Backstory: Born to Polish immigrant parents, Brooks spent the first eleven years of his life being beaten by his father and neglected by his mother. He hated it but he let it happen, having nothing else to live for. That was until Ryker was born and Brooks wanted nothing more than for this innocent little baby to never experience what he had. He took all of Ryker’s beatings, stole food and clothes to keep Ryker safe. When Brooks was eighteen, he took Ryker and moved out, which his parents allowed. However, he struggled to keep Ryker fed and ended up joining a street gang, selling drugs to make ends meet. It was during this his gang got into trouble with the Cobras and the small street gang was wiped out. Brooks begged the leader of the Cobras to let him join, that he’d do anything as long as he had money. Anton Kask took pity on him, allowing him in, and was surprisingly good to Brooks, even offering to pay for an apartment for him and Ryker and giving him a steady job and income. Over the years, Brooks became the head of security and he is loyal to the Cobras, even Henry Ashe, the new young leader they have.
