In his hero costume Brandon wears a similar polo shirt but with a pair of black jeans, a red coat, a black overcoat, a red hat, a red tie, and a pair of orange fade into yellow sunglasses. During school hours Brandon wears the standard U.A uniform of grey trousers and jacket, white polo shirt and a red tie but he keeps his sunglasses with him though they sit on his head. when in formal attire, Brandon can be seen wearing the same clothes for his casual attire but with a red tie and red waist coat. When his restriction level zero is released Brandon dawns a dark suit of armour with a black cape, he also has a sword by his side though it is always sheathed in it's scabbard.

## Personality

The only people that Brandon cares about more than his own life are Elyos, Anna and Malleus stating that they are like family. when his restriction level 0 is released Brandon acts cruel towards his enemies but kind and caring to his closest friends and the people he calls family, he has also started a relationship with Eclipse Sunstone adding her to his list of people he would protect with his life.

## History

born to pro hero: red jack, Brandon witnessed his brother's presumed death which sparked the small flame that would grow into the big fire of his dream to become a pro-hero. While walking home with Chen one day, they met Elyos on the streets and helped her in her true time of despair and the three made the promise to become pro-heroes together.

## synopsis

### **Entrance exam arc:**

Brandon is first introduced into the series proper, as one of three new classmates to be transferred to Aldera junior high along side Chen and Elyos which happened during the middle months of junior year. after being introduced to his class Brandon watched as every boy classmate minus himself, Chen, Katsuki and Izuku swarmed Elyos trying to get her number, after Chen's attempt to get his classmates away from their childhood friend, Brandon become visibly irritated by Katsuki calling him and his childhood friends 'canon fodder' and even bears his fangs which fasinated Izuku since he hasn't seen a mutation type quirk where the user still retains a human form.

## Abilities

**fighting style:** brandon's fighting style is combination of the passive abilities of his quirk and a combination of both boxing and kick boxing, the passive abilities which he relies on for his fighting style are his enhanced strength and agility.

**overall abilities:** Brandon scored fourth in the quirk Apprehension test narrowly making it past Elyos without his level 1 power restriction released. During the entrance exam he scored fourth, prioritising the safety of others and his friends rather than his own, scoring him a lot of rescue points and even released his power restriction level 1 to destroy one of the robots. During the U.A sports festival Brandon scored second but not without a fight, releasing his level 0 power restristion in his fight against bakugo.

**Enhanced strength**

**Enhanced durability**

**Enhanced speed**

**Enhanced agility**

**Enhanced stamina**

**Enhanced regeneration:** flesh, muscle, bone, as long as it not parts that he needs to live, the lost limb will re-grow. for instance if his hand is cut off, but the rest of his arm is still intact Brandon's hand will re-grow within the hour he lost it, however, if his entire arm is cut off, it will take 3 days max for his arm to fully re-grow. during the regeneration process Brandon has replacement to the part of his limbs he has lost which normally takes the appearance of a shadow with a red outline. even though his quirk let's him re-grow limbs he still feels the pain and has on some occassion's passed out due to the pain he's been inflicted with and it has it's limits namely his lungs, heart and head, according to Brandon should his heart or lungs are removed from his body or he's decapitated he'll perish, this ability is amplifed with each restriction level released, 1 makes it so Brandon can force an instant re-grow and level 0 allows instant re-grow however both take a toll on Brandon's stamina making him extremely tired when he reverts back to his base form.

**Enhanced senses namely sight and hearing**

**The ability to see in the dark**

**leadership skills:** Brandon has shown impressive leadership skills, from leading his friends to the places they got in the entrance exam to helping his team make to where the places they got to in the U.A sports festival

**crafting skills:** Brandon has made impressive pieces of tech, with his sunglasses being one of said pieces of tech

**musical skill:** give Brandon a trombone and he'll show you why he calls himself 'the king of the trombone' he has shown amazing musical skills in the fields of trombone, guitar and eletric guitar thanks to Jiro

**cooking skills:** below bakugo and elyos Brandon is one of class 1-A's best chefs, he's made mac & cheese that sent mina on 'a trip of flavour' as he said and he did the same thing with izuku when he made deku katusdon

**keen battle IQ:** Brandon's knowledge of fighting makes him tough to hit when compared with his enhanced agility, and if he is hit by an attack he barely feels it, topped with his observation he's able to find a weakness and exploit it

**keen observation:** Brandon's observation has lead him to rather accurate complimates to elyos, he's remarked she's the fastest coder in class 1-A, he's remarked she's abnormally flexible, he's remarked she falls shy in terms of battle prowess when compared to himself and chen but she's catching up and he's remarked that she's abnormally strong even saying he narrowly got fourth during the quirk apprehension test

**keen strategising skill:** Brandon's quick thinking outside the box has help him in many ways, even though he lost to bakugo in the sports festival he didn't just release his restriction level 0 at the start he wanted to test bakugo to see if he was worth of releasing his power restriction level 0

## quirk

vampire is a mutation type quirk that allow Brandon a whole slue of abilities which he has dubbed his "sub-quirks" due to them all having different quirk types to the one their all linked to.

