Insider Information[]

He has a slight speech impediment that crops up when he is upset. He then says things like: 'a nelephant' or a 'nerror' instead of the proper English way to pronounce those sorts of words.

He will eat virtually anything as long as it is edible. He has, however, discovered a strong dislike for mustard and horseradish. For breakfast he always has dry cereals. Also, on those rare occasions where he feels that he has eaten too much, he restricts himself to eating yogurt.

Favorite Room: A large and quiet conference room, where he has all the space for himself.

Mannerisms: Brek often scratches his forearms when he finds himself in an uncomfortable situation. He also grins in an uncertain way when he realizes that his interlocutors aren't being entirely honest with him.

Spiritual Devotion: He believes that the purpose of life is to amass as much material possessions as one can.

He dislikes violence, and he believes that every problem can be solved with latinum.

He keeps a close eye on the art market, in which he has become quite an expert. Ever since his years at the Academy, he has also developed a strong liking for Earth food, and can often be found in lounges and mess halls, eating copious meals.

He also has a keen interest in Terran literature, reading classic authors such as Shakespeare, W. S. Maugham and Stevenson.

During his tribulations as a diplomat, he adopted an Acamarian spider called Alice. She is red and black and is as large as a man's hand. Sadly, in late 2393, Alice was killed by a Romulan Ambassador who was staying on Odyssey as a guest.
