Overall Personality:
Braxton is simple and complicated at the same time. His main goal in life? Destroy anything and everything with fangs. He’s a complete badass equipped with shiny black car, leather, and handguns. And what vampire hunter would be complete without a sarcastic attitude? He often makes jokes during his killings and plotting. He has a sick sort of humor sometimes and can take jokes way too far. He would like to think that his plans are flawless and that he could never do any wrong.
But all that is around the people he is close to and usually only when he’s fighting. To everyone else he’s Drew’s little brother, cutie pie who works in the Auto Repair store. He’s got that gentleman demeanor about him that women apparently find attractive. Whoever said chivalry was dead has probably died.
Living up to his brother’s expectations is the most important thing for him. Being the younger of the two, he sometimes feels as though following in Drew’s footsteps is the only way to go. Good thing he likes hunting because if he didn’t that could get to be a real pain. Though they get on each other’s nerves at times, the two have a fairly good relationship.
Relatives:
Drew Carter - brother
Overall History:
Ask Braxton what he thinks about vampires and he’ll tell you one thing - they are dangerous mother fuckers. Some of them even quite literally. This idea had been drilled into his brain since birth. Hunting was sort of a family thing. See the Carters? Yeah, they’re different. They stay up late and have tons of silver. The normal thing about them? One father, one mother, and the two children. Okay, so it’s not perfect. Don’t you need two point five?
He’s the second child of the family, and the youngest. Growing up with a brother that was two years older than him probably should have sucked. The thing is, Braxton thrived on the competition that being so close in age brought. And he didn’t hate his brother for it either, which some would say was unusual. Maybe it was the whole knowing about vampires thing that helped them bond, despite that his older brother didn’t always hate the immortal.
Then when Braxton was ten (Drew twelve) they were forced to live with their grandparents due to an unfortunate incident that their hunter parents fell into. Braxton was sad, but had known from the start what risks were involved with hunting, so the adjustment was made. Fortunately, it didn’t mean that they had to leave the city.
The urge to fight was stronger now that his parents were dead. Though he was probably the more reasonable of the brothers, Braxton could be just as careless and spontaneous when in any given situation. At fifteen Braxton got into a little pot and alcohol abuse. He likes to think he can hold his liquor but he just can’t pass up a good shot or two. It doesn’t happen very often. He considers himself a social drinker now, being that he’s usually mostly sober when hunting and that takes up a ton of his time.
Seventeen was the most important age for Braxton. His brother moved out of their grandparents’ house and took Brax with him. It wasn’t that Braxton wasn’t thankful that their grandparents had taken care of them, but he was more comfortable around his older brother and felt that they were better off on their own anyway. It was also the age that he started really getting into fighting. Until now there was an urge, a sort of need that he needed to fill that he didn’t get to often. He’d been on raids and such but this was different. Now he and his brother were finally doing what they were born to do - kill anything supernatural.
You win some, you lose some never worked well for Brax. Anytime they’d screwed up he’d get pissed and usually turn to drinking or sex, mostly drinking. It was during that year that his temper decided to show itself as wild and sometimes unpredictable. He’s been that way ever since, and still lives with his brother, working at an auto repair shop and hunting the undead.
After spending some time in New York the two moved to Las Vegas, mostly to check out the supernaturals there though Braxton couldn’t imagine the undead population being anything like New York. He was wrong of course, it was worse - way worse - and what started out as a brief move to control the supernatural population turned into so far, a permanent residence.
