Jump to: navigation, search STAR TREK RPG USS Authority (480 × 339 pixel, file size: 25 KB, MIME type: image/jpeg) Authors: Various Format: Email USS Authority is a fictional roleplaying game set in the Star Trek universe. The timeframe is roughly five years after the Dominion War and is open to all experienced and novice writers. The ship is connected with the Bruin 19 Fleet, an ongoing saga of life in the frontiers of space, where the story unfolds with various contributors writing installations showcasing unique characters in dramatic situations, sent via email to a common mailing list. Each are inspired by the various Star Trek shows, TOS, TNG, Voyager, DS9 and even Enterprise. The group began in 2004 (approximately 2385) and has written continuously since. It continues in real time (a year equals a year); therefore it is now 2388 as of this writing.

Bruin 19 takes a very serious approach to writing and dedication to the Trek vision of Gene Roddenberry. The Bruin 19 RPG is based upon the Star Trek series created by Gene Roddenberry and is no way affiliated with Paramount Pictures Corporation or Viacom.
