Star Trek Eternity is a Play By Message Board (PBMB) Simulation (Sim) within the Federation Sim Fleet, a not for profit online gaming organization. It was created by FSF Gabe and is currently hosted by FSF Gabe and FSF Sail. Both hosts strive to create a creative enriching environment both mechanically and narratively. It is considered to be advanced with consideration to writing, plot movement, character development, and content instituting a quality over quantity; though, the story can move rapidly given opportunity and how involved writers are to go beyond the expected one post per week (Sunday to Saturday).
The Sim is known for pushing the boundaries of storytelling and PBMB mechanics, exploring darker themes of the human condition the content of which is mature and not for a younger audience; we are rated Adult by the FSF because of that expectation. The narrative imposes a Dynamic Story where characters determine the situation and the situation develops the character therein transformation and growth occurs that is perhaps not to a writer's initial plan but rather established out of consequence.
It is a challenge to write in, deliberately created to be writing intensive and go beyond simple designs for collaborative writing. In Star Trek Eternity you are given a universe to explore in, a character to live vicariously through. For those that accept the challenge put forth by the sim, Star Trek Eternity is highly rewarding.
