The UNSC Ariadne is a UNSC patrol ship in service with the UNSC Navy after the Human-Covenant War commanded by Commander Pasquale.[1]
Background
In January 2553, the Ariadne experienced complications and was forced to drop out of slipspace near Venezia. Commander Pasquale made contact with the colony, asking for permission to land nonessential personnel for safety reasons. Venezia refused to comply with the request. After their refusal Commander Pasquale sent a databurst, containing a video transmission showing the ship's pennant code ident and asking Earth for help with a technical problem their engineers were having.[1] Two days later the ship was still undergoing heavy repairs, the UNSC Monte Cassino had arrived to take off the ship's nonessential crew, perhaps abandoning the ship all together.[2]
Trivia
In Greek mythology Ariadne was the daughter of King Minos of Crete, she helped the Greek hero, Theseus, defeat the Minotaur.
