The galaxy changed forever in 2385.

In this Session 0 of our Star Trek Adventures campaign, The Cries of Mars, we set the stage in the aftermath of the Synth Attack that destroyed Utopia Planitia and left Mars burning. With the Romulan evacuation effort dead, Starfleet in crisis, and Admiral Picard resigned, what remains of the fleet has been reassigned to rescue, relief, and evacuation around the Red Planet.

Our story begins aboard the USS Thunder Bay, a Parliament-class vessel sent into the wreckage.

In this episode, we establish the setting, introduce the ship and crew, and forge character bonds using Daggerheart-inspired connection questions that will shape the campaign going forward.

This is a Star Trek story about duty, loss, and holding onto hope when the future feels uncertain.
