USS Aventine

The USS Aventine (NCC-82602) is a Federation starship in service in the late 24th century. As of 2381 it is under the command of Captain Ezri Dax.

2380
The Aventine was fitted to serve as a testbed Starship for the Quantum slipstream drive in late 2380. 

2381
The Aventine saw her first combat action against the Borg during the invasion of Acamar. During the battle the Commanding Officer and the Executive Officer were both killed, leaving Ezri Dax in command of the ship. One week after the battle Starfleet officially promoted Dax to Captain and gave her command of the Aventine.

The Aventine was then sent to the Gamma Quadrant to investigate salvage the remains of the Columbia. This was, however, cut short when the ship was reassigned to defend Trill from the Borg. During the operation two of the Aventine's security personnel, who were accompanying the salvage team, were found dead. An investigation revealed the cause of the death to be a Caeliar, who also managed to board the Aventine, where he caused additional deaths. After an attempt to steal a shuttlecraft failed, the Caeliar confessed to Captain Dax that he had not caused the deaths on purpose. 

The Aventine later continued on its mission finding a series of Subspace tunnels. The Aventine entered into the tunnels and was taken to the Azure Nebula. Upon arrival the Aventine rescued the Starship Enterprise from Borg attack.
