Star Trek: Phoenix-X is a fan fiction and parody series based in the late 24th century, with later spin-off stories in the early 25th century, centring around the crew of the Federation starship USS Phoenix-X and various other related starships and crews. The initial format of the series is chatfic, reminiscent of chat room archives. Of this style, stories are mainly written episodically (Episodes) with occasional variants in the same vein (Chapters, Specials, Flashbacks). The series later branches out into other formats such as prose (Literary) and comics.
Overview
Crew of the USS Phoenix-X.
The series started as role-playing fiction through instant messaging chats between its initial two writers within the first few episodes. It then grew into a role play through email, with larger sections of story alternated by each writer, per episode. Finally, by late Season 1, it grew into being written as full episodes themselves.
Star Trek: Phoenix-X takes place in the Prime universe and plays alongside, and with the history of, all canon series and movies involved: Star Trek: The Original Series, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Star Trek: Voyager, Star Trek: Enterprise and the films Star Trek: The Motion Picture to Star Trek Nemesis. It also includes prime universe events in Star Trek. In alternative licensed material, the series follows the Star Trek Online timeline, which include several pieces like The Path to 2409, The Needs of the Many, Star Trek: Countdown, Unexpected Honor and related stories.
Occasionally, in a soft-break of the fourth wall, characters will make passing references to alternative timelines they unexplainably, or absentmindedly, have awareness of; mostly the Star Trek (2009) alternate reality in Season 4. In "Displacement Syndrome", the crew actually visits some of these alternate timelines, most notably the Shatnerverse timeline.
Variants
Star Trek: Phoenix-X is primarily presented in episodic format with each story classified as "Episode". This is mostly true except for several variant classifications that emerge and eventually increase in frequency as the series goes on.
- Episode: the base style of story, written in chatfic, usually, the core characters being involved. Episodes are in the spirit of and given style of Star Trek episodes. In Season 5, Episodes are written in prose.
- Chapter: a variant Episode described as a long-form story. It is written in chatfic, with the core characters and is in the spirit and vein of the Star Trek films.
- Spin-off: an experimental first Episode of a series based on a ship, species or aspect from Star Trek: Phoenix-X. The stories are usually posted in parts, to comprise one Episode, some in chatfic, prose, varying from comedy to drama.
- Short: a separate fiction based on a ship, species or aspect from Star Trek: Phoenix-X. The stories are usually a one-off and written in prose.
- Special: a variant Episode which can be described as a short story. It is written in chatfic, with core or select characters. The Specials were initially "holiday"-themed until Season 4.
- Comics: sequential panels of art and story with select characters for each. Each series was classified as "Comics" with several comics numbered as "Comic" released. The comics varied in type and style from full page to comic strip, outlined to color.
- Flashback: a variant Episode that takes place in the past and is either a full "re-write" of a past episode, or contains parts of past episodes to tell a story. They are written in chatfic and original dialogue is not necessarily altered, but, instead, given additions as to keep series canon.
- Literary: a variant Episode that is written in prose format. These are Star Trek Online: Literary Challenge entries. They jump the timeline ahead to the early 25th century, and are written in the setting of Star Trek Online. The core Phoenix-X crew differs slightly. Entries also focus on crews of the IKS B'Cnah.
- Unofficial: a variant Episode that is written in prose format. These are Star Trek Online: Unofficial Literary Challenge entries. They continue the Literary setting in the 25th century, and are written in the setting of the Star Trek Online. Crew stories focus on ships in Task Force Epsilon and Galorda Defense Fleet.
- Ragnarok: variant spin-off episode taking place in 2410 with Oroku Seifer in command of the USS Ragnarok.
- Annual: variant spin-off episodes, monthly, with one crew-focus per year. These are Star Trek Online: Unofficial Literary Challenge Annual entries.
- Online: variant Episode based thematically on a season or event of Star Trek Online, posted in the Arc Forums.
- Trek BBS: regular contest entries every two months on the Trek BBS message boards using 24th century crew from the Phoenix-X.
