Personality ~
- Public Perception - Brandt is perceived as a generally neutral member of Regalian Society, acting neither too upbeat or downtrodden in his day to day ventures. Spending his time drinking, idly conversing, commanding and training, Brandt is a generally relaxed person. Due to his protective nature over his family, friends and culture, Brandt's rage and anger is often targeted towards those that would slight him or his people - growing fierce over it even to close acquaintances.
- Self Perception - Brandt holds a great deal of resentment towards himself, mainly attributed to his Marked venture alongside his childhood staple as the 'family runt' amongst his stronger siblings. That said, Brandt is also confident in his abilities, deciding to hold his own in situations that might overwhelm him. Furthermore, he often takes his bundled rage up out on inanimate objects to spare his friends and family the pressure of his grief.
- Familial Perception - Despite the grief his brothers have given during his childhood, Brandt is fiercely loyal to his Family and friends. Having only been born with half-northerne blood, Brandt has always yearned to prove his worth despite his runtish position amongst the household. That said, it doesn't stop Brandt from scolding his more inept siblings from messing about.
- Moral Perception - Brandt's neutrality extends to his morality as well, in the sense that he isn't exceptionally evil. Though he enjoys being a good person, and would like nothing more than to allow that to persist, Brandt is not above doing what needs to be done to either save those close to him or act on behalf of someone he cares about.

~ Life Story ~
- Born in the year 269 AC, Brandt Norrvakt was evidently the runt of the litter, weighing less than his siblings at birth. He grew up constantly bullied and harassed by his brothers, constantly crying from their abuse until they grew older. At around the age of sixteen, both Baird and Ingvarr had decided to throw Brandt into the pig's feed trough. After having been hounded by the two all month, Brandt had enough. When Baird approached to further harass him, Brandt picked up a nearby branch and struck Baird across the face with it, resulting in a deep gash. Ingvarr quickly grabbed Brandt, throwing him back into the trough before taking Baird to their father to get help.
- After this incident, Ingvarr never again pestered Brandt, but Baird, having taken this as a challenge to his dominance, refused to relent. Instead Baird only got crueler in his hounding until eventually the boy's' father had to step in. Baird was sent to be schooled as punishment, along with Ingvarr for his involvement. Both brothers were sent to a lodge in Drixagh, where as Brandt, stayed behind and was trained personally by his father, Einarr in a closer to home lodge. This led to Brandt having great skill with both axe and sword as opposed to only the twin axes, however he primarily prefers his twin axes over his knowledge in being a swordsmen.
- Now that the boys have all grown and seen battle together, the bullying has died down slightly. Brandt and Baird still occasionally go at each other, though it is only petty jesting and brotherly competition. Brandt now seeks to further grow his family's reputation and redeem himself from the events of the Marked episode. During this time, his brother Baird unfortunately fell, dying within battle where as Brandt and his father attacked the rebels in an attempt to take back their brethren, but instead ended up being captured. Brandt was shot ten times by Nadia and her following of yanar before being caught within their net. To their benefit, the mark was removed and the two were forgiven for their blind actions. Yet to this day, the mark lingers, Brandt loosing most of his sarcastic undertone to the anger that lingered.
- After the passing of both Baird; a brother in blood, and Carthus; a brother through adoption, Brandt had resigned from his position within Ironwolf Mercenary Organisation. His father, no longer by name, was supposedly killed due to his association with his faith in the Old Gods, as well as his lack of intention to serve accordingly. The family fell, loosing their nobility as well as the remaining slithers of their pride. The family began to crumble from within, as the remaining siblings rivaled for the families name as well as an opportunity to set things right.
- A few months went by before the family truly became silent. Only whispers remained of their presence as each sibling took to their own paths. Birgit, the youngest known sibling took it upon herself to return to the North, seeking aid from other known family members, whilst Ingvar remained before soon following. Brandt however remained within the city, in hope to bring his families name justice; to seek redemption within the noble community.
- Brandt sought to do so by joining the Ravenstad House Guard, remaining a guard officer within their house before the family returned to the Hinterlands. Remaining within Regalia, he'd then come to assist the Bellator, aiding Mordred Howlester in presenting worthy Dragon Knights to the Kade Court. Whilst there, Brandt progressed in his combat knowledge by participating in training sessions and Tournaments alike, slaying creatures picked by the Grand Bellator. However, after a few months of training, Brandt fell back in to a state of depression and decided to take his leave.
- With Mordred's permission, he headed to the Hinterlands. This is where Brandt truly elevated, becoming a general within the Ravenstad's forces until the present day, before being pardoned to allow him to travel. After departing Percival's side, a replacement was found and Brandt made his way back to Regalia, in aid of those that remained in the city. This is where Brandt aided Regalian forces against the Elven Empire, as well as the unfortunate epidemic that consumed Anglia. Ever since, he has bounded back and forth in their aid.
