Brown, Nicolas

One half of Benriya, Nicolas is highly skilled with a sword, imposing and somewhat aloof. He is deaf and communicates primarily through sign language, though he can speak in a limited capacity. Along with Worick, Nicolas works as a gangster-for-hire. He is an A/0 level Twilight or "tagged" (in reference to his dog tags), making him both feared and reviled on the streets. Despite his rough exterior, Nicolas has a soft spot for Nina and is beginning to accept Alex's presence at the Benriya residence.

It is later mentioned that he is actually the equivalent of a B/5 without his uppers overdose. Nicolas is only able to have the strength of an A/0 by overdosing on uppers. This is why he is considered a "faker."
