YSS Kōun

The YSS Kōun (NG-S1-469) is a recently commissioned Plumeria Medium Gunship serving in the Star Army of Yamatai. It is home of the YSS Kōun Plot roleplaying campaign. Currently the ships are part of first fleet.

History

The new pride of the Star Army Navy was the YSS Kōun commissioned in YE 42.

The ship's first mission was under the wing of the YSS Kaiyō II. The ship was tasked with providing support and to prove Alastair Belmont could be in charge of a ship of his own. Shortly after this mission, the ship and crew were released to run their own missions.

The first big assignment for this ship took place in YE 44. The ship had been tasked to open a dialog with Soon Bardoon who had showed to be a front runner at leading the Kuvexian in what use to be Yamatai space. Details of this mission can be found within this report, here.

Pre-Mission One

The Koun was called to action to assist with the rescue of the Norian people during operation Fireplace. The Koun mostly played a support role helping to move refugees to a safe heaven.

Mission One: The Haunting Past

The crew of the ship was tasked to support a salvage operations out near Glimmergold. Things quickly escalated when the team ran into a ship that had been taken over by an evil AI. After a had fought battle the team defected the ship. This same ship would later become part of the fleet.

Mission Two: The Machine with a Heart

The crew had been tasked to explore a core machine world. One that had been explored before by the crew of the Resurgence. Through much confusion about where this world had ended up and why this would even happen the big bad boss showed up. A larger than life Mishhu mixed with an 8 legs robotic bottom. After a hard fought battle, the crew survived and downed the creature. A bonus was the rescue of NMX which would later lead to a follow up mission.

Description

If one was to rank ships within Star Army with regards to performance, the Koun would be in 1st or 2nd place. This is one of the defining themes for the operation of the ship. Crew with a strong desire to be the best would fit well on this ship. At times it may feel like a ship of misfits and this has to do with the operation targets of the missions. The missions do not always go to plan and can even be in conflict with Star Army as a whole. This is on purpose, designed to enhance character progression. One could say the Koun is not afraid to rock the boat of Star Command.

Crew

Current crew working aboard the YSS Kōun. A flex goal of the Koun is to have a well mixed crew of different races. It is not required to select a specific race but more the GM will find a way to get said race onboard the Koun.
