{{not in game|blog=yes}} '''Lore Blogs''' are blog entries on the official ''Star Trek Online'' website which are written from an in-universe perspective. They often serve to provide backstory for upcoming content. In addition to the individual blog entries summarized here, there have also been two series of short stories, ''[[Tales of the War]]'' and ''[[Post War Era]]'', published through the web site. ==Season Five: Call to Arms== ===Season 5 Dev Blog #6=== ;Captured Jem'Hadar Attack Ships * Captain [[Va'Kel Shon]] of the {{USS|Belfast}} records a log entry. His crew have discovered an abandoned [[Jem'Hadar Attack Ship]] in the [[Enocha System]]; the ship appears to be several decades out of date, and may in fact be a relic of the [[Dominion War]]. An away team sent to the vessel reports that it appears to be in excellent condition, and there is no indication of why it would have been abandoned. Musing that Tress would have appreciated this mission, Shon reports that his orders are to tow the vessel to [[Starbase 375]]. * In a separate log entry, Admiral Mirren Sola of Starbase 375 indicates that there are now three abandoned Jem'Hadar vessels at the station, and that the {{USS|Kirk}} has discovered another in the [[Pi Canis Sector Block]]. There are reports that the [[Klingon]]s have found similar ships, but Sola thinks it unwise to contact [[D'Vak]] about the matter. Messages sent to the [[Dominion]] have gone unanswered. * [http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/news/detail/1059120-season-5-dev-blog-%236 Official Blog - Season 5 Dev Blog #6 (December 7, 2011)] ===Season 5 Dev Blog #22=== ;Prelude to ''The 2800: Second Wave'' * Lieutenant C'thal of Starbase 375 and his team have completed their analysis of the recovered Jem'Hadar vessels. They have been able to confirm that the ship was constructed during the time of the Dominion War, and that all of the now-dozens of recovered vessels were from the same fleet. Further, neutrinos detected in all of the ships indicate that they originated in the [[Bajoran wormhole]]. He is unable to explain how the ship got from the wormhole to the Enocha System without being detected, or why the wormhole would suddenly be ejecting so many derelict ships. Assuming that the ships constitute a temporal anomaly, C'thal speculates that the derelict vessels may be from the Dominon fleet that went missing during Operation Return in 2374. He decides to consult the "Old Man" in hopes of verifying this theory. * [http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/news/detail/1058950-season-5-dev-blog-%2322 Official Blog - Season 5 Dev Blog #22 (February 10, 2012)] ===Season 5 Dev Blog #24=== ;Prelude to ''The 2800: Of Bajor'' * A [[Bajoran]] named Retan writes to a friend by the name of Neka. Retan lives in [[Hathon]], which is currently housing refugees from [[Deep Space 9]] following the events of {{mission|Second Wave}}. Retan notes that some residents of Hathon are uncomfortable with [[Bajor|Bajor's]] transition to [[Federation]] membership, and are unwilling to accommodate their new "guests." * [http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/news/detail/1058930-season-5-dev-blog-%2324 Official Blog - Season 5 Dev Blog #24 (February 17, 2012)] ===Season 5 Dev Blog #26=== ;Prelude to ''The 2800: Operation Gamma'' * [[K'men]] writes to Commander Sej of the I.K.S. ''K'vej''. He confirms that he ordered some Klingon officers to cause minor disruptions and gather intelligence in Hathon. While Chancellor [[J'mpok]] remains opposed to peace with the Federation, K'men does see some opportunities to cooperate with [[Starfleet]]. In preparation for a joint operation to the [[Gamma Quadrant]], K'men is sending [[Vishka]] to serve as an intelligence operative. * [http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/news/detail/1058910-season-5-dev-blog-%2326 Official Blog - Season 5 Dev Blog #26 (February 24, 2012)] ===Season 5 Dev Blog #27=== ;Prelude to ''The 2800: Facility 4028'' * Doctor [[Philia Fer]] of Starfleet Medical sends a series of messages to [[Franklin Drake]]. Fer has declined Drake's request for recordings of counseling sessions with the [[Female Changeling]] held at [[Facility 4028]]; later, the requested information is sent to Drake from an unknown source. Further, Doctor Fer is described as "no longer a concern," and it is suggested that she may be transferred to Elba II. * [http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/news/detail/1058900-season-5-dev-blog-%2327 Official Blog - Season 5 Dev Blog #27 (March 2, 2012)] ===Season 5 Dev Blog #30=== ;Prelude to ''The 2800: Boldly They Rode'' * In a personal log, Captain [[James Kurland]] mourns the death of [[Karen Andrews]] and prepares to lead the {{USS|Defiant}} on its mission to retake Deep Space 9, with the cooperation of the Female Changeling. * [http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/news/detail/1058870-season-5-dev-blog-%2330 Official Blog - Season 5 Dev Blog #30 (March 9, 2012)] ===Season 6 Dev Blog #8=== ;Reports from the Nukara System * A series of log entries by the Second Officer of the S.S. ''Mauss'' details the vessel's monitoring of the relatively primitive Nukaran culture inhabiting Nukara IV. As time passes, the crew of the ''Mauss'' discover that there are interphasic rifts on [[Nukara Prime]]. Eventually, [[Tholian]] ships are detected; anticipating being discovered and destroyed, the Second Officer encodes the data collected thus far. The wreckage of the ''Mauss'' is later discovered by the U.S.S. ''Alliance,'' which recovers the encrypted data. * [http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/news/detail/1047640-season-6-dev-blog-%238 Official Blog - Season 6 Dev Blog #8 (June 27, 2012)] ==Season Six: Under Siege== ===Season 7 Dev Blog #6=== ;Chaos in Romulan Space * The [[Federation]] News Service reveals that in the aftermath of Empress [[Sela|Sela's]] disappearance, fighting has broken out on multiple [[Romulan]] colony worlds.
