Engineering Department

The Engineering Department functions as the shipboard technical backbone charged with maintaining systems, diagnosing failures, and executing high-risk drive operations. In the current scene, Engineering reacts as a unified unit to an abrupt, damaging communications surge—covering their ears, suffering a shipwide coms blackout, and becoming isolated from command. Their immediate behaviors emphasize collective technical focus, rapid sensory alarm, and the practical consequences of system-level threats: discovery and diagnostic insight are converted into vulnerability when communications die and key personnel are rendered unheard and physically endangered.
