Welcome to the CL Dutchman!!
The year is 2380. The Gamma Quadrant is in disarray after the Dominion surrendered 5 years ago to the Federation. With the Dominion now a former shadow of itself, their ability to control territory has dwindled and privateers have found vast opportunities for profit within the quadrant. Many have come and gone through the wormhole in search of vast opportunities. With seemingly no one to stop those that choose to do as they please, there is chaos outside of the primary shipping lanes.
Now with a new ship and looking for crew, Zedd Sykes is out to make untold fortunes, considering all jobs from standard cargo runs and selling illegal technology, to straight up piracy on other ships should it be necessary!!
The question is, will you join him ?!?!?!??!

The maintenance access was exactly where Mei-Lin had expected it to be, though calling it an access point felt generous. Borg plating had grown over most of the opening, leaving only a narrow seam where a person could force their way through. Zedd studied it for a moment before looking toward Cormus.
“Can you get that open without announcing us to half the cube?”
Cormus crouched beside the seam and ran his scanner over it. “Probably. There is no active lock and no power running through thi...

"I don't trust this place at all, Ragnar. If need be, take a couple folks with you but I'd like you to cover the outer perimeter of the area and make sure nothing goes down. You know these drones better than I do, so better to be vigilant than not." The captain stood up and then picked up his rifle and took kit.
The back door opened, exposing the cube beyond once again.
The first to step out of the shuttle was Hunt, with his rifle at the ready and the duffle on his back. Looking down the B...

By eight hundred hours the Dutchman had been sitting inside the Borg cube long enough for the view beyond the shuttlebay doors to stop feeling quite as impossible as it had the day before. Recon had done what it was supposed to do. They had a mapped route through the sections nearest the ship, marked areas that still carried enough power to deserve caution, and a growing list of systems that looked valuable enough to justify coming back with more than scanners and curiosity. What they did not ha...

Betes sat in the armory, going over the layout of the Borg vessel, they currently found themselves parked in. Their very first mission and it was to steal from the Borg of all beings. Captain Sykes had quite the large set on him to pull a move like this one. But as Rule of Acquisition number sixty-two goes, the riskier the road, the greater the profit. And this was one hell of a risk. The plan so far was to take everything that wasn't completely bolted down and if things go wrong, then run. Whic...

Zedd nodded "I would, once we're secure up to there, I'll watch this jext.corner too." He looked up above them and then his eyes made their way back down the wall, still taking notes of conduits and anything else that looked odd.
“Zedd, it’s Avery. What do you see? Describe what Ragnar’s talking about. Could be a redundant power shunt, or maybe some version of energy converters. Converters can be valuable, Captain. We can recycle or sell them.”
"From what I gather it looks to be some sor...
