Synergy News Network Staff
Q: So the Klingon Fleet just became a separate
division up from a sub-division of tactical and you were
elected as its leader, why did you decide to take on
this role?
A: I have liked playing Klingon from the beginning. I
saw an opportunity to build a strong Klingon force, and
with @lambogini's help, we hope to make that come
true!
Q: I know you a relatively new to this fleet and
Lambogini has been around for quite awhile. Anyreason why you two decided on you as the
commanding officer, any previous experience?
A; I did work with the Klingon's in my former fleet.
Started to build it before I left. Lambogini and I
discussed it, and he wanted XO versus CO. Plus, we
work well together. I would say we are at the same
level...it's just a title.
Q; A great way of putting it, and great to see we have
someone experienced heading this division, what plans
do you have for the Klingon fleet right now?
A: We are working on growing the PvP team, STFmissions, and currently checking out the new missionscoming with season 2. Also want to build thefleet...helping level, and getting to BG5 and beyond.
Q: Its great to seeyoure helping new players in the
fleet, as I know from personal experience it can be
rather difficult ha ha. I saw there is now a scheduled
event for leveling help, can you elaborate on that for
the readers?
A: Tuesday is Klingon day. Any available staff
members will be on the Klingon fleet, helping new
people level as we as getting to know the Command
staff. We are using it to grow interest in the Klingon
fleet, and get people over there!
Q: Great to see we also have someone so
enthusiastic about getting everything moving with
this new division, anything else you would like to say?
A: Come join us in the "House of Synergy We are
looking forward to fighting with you or against you!

Cpl.Pyle:: "Hey man, we're supposed to be searching for aliens!"
Cpl.Pyle:: "Not building a drug lab on this rock with its constant hurricane force winds and constant rain."
Pvt.Cheech:: "I'm not building a drug lab...its the future for the alpha quadrant."
Cpl.Pyle:: "Alpha Quadrant??, what the hell are you rambling about?"
Pvt.Cheech:: "Well, I figure if you take this blue pill you'll fall asleep and wake up here all wet and cold. But if youtake this red pill...well...you'll wake up in another ripple in the space time continuum called the alpha quadrant."

it...."Synergy"! Hahahaha....purrfect! Synergy is born; people will flock to it for a better experience than in this

A Twisted Tale
A Two-Part Character Biography By Zethen
Synergy News Network Staff
Zethen Astorias was born in a small town in what
used to be the eastern United States (what you
could call small by 24th century standards) as the
only son of a retired Starfleet captain and his wife.
Growing up in a small rural setting Zethen would
always strive to reach the stars, he would always
pester his father to tell him tales of his life as a
Starfleet captain, though his father always bluntly
refused retreating to his work office. Zethen always
wondered why his father always acted that way at
the mention of his career in Starfleet, but even at his
young age he respected his fathers wishes andnever bothered him further.
Around a month after Zethen had turned 8 while he
was dabbling around with his fathers tricorder, His
familys house was broken into by a group of
renegade Klingons who had come to earth to seek
revenge on Zethens father for an act he had
supposedly committed against them during his time
in Starfleet. Both his father and mother were
murdered that night in cold blood, in fact
disintegrated by the Klingons disruptors , Zethen
was hiding under his bed, which incidentally his room
was protected from outside scanners with a new
Starfleet technology apparently his father had
known an attack may have come.
The following years were plagued with trouble for
Zethen, he had moved to live with his uncle who had
never served with Starfleet and resented his brother
for joining with them, felt all of Starfleet was aconspiracy. With the stress from his new lifestyle
and depression from the death of his parents,
Zethen ran from his new home, trekking across to
San Francisco to the home of Starfleet..
He arrived at the then age of 13, arriving he broke
down in tears of joy, of relief. Which were noticed by a
passing pedestrian, who stopped to ask if everything
was ok. Zethen in a flurry explained everything, he was
then shocked to learn the man was of Starfleet, a
commander in fact. He told young Zethen that his
name was Link Hylias, and that he would help him and
that he believed everything he had said. Link took him
to the Starfleet headquarters in San Francisco and
therethey explained the story. Zethens Uncle was
notified, and was told that he was not fit to care for
Zethen and that his custody of him had been revoked.Link now felt responsible for young Zethen and took
him under his wing, honing his already natural talent to
lead and teaching him Starfleet basics.
At age 19, Zethen parted ways from his mentor after
passing his Starfleet academy entrance exam. Now
alone without his mentor Zethen struggled in his first
year at the academy, getting into trouble at one time
for attempting to contact Link during an exam, which
in an ironic twist as soon as he contacted Link, Link
contacted the instructor and ratted Zethen out.
Zethen learned from his experiences in his first year
and excelled in his second year. It was also in this yea
that the Federation had its first battle with the Klingon
Empire; Zethen secretly cheered on the death of every
single Klingon, his hatred growing.
While at the academy Zethen showed to be one of the
most intelligent tacticians that Starfleet had ever
come across, as well as showing superior leadership
capabilities than most in the academy. He had beencompared to the greatest tacticians of the old earth.
His skills proved so useful that the need to get him to
the field of the battle became increasingly important
(the war with the Klingons had been stressed with the
reappearance of the Borg). At his graduation his
mentor gave him the some advice that he used as his
modo of sorts Dont let anything stand in your way,
you are Starfleet, you are history.
