Brandon Teale

About

Brandon is very smart, especially when it comes to electronics, virtual reality, and engineering. He's one of the best coders/hackers on Toise, though he doesn't exactly use this for good. His high intelligence often results in him becoming bored, and wanting a challenge- and the best way for him to satisfy these urges is through illegal means.

Brandon always has had a lack of empathy since he was young, not caring much for how most others felt in many situations except if he thought he could get something out of it. He rarely forms true connections and feelings for people past their potential use for him. He's quick thinking and when he puts his mind to something he's likely to succeed. He knows how to appear more honest to others, allowing him to more easily get people to believe he actually cares about them and manipulate them. He's very good at coming off as innocent or as a good person.

Brandon is more passive than the others in his group, though this doesn't mean that he isn't afraid to get into a fight when he deems it necessary. He's also the only one in his group who doesn't have any magical abilities.

He can be a bit clumsy sometimes and spends most of his time tinkering with random gadgets and electronics in his cell.

Trivia

• Currently resides in Zak's Jail alongside his criminal partners, Kin and Hiro.
• He made Kin's favourite 'weapon' since their incarceration- aka the electric spork.
• He also hacked more channels in on their TV; allowing them to view most, if not all, of the streams and channels available.

Background

Brandon came from a well-off family and was a straight A student, excelling especially in technologies. Due to his enjoyment with technology and his skill at it he was put into a lot of advanced courses and was expected to go on to create great things for Toise's future. However, his future took a turn that his parents weren't happy with.

When Brandon was 18 he was enrolled in an extensive schooling program for technology. He walked to and from school every day and his parents gave him a bit of money to use for lunch and anything else he might need, as he came from a very well off family. Normally he would have extra and give it back to his parents when he got home. However at some point, Brandon met Kin on his walks to and from school. They ended up getting into the habit of Brandon buying things off of Kin- goods or services and favours. Due to Kin's ability to steal and lie, Brandon could often get pretty much anything he wanted off of Kin for much cheaper than if he actually went out and bought it himself. The two eventually started hanging out and became good friends, but their negative tendencies influenced one another even more, eventually leading them to where they are now.

Before Brandon and Kin made a deal with Hiro, they lived by hacking, stealing and embezzling, all while Brandon continued his schooling and earned multiple degrees.

After becoming acquainted with Hiro and becoming even more serious criminals, the three were eventually caught and now reside in Zak's Jail.

Relationships

Kin Tyndale

Kin is Brandon's partner and best friend. The two go back far, having known each other since they were only teenagers. They're very used to being around one another and have separation anxiety when they're apart for too long. Kin is very protective of Brandon due to his lack of magical abilities.

Hiro Fyre

Kin and Brandon are currently in a deal with Hiro when the three were caught and imprisoned at Zak's Jail. Hiro doesn't really like the two very much and she barely manages to tolerate them- especially Kin. She's on slightly better terms with Brandon though.

Ember Tourrant

Ember is the guard assigned to Kin, Brandon and Hiro. Brandon is actually on decent terms with her due to his more calm and reasonable behaviour compared to his companions.
