Elliott Parks

Along with David Turner, Elliott Parks has been instrumental in the design, conception and eventual implementation of the ATAF project.

 

Early Life

Parks' career within the CSN has been highly successful and he rose through the ranks quickly, attaining the rank of commodore faster than any one else in the Navy's history. He was largely mentored by both Admiral Turner and Anthony Hawke, whom he considered to be a close friend. Despite his swift progress through the ranks and great responsibilities, he sometimes feels that he is a fraud and not fully prepared for the tasks laid out before him. He masks his own self doubt well against all but Turner, who remains confident that Parks is far more capable than he believes. Parks' focus on his career has so far led him to never find love, something the Admiral has been keen to make a point of recently.

 

The Honour of the Knights [Toggle Spoilers]

Parks requested that Simon Dodds should rejoin naval service when he needed a team to participate in the ATAF project. It was not a popular decision with the other senior command, by they permitted him to do so, nonetheless.

Parks was one of the few that was fully aware of the very real threat that both the Confederation and the Independent Worlds would soon be facing from the Pandoran forces, and in response to this he chose to intercept to take back CSN Dragon the moment it was found to be travelling around Independent World space.

He was captain of Griffin when the carrier suffered a mis-jump and found itself drifting in Imperial space. The accident proved to have its advantages and Parks was faced with the somewhat difficult decision of sending the White Knights to Arlos Starport to retrieve the stolen ATAF blueprints. Despite its crippled state he was able to defend Griffin from Ifrit when Hawke and Zackaria used it to attack them, by issuing the remote shutdown codes against the stolen carrier.
