FNS Serenity

FNS Serenity (Ship Number: 456A13M1) is a Zarion-Class Flagship that entered service with the Federation Navy in 22 BEW as a response to the Cybros starships which had been significantly more technologically advanced compared to the human warships.

The Serenity had begun construction prior to the Cerberus Galactic Conflict as a symbol of the Federation Navy while operating as the front line flagship of the navy should another Avaxius Insurgency erupt. However, this was not the case as when the Galactic Conflict broke out, Shallworth Military Industries was hard pressed by the Federation Council to bring it into service. Despite their haste the Zarion-Class callsigned Serenity would not enter the war until seven years later.

Though the Serenity was late to the conflict, it proved to be a powerful foe for the Cybros starships. The Zarion-Class within its first month of entering service recorded 16 Cybros starships destroyed, compared to the average human warship at the time which would be lucky to get 2 or 3 kills.

In 24 BEW, the FNS Serenity was one of the ships stationed at the Federation's capital world of Ra'dam during the invasion of the Cybros Dominion which resulted in the Fall of Ra'dam, despite this the Serenity was able to escape and link up with the Federation First Fleet. Before they were able to travel to the Orisa System where former Federation Councilor Vance Thaddeus would be awaiting them, the fleet was engaged by Titan Corporation ships. The Serenity in a daring attempt to save the fleet, stayed behind as the rest entered FTL. Afterwards the Serenity entered FTL on random coordinates in which the Titan Corp Fleet followed. They arrived at the center of the Cerberus Galaxy at one of the Proto-Planets known as Object A-145X.
