This is an attempt to capture for reference a character paper snapshot of the character Bron, a support character in the Multiverser novels who debuts in Garden of Versers and continues in Versers Versus Versers. This character sheet includes everything that is confirmed about him, plus a few extrapolations, in those books, and thus represents him as he is at the end of them, the fifth and sixth Multiverser novels.
The image here is reasonably accurate approximation of his appearance.
To assist the referee, most entries include at least one coded reference to a chapter or chapters in which the item is mentioned; thus by cross-referencing with the story you can determine the details. The chapters are identified by which character's story is being told, and thus most of those here begin with "Be"; this is followed by a three-digit number indicating the chapter number for that character, not the chapter number for the book. Thus if you want to find the first reference to the character, you read here that it appears in Be007, and on the index page for the fifth novel you search for the text "Beam 7" and that will take you to the link for that chapter. Obviously the chapters beginning "Ko" are Joe's story,and thus "Kondor", those beginning "Ha" are Lauren's story, and thus "Hastings", those beginning "Sl" are Bob's story, "Slade", and those beginning "Br" are Derek's story, "Brown", and those beginning "Ta" are the new character Tomiko Takano. The first novel ends with Kondor 41, Slade 42, and Hastings 43. The second contains Kondor 42 through 96, Hastings 44 through 95, and Brown 1 through 55, the third consists of Hastings 96 through 136, Slade 43 through 92, and Brown 56 through 96, the fourth Kondor 97 through 136, Brown 97 through 160, and Slade 93 through 135, the fifth Kondor 137 through 154, Hastings 137 through 172, Slade 136 through 154, Brown 161 through 178, and Beam 1 through 41, and the sixth Kondor 155 through 171, Hastings 173 through 184, Slade 155 through 167, Brown 179 through 195, Beam 42 through 54, and Takano 1 through 12.
