Vernette First Officer Commander Logan Lyons Second Officer Commander (Doctor) Carson Beckett Chief Medical Officer Commander (Doctor) Carson Beckett Senior Recover Team Recovery Team Joker Senior Frontline Teams Task Force: 117 Cowboys From Hell Bartender Inconsistant Director Vernette's Personal Notes The King Raven was the first battleship I had ever commanded. She was the best. In every way, the Cloak and Dagger is better than the King Raven...but...you can say that the King Raven was my first real battleship. The first mission I took her on was in 2520 when I engaged the Trust. Even when she was outnumbered 3 to 1...the King Raven pulled through. THis was an amazing ship. Everything great that I have done in my career, most of it was done because of the King Raven. When I lost her in 2552...I couldn't believe it. I swore I would make those Covenant sons a' bitches for destroying my ship. Believe me...I made them pay A ship like the King Raven...is too great to let pass into the void of obscurity and destroyed ships. ONI will see to it that the King Raven flies again. I made sure that they would see to it. My only regret is that she won't be mine to command. No...that privlage is reserved for someone else. I envy that person. That ship...carries a great legacy... -Director Vernette
