Bailey Brinks is a supporting antagonist of the 4th chapter in the "Ghost" series.
Bailey was one of the terrorists employed by Evan Rogers to disable the phone lines at Rodrigo Plaza and help him steal $840 million in bearer bonds.
== Background ==
Born on June 18, 2016, in Austin Texas, Bailey grew up with Mara in a survivalist compound led by their overprotective and paranoid father, and there, he learned everything about telecommunications. At the age of 18, Mara recruited him into the White Viceroys and Evan saw potential in him and allowed him to become their main hacker.
Throughout his life, Bailey helped Evan with his goal of maintaining his group's dominance in the criminal underworld.
== Biography ==
Bailey arrived at the Rodrigo building in the Pagani Courier truck and went down to the phone junction box, which was located in the basement. He was manually disabling the phone lines until his sister Mara came and started up a chainsaw to cut the phone lines, despite Bailey's protests that he was not done yet. He halfway manages to patch up the last phone line before they are cut by Mara. Bailey glared at his sister as Mara merely walked away.
Bailey and Mara joined their comrades on the 30th floor when they took control of it. He guards Rodrigo's head executive Gil Marsh on the 34th floor as Evan asked for the code to the vault that contains $840 million in negotiable bearer bonds. After Evan kills Marsh for refusing to give him a code, he orders Bailey to dispose of the body but is sidetracked by a strange noise outside. Bailey and Mara went to investigate but found no one.
Later, when a fire alarm sounds off on the unfinished 32nd floor, Evan sends Bailey and 3 men to check it out. As Jay kills the 3 men, Bailey looks around the floor and tries to get the intruder to come out and join the others. Although Bailey promises not to hurt him, he fires his MP5 around the room to see where he is. However, he did not find him and Jay Roberts used a power saw to distract him, after which he pulled his Glock 17 and held it to Bailey's neck. Bailey asserted that Roberts won't hurt him because he is a guard and he has rules to follow. However, Jay and he get into a fight and Jay pushes him into the stairwell where they fall down the stairs. Jay breaks his neck by pushing his head into the metal steps as they tumble down, using Bailey's body to cushion the fall. Later, Jay puts a Santa hat from a mannequin onto his corpse, which he sets on a chair and uses a red permanent marker to write the words: "Now we have a machine gun. Ho Ho Ho". He is then discovered by his comrade Alex, who alerts Evan about his death. This enrages Mara, who had been called by Evan to be informed, and she vows to kill Jay to avenge her brother and tells her teammates that no one kills him but Mara herself.
