other/description.
Not being one to care much about sports or other strenuous activity, Brandon is a bit on the chunky side. He typically wears glasses, but during important events (and he considers this summer one), he wears contacts instead. His typical attire includes jeans and a polo collared shirt. His messy brown hair is not noteworthy, but his strongest positive feature is his blue eyes. A girl once complimented his eyes, and he didn’t stop blushing for a week.

likes/dislikes.
Brandon is a nice enough guy, but he’s never been what one would call a partier. In fact, he wasn’t going to accept the invitation to stay in the mansion for the summer, but his parents insisted. He is the typical nerd: salutatorian of the class and captain of the math team (the only varsity letter he got). He nearly always treats others nicely (unless they’ve been treating someone else poorly), but he often misjudges social situations and says the wrong thing.
That said, Brandon has a heart of gold. Those he considers his friends are the world to him, even if he doubts they feel the same way. He would stand up for anyone who was mistreated, and once got punched in the face defending a friend from a bully (which ironically also got Brandon suspended for the first time in his life).

backstory.
Being the youngest of four children, Brandon always felt as if he were neglected in life. He had two older sisters and an older brother, all of which were very active in sports and other extracurricular activities. Brandon, by contrast, focused more on studies than sports.
Brandon started life as an adorable charismatic kid, but in his tenth year, several major things happened to him. His family moved, forcing him to switch schools; his grandfather died, with whom he was extremely close; and he was subject to abuse from his brother, the effects of which he wouldn’t truly realize until some time passed. With all these things crashing down, Brandon found it hard to cope, withdrawing into video games and anime instead of spending time making friends.
By the time he reached high school, Brandon was already significantly overweight. As such, he never considered himself attractive enough to be worthy of dating, overlooking his other positive traits. Indeed, he has never been in any sort of true relationship, although he has crushed pretty hard on a few of his classmates over the years. He would never admit it to them for fear of (in his eyes, imminent) rejection. He considers himself broken goods, and has essentially consigned himself to a life with little possibility of romance.
Brandon has a habit of avoiding social gatherings, and without his parents’ insistence, he would not be at this summer-long get-together. His parents decided that he needed more social interactions, perhaps looking back on their own youths and wishing they had fewer regrets. Whatever the reason, Brandon approaches the gathering with some trepidation, having no idea what to expect.

future plans.
Brandon was one of ten people in the school to go all four years on the honor roll, and one of two to get all As for all four years. Sadly, one of his college credit classes gave him a bit more trouble than he anticipated, and he slipped to salutatorian instead of valedictorian. The effort was enough to land him with a full scholarship to Virginia Tech on an engineering program. The scholarship has taken the pressure off Brandon to find a job to pay for his classes, and as he is not a partier, he has little need for funding other than snacks and hobbies. However, he laments that he will be leaving his friends behind.
