Faith and Duty

[Rhymus Cleroux]

Mission Title: Faith and Duty

Synopsis: The Commanding Officer of the U.S.S. ShipName receives strange visions regarding a catastrophe happening in the near future. But when Starfleet Command sends orders countermanding the crew's ability to help avert this disaster, it comes down to the crew to decide their fate. Do they side with faith or duty?

Starting Point: The Commanding Officer is subject to strange visions only they can see. The visions detail a major catastrophe in a nearby system that they can help prevent. At the same time, Starfleet Command orders the crew of the U.S.S. ShipName to help in a minor emergency that would send them away from the point of catastrophe.

End Goal: The crew of the U.S.S. ShipName must have decided whether to follow the Captain or Starfleet Command and must live with the consequences.

Story points that must be passed?:
The Commanding Officer of the ship must receive visions detailing future catastrophe in a nearby system.
Starfleet Command sends orders to the U.S.S. ShipName regarding a minor emergency that works against the will of the visions.

The Commanding Officer must attempt to illustrate the veracity and importance of their visions, as well as convince the crew to go along with them, despite being the only person to see them.

The crew of the U.S.S. ShipName must decide for themselves who they support, and what they are willing to do about it.

After coming to a final decision on how to act, the crew of the U.S.S. ShipName must either stop the catastrophe from occurring or follow their orders from Starfleet and live with the consequences of either choice.

Departments: (To make sure everyone has something to do.)
- Flight: Pilot the ship to its next destination, either from the Commanding Officer or Starfleet. The crew of this department must decide whether or not they support the Commanding Officer or not.

- Engineering: Maintain the ship, and if required, take control. The crew of this department must decide whether or not they support the Commanding Officer or not.

- Operations: Provide communications, scanner data, and perform other duties related to the Starfleet Operations Division. The crew of this department must decide whether or not they support the Commanding Officer or not. If not, Operations can find a way to undermine their ship to bring her back on course.

- Security and tactical: Keep the peace, and protect the ship and crew from harm. The crew of this department must decide whether or not they support the Commanding Officer or not. This includes, if needed, detaining the Commanding Officer.

- Medical: Keep the crew of the U.S.S. ShipName in good health. The crew of this department must decide whether or not they support the Commanding Officer or not. It is, perhaps, possible the Commanding Officer's visions are of a medical concern. If it is felt this is true, look into it.

- Science: Science crewman and Officers can look more into these visions if they have the training. The crew of this department must decide whether or not they support the Commanding Officer or not. Officers and crew can support medical in their research, or perform their own in regards to these strange visions.
