS Harbinger is a modified Sovereign-class starship set in the 28th century.

The ship year is currently 2785.

About the Starship Harbinger

The USS Harbinger patrols a new region of space–The Sigma Orion sextant. This unexplored area of space is unknown, so the engineers at Starfleet modified a Sovereign class starship to launch from Deep Space 90 to explore and make first contact with species who live there

Current Openings

Because the Harbinger has multiple openings on her manifest, we encourage you to look there instead.

Security Clearance Levels

These difference security levels exist on the USS Harbinger And are used by the computer to determine the access granted to an officer when accessing information.

  • Alpha 1 This is the highest level onboard the ship, and is only granted to the Commanding Officer and the Executive Officer, allowing them full and complete access to a majority of files on the ship. It is superseded only by the clearance of Omega 1, which is granted mostly to admirals.
  • Alpha 2 A clearance given only to the second officer and the Chief Intelligence Officer. It gives access to virtually every file that Alpha 1 gives, except the mission briefing from Starfleet.
  • Bravo 1 A clearance given to Department Heads. It allows access to all files needed to lead a department. Any ship-wide relevant files are also accessible.
  • Bravo 2 A clearance given to the assistant Department Heads within a department, grants limited access to the above.
  • Bravo 3 The only third-level clearance, given to general officers within a department, and allows access to files needed to complete assignments.
  • Gamma 1 Given to the civilians aboard the ship to restrict access to important files.

Weapons and Technology

  • Phase Torpedo: special torpedoes that can phase through objects on their way to a designated target. Comes in Photon and Quantum variants.
  • Phaser Mk X: A hand phaser variant with 33 settings, 16 cutting, 16 stun, and 1 kill.
  • Phaser rifle Mk XII: A phaser rifle that can switch between rapid fire automatic, sniper, and bolt fire modes.
  • Mk XII tricorder: A black touch-screen tricorder, the medical variant is identical, with the ability to send medical data to the ship from an away team. Both have small, hand worn scanners stored in the back, with a small black strap that retracts into the scanner.

Alert Conditions

Alert Condition Green Regular operating conditions, when the ship doesn't expect any problems to arrise


Alert Condition Yellow “Yellow Alert” The ship is operating under heightened conditions, shields are brought online, weapons are brought to standby, to be brought online at a moment's notice.


Alert Condition Red “Red Alert” The ship is operating under combat-capable conditions. Shields are raised, weapons are online, and all transport operations are suspended.


Alert Condition Blue “Blue Alert” The ship is preparing for docking or otherwise needs to operate on reduced power. Non-essential areas are shut down, non-essential decks are closed off (with life support to those areas being shut off) and all major systems are the only ones operating on full power.

Alert Condition Grey The ship is docked and not operating of its own power. Typically used when operations on board are warranted during refit or repair.


Alert Condition Teal A major medical emergency is present on board the ship. The warp nacelles glow teal, and the bridge gives off a teal pulsing light, with a warning broadcast on all frequencies that there is a major emergency on board and medical help is needed. Activated only by the CMO or EMH.


Alert Condition White Ship is operating under escort conditions, no one ship can be under this condition alone, and it can only be activated by an Admiral in command of a ship being escorted.


Alert Condition Purple The ship is operating under a heightened condition due to diplomatic crisis. Functionally a red alert with transporter capabilities. This condition is put in place while in orbit.


Ship Modifications

The Sovereign class used for the Harbinger is modified from the standard. Among these are the following:

Nicating Nacelles Originally present on Intrepid Class such as Voyager. Have been modified to work with the Sovereign class.

Emergency Warp Engine Located in the lower center part of the ship, the emergency warp engine can output a maximum of Warp 4 and activates automatically upon all engines going down.


Uniforms

The uniforms used in the 28th century have several modifications designed for comfort or practicality.

Biomesh A poly-alloy weave embedded in the fabric makes the surrounding environment comfortable for any species–without having to touch environmental controls. Also can be used to give a baseline for the medical department.

Water Resistance The newest generation uniforms were designed “like the feathers on a duck's back” to be water resistant, and the water just slides off. The uniforms can also detect a water-based activity and inflate or deflate as needed to keep the wearer above water.
