*'''Techno-hmmm?''': Brick doesn't like the word 'Technocracy.' That suffix implies a desire to rule; science should persuade with evidence! If you want a lecture on the word "Technologist" versus "Technocrat," he's your boy.

*'''Crazed Eidolon''': Err. He shut up about it very early in his training, but there are a couple notes on Brick's file suggesting he might be schizophrenic. They haven't resurfaced since his post-Enlightenment boot camp in the early nineties, but it's still on record, for assholes who go back that far, that Brick at-least-used-to-think that at-least-his science is inspired by The Night Sky.
 
*'''They See Me Weavin''': Cross-over-delite! Brick calls the Triat the "Entropy Intelligence," "Stasis Intelligence" and "Creative Intelligence," but recent events have taught him that maybe those things have a cosmic significance, and maybe some of them are sick! Obviously Nephandi need to die, but maybe their boss has a point? If you want to argue Wyldhood, he'll enthuse, claiming that's the whole idea behind the Technocracy, and Wyrmness--well! Good luck without a substantial metaphor, and better luck talking up the Weaver. This machine kills stasis.

  • Posthuman: Conservatives aware of Brick's status as a copy of a copy of a man still wandering around might not consider him human. If you dig abhuman forms of personhood, though, he's about as weird as you can get without going full-bore Deviant. Add him to your rolodex of strange and wonderful things.
  • Identity: For reasons you might infer from the above, Brick's largely cut off from his past. This doesn't eat at him, but it does nag. People interested in identity might find his multiple self nature intriguing.
  • MAGIC SPACE: Brick is good with the DimSci and has extensive training operating in alien environments. If you're going to MAGIC SPACE, take him with you!
  • Lime in the Coconut: Traditionalists give Brick a headache, especially if they insist on doing their mojo in front of him, but he harbors a certain aggravated fondness for the crazies. No Pogrom here. Etherites and Virtual Adepts are practically even sane.
  • Nephandi: Nope nope nope. Kill em all, let their alien gods sort em out, then kill them, too. Put me on your deathsquad, captain, I wanna spongebath the cosmos.
  • More Like Technoc-crazy Amirite: If some mirrorshaded shitstain wants to burn down the orphanarium because the triplet sisters there are chatting up their dead dad with a ouija board, he'll at least be playing fireman and quite possibly whistleblower-executioner. If you need to do a little housecleaning on agents who go too far, how 'bout we infiltrate through the universe next door and slag his cortical stack?
  • Shore Leave: Well, he never asked for this, but technically he's supposed to be here to decompress and relax after decades in the stars. He's vice-prone and will gladly share yours with you.
  • Goddamn Hero: Well, he is one. Need one? Theoretical physics and suicidal bravery haven't gone together this sweetly since Gordon Freeman.
  • Techno-hmmm?: Brick doesn't like the word 'Technocracy.' That suffix implies a desire to rule; science should persuade with evidence! SOUNDS LIKE TRADITIONALIST PROPAGANDA TO ME. If you want a lecture on the word "Technologist" versus "Technocrat," he's your boy.
