Character Bio[]
Brian, sometimes known as "Gappie", was a young boy living in Fort Kerium, presumably with his parents. Together with his classmate Clorg, Brian used to tease Wild Child because of his Dingo upbringing. Even after Wild Child helped find a cure for the sudden illness brought on by the pollen of the Fever Flower, an illness from wich boty Brian and Clorg suffered, the two young bullies were not very grateful to Wild Child. However, by that time Wild Child had learned to deal with their attitude and accept it. (Call of the Wild)
