BIOGRAPHY (TW drug abuse, arrest, violence)
Brody was the last child to be born into the Martinez family; half-brother to Adriana Martinez and her older brother. Pablo Martinez was already well-established and comfortably wealthy before Brody's mother met and married him, so they had all the makings of a typical privileged white-picket family; with an eventual move to Harlow Estates in Hidehill confirming their status.
While Brody and his siblings got along as well as any other brothers and sisters, there were underlying tensions that simmered between them that would eventually cause rifts and fractions. There was always a suspicion between the oldest Martinez children that their father had cheated on their mother with Brody's mother; an accusation that caused many fights at the dinner table but was always vehemently denied. It was also abundantly clear to Brody that Adriana was the golden child, especially in the eyes of their Dad. They had both rebelled and partied as hard as each other but Adriana seemed to always escape a lecture and a dressing down, whereas Brody did not.
Brody always felt like the black sheep of the family, and as he got older he only got himself into more and more trouble. he figured he was already a disappointment, so he may as well have fun. His dad decided to give him a job as a floor manager at The Vanilla Unicorn to try and teach him some responsibility and more importantly, keep a close eye on him. It worked for a while and Brody came to enjoy the tasks of being manager and the perks of being the owner's son.
When it came time for Pablo Martinez to retire and hand over the business, Brody felt like he was in the box seat to take over. He'd toed the line, proven himself and stayed loyal. Instead, he was overlooked in favour of his sister, who hadn't even lived in Hidehill for a number of years.
As a compromise, Brody's father requested he return to their hometown of Tampa, Florida to oversee an establishment there and also a business held in Miami. Not needing an excuse to get out of Nashville, Brody agreed and uprooted immediately.
He behaved himself for a time, but soon enough the hard party nightlife of Florida consumed him and he found himself out most nights, drinking heavily and using hard drugs. His father hadn't given him big responsibilities in a state where he couldn't supervise, so Brody felt as though he was free to do as he wanted as long as he checked in occasionally. This lifestyle saw him eventually fall deeper and deeper into the scene with questionable crowds, and on a drunken walk home on a Saturday night he came home to find the police already there with a warrant to search his home for drugs. Knowing he would be busted, he tried (and failed) to run and was arrested with possession and evasion of police. When his father found out, he fired him and cut him off to teach him a lesson.
Out on his own, Brody resorted to DJing (an occasional hobby until now) and dealing on the side to make a living. He was able to sustain himself for a considerable period of time and was even starting to make a name for himself as a DJ in the Florida club scene, but managed to piss off the wrong cartel when a deal went bad and was cornered in an alley after a set and beaten to a pulp. PRESENT DAY
Now scared for his life (though he won't admit it) Brody has returned to Hidehill to lay low for a while and try to repair some of the fractures his actions have created with his family.
