Temporal starships used by the Federation in the Battle of Procyon V in 26th century.
The Temporal Operative tree.
Temporal Operatives can manipulate the fabric of reality to turn probability and causality on its head, shifting the tide of battle in their favor.
The Temporal Operative Specialization is a Primary Captain Specialization released with Agents of Yesterday. Temporal Operatives lean heavily on Exotic Damage and Kit Module abilities, befitting their roots as a science-heavy specialization.

Any Tactical, Engineering or Science Bridge Officer can be trained in Temporal specialization by using the [Specialization Qualification - Temporal Operative]. Said item is unlocked for crafting in the Officer Training R&D School once 10 points have been spent in Temporal Specialization, or may be purchased from the Exchange.
Common Temporal Operative Bridge Officers can also be purchased from Bridge Officer Requisition Officer for a modest dilithium fee.
Three Very Rare Jem'Hadar Vanguard Bridge Officers from the Gamma Vanguard Pack are trained in all specializations, including Temporal Operative. Mission “Beneath the Skin” rewards a Very Rare Elachi Engineering/Temporal Operative Officer.
Bridge Officer Abilities[]
Entropy meter
Temporal Operatives use their understanding of temporal mechanics to cause subtle fluctuations in localized causality, primarily manifesting in the form of a mechanic known as Entropy which they generate on foes, then consume to improve subsequent effects.
Most of the Temporal Operative BOff abilities can be classified as either a Builder or a Consumer, depending on whether they increase Entropy or consume it. Using the Builder abilities, you can apply to each foe up to a maximum of five (5) applications of Entropy. Activating the Consumer ability will consume all of the Entropy applied to the foe, increasing the damage output of the ability.
Space Abilities[]
Builder
|
Channeled Deconstruction |
| +1 Entropy every 2 sec
Focus entropic energies into your foe's hull over time, gradually causing more and more physical damage as the ship rapidly decays. | |
|
Chronometric Inversion Field |
| Each sec, 15% chance: +1 Entropy to all foes inside the Field
By upsetting the balance of localized space-time, you can generate a field that will reduce the speed and damage of opponents caught within it, while dealing physical damage to their hull. | |
|
Entropic Cascade |
| +1 Entropy to Primary Target if no valid Secondary Targets
Inflict a slow-acting decay on your primary target which will periodically cascade out to other allies of your primary target. If no other enemies are near the primary target, additional Entropy will build up on the primary foe. | |
|
Heisenberg Amplifier |
| +1 Entropy
Amplify aspects of the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle in localized space-time, in order to randomly move matter and space on a macro scale. This effect also generates synaptic disruptions that will Confuse the crews of affected starships. | |
|
Recursive Shearing |
| +2 Entropy
Creates a localized causal paradox, centered on the firepower being directed at an enemy ship. While present, the phenomenon will 'store' a portion of all incoming damage directed at that foe. Upon expiration, all of that 'stored' damage will be instantly reapplied to the foe as a physical burst. | |
|
Shared Fate |
| Each sec, 10% chance: +1 Entropy
Create a resonant tachyon failure that weakens and drains nearby enemy shields. These effects will become stronger with each affected foe. |
Consumer
|
Gravimetric Conversion |
| Removes all Entropy from affected Foes; Entropy increases Shield Restoration/Drain
Send out a burst of gravimetric distortion that will simultaneously drain the shields of nearby foes while restoring your own. The amount of restoration to self is increased by hitting more targets. | |
|
Rapid Decay |
| Removes all Entropy from target; Entropy increases duration
Trigger a rapid aging of the targeted foe's components and resistances, dealing physical damage over time and weakening their resistance to all sources of damage. | |
|
Timeline Collapse |
| Removes all Entropy from targets; Entropy increases damage and Disable effect
Initiate a violent rupture into an alternate timeline, causing a turbulent instability of local space-time. Enemies caught in the resulting anomaly will be pulled towards its center for a few seconds before it collapses. Upon collapsing, the resulting explosion will deal physical damage as well as briefly disable affected foes. |
Other
|
Causal Reversion |
| Restores Hull based on number of Foes within 10km afflicted with Entropy
Avoid the strict requirements of causality by retroactively preventing the hull lost from damage received in the past. This manifests as a hull heal in the present timestream. | |
|
Entropic Redistribution |
| Removes all Entropy from Primary Target; adds Entropy to all foes within 5km of Primary Target equal to amount removed
Manipulate the entropic energies already coursing around a targeted foe with the purpose of sending them out to other nearby foes. This action will cause a moderate amount of physical damage to the primary target. |
Ground Abilities[]
Builder
|
