## Biography

### Early Life

Not much is known about Bradley's early life, though it's assumed he was born sometime around the year 1800, to unknown parents. His family is also majorly unknown, though he seems to be an only child. His children, Brianna, Zac, and Benjamin mirror his and Zara's initial pattern, with his initial repeated twice. More is known about Bradley's later life, when he joined the **F.A.A.S.** and his story begins.

### F.A.A.S. Membership

Bradley was known to be one of the first F.A.A.S. members when it was created, possibly because of his good friendship with **John Reames**, who was assumed to have joined because of **Alice Dean** and her father **Alan**, the founders of the society. He was also known to be good friends with **Makayla Evans**, John's eventual wife, and **Zara Hamilton**, his eventual wife. It is unknown if Bradley was good friends with any other society members, and when most of the F.A.A.S. fled, he was assumed to be among them.

### Bradley and Zara

During the First Archenoe War, having met through the F.A.A.S., Bradley and Zara fell in love. They married earlier than John and Makayla, seen through Zac's older sister Brianna, though the date is unknown. Sometime before **1927** would be a good gander, as that was the year before Zac was born. It is also assumed that Zara became pregnant with Brianna quickly, much like most of the couples during the War, as they didn't know whether they would live to see the rest of it. Zac was born soon after the Archenoes' demise, and due to their affiliation with the F.A.A.S., Narim swore revenge by eventually taking their first son. Not knowing what to do, as Brianna and Benjamin were still Normals, Bradley and Zara had no choice but to turn away their son.

### Bradley and Zac

Zac's relationship with his parents is somewhat strained, as they turned him out of the house when he was Bitten, though they do all they can to make it up to him at the beginning of Blue Fighters III. They all show extreme joy when they are reunited with Zac at the end of Blue Fighters II, and the Williams and the Evans families develop an incredibly close relationship because of Nikki and Zac's close friendship, and eventually Brianna and Matthew's marriage. However strained their relationship was, Zac shows extreme remorse when both Bradley and Zara are killed in Blue Fighters III, much like Jenna in the sense that he just got them back only for them to be taken from him.

### The Second Archenoe War

As the majority of their family are Normals, Bradley and Zara do caution them about the ongoing War, but don't take the proper security measures they probably should have taken. As Zac is majorly working for the F.A.A.S. and Alice Davis, he doesn't see his family often, only when he asks them whether he should take on the job. They agree, and it is one of the last times Zac sees them. He is shown to be grieving Bradley's death many years after, as long as the rest of his family's deaths.

## Relationships

### Zara Williams

**Zara Williams** (née Hamilton) was Bradley Williams's wife. They were both members of the F.A.A.S., along with many of their close friends, and fell in love during the First Archenoe War. Not much is known about the beginning of their relationship, though it seems it was fast and passionate, as they married and had Brianna soon after. The final battle occurs when Zara is pregnant with Zac, and Narim swears vengeance because of their allegiance to the F.A.A.S. Bradley and Zara are assumed to have a very good relationship, as their bodies were found together in the same room. Though Zac's departure put a lot of strain on their marriage, they managed to get through it, and were overjoyed to get their son back.

### Brianna and Benjamin Williams

Contrary to John and many of the other F.A.A.S. members, Bradley had a very good relationship with his daughter and youngest son. Zac leaving put a lot of grief on their family, so their bonding together shows how close they were. They waited and prayed for their brother to return, and were excited when he did. Bradley was loving and caring, and did whatever it took to protect his children, even if it meant giving his life.

## Trivia

* Zac's middle name, Bradley, is after him, though originally Zac's middle name was Brandon. As such, Bradley could have been named Brandon.
* Zac always says he regrets not having a better relationship with his parents, Bradley especially, as Zara was the stricter of the two.