- Remake: rewrites of the original chatfic-style Episodes now in prose.

Cut scenes
The cut scenes were akin to "deleted scenes" of a film/tv production, where blocks of text that didn't make it into the final cut of some episodes of Star Trek: Phoenix-X were collected separately.
Spin-offs
The spin-offs for Star Trek: Phoenix-X were experimental stories focusing on other ships' or other perspectives related, previously, or in the story itself, to the USS Phoenix-X. They were started around 2003-2004, unfinished, and re-integrated back into Star Trek: Phoenix-X in 2014. As reintegrates, the spin-offs continue as Parallel fiction.
- Star Trek: B'Chnah: A chatfic focusing on the crew of the IKS B'Cnah. Incomplete.
- Star Trek: Hijinx: A chatfic focusing on the crew of the USS Hijinx. Incomplete.

Background information
- The X in the series and ship name is a parody of its use elsewhere (i.e. "X-Men", "X-Files", "xXx (Triple X)").
- Some early episodes, like "Jello Cubes" or "Find Voyager?", were written over AOL chat for fun between the two writers. Episodes after that began in length through emails, with one writer writing one section of an episode and the other writing the next part. This continued until Episode 21 when one writer (Hawku) continued the series onward alone. Only two episodes in the second season involved the other writer (DL), "Afterdeath"; and "Omega", which was written solely by the other writer (DL).
- As the first episodes of the first season were role-play, characters Gotens (later renamed Seifer) was played by Hawku, and Daniel (later renamed Cell) was played by DL. Ensign Dan was an accidental creation, misunderstood, between authors, to be played by DL at the beginning (as "Dan", in the first scene of "The Tiloniam System" with Gotens on the shuttle). "Dan" was quickly re-written as "Ensign Dan". This led Ensign Dan to be constantly be written as "relieved of duty" in nearly every episode as an in-joke.
- Some noticeable external influences on the series' elements and names came from other series: Xena: Warrior Princess, Final Fantasy VIII and Dragon Ball.
- A few episodes have been direct crossovers.
- "Fight, Parts I, II & III" crossed over with Xena: Warrior Princess.
- "Alien Interference" was a more subtle crossover with Alien (Alien franchise).
- The crew of the Phoenix-X are still in their same ranks and assumed ages by 2410. This is explained in "Delta Recruit" and "Celestial Dynamics" when several starships are said to have been caught in a massive molecular reversion field, in 2404, intermixed with an ion storm, the result of which causes hundreds of Starfleet officers and people to undergo a reduction in age. The trauma from the accident also causes all included to temporarily lose years of memories, and, in most cases, causes everyone to re-take Starfleet Academy, graduating in 2409. Retaking the Academy coincides with in-game events within Star Trek Online.
- Several characters from the 25th century portion of the series share the same experiences from the video game missions of Star Trek Online. It is a soft-break of the "fourth wall" that they all are semi-conscious of this while interacting. The only differing experiences between characters are depicted through in-story from the Star Trek Online: Literary and Unofficial Literary Challenges.
- Episodes 89 to 91 were previously categorized as "Trek" instead of "Episode" and were switched over to "Episode" on May 31st, 2016. "Trek" episodes were previously labeled as: a variant Episode that is written in prose format and takes place in the same timeline as Episodes. These are named after The Trek BBS, where they are posted.
- The episode variants are sometimes restructured: Previously, the Valhalla variant episode "Sunrise" which was a literary transcribing of a Star Trek Online episode and centered around Admiral Cid in command of the USS Valhalla, was changed to the Online-type variant episode in 2021.
- Section 31 was never originally part of the beginning concept. The organization wasn't incorporated into the story and backstory until the second season. They were first mentioned by William Theseus in "Jumpers, Part I". Mission-givers Elena and Nelkast started as Theseus' assistants in the season three episode "Possible Regret" and didn't start giving missions as admitted Section 31 agents until the episode "Departments".