Causal Entanglement |
| Each sec, 10% chance: +1 Entropy to foes within 10m
Create a localized field of entropic decay that will weaken nearby foes' shields and damage resistances. These effects become stronger with each affected foe. | |
|
Chronometric Diffusion |
| Each sec, 10% chance: +1 Entropy to all Foes within the Field
By upsetting the balance of localized space-time, you can generate a field that will reduce the speed and damage of opponents caught within it, while dealing physical damage to them. | |
|
Degeneration |
| +1 Entropy when duration ends
Focus a quick burst of entropic energies onto the targeted foe, causing them to rapidly suffer physical damage over time which grows more intense with each tick. | |
|
Entropic Contagion |
| +1 Entropy to Primary Target if no Secondary Targets
Inflict a slow-acting decay on your primary target which will periodically cascade out to other nearby allies of your primary target. | |
|
Recursive Affliction |
| +2 Entropy
Creates a localized causal paradox, centered on the firepower being directed at a designated foe. While present, the phenomenon will 'store' a portion of all incoming damage directed at that foe. Upon expiration, all of that 'stored' damage will be instantly reapplied to the foe as a physical burst. | |
|
Uncertainty Burst |
| +1 Entropy
Amplify aspects of the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle in localized space-time, in order to randomly move matter and space on a macro scale. This effect also generates synaptic disruptions that will Confuse all affected targets. |
Consumer
|
Paradox Bomb |
| Removes all Entropy from targets; Entropy increases Damage and Pull effect
Initiate a violent rupture into an alternate timeline, causing a turbulent instability of local space-time. Enemies caught in the resulting anomaly will be pulled towards its center for a few seconds before it collapses. Upon collapsing, the resulting explosion will deal physical damage as well as briefly disable affected foes. | |
|
Temporal Narcosis |
| Removes all Entropy from target; Entropy increases duration
Trigger the creation of microscopic disruption of space-time within the bloodstream of the targeted foe, dealing physical damage over time and weakening their resistance to all sources of damage. | |
|
Tachyonic Conversion |
| Removes all Entropy from affected Foes; Entropy increases Shield Restoration/Drain
Send out a burst of gravimetric distortion that will simultaneously drain the shields of nearby foes while restoring your own. The amount of restoration to self is increased by hitting more targets. |
Other
|
Chronoplasty |
| Restores Hit Points based on number of Foes within 15m afflicted with Entropy
Avoid the strict requirements of causality by retroactively preventing the health lost from damage received in the past. This manifests as a heal in the present timestream. | |
|
Spread Decay |
| Removes all Entropy from Primary Target; adds Entropy to all foes within 15m of Primary Target equal to amount removed
Manipulate the entropic energies already coursing around a targeted foe with the purpose of sending them out to other nearby foes. This action will cause a moderate amount of physical damage to the primary target. |
Temporal Starships[]
The following playable starships can be classified as Temporal Starships:
Molecular Reconstruction[]
Temporal Starships are capable of making subtle alterations on the molecular level through the use of Molecular Reconstruction.
This technology allows the starship to assume 1 of 3 different Configurations: Offensive, Defensive and Support. Additionally, the player may choose to have no active Configuration. Each Configuration has its own strengths and weaknesses.
Once the meter is full, Molecular Reconstruction Beam becomes available for use.
Offensive Configuration
Defensive Configuration
Support Configuration
Defensive Configuration
Support ConfigurationEach of the Configurations generates their own specific counter. A ship may have up to 6 Configuration Counters at a time. After reaching 6 counters, any additionally generated ones will be lost. These counters are used to fuel Molecular Deconstruction Beam:
Molecular Deconstruction Beam
Molecular Deconstruction Beam
Firing the Molecular Deconstruction Beam deals Physical Damage over time and disables the target, in addition to healing your hull over time. This power's damage scales with the number of Offensive counters consumed. Its Hull Healing scales with the number Defensive counters consumed. Lastly, its Disable duration scales with the number of Support counters consumed. Activating this ability will consume all Offensive, Defensive and Support Counters generated from Configurations.
Hybrid Seating[]
All Temporal Starships feature a Commander Temporal Operative Bridge Officer seat. Some of these ships feature an additional, lower ranking Temporal Operative BOff seating.
Other playable ships with Temporal Operative BOff seat[]
A large number of playable Tier 6 starships come with either an Ensign, Lieutenant or Lieutenant Commander Temporal Operative BOff seating. However, these ships lack the built-in Active Sensor Arrays, and are thus not considered to be Temporal Starships.
