The UNSC Midsummer Night (Hull Classification Symbol FFG-209) was a United Nations Space Command Light Frigate[1]. Prior to his promotion to Captain in 2552, Lieutenant Jacob Keyes served aboard this frigate, and later transferred to the UNSC Iroquois, a destroyer.[2]
This ship was equipped with stealth ability by ONI, in exchange for help with a special mission. The frigate had it rough from the start. During her shakedown mission of enforcing the Cole Protocol on civilian ships, some of her compliment ODST’s were caught in an Insurrectionist trap that resulted in over 20 WIA/KIA. From there, she gave support to ONI operatives on Charybdis IX that were trying to root out the source of some black market plasma weapons. A UNSC Pelican pilot lost his life to rebel rockets. From there, Midsummer Night followed an Insurrectionist ship to a structure know as the Rubble. The ship attempted to stealth its way through the Insurrectionist structure. Unfortunately, one of the bridge members was an Insurrectionist sympathizer, who wounded several officers and fatally wounded Commander Zheng before being shot by her own gun. Before she died, she sabotaged the ship and alerted the Rubble to the ship's presence. The ship was soon taken by the rebels. It is unknown how many soldiers died in this battle.
Later, the ship would be taken back by Lt. Jacob Keyes with the help of the Rubble AI, Juliana, who saw the UNSC presence as the only way to save the citizens under her charge. Keyes and the surviving bridge crew would then use the ship to deploy Gray Team and its ODST’s onto the Covenant city of Redoubt and its two nearby AA guns in order to open the city to a bombardment. Several ODST’s died in the attempt, but the mission was completed.
From there on out, the ship was used to guard the habitat Exodus while it fled to the relative safety of UNSC controlled space. The ship was damaged in the effort, but was able to make it back and received repairs.
Trivia
- The name is a reference to A Midsummer Night's Dream, a play by William Shakespeare.
