Alex is typically cheerful and respectful with a large dose of cynicism and a very fine attention to detail. He cares deeply for the people under his care but, due to his working history, he tries to keep an element of detachment and this has led to some individuals he has worked with thinking that he can be a little cold. In truth, however, it is more of an in built defense mechanism to ensure that he retains a sense of perspective and detachment form his work. | Alex is typically cheerful and respectful with a large dose of cynicism and a very fine attention to detail.

Having spent the vast majority of his life working outside of Starfleet he is more used to working outside of a traditional chain of command than others might like and has a general indifference to rank. He is generally respectful, however, and he tends to play along. The main exception to this is within counselling sessions as he feels rank has no place in that environment. In addition, Brodie tends to address people by the first name rather than surname or rank. | Having spent the vast majority of his life working outside of Starfleet he is more used to working outside of a traditional chain of command than others might like and has a general indifference to rank.

John Martin, 1816]]Brodie occupies senior officers quarters aboard the [[USS Thor]] on Deck Five, close to the Arboretum. They contain the usual mundane items such as clothing and minor personal effects. Several PADDs typically litter his desk and comprise history books from various cultures as well as psychological, political, theological, and legal texts. In terms of non-fiction he prefers thrillers and intrigues. | [[Image:SunUponGideon.jpg|150px|right|thumb|Joshua Commanding the Sun to Stand Still upon Gideon.