### sub-quirks:

#### **Hypnosis:**

Brandon can hypnotise anyone by looking into the eyes of whoever he wants or by pointing one finger at their forehead with the former being his most used form of hypnosis during stealth missions as to not attract any unwanted attention.

#### **Levitation:**

Brandon's main form of long-distance travel, Brandon can float slightly off the ground.

#### **Shapeshifting:**

Brandon can change his look and form to whatever or whoever he wants just by thinking about wanting to be the animal or human, he can use partial shapeshifting where he changes a part of his body but he normally uses it when he releases his restriction level 1 and when it is released he normally uses it to turn one of his arms into a wolf head.

#### **Telepathy:**

Brandon can read the minds of whoever he has recently hypnotised if he is able to see that person, he can read their thoughts, Brandon mostly uses this ability to gather information in stealth missions.

#### **Telekinesis:**

Brandon can move things with his mind and he uses this in several diverse ways, ranging from lifting and moving falling or fallen Debris to creating a psionic shield capable of blocking the most destructive of quirks.

#### **Invisibility:**

Brandon can go completely invisible at will, allowing him to listen on villains to gather information without being seen this also allows Brandon to quickly escape enemies and get a tactical advantage. this "sub-quirk" is normally used in stealth missions to gather information along with intangibility

#### **Intangibility:**

Brandon can go completely intangible at will, allowing him to go through walls, take attacks just by letting it go through him and gather information without having to use hypnosis. This "sub-quirk" in stealth missions along with invisibility.

#### **shadow matter manipulation:**

Brandon has the ability to generate and manipulate something he calls shadow matter, one of it's primary uses is to generate a replacement limb if he's lost any and another use of it is a capture weapon for his enemies, Brandon has trained with this sub quirk which he inherited from his father a lot and has mastered it to the point it where it can be used on thought for his shapeshifting sub-quirk and techniques and it can be used with or without any restriction levels released.

#### **the Cromwell restriction system:**

the Cromwell restriction system is Brandon's restrants on his true power, Brandon has put 2 restrictions on his true power using this transformation type sub-quirk and for good reasoning with each of his 2 restriction levels released his sanity is lost to some degree. however, red jack soon reveals that there was a 3rd restriction seal placed on him and will only be allowed to release if it is needed. the reason why this sub-quirk is dubbed a transformation type quirk is because it automatically transforms Brandon into his restriction release forms so Brandon doesn't have to. Brandon has been told by red jack that this sub-quirk is an actual quirk since Brandon's body knew that it can't control all of his true power without going insane. With enough mastery of his quirk Brandon believes he can place restrictions on others but he hasn't learned to do that yet.

## equipment

**his sunglasses:** 'what you think these are for show,' Brandon's sunglasses allow him to look up information on a quirk mid-fight making it hard to catch him off-guard.

**his hero costume:** Brandon's hero costume makes it so his weakness of direct sunlight doesn't affect him in a fight, hand crafted his costume was made with highly durable and highly comfortable fabric and built in tech that makes it highly insulable and highly fireproof without making it lose it's durability and comfyness and as an added bonus it reflects any sunlight that lands on it.

## super moves

#### **shadow ensnare:**

shadow ensnare (影の罠 Kage no wana) is one of two techniques that uses Brandon's shadow matter manipulation sub-quirk, this technique ensnares (hence the name) his enemies in what can best described as a red version of black whip, this technique is Brandon's go to when he doesn't want to release a restriction level.

#### **midnight spears:**

midnight spears (ミッドナイトスピア Middonaitosupia) is one of two techniques that uses Brandon's shadow manipultaion sub-quirk,this technique has two modes it's cage mode and fight mode, this technique's cage mode requires Brandon to hit the ground with a stomp to send shadow matter towards his enemies, the shadow matter then spikes up rendering the enemy unable to fight since the spikes form in a cage like manner, this technique's fight mode is simple, Brandon manipulates shadow matter to make the blade of a spear over his hand for close range fights, this mode does have a ranged form which acts like a bladed grappling hook which gives him the advantage on the battlefield, this technique is Brandon's favourite move to use when he has his restriction levels released, level 1 for it's cage mode and level 0 for fight mode.

