Biography
Brandon was born in a small town in the county of Kent in England, he lived a relatively standard life with his mother Samantha and his father John. He came from a poor family and went to public school until the age of about 10 showing an above average level of intellect. However come the age of 10 his parents struggled financially even more so than they did in the past, especially considering the recession that England was put under. His mother worked full time and his father worked two jobs making him physically and mentally sick. This pressure sparked a change in his father, he became abusive. He would attack both Brandon and his mother on a daily basis, all love had left the mans body leaving nothing but a violent husk. Soon under the pressure of losing his home John signed Brandon up for an experiment. This experiment paid extremely handsomely but as usual, the higher the reward the larger the risk; however John's blackened heart cared not for his son, thus he took the deal without a second thought.
Brandon was placed into a facility with about 14 other children, it was as you would expect it to be. terrifying. There was a faint sound of fans from the ceiling, and every now and then you'd hear audible gurgles and screams from the test rooms. There were 3 in total, 3 children taken at a time, resulting in 5 batches. Brandon was among the 4th batch. After hearing the screams for 3 batches Brandon's every fiber started to scream in terror. Then when a pool of blood started forming from under one of the test doors Brandon finally tried to make a break for it. However John held him in place. Samantha was too frightened to even move, she and Brandon had been told by John that this was going to be a relatively safe drug test that would be done on the full family, the pay would also be enough to keep them in the green for two months. John had even offered to go first to put her at ease. Then the time came for the fourth batch to be done.
Brandon was physically dragged to the room by two staff members, while John dragged Sam into the room. They started injecting all manners of drugs and serums into Brandon. Eventually the change started. From then all Brandon can remember is his skin slowly turning green and black (however unlike the original beastboy he has black markings over his body like tattoos), his memory cuts off and carries on from himself sitting on his fathers corpse with a mouth full of raw flesh. From then on Brandon was taken from facility to facility. He had no idea what was going to happen, he was told he was being rehabilitated to regular life and to "control" his new "talents". Everyday Brandon was made to transform into a number of different forms. They key ones being: Cheetah, Gorilla, Eagle, Elephant, and Tiger. After several years of tests and trials Brandon was informed he was ready to go into society.
Upon the leaving of his last facility he was greeted by a kind elderly gent, who looked rather frail. The man had informed him that he was now a free citizen. The rules were simple, he try to avoid using his "talents" unless in a completely safe manner, for example becoming a house cat. Dangerous transformations are only to be used in extremely dire situations and can result in arrest even if no crime is committed. Brandon was then given access to the money his parents had left behind from the experiment. He lived in England for a few months with a carer to adjust him to regular life, however he was relentlessly bullied and targeted both for his physical appearance and relation to that experiment several years back. Despite all his efforts to be a good person he was ruthlessly attacked.
Eventually he took the leap to fly to America to leave behind the life he had and in the hopes of finding other "different" people, especially after reading about the reemergence of heroes. In his words "I mean they have to kinda be outsiders too right!" Landing in Metropolis he took his first steps in his new life. He rented an apartment and started researching into heroes, even going as far as to research for humans with just superpowers. He currently lives in his apartment playing music, when he's not doing that he's either actively or passively searching for someone who would be like him. He had already made a few friends, however he still felt out of place and was still targeted for how he looks.

[Ability information]
○ Metamorphosis:
Brandon has the metamorphic ability to transform into any animal or animal-like protist. Can turn into animals from extinct, alien, and demon races so long as he has witnessed them. He can also turn into fictional creatures, also able to control their size. (For example a giant snake) Once transformed Brandon retains his green and black colouration setting him apart from all other animals. It's also to be noted he can transform into groups of animals such as flies.
○ Chimera Metamorphosis: currently not learned
The ability to combine aspects of different animals for specific purposes, an example could be a cheetah with the wings of a pterodactyl, and webbed feet, allowing for increased mobility on land, air, and in water.
○ Increased healing factor:
Brandon's healing factor is relatively large due to how much his form physically changes. He can heal from most wounds instantly. His brain is the weakest part of this (assuming he's in a form with a brain), enough damage to this will kill him or render him immobile until it heals. Any damage to his brain will cause memory loss due to the synapse connections in the brain being severed and replaced.
○ Efficient in hand to hand combat:
Brandon can fight on par with skilled fighters. He is not however able to contend with the likes of Batman or Deathstroke.
○ Peak human endurance:
When in his natural human form Brandon's strength, speed and stamina are at the peak of human capability.
○ Animal empathy:
The ability to sense the presence of surrounding animals, it also allows him to understand their ways of communication fully, allowing communication with them and translation to human terms and language. He also has enhanced empathy in general thanks to this.
○ Enhanced senses:
Due to his ability to change form and natural self preservation, his anatomy has improved allowing for stronger senses. For example his sense of smell is stronger than that of a dog. He can change his anatomy to increase/decrease his senses as necessary.
[Weakness information]
○ Hit the brain, Jim.:
Despite his regenerative properties his brain is his weak spot. Any damage to his brain will cause memory loss due to the synapse connections in the brain being severed and replaced, the more damage the less memory he retains. Enough damage can make it shut down until the cells regroup and replace, rendering BB in a comatose state until healed. Destroying 70% or more of his brain will kill him indefinitely.
○ Extremely susceptible to mind control/manipulation:
Due to beast boys genetic make up he has a relatively unstable brain. This makes him extremely susceptible to mind control and manipulation. When under full mind control he can under go forced transformations
