We are a Star Trek Role Playing Group (RPG) that have been playing together since 1999. Borderlands is a writing sim, written in a narrative style. Here people from all walks of life come together to share in a fantasy experience through their common love of Star Trek. Each person assumes the identity of a character that they themselves design. Then, they immerse themselves in our story, and our ship, the USS Hornet.
In Borderlands, you can choose to become a member of Starfleet where crew members play as part of a team in a wide range of missions, from science, to exploration, to full scale battles. All this takes place just a few years after the end of DS9, and the Dominion War
Our aim is to offer our members the most realistic and exciting RPG experience that can be found on the internet today, while at the same time providing a friendly online community that we are all proud to be connected with. Everyone has a chance to advance to a leadership position by demonstrating dedication, good writing and teamwork skills.
We believe we offer one of the highest quality Star Trek Role Playing experiences on the Internet today. We would like to encourage you to join us right now and let the USS Hornet take you to "strange new worlds" filled with excitement, discovery, and the opportunity to grow. Here you can find new friends, improve your writing skills, bask in the Star Trek experience, and find escape from the "real world".
This is the adventure you've been waiting for!
You may ask, "Why join the USS Hornet when there are so many other Trek RPG's on the Internet?"
First, the ship has a dedicated command staff that works to ensure the game stays active and fun. Second, there is no time wasted in any online Academy. You are assigned directly to the ship, giving you the opportunity to get involved immediately with real storylines, and giving you the opportunity to mingle with the more experienced players quickly and with no fuss. Training is provided while you are involved with an active dutystation. What better way to learn than to "learn on the job"?