#### **crimson jab:**

crimson jab (真紅のジャブ Shinku no jabu) is one of Brandon's two jab based super moves, with this technique Brandon strikes an opponent with a jab a fast enough speed that it looks like it's the color crimson, the soul sorry enough to be hit with this attack gets sent flying, however this attack is normally used when Brandon's restriction level 1 is released.

#### **blood moon blade:**

blood moon blade (ブラッド・ムーン刃 Buraddo mūn Ha) is one of Brandon's two jab based super moves, this technique is similar to crimson jab (真紅のジャブ Shinku no jabu) however this technique varies, for instance Brandon literally turns his hand into a blade that looks like it's red and it's a slash instead of a jab, those unfortunate to recieve this attack not only go flying like the crimson jab technique but also are met with a slash before being sent flying, this attack is normally used when Brandon's restriction level 0 is released and for good reasoning.

#### **onigiri uppercut:**

onigiri upprcut (おにぎりアッパー Onigiri appā) is one of Brandon's punch based super moves, anyone caught on the recieving end of this attack is sent flying into the air before crashing into the ground.

#### **full moon blitz:**

full moon blitz (フルムーンブリッツ Furumūnburittsu) is Brandon's only kick based super move, anyone caught on the recieving end of this attack has their face kicked in multiple times.

#### **hellish blow:**

hellish blow (地獄のような吹くJigoku no yōna fuku) is one of brandon's punch based super moves and along with blood moon blade (ブラッド・ムーン刃 Buraddo mūn Ha) a move used only when Brandon has released restriction level 0, anyone caught on the recieving end of this blow will feel like their stomach was destroyed and cough up blood while being sent flying.

#### **dark domain:**

dark domain (ダークドメイン Dākudomein) is a technique that Brandon created to use his dark matter manipulation more this attack surrounds both the user and target in a spherical area of shadow matter, here no one other than other users of shadow matter manipulation can interact with the spherical room or furthermore deactivate it. inside the domain, Brandon can catch his enemy off guard and render them unable to attack, this technique was originally created by his brother but Brandon made it a capture technique to honour his brother naming it after the first attack Johnathan had made an attack name for. this technique is used when Brandon has released restriction level 1 but can be used with no restriction levels released or level 0 released.

## Trivia

Brandon normally drinks ketchup to maintain his strength because of his quirk, but he does eats stuff that isn't red.

Brandon has 2 restriction levels; his restrant level 1 which allows him his partial shapeshifting and restrant level 0 which increases his strength and speed 10 fold while also granting the abilities of restrant level 1.

Brandon has an allergy to garlic because of his quirk.

Brandon normally uses different pharses to release his restriction levels, for level 1 he normally uses a simple quote which he has named 'the bird of hermes' where for level 0 he uses a more complex quote which he has named 'a moonlit walk'.

Anyone who has heard Brandon use the phrase to release his level 0 restriction have been considered lucky by Brandon himself as he releases this restriction level when he feels that his opponent is worthy enough, when he feels like the fight is going on for too long and the enemy isn't worthy of hearing him use the phrase to release his level 0 restriction he normally releases level 1 which he releases more often than not.

Brandon chose his hero name to be Talmai because even though he is an atheist, the name has a nice ring to it.

Brandon has the nickname of Bb due to Elyos thinking it would be a good nickname.

Brandon's final restriction seal has never been released but Brandon has been told that it's strength and speed is 20x level 0's night time amount but with this final restriction seal Brandon's strength and speed is like this during the day and night with his base form intelligence making him unstoppable but it does make Brandon pass out after usage, Brandon dubbed this seal to be called restriction level hellsing.

Restriction level hellsing's form is dubbed 'angel of darkness', in this form Brandon dawns a deep black jacket and jeans with a white polo shirt and red tie, Brandon gains a pair of gloves that are pure white with a red pentagram in two circles surrounding the pentagram with writing around and inside the circles. In this form, Brandon regains all his sanity as if he never released any restriction levels.

While Brandon's restriction level 1 needs authorization by Brandon to be released, level 0 and hellsing does not since they are always authorized but not used as much.

Brandon tests his enemies to see if their worth the trouble of releasing restriction level 0, if not then he just releases restriction level 1.

Brandon's wolf head for an arm transformation has been mastered to the point of it becoming his familiar, which he has named Baskerville, it's gotten to the point where Brandon can call upon Baskerville as a wolf on a lead made of shadow matter in his base form, but in this form Baskerville is free to do whatever he wants and often drags Brandon chasing a squirrel.
