Planetary History[edit]

At an unspecified point in time prior to 2690, the Trailblazer JumpShip suffered a catastrophic accident. A mini-meteorite tore into the circuit junction that connected its jump drives to its computers, stranding the ship in the Omega Lord system.

After a year of unsuccessful repairs, a bloody mutiny ensued. The commander and most of the senior officers were killed, leaving only 391 of originally 479 crew alive. The survivors attempted to set up a colony on the system's third planet and built a crude fortress-settlement there, but subsequently succumbed to huge herds of local carnivores and catastrophic diseases.

An HPG transponder signal finally led a rescue flotilla (survey vessels of the 169th Flotilla under Commodore Thomas Jenkins) to Omega Lord in 2690. The Trailblazer was found as a gutted hulk (though outwardly in good condition) orbiting the system's third world. Ship's logs and the remains of the colony on the planetary surface relayed its story, but the search teams found no survivors.[1]
