Personality
Bryan is a notorious flirt and gentleman among Beacon's students. Often called 'Byron' due to the amount of female students he has romanced, Bryan has class as he has also been known to save many relationships and in the case of his old friend, break a relationship. Bryan is also known to be courageous and often protective of his teammates despite being cursed with weak teammates who often get eaten alive. Bryan is often seen with his Boxer Bud who has been noted to go with him in battle. Despite first glances, Bryan is very caring and even more very caring even in regards to his half sister Blair. Bryan in battle is consider the close-range combat expert despite Judge's skills. Though Bryan takes longer to heal his wounds through aura, his overall skills make him able to draw out a fight if needed compared to others and seems to be the most sane in combat despite having three teams eaten before him.

Azure Chopper
His choice weapon is 'Azure Chopper' a axe-like weapon that is colored navy blue and jet black. Similar to other weapons, the center of the dual-headed axe is a canister often found on flame-throwers. Inside this container is a mixture of DUSTs that have to settings 'Flame-Thrower' and 'Thermal Reduction'. It basically transforms into a flame thower by droping the head down and revolving the two blades together before a trigger is dropped. The axe blades becomes a handle as the canister is pushed above the muzzle. The male will grip it and aim it. Though the weapon can use the flame-thrower like mode in it's regular form, but it will only be good for either engulfing the head in flames or freezing it making it a mace. Through modifications, Azure Chopper also can spin the blades and if using the DUST, it can create spiral flames.

Strengths
bryan's strength comes in to play with the fact that he is aided by his partner, Bud, a boxer. Though a dog may not appear viable against Grimm, Bud has proved himself to be an excellent aid and even more a distraction. Bryan's main strength also lies in his mixing aura and dust in combat giving him the most balance of Team JBBS.

Weaknesses
Bryan's biggest weakness may come from his attraction to women even more in battle against human women. Easily seduced, Bryan is technically the weakest in human combat as he also recalls his friends being eaten by Grimm making him the easiest to startle by exploiting his memory.
