Emerald Empire 1: Revelations

SystemSystem Member, NoReporting Posts: 178,019 Arc User
New Klingon Mission - just published and seeking 5 reviews to become public. Level 16+
ST-HSX589WXA

Conflict between Romulans and the Orion Syndicate leads to some potentially destabilising information regarding the Orions and their alliance with the Klingons...

Begins at the Hidden Console under the stairs in SE Storage Room of the Great Hall of Qo'Nos.

Caught between the deceiptful Tal Shiar, and the cunning Orions, you won't know what to believe.
A combination of space and ship interior maps, combat, rescue and "who-dunnit" missions, including STO's most happening Nightclub - The Lusty Wench's Lounge of Leisure!

Contains Adult Content.


This mission is potentially (if well received and people are wanting more) the beginning of a deeper look into the Orions. Like many Star Trek races, they are not well fleshed out with lore, instead are relegated to a stereotype based on a few encounters of a few individuals.

We do know that the Orions had a thriving civilisation at a time when humanity was still living in caves and hunting mammoths. However, the Orions are only ever portrayed via the Orion Syndicate, a mafia style organisation. But what about the entire culture, their government and the entire race?

Its like stereotyping ALL Italian Americans as being part of the Mafia. What about all the Italian Americans who are NOT part of the mafia? What about Italy itself? The Orion Syndicate allying with the Klingon Empire is similar to the Italian Mafia helping the US Army in Afghanistan, ie, providing some mobsters on the ground, whilst the entire nation of Italy itself remains quiet. It could hardly be called an alliance between the Italians and Americans though when no Italian officials are involved, only a crime boss.

If you are like me, you wonder, how powerful is the rest of the Orion civilisation? What is their status and views? What is the relationship between the Orion Syndicate and the Orions themselves? What color do Orions go when envious? More green or another color?

The Emerald Empire missions are designed to explore the possibilities of the Orions and flesh them out somewhat beyond the "All Orions are slaves, slavers, pirates and criminals" lame, unimaginative stereotype fostered thus far. Admittedly the first mission is deep within the stereotype, but hints at more beyond, a dipping of the toe in the water so to speak. Should the first be well received and enough interest shown, I would love to continue to unravel the mystery that are the Orions.

Estimated 1 hour. Constructive feedback appreciated. Its my first ever foundry mission so looking to learn. :cool:

    Is anyone able to review my mission? Its not too bad I promise!
    Its a mix of combat and dialogue and even a basic "who-dunnit", the dialogue is fine, and it does have STO's best nightclub in it for fun.

    Level 16+ KDF

    Cheers

    I think my Klink toon is level 16. I've only run 1 Klingon Foundry mission so far, so if I can get it, I'll try
    it in the next day or so for you. :)

    Can someone please search on the live server to see if this is now playable for all? I don't have a Klingon level 16 yet unfortunately :(

    Cheers
