† Personality †
Basic Personality:
Lew has always admired people who are in possitions of authority. Because of this he also has a wrong sense of justice. Though since his discharge from the SEALS this sense of justice has gone a little hawire in that he will take down any supernatural creature that breaks the law or threatens himself or Atrum Venator. He is also intensly loyal to those who are in the gang, willing to lay fight for them no matter what even if he doesn't like the person much he is able to put his personal feelings aside and focus on getting them out alive.
Lew has always been able to get people to do what he says through the commanding power in his voice, usually given in short and sharp sentaces or even single words. Been in the Atrum Venator Lew is not willing to let himself get involved with anyone seriously, lest it bring about them asking questions about where he works and why he is out most of the time.
Having been in the SEALS Lew expects the people he works with to co-operate and act as a team; no bickering or in fighting about who is more important or who is better. A team must work together for the operation to run smoothly, they are a machine, if one part fails then the whole thing will fall apart. If that part (person) cannot be fixed then it must be replaced with a a new part. Harsh, but it makes sure that a team is always in top condition.

† History †
History:
For two hundred years or so the family Brand has lived in the city of London; never causing trouble for others, always keeping to themselves and living their own lives. In 2019 all hell broke loose and London was engulfed in a war between two creatuers that shouldn't exist, that couldn't exist yet were there in the streets fighting and causing havock in the streets. With a bit of luck, and some helpful connections with the higher ups, Alex and Joan Brand were able to flee from London before the quarentine was put on the city, trapping people within aswel as stopping others from getting in. With their newly born son the Brand's left thought it best to leave the country all together, go somewhere new and start again. They chose the furthest country they could think of.
Llewllyn grew up on the stories his grandfather told him about the chaos in London, amazed that his grandparents were able to get out before everything fell apart. Sure the whole world had been affected by the coming out of vampire and werewolves but Lew always liked to hear his grandad's stories over any of those of peopl who had been stuck in London and just cowered in their houses. Grandad Alex had fought to get out, protected his family, their families very existance had been ensured by Alex's determination to get him, his wife and son out of London; that determination Lew admired and it's what drove him to become part of the armed forces to protect his homeland and family from anything be it supernatural or human in nature. Even if it meant leaving to train elsewhere.
Lew fought hard to rise up in the ranks of the army, his own determination and willpower keeping him from slipping in any way, shape or form. At the age of twenty-six Lew was accepted into the US Navy SEALS. Thoughts of quiting ran through his head many time during the training, but always the memory of his grandfathers actions drove him to keep going. In 2191 Lew (33) and his team were sent into California to deal with an uprising of vampires in the city that had become too big for the local PD to handle. Even with their equipment the team were no match for the superior senses of a vampire. Ambushed and attacked they were outnumbed; a team of ten up against a group of vampires numbering fifty (that they could see).
Nothing could be done to save those who were taken out, no way would the vampires leave them alive. The team, no numbering only four, were forced to withdraw from the city to the Golden Gate Bridge and wait for a boat pickup. The boat however had been taken over by vampires who kept the captain of the ship alive to order the SEALS onboard. Then it was an all out massacure. From what he knows Lew was the only one to survive. He was found floating half-dead in the water with a shattered femur and burns up the left side of his body. He spent almost a year and a half in rehab recovering and waiting for his leg to heal enough for him to walk on (it now has a metal plate and screws to hold the bone together properly since after the break it didn't set properly).
After coming out of rehab Lew (34) would never be fit to go back into the armed forces. He was instead sent to England, London to become part of the police force there. Lew has always blamed the vampires for cutting short his career in the SEALS, also because of this his wife divorced him, taking their young son with her. Still suffering from PTSD Llewllyn was told to leave the London PD to have time to deal with his injuries and mental stress. For about two years Llewllyn took his anger out the supernaturals inhabiting London whether they were vampire or werewolf. Through these actions he caught the attention of Artrum Venator. Because of his military background he was given the possition of a solider.
It took Lew three years to become head of security amung the human gang. With his knowlege of how to make simple explosive, weaponry and how to make sure a room is secure of trip wires and bugs (mini microphones). Whenever there is an attack by vampires or werewolves it's Lew who goes and cleans it up and finds out who it was who did the attack if it was done by a pack or coven. He also gives the orders on who the assassins of Artrum Venator are to eliminate.
