History

The Potemkin-class cruiser SLS Hermes was one of the Star League Defense Force naval WarShips that survived the Hegemony Campaign to liberate Terra from the forces of Stefan Amaris and subsequently followed General Aleksandr Kerensky on the Exodus. The Hermes was subsequently involved in the Prinz Eugen Mutiny, siding with the rebels aboard the SLS Prinz Eugen who wished to return to the Inner Sphere.[1][2]

As at 3061 the Hermes had been renamed Treachery and was a WarShip within the Clan Snow Raven touman. Serving as the CSR Treachery, the ship was one of five WarShips that made up the circe Battle Star. Like the other ships of the Circe Battle Star, including the Treachery's sister vessel, the CSR Rook, the Treachery was tasked with transporting personnel and materiel belonging to Clan Nova Cat from the Clan Homeworlds to the Inner Sphere at this point in time. The fact that the Treachery was the former SLS Hermes was a fact kept quiet by the Snow Ravens.[1]

After the Snow Ravens relocated to the Inner Sphere, the Treachery was placed in orbit around Quatre Belle. There it served as the home of Facility 12-A, producing OmniFighters for the Ravens. In the late 3070's however, most of Facility 12-A was removed from the Treachery and attached to the Quatre Belle ShipYard to form Crest Foundries.[3]
