Welcome to STF!
Step aboard and become part of a Star Trek role-playing community that has been telling stories together for more than 35 years.
Founded in 1991 on the Prodigy network, STF is one of the internet’s longest-running free Star Trek role-playing communities. Through every generation of Star Trek—and every era of the internet—we’ve continued to evolve while staying true to what brought us together in the first place: great characters, collaborative storytelling, and a shared love of exploring the final frontier.

Collaborative Storytelling
How do sims work?STF is a bulletin-board-style role-playing community, with every story written through posts on our boards. Each ship has a designated posting speed that sets the expected maximum number of days between posts, and some ships explore specialty themes or specific eras of Star Trek. Most ships have a designated Gamemaster who guides the main story, while crew members also create side sims and character-development threads. By writing together in their assigned roles, players build the story through character interaction, shared decisions, and clues provided by the Gamemaster. |
