Brandon Logan Mason

"How can you say he's evil, that we're evil, when you're the ones who are hating and judging us for just being who we are..."

- Brandon Mason

Appearance
Brandon is 5 ft 7 inches tall, slightly taller than Carlos, but shorter then Justin and Chris. Brandon has short brown hair which has a hint of blond; it always looks as if he just rolled out of bed because the static electricity around Brandon makes his hair impossible to control. He has a scar on the left side of his forehead; the scar runs parallel to his eyebrow. He has a tattoo of two lines on his left arm just below his elbow. Brandon usually wears loose clothing, sometimes just a t-shirt and jeans, but in battle he sometimes wears a red cloak on top of his usual attire. Brandon is fond of Vans sneakers and is always seen wearing them. He never takes off his wedding ring, until Carlos' death when he starts wearing both his and Carlos' ring around his neck on a necklace which joins the Silver Fang necklace which Carlos normally wore up until his death.

Distinguishing Marks
Brandon has a scar just above his left eyebrow and one tattoo, two lines that encircle his arm, just below his left elbow.

Character
Brandon is almost the opposite of Carlos; he is shy, pessimistic, mature, loving, and isn’t very careful with other’s feelings, he is a very negative and lazy person he’s often whining about how he’d rather be sitting at home with Carlos watching TV. Brandon is a very serious person he always wants to get the job done and is very impatient especially around Chris and Justin who are always goofing off. He has trouble believing in Chris’ Aura powers saying that “if I can’t see it, then it’s not there”. Brandon is, however, a much happier and cheerful person when Carlos is around. Jakie comments on how Carlos brings the best out of Brandon making him a better person. Brandon is the kind of person who wears his heart on his sleeve and can be easily insulted then afterwards he mopes around and sulks. Brandon once attempted suicide and is known to be an alcoholic. He is kind of a drama queen in most cases. Brandon is a needy person often requiring Carlos to cheer him up during rough times. Brandon is a loyal friend and a fiercely good person; he would sacrifice his own life to save anyone in danger, which is surprising considering his usual selfish attitude. Brandon is an acrobat although he’s not a major athlete he can jump pretty far and can perform aerial flips. According to Carlos, Brandon is a secret pervert, which is a side of him that only appears when he and Carlos are alone. Brandon is glossophobic (Stage Fright) as well as claustrophobic. Brandon is extremely afraid of being locked up, confined, or being restricted in any way; he frequently has nightmares of being locked up in an insane asylum. Carlos often comments on how Brandon is secretive and unwilling to let anyone in, probably due to being hurt by countless ex-boyfriends. Brandon often says that Carlos saves his life every day, just by existing. Brandon is a really bad singer and dancer often falling or tripping anytime he tries to dance; despite being a wizard Brandon is extremely clumsy and accident prone. Brandon is extremely forgetful and has to be reminded to do almost anything and he always forgets important dates, holidays, and anniversaries. Jakie thinks that Brandon is smarter then he lets on and that he only acts dumb and clumsy to make Carlos appear smarter by comparison. Brandon often asks stupid questions and frequently asks for Carlos’ opinion in any situation. Whenever there’s a mission and Carlos isn’t with the group Brandon always looks lonely and distant, thinking of Carlos and wishing he was with him.
