## Personality

Due to being abandon by his mother, he yearns for a family member to bond with, hoping to make happy memories with. He is a very kind boy, as he wanted to save Hasty despite being trash and not wanted. He also felt embarrassed to be called "master." After meeting Hasty, he felt the most joy in his life; finally found someone to call family. When succumbing to the infection, he felt no regrets of being with Hasty as he wish to not feel abandon was fulfilled.

As an infected, initially, he was able to keep his sanity shortly, growling at the other infected to not harm Hasty. Soon his mind reverted to like all other zombies. He was feral, killing and eating alive rat and being violent towards Hasty. However, for unknown reason, he began retaking his sanity but partially. His mind became more of a child who could not defend himself. Overtime, he seems to recover most of himself, and act like a human once more. During the massacre, he wants to somehow save everyone, much like Hasty's determination.

## Background

"Briant" was the last name that Dorothy Crawford gave, in memory of her own son who passed away.

## Plot Overview

### Past

#### Navil & Dorothy

When he was five years old, his single mother abandons him. Thus, he starves for food and shelter. He tried to visit Erica for help which she wanted to but her parents rejected him. At some point after, Navil finds food inside a home and eats it; finding Dorothy. They live together as Navil is cleaning the room as payment for letting him sleep and have food. During Christmas, Navil prepares as he created a Christmas card and wearing a cute outfit for Dorothy but finds her gone. He leaves to find Dorothy fainted in the snow. He was taken back to home but had fallen ill or tired. Dorothy wakes up and sees the fainted Navil and is alarmed (presumably reminded of her son's death). Navil tells her that he wanted to give her a Christmas card as thanks for being with him. They went back safe and sound and celebrated Christmas. Later, Dorothy picks herself up and adopts Navil, giving him a bank account and a last name "Briant."

## Abilities

As a regular human, he doesn't have any abilities besides being a good artist. However, as an infected, he has all of the traits of a creature such as not needing to eat as much as a normal human. More specifically, Navil's cells have a specific gene sequence that can suppress the P-flu cells. Thus, his intellect was restored to a point. In addition, he is capable of suppressing other infected by biting them. It seems that part of that gene suppression sequence gets transferred, allow the infected to recover fully or partially.

## Trivia

* The author didn't think too much of creating Navil's name. However, he thinks that the name is cute.
	+ His name is actually, "Neville Briant," in Korean. This was also noted in the official English Translation. This means that his name "Navil" in Official is English is wrong. However, this is not changed despite the official translation acknowledged the Korean writing.
		- However, in a special episode with Dorothy and Navil, there was an English name that says Navil instead of Neville in the official Naver. It is not clear if "네빌" means Navil, or Neville, or both.

* When Briant was shown, readers were confused if he was the same person as Navil Briant. The author clarified that both were two different people.
* Initially, Navil would had a father named "Albert Croucher," who is now Dorothy Crawford. He was also not out of money.
* Despite being a deuteragonist (or main supporting character), he became mostly a mascot character as his cute zombie appearance and cute zombie sounds contribute to that.
* He has one bank account and has a total of 1,500,000 marks. It is not clear how much it is worth but is apparently not enought to buy a cheese burger. Before, he had 5,000,000 marks when he got his account.
* His ID is EU315857AU.
* Since the P-Influezna started earlier than 1970 in the alternate dimension of Housekeeper shown in the "Marco's Travel to Multiverse," then it would mean he was a lot more younger than his main counterpart.
