Brian is a tall, slender Tabaxi with the distinctive spots of a cheetah. He wears a pristine, starched white cook's apron over his leather armor, which is constantly dusted with a light coating of flour or exotic spices. He keeps his scimitar polished to a mirror finish, and several smaller kitchen knives are tucked into his belt. His eyes are the color of amber honey.

Brian is obsessed with flavor and precision. He speaks with the rhythmic cadence of a professional kitchen and treats every battle as if it were a high-stakes dinner service. He is generally polite and warm, but becomes incredibly pedantic when anyone discusses the proper way to sear a steak or prep a marinade.

Born with the name Bright-Scale-In-Sunlight, Brian never cared for the tracking and hunting traditions of his people. While others were watching the wind for the scent of prey, Brian was sniffing the soil for wild garlic. He left his jungle home to apprentice with the Guild of Cooks in a distant city, where he earned the nickname Brian because his true name was too difficult for the head chef to scream during the lunch rush. After mastering the basics, he realized that the finest ingredients in the world are hidden in dungeons and guarded by monsters. He joined the College of Swords to blend his dual passions, refining a fighting style that mirrors the fast-paced, rhythmic chopping of a master chef. He now travels the world seeking the mythical Hydra-Tail Spice, believing that a truly perfect meal can bring peace to the realms.
