Personality & Traits
Ambitions | Brannis Baratheon couldn't give a damn about the Six Kingdoms, who is King or- frankly- who rules Storm's End as long as he has the purse strings. Brannis' love has always been money, trade, foreign women, and the sea- pretty much in that order. He has the same lusty habits that seem to taint so many Baratheon men before him- and a similar shortsightedness that has brought down his ancestors. Brannis is a shrewd, rather ruthless negotiator and merchant, and he is quite greedy under all that charm. He is also vain, likes his people to love him- and so many of his smallfolk and bannermen consider him generous. He is a steward of the land who has expanded and improved upon Storm's End's ports and roads- but in reality, it is entirely to benefit him, his treasury, and his trade partners. Happy bannermen are made by making them rich. Happy smallfolk are made content by merriments and supposed tax generosity. But he is counting every copper and feels no compunction about reminding those of his past generosity (while threatening to end it) to get what he wants. Brannis has no head for war and borders on being a coward when it comes to personal, physical combat. He enjoys being ruthless to his financial enemies, and so he truly behaves a bit more like a Mafioso- as long as his hands are personally clean, his conscience is clear and he can be as ruthless as distance allows. |

Hobbies & Interests | Sailing, trading, lavish private parties for his favorites, hunting trips (always with prospective clients). He has a fondness for foreign women- especially those from the Summer Isles. Though he is married, he is completely faithless to his wife whom he sees as the signature of a deal, a sealed alliance, and nothing more. He'll make heirs and bed whatever other women he pleases. |
