Typhon Station is a very fastpaced PBeM RPG with skilled, experienced players and a warm sense of bonding and community. We play at the turn-of-the-century, 2400, and are located in the Typhon Expanses, bordering the Neutral Zone, proximate to the Romulan Empire, and near the Iconian Digs, and are on the first warning route of the original Borg Incursion. We have three stations to post from, SB 185, USS Odyssey, and USS Wraith. They all have general and particular storylines and all interact. This game is not for the faint of heart! The writing is superb and comes hot and heavy. We have some open spots and also we will consider character suggestions. So, longtime RPGers and novices, check us out. See if you want to make Typhon Station your home away from home. (0 comments | Add) Don't miss a scene! Pre-order the STAR TREK NEMESIS novelization to support TrekWeb! (0 comments | Add)

Making first contact with alien races is one of the Enterprise's primary missions and in the thirteenth episode of the season, "Dawn," Trip will be stranded as the NX-01 struggles to work with a distrustful new species to rescue him.

The episode opens as Trip takes a shuttlepod to investigate a planet ringed by moons, but when an unknown vessel fires on his pod, the Enterprise loses contact and assumes he has crash landed. Archer soon learns that the region of space is claimed by a race known as the Arkonians and their representative 'Khata'n Zshaar' orders the Enterprise out of their territory.

T'Pol seems to know of this race and urges the captain to exercise caution. Zshaar is equally distrusting and when he spots T'Pol on the Enterprise bridge he becomes increasingly uncooperative. But Archer suspects that an Arkonian vessel probably shot down Trip's pod and makes an appeal to work together to locate both missing officers.

The captain finally convinces Zshaar to come aboard and assist in a rescue operation that quickly detects a Starfleet signal being sent with Arkonian technology. Archer surmizes that Trip and the Arkonian pilot have worked together to fashion the device and suggests similar cooperation between he and Zshaar.

Meanwhile, on the alien moon, Trip and his Arkonian companion 'Sha'Khana' must fight for survival every morning as the moon's proximity to the nearby star makes the daylight hours uninhabitable. The two have to find cover when the morning sun begins to heat up the surface.
