Trivia

Lore

• Brimstone is thought to have connections to Kingdom Corporation, evidenced by the company's logo being seen on his armor straps and Molly launcher.
• He is one of the founders and leaders of the VALORANT Protocol, alongside Viper.
• Brimstone's previous occupations possibly include being a firefighter and a military soldier, as shown in his personal player card.

Relations

• Some agents like Phoenix refer to him as the "Big Man".
• There may be friction between him and Breach.
  • Brimstone may be one of the reasons why his induction into VALORANT was "not a smooth affair".
  • Brimstone tends to voice his displeasure about having to deal with Breach in any way.
    •    "You did well Breach, don't expect a hug."
    •    "Jackass."
    •    "An enemy Breach? Ughh...there goes my good day..."
  • Breach himself suggests that Brimstone has reasons to prefer not working with him.
    • 
         "It could be worse Brimstone. Instead of working together, we could be facing off. Or maybe you'd prefer that..."
    • 
         "Haha, when that Brimstone sees me here, he's gonna be sooo pissed"
• Brimstone has a close bond with Killjoy, who he sees as his protégé.
  • She was the one who designed his bracer.
• He appears to have a close connection with KAY/O. Brimstone fights alongside him in KAY/O's reveal trailer and both their personal cards shows them carrying someone in their arms.
  • One theory claims that Brimstone is carrying KAY/O and vice versa, though the cards could also be a throwback to their past activities when the two were on separate Earths.
  • Whatever the case, it has been confirmed that the similarities between the two are intentional.
