Brooklyn - A member of the Wyvern Clan and the Manhattan Clan.
History
He was hatched in the year 958 in the rookery under Wyvern Hill, and in his youth became good friends with his rookery brothers Lexington and Broadway, forming the trio. In 994, he got into a fight with some of the humans in the castle and was sent to the rookery with his brothers and Bronx as a punishment. Though he found this very embarrassing, it ultimately saved his life when the Wyvern Massacre occurred the next day. Shortly thereafter, he was placed under the Magus’s curse of stone sleep, only awakening in 1994 with the rest of the clan.
Brooklyn is the most adventurous of the trio. He rode a horse once in the 10th century, and not long after his awakening, eagerly took to riding a motorcycle that Lexington had made out of spare parts. (He only got to ride it once, however; it was destroyed in a clash with a biker gang). He likes exploring, and finding out more about human ways. He will even wear sunglasses because they’re "cool" (and never mind the fact that sunglasses at night are pointless). He is a quick-witted gargoyle, and even has a certain fondness for making wisecracks at times.
But underneath his thrill-seeking exterior, Brooklyn has a lonelier, almost "Gothic melancholic" side. He has had his share of misfortunes in the 20th century that have shaped him strongly. One of these was when Demona tricked him into stealing the Grimorum Arcanorum for her, so that she could use it to magically bring Goliath under her control. Brooklyn has never forgiven Demona for it as yet, and holds a bitter grudge against her to this day for having used him (fueled in part by his guilt over having helped her enslave Goliath). He will someday forgive her, after his Timedancer adventures, however.
Brooklyn also has a weakness for the ladies. He first eagerly pursued Maggie the Cat, and it took a long while for him to realize that she wanted nothing to do with him, a realization that crushed him. Next he pursued Angela when she joined the clan, and again, felt devastated when she chose Broadway for her mate instead. Brooklyn is still young, and has not yet learned to distinguish between infatuation and true love; however, he will learn during his Timedancer adventures.
After the clan’s first battle with the upgraded Pack, Goliath appointed Brooklyn his second-in-command, and intended successor. While Brooklyn is, overall, pleased with this new role, he has no desire to become the actual leader of the clan for a long time. Nevertheless, he did have to temporarily take command of the other gargoyles during Goliath’s absence on the Avalon World Tour, and after a brief period of resistance, finally accepted it.
Not long after the gargoyles moved back into the castle, Brooklyn embarked on his most unusual adventure of all. The Phoenix Gate, thrown into the Time Vortex by Goliath, re-appeared and whisked him away on a series of adventures. It first transported him to Scotland in the year 997, where he met Mary and Finella, still being pursued by Constantine’s soldiers for the 'Grimorum Arcanorum'. He protected the two women until the Phoenix Gate re-appeared and transported them all to the United States in the late 1970’s. From there, they worked together behind the scenes at setting up the alliance between Xanatos and Demona that led to the transporting of Castle Wyvern to New York and the re-awakening of the gargoyles, with a little help from Owen/Puck. After that, the Phoenix Gate whisked Brooklyn off on more adventures. Among other places, he visited the world in the year 2198, for many adventures in the company of the natives of that time period (including Samson, a repentant Demona whom he learned to forgive, Owen, and Nokkar), helping them battle the Space-Spawn invaders, and feudal Japan, where he finally found true love, with a female gargoyle named Katana. The two became mates, and in the course of their travels together, had two children, named Nashville and Tachi, and also acquired a gargoyle beast for a pet named Fu-Dog.
(Actually, Brooklyn acquired Fu-Dog as a companion in Xanadu before meeting Katana; Fu-Dog took part in his adventures in 2198 as well). At last, after forty years of wandering, from Brooklyn’s perspective, the Phoenix Gate deposited him and his family back at Castle Wyvern - only five minutes after he left. He rejoined the clan, adding his family to its ranks, and resumed his position as second-in-command.
Future Tense
In Future Tense, Brooklyn led the resistance against Xanatos.
Characteristics
Physically, Brooklyn is a wiry red-colored gargoyle. He has a mane of wild white hair, an enormous beak, two long horns, and hang-glider-shaped wings. At some point during his Timedancer adventures, Brooklyn will acquire a permanent injury of some sort.
Brooklyn received his name after he awakened in New York in 1994, naming himself after the borough of Brooklyn.
