» Brandon is obsessed with food even though he can't cook. His favorites include: barbecue of any kind, pies of the fruit variety (though his favorite is Maple Sugar Cream,) and orange starburst.

» Out of his love for food comes his health routine. He goes to the gym excessively and runs an average of five miles a day. Running is non-negotiable. Jujitsu and Krav Maga are his preferred combat training of choice and though he has specific certification for work, he has practiced Jujitsu for eight years and Krav for thirteen. He does not advertise either.

» Despite his more serious nature, Brandon loves a good prank. He tries to surround himself with those who can both handle and dish back practical jokes.

» Brandon is a high functioning alcoholic with an occasional penchant for prescription drugs and cocaine, both of which he is not dependent on and has mostly tapered off of. While he realizes that the behavior is hypocritical, the stress of work needs something to take the edge off

» He lives on impulse the majority of the time in his personal life. A hedonist to the excessive degree -- food, sex, and the pursuit of pleasure oftentimes take precedence over all else.

» Though he has an explosive temper, he has an extremely long fuse. It is difficult to make him angry, but once he is to that point it is difficult to get him to forgive

» Raised Catholic, he participates in mass and confession only when absolutely necessary having lost the majority of his faith after being gunned down.

» Though Brandon is not very forthcoming about his feelings, he is both very generous and loyal to those he loves. Gifts are ways to express what he cannot say and while he is trying to be better about putting things into words, he really does love finding gifts for people.

» Not much of a sentimentalist, he has very few trinkets or pictures that mean much to him. A small collection reside on his desk at work and the other, more personal, are in a storage unit. He does this out of paranoia more than necessity.

» Brandon has been a detective for eleven years (on the force for fourteen) and discharged his firearm four times during the course. Two of them resulted in casualties but the police will neither confirm nor deny this fact.

»He has been an undercover officer for ten of the eleven years as a detective, this is why he does not participate in social media though he'll always claim that he has a technological deficiency, which is true.

»He drives a '68 black impala that he purchased at an auction for impounded vehicles in the summer of 2016. This replaced a car of the same make that he crashed the year before under curious circumstances.

»His favorite all time film is Bullit, favorite album of all time is Empyrean Isles, and his favorite book is The Gargoyle by Andrew Davidson.

»He loves both the Celtics and the Patriots despite being a New York resident.

»He plays trumpet, specifically jazz but not for anyone but himself. If asked, he'll always say he doesn't play an instrument.
