Landon Brooks

Landon grew up as part of the notorious Brooks family. His father Bertie was a well-known criminal. Bertie was sent to prison when Landon and his sister Eileen were teenagers. Landon then made the controversial decision to join the police, something which was always resented by his mother Ariella.
== Arresting Raul and Meeting Jamie ==
Landon was summoned to arrest Alissa-May Myrick for the murder of Raul Ginter. Raul's cousin and housemate at the time, Jamie Landgraab found comfort in Landon and the two began a fling. When Jamie discovered she was pregnant with Landon's baby, she planned to abort it. However, Ariella and Eileen had moved in and were forcing Jamie to keep it. Jamie reluctantly agreed but cut ties with Landon, promising to give the baby over once it had been born.
== New Life in Willow Creek ==
Landon, Ariella and Eileen then moved to Willow Creek. Kian Brooks was born and given to Landon. He tried to make amends with Jamie but she had moved on and was back with her ex-husband Shane Landgraab. Landon was saddened to hear that Bertie had died in prison, and said goodbye to Ariella as she, too, died of old age. Landon raised Kian alone as Eileen moved away to marry Kale Marcus. Landon helped raise Kian's two daughters when they were born, Tabatha and Audra.
== A Lonely Depression ==
He grew lonelier and lonelier and realised Jamie was his one true love. Upon trying to reach out, however, Landon was heartbroken to discover she had died of old age unexpectedly. He felt he had wasted his chance to make amends and fell into a lonely depression. He married Anna Wilburn, but struggled to find a genuine connection with her. He found comfort in Kian's wife Tia, who felt neglected by Kian's selfishness and secrecy. Shockingly, Landon and Tia slept together in a night of passion. Immediately regretting the decision, the two decided to withhold the truth forever. Landon was shocked to later learn Tia was pregnant and tried to convince himself the baby belonged to Kian, but learnt he was the father.
== The Affair Reveal ==
Landon had a tense conversation with a heavily-pregnant Tia about his inability to keep the truth to himself much longer. He was shocked to later learn Audra had overheard their conversation and told Kian. Kian tested Landon and eventually revealed he knew the truth, beating up his father and kicking him out of the Brooks house in disownment. Landon disappeared into the darkness, heartbroken and alone.
== Reconciliation Attempt ==
When Landon was much older, he reached out to his grown up son Guy, who was reluctant to respond. Landon was unable to meet with Guy, so befriended his housemate Ethan Rockwell as a tactic to get into the apartment. The plan was successful and Guy was able to enter the apartment - he found Guy but was at a sudden loss for words, facing awkward encounters with other housemates Tia and Audra. Landon struggled to forge a bond and felt a great amount of guilt for the fact he never reached out. Eventually, however, Landon and Guy bonded as father and son and things were looking up. Suddenly, however, Landon collapsed and died of old age beside Guy just as their relationship began to form.
