Erik Pressman was a Human male who served as a Star Fleet officer in the mid-24th century.
He served aboard the USS Zhukov, under Captain D'Emilio, prior to gaining command of USS Pegasus (NCC-53847, Sakharov subclass surveyor).[1]
At some time in 2358, Pressman began testing an interphase cloaking device, a device made illegal by the Treaty of Algeron. Upon learning of this, a large number of the crew attempted to relieve Captain Pressman of his duties. A few other officers from other parts of the Pegasus joined Pressman and escaped in pods. Shortly after leaving, the remaining Pegasus crew tried to shut down the cloaking device, causing an explosion which killed them and made it appear that the Pegasus was destroyed. After the escape, Pressman swore the "loyalist" officers to secrecy and refused to reveal the truth to Star Fleet investigators. The Judge Advocate General decreed that a mutiny took place on board the Pegasus and recommended further investigation, but the report instead was quietly buried.[2]
Notes
- As a vice admiral, he is likely to be a PC character in some role. At the relevant time, categorize him by his rank (rather than as an historical character).
