[Grizz]

Production Code: 3x03
Episode Title: "Aletheia"
Writer: Grizz
Air Date: 15th February 2014

Still under the shadow of a Klingon force gathering in Romulan territory for reasons that remain unclear, the crew of the Hera set about investigating the seemingly abandoned medical frigate which they journeyed to retrieve. But the ship is no longer wired to provide aid, as the away team spring a meticulous psychological trap which pits the exasperated crew against each-other. As the unidentified condition rapidly spreads throughout the ship, an increasing sense of claustrophobia only heightens the unusual tendencies that the away team begin to display. For some, it becomes a sounding board for some deeply buried truths and an open floor for suppressed desires. Captain Mason couldn't have asked for a more unwelcoming bonding experience to round off another sleepless night in the post-Hobus turmoil.

Production Note: If I had to describe the concept for this episode, it is something of a mix between DS9: Fascination, SGA: Hot Zone & VOY: Haunting of Deck Twelve. I'm sure you will all be fine. Bring a new side to your character with you.

An Introduction to 'Aletheia'

In the middle of a situation that the crew cannot control, I have decided to put them in the middle of another situation that they cannot control. A group of tired people on what has seemingly been a worthless rescue mission, are about to find themselves trapped aboard the very ship they travelled to save. Only by this point - it just might kill them. Or rather, it might just force them to kill each-other. Over the course of the episode, your character will become increasingly uneasy, anxious and paranoid of the actions of your fellow crew-members. All the while trying to get off the ship safety without attracting the attention of both the Klingons and Romulans. The cause and resolution are of course to be experienced during the roleplay - but feel free to have fun along the way. If you have ever wanted to play a completely different side to your AB/AF character, this is your chance. This will be eased in from the moment we board the frigate and there may be some unlikely pairings touring the ship. More importantly - will this episode also end with 'to be continued?'

Hope you enjoy!

Cannot. Wait. I propose - nay, demand that STAF become a daily SRP!

I would agree if it weren't for the fact that ideas would eventually run out for what can be done with it

I ran out of ideas five years ago. I've been shamelessly recycling ever since.

This is today!
