So This is the Oblivion, Feel free to criticise it, I understand it is a large vessel but I believe it has reason, and I've tried to balance it out in situations as much as possible :) It is late for me, so if I or my grammar equipment has missed anything I'll try and pick it up in the morning.

[b][u][color=red]Ship Name:[/color][/u][/b] The USLS Oblivion [b][u][color=red]Universe Background:[/color][/u][/b] The Human race was interested in the rapid expansion of the . as more planets were colonised the Outer colony seemed to Grow further and further from the System of Elgamo. After a time the outer colonies slowly grew angry, feeling mistreated the rebelled Of course the insurrection started off with small little raids on government Transports and transport vessels and soon grew to planet-wide riots. Soon most of the outer rim was In turmoil. The United Space Legion was set up to retain peace in these outer colonies Their military presence patrolled the trade routes and acted as an official Force of law in space, Whilst their Special Offices of Space command (AKA SOSCOM) ‘dealt’ with the militia leaders and kept the Outer rim under control. It is in this era of ‘peace’ that the Ship Oblivion was built. [b][u][color=red]Crew Complement:[/color][/u][/b] Composed of about 11,000 men, the Oblivion is compiled mainly of scientists, roughly about 6,000, about 4,000 legionaries including engineers , and about 900 troops and 100 officers [b][u][color=red]Ship Description:[/color][/u][/b] The Heavy Weight Research Ship; codename OBLIVION was originally intended as a heavyweight cruiser designed to quell the Forces of the insurrectionists. Once SOSCOM dealt with the insurrectionists the ship’s purpose changed. SOSCOM took control of the ship’s production, changing it from a heavy frigate into a research vessel. The Heavy cannons changed into Long distance radars and science arrays. Although the majority of the weaponry was altered to equipment, the main cannon An Anti Particle Accelerator Cannon,Known to the Crew as an APAC, as well as a few magnetic accelerators On each side. The Ship still contains the multiple hangar bays planned originally, but now are fitted for landing craft and a few small fighters. The space in the ship is a very sterile environment, and the majority of the lower decks are primarily for Labs and medical bays. Although primarily a research vessel there is still a considerable military force onboard in the form of marines and a couple of squads of Shock troops. [b][u][color=red]Unique Capabilities:[/color][/u][/b] As an experimental research ship, the Oblivion's shields and defence are much higher than your standard cruiser. But it’s fire power is massively decreased, It’s the main cannon, although very powerful would only be a short blast and requires too much energy to power to fire constantly in a firefight due to its size it isn't a very manoeuvrable ship but it has a fantastic straight line speed due to its experimental engines. Its advanced sensor array allows for the ship to detect extremely distant disturbances in space-time, as well as determine substances via spectrometers. [b][u][color=red]History of the Ship:[/color][/u][/b] Before being taken into the wormhole the Oblivion was assigned roughly 2000 astronomical, and physics research papers to complete on it’s 15 celestial year mission. Each paper having its own lab time, and 3 scientists assigned to it, once a paper was completed the scientists would then transfer to assist a different project. The latest Mission Was headed up by Kora stone, a budding physicist in the field of neutron stars, her latest paper being based upon the degradation of the neutron layer. Her research lead the Oblivion to the system Alpha hejalinas-99B When an unexpected gravitational disturbance appeared. [b][u][color=red]Some Important People:[/color][/u][/b] [list] [*][b]Captain Raiden Korten;[/b] At first glance, Raiden wouldn't be considered your average military officer. An outside of the box kind of guy Allows him to make strong well thought out decisions rather than taking orders at a first glance. He Often is known to situations into his own hands as he is a strong believer in the saying; "If you can't get a job done, Do it yourself!" [*][b]Executive Officer Miles Cantar;[/b] Miles is the Steadfast military brain, She worked through the ranks of the USL and was accepted into the SOSCOM officer academy. Trained in hand to hand combat she prefers to head up the ground missions on possible inhabitable planets or boarding parties on Pirate ships. Often used as a second opinion for Raiden in times of distress. [*][b]SOSCOM Science officer Alexander Haines;[/b] Often Referred to as DOC By the crew, he Is the brains on Oblivion's Mission into the Deep space void between the galaxies. It is his paper that the mission is originally based upon. Although the science officer he often dabbles in the Engineering of the ship, as it is controlled by an experimental Energy source allowing the ship to travel at thousands of times the speed of causality, well that's what they hope. [*][b]SOSCOM Head engineer Steve Thirlwell;[/b] Dr. T Is the headstrong leader of the engineering department in the oblivion. Good friends with Alexander to two often converse about options of increasing efficiency and increasing the jump range of the ship. Although there are 'disagreements' between some of the science staff and himself about the owner of some the equipment onboard. [/list] [/hider]
