Through book 1
The Meadow Lark party's voice and builder. Book 1 gives him the redoubt, the float and the MOAB, the line 'You are a good man.' and the look that means giving up (B1 ch. 39). He hugs Carl goodbye at the ramp (B1 ch. 41).

By book
Brandon in book 1 — Dungeon Crawler Carl
Brandon An, level 6, a chubby man in a winter coat with a hammer as wide as a chopper tyre, tells how Meadow Lark came down the ramp (ch. 22); his group put up the spray-painted 'Stairs + People' signs (ch. 21, ch. 23). Not a nurse — a maintenance man, working overtime on an oven — which is why the Speedbump exists (ch. 26): he and Chris turn goblin tables and gym equipment into a bolt-together fortress and he has the idea for the shuriken spikes. He builds the residents' float (ch. 37) and the MOAB (ch. 40), insisting it be called Bomb Chicken and that the weight go at the back. He is the one who says 'You are a good man' and gets the line about staying human in reply, and the one who exchanges the look with Carl that means giving up (ch. 39). He hugs Carl goodbye at the ramp (ch. 41).
