Changes

===USS Dauntless, CA-1553===

After the events of the Gryphon, Moriarty was promoted to the position of Chief Science Officer which only encouraged him to get his mind properly seen to. He signed himself up for multiple Counselling sessions back on Starbase Bravo in an attempt to repair his mind. Captain Tokat was called back to his home planet with Ambassador Sanor and the Pegasus was decommissioned meaning whatever was left of its crew was to be transferred. After days of shore leave with nothing to do, Moriarty became bored and anxious to get back out on Active Duty. Thankfully it wasn’t long before he was called to the office of Captain Derrick Grant, who welcomed him aboard his ship, the USS Dauntless – an Avenger class vessel similar to Moriarty’s first assignment on the Ticonderoga. His only hope was that his time aboard the Dauntless would last a little longer.

Starting their newest assignment aboard the USS Dauntless alongside Moriarty were Commander Edward Gregg, Ensign Alaurien P’lonnos and Lieutenant Acenvar Crystillin – the latter now being a very good friend of his after helping him recover from his mental trauma on the Bridge of the Gryphon.

Before the crew of the USS Dauntless had the opportunity to jump into their mission, Anthony received word from Star Base Command that his brother, Jonathan had been killed in action. Unable to cope with the news at the time, Anthony deserted his post with Star Fleet and returned to Earth to stay upon the farm in Moneygurney, Ireland. At the time, Marie Fulton was still alive and present at the farm and despite not having any reluctance to allow Anthony to stay, there was tension between the two – he hadn't been in contact with her since he left the farm at 18 – not even when Ben, her son, died.
