Bio: Lieutenant Dunsett was born in 2336 on Earth to a family of five. Growing up in Texas, he began racing old cars, then graduated to shuttles when he was 16. His mother and father were career Starfleet, and it was only natural that Dunsett join as well. He met a like mind in Liu Sikaro, both sharing the joke they were twins, brothers, cloned minds. They shared a few ‘adventures’ while at the Academy, but were separated after graduation when they each received different assignments. Dunsett was assigned third shift Navigation Officer of the USS Dorchester. After successfully guiding the ship through an asteroid minefield using thrusters and minimal impulse power, Dunsett was promoted to Chief Navigation Officer. He pursued a relationship with Tival, a Romulan-Vulcan science officer, but lost touch with her after her transfer to the USS Cleveland. Dunsett was transferred to the USS Utopia due to his ‘unique’ perspective on navigation.

Lieutenant Dunsett is a loyal friend, and hates to see the ‘new kid’ left out; he has a tendency to take the outsider under his wing, likely because he was the one left out back in Texas. He tends to enjoy NASCAR racing programs on the holodeck, and sometimes alters them with hovercars, even though that didn’t happen until the early 22^nd century.
