Biography

But as told by Rahim, he set up the Tower with a group of runners as a Safe Haven during the outbreak. Prior to the mission "Airdrop", he went after a night drop with his runners, lost all to Biters and then got beaten savagely by Rais's men. A sidequest called "Mother's Day" is Crane finding drugs for Brecken.
He is the Tower's leader and is affiliated with Spike and Dr. Zere. He has strong beliefs and strength which people look up to.
APPEARANCE

Personality
Brecken is initially reluctant of his duty as leader of the runners, which suggests that he was elected to be their leader instead of self-appointed. This sets him apart from Rais who is often seen as a tyrannical dictator. While he is hinted to be extremely strong and agile, he is seldom seen and is quite reclusive, rarely being spotted around the tower unless he must. However, this belies his fondness and sense of camaraderie for all the denizens of the Tower, though this often clouds his judgment when faced with difficult decisions. As shown when an outbreak begins on the 18th floor and he must decide between sealing off the area or trying to rescue those trapped and risking the outbreak spreading, a decision which is instead resolved by Jade. Brecken ultimately strives for the survival of his people, each person lost is a source of great distress to him, though he tries not to show it. He would willingly pay any price for the survival of the Tower personally, even if such fervor does occasionally lead him to reckless abandon. Bracken treats Jade and Rahim like equals and he treats them like younger siblings and Bracken treats Crane like a equal and the young men treat each other like older brothers. Like "good luck Crane" and "watch your back mate".
