Professor Richard Moriarty is a Canadian-Bissau-Guinean professor of biochemistry at the University of Amílcar Cabral in Bissau, Guinea-Bissau.

His great disdain for caffeine led him to volunteer to assist Crimson Trump in enforcing the Orange Lid Act abroad in any way possible. After meeting with Bissau-Guinean President Umaro Sissoco Embaló, Moriarty pled with the US Ambassador to Guinea-Bissau to let him lead a battalion of "humanitarian aid" to remove coffee from the country. While The Gambia was Crimson Trump's priority, he accepted Moriarty's plea and gave him unilateral command of 50 soldiers to destroy cafes and ship coffee back to the United States for "destruction."

After the Coffee Coup of 2021, the Crimson Bean was destroyed and Jeffrey Meena assumed office as President of the United States. Meena nominally ended the enforcement of the Orange Lid Act as one of his campaign promises, but the high-ranking Gambian leaders of the initiative continued their operations with the support of Gambian President Adama Barrow, who had already banned coffee in the country in 2017. Moriarty's battalion lost funding in January 2021 and his soldiers went home. He wasn't finished with his mission. Fueled by a binge of homemade cocaine in his university laboratory, Moriarty destroyed tens of thousands of CFA Francs worth of equipment experimenting on himself. He sought to make himself a super-soldier, the ultimate weapon against coffee. He invented an injection of a solution of 90% Quercetin that, if injected every 4 hours, gave him extreme strength, rapid healing, and pain tolerance, a Pseudo-Fertile ability that he called "The Universe Is Yours."

He ran hundreds of miles barefoot from Bissau, Guinea-Bissau to Banjul, The Gambia and pled to Adama Barrow to let him join the Insurgent Narc Fighter’s League of 8. Barrow had been observing Moriarty's run from afar using the abilities of Mímir, and appreciated his resolve. There would have been 9 members of the "League of 8," so Adama ordered the group to murder their weakest member, Cute Lil' Cherub. Once the opening was made, Moriarty set out to achieve his destiny.

He and the INFL8 gang came into complications when the chaos of the Restoration of the Mages began.
