Biography[]
Background[]
After the Cordyceps brain infection outbreak, Sean joined the military as a warrant officer and was put in Captain Regan Francis' unit, co-piloting a Black Hawk helicopter with Chief Warrant Officer Caulfield. During his captain's birthday party, Brendon celebrated with the rest of the unit, posing for a picture with them, which was then gifted to Francis stating she was "the coolest Captain around". Brendon appeared to be Caucasian.[1]
Brendon was stationed in the Denver quarantine zone before going on a rescue mission with his unit. While flying over the Colorado Mountain Plaza, he was attacked by their infected patient and subsequently lost control of the helicopter. Caulfield managed to pry the patient from Brendon, but not before they were both bitten. The helicopter crashed into the plaza, with Brendon smashing through the windshield and dying on impact. Caulfield was able to kill the infected once the crew scrambled out of the wreckage. Francis later remarked on Brendon's death in one of her reports.[2]
Events of Left Behind[]
Ellie later found Brendon's corpse while searching the helicopter for medical supplies for an injured Joel, early in the Winter of 2033. Ellie also finds the notes left by Francis and Ellis, who suffered terrible fates in the Plaza, as well.[3]
