Yuri Briar

Yuri Briar (ユーリ・ブライア) is Yor Forger's younger brother and a twenty-year-old man who works in the State Security Service. He keeps his job at the SSS a secret from his sister and instead pretends to be a normal civil servant at the foreign ministry.

Appearance
Yuri is a young man in his twenties. He has a very small cowlick on top of his straight black hair with uneven bangs. He also has red eyes.

When at work, Yuri wears the SSS's standard uniform. When leaving work, he wears a coat over his black suit and tie, along with black gloves.

Personality
Yuri has a sister-complex, and even at an early age, he would be doing everything he could to get Yor to praise him with affection. Though this could be due to his mother dying at a very early stage in his life causing him to get very attached to Yor as a mother figure.

When on the job, Yuri is shown to have a very appealing demeanor, calmly extracting information from the people he interrogates. He's been shown to be very patriotic as, when discussing "Twilight", he swiftly drops his calm air and becomes colder and angry, losing his patience very easily. He also appears to value his family, as he almost immediately resorts to violence when he learns of the personal excuse for his affair. However, in a idiosyncrasic, Yuri loses all his intelligence whith his sister, completely believing Yor's excuses of "forgetting" to tell him about her marriage with Loid for a year.

It is also seen that while capturing Franklin Perkin, Franklin poses the question about who is the true disgrace after Yuri stated how he "saw no reason for Franklin's family to witness his disgrace." Yuri then responds stating how he would never "cause his sister pain," implying that his sister-complex overrides his morals.

History
During his childhood he lived in Eastern Nielsberg, both of his parents passed away when he was young, leaving both him and his older sister, Yor, as orphans and causing them to be poor and unable to afford books or school supplies. Around this time Yuri began developing his sister complex tendencies when he began doing everything he could to make Yor happy and to shower him with her affections, eventually leading him to work as a diplomat at the foreign ministry until about a year ago, where he began working for the SSS.

Introduction Arc
Yuri calls Yor, asking when she is going to get married. He explains that he may be promoted at work, which would make him too busy to look out for her, which makes him worried. He brings up introducing her to someone, but Yor lies that she already has a boyfriend and says that he will ask Dominic for a full report on him. At the end of the call, Yuri says that he will be the one to drive out her boyfriend if it turns out he is a bad person and leaves the call after excitedly saying he cannot wait to hear about him.

Yor Forger
After both of their parents died in the war, Yor was the one who raised Yuri during his childhood despite living in poverty. Because of this, he has developed a sister-complex and will do anything to keep his sister safe, to the point of suspecting her husband of being an enemy. He holds a deep appreciation for Yor, as seeing her work bloody all for his sake in their youth motivated him to become a successful man and vowed to protect his last living relative.

Loid Forger
Since Yuri is protective of his sister, he acts rudely towards Loid and thinks that he is unworthy of his sister.

Anya Forger
Yuri first meets Anya in person when Yor calls him over to tutor Anya for her midterm exams. Neither of them have a good impression of the other due to Yuri's dislike of Loid and his child, while Anya gets creeped out from Yuri's overly obsessive thoughts about his sister. Using Yuri's love for Yor, Anya is able to persuade him into tutoring her seriously and he eventually shares his motivation for studying when he was younger. Although Yuri later stomps off in frustration when she fails to learn anything, his story allows Anya to reflect on the recent bombing incident and how she could have better helped Loid if she were more knowledgeable.

It is shown that afterward, the two seem to have a rather fine relationship when Yuri (along with Loid and Yor) tells Anya that lying is wrong. (Despite that they're all lied about themselves)

Dominic
He is Yuri's friend and neighbor.

Abilities and Skills
Having been a very studious person growing up for the sake of his sister, he has become far more intelligent than her.

Intelligence: Yuri is extremely smart, able to work as a diplomat at a very early age. Despite this, however, his intel is that of an amateur when he's compared to Loid, as he follows what was in the Ostanian Intelligence manual word for word during his dinner with Yor and Loid, which allows the latter to quickly figure out that he was picked up by the SSS. It is also seen that in the SSS, he managed to locate, surveil, and capture a journalist in a matter of days.

Interrogation: Yuri is said to be very talented for his age, allowing his boss to let Yuri tag in for a senior officer for interrogation.

Endurance: Yuri is very durable, most likely due to his sister inadvertently hurting him in his youth. As an adult, he is durable enough to take two of Yor's drunken hits albeit sustaining heavy amounts of injuries enough for people to tell him to go to the hospital. He has also been hit by a truck after pulling four all-nighters in a row, sustaining little to no injuries.

Weakness
Alcohol: Just like his older sister Yor, Yuri is a lightweight. He is prone to drinking large amounts of alcohol in a short amount of time, pouring wine into his glass eagerly, and drinking wine straight out of the bottle. Intoxication renders him temperamental and unable to think properly, as shown when he forces Yor and Loid to kiss in front of him, and then the latter became regretted his decision.
