Star Trek: Pretoria is an RPG based around the Eclipse-class USS Pretoria. It was established on 4 October 2000 and still runs to this day.
Star Trek: Pretoria is a conscious collaborative effort, featuring writers are from many backgrounds, values, upbringing, history and religions. From Sweden, South Africa, England, Canada and the US. Star Trek: Pretoria's universe stands as a rich tapestry, woven together by our players, current and past. On board the USS Pretoria, we explore the unknown reaches of space, and the guts and inner soul of our characters. Time period is several years after Star Trek Nemesis.
Star Trek: Pretoria is unique among RPGs. There is no MACOs or Marines on board. Episodes have a balance of action-adventure, science and exploration. There is no war, no massive enemy attacking the Federation. The GM, Alley Cat, has become aware that recent episodes are too dark, more light-hearted episode are needed, and a conscious effort will make sure to keep future episodes more balanced towards comedy and personal character development, keeping away from dark themes when possible."
