Bret Kamhold (Gerosha Gaming Universe)

Bret Kamhold is a Frontliner cabal boss featuring in the Swappernetters Frontliner Story Pack for The Sims 4.

Skills
Canonically, Bret's skills would be similar to those of his Earth-G7 counterpart.

In The Sims 4, his skills acquired through gameplay are Charisma, Comedy, Cooking, Entrepreneur, Fabrication, Fitness, Handiness, Logic, Media Production, Mixology, Piano, Programming, Research and Debate, Violin, Wellness, and Writing. His file in the pack may not reflect those skills, but they can be added back quickly using the MC Command Center mod.

Character bio
Kamhold was one of the original recruits to the Navyrope Society, being there with Vince Finton as early as 2009. He even aided Vince Finton during the rescue of Tiffany Sterlie from Garret Whaling in 2014, and further played a role in assisting with the mess of dealing with several corrupt CPS agents. He joined the Swappernetter Society in November of 2019, just a month shy of the Battle for Denison, in which Vince saved the lives of Candi McArthur and Dolly Malestrom.

He maintained a watchful eye over any signs of government corruption, and became seen as something of an extremist doomsday prepper, even by Swappernetter standards. To his grief, he was largely proven right when the Chrome Kite took over. His time with Vince, seeing what he'd seen, hardened Kamhold with anger, and also filled his soul with fear. He witnessed what evil the naivety and apathy of mankind could enable.

He took for himself a well-hidden base of operations, and network of safehouses, usually connecting to catacombs via run-down homes along the outskirts of Little Rock. Kamhold recruited any Frontliners to work for him that were brave enough to accept his assignments. He was naturally willing to hire Jordan Sterlie on as a regular, given their shared history. While he would give assignments from time to time to the Twirlflame Trio, he understood that they were more willing to accept assignments regularly from Trista, since she was less suspected by the Chrome Kite of being a Frontliner boss than Kamhold was.

Kamhold operated until 2031, when Bliksemhek and the regime both went on a killing sprees to take out as many Frontliner cabals as they could detect. Part of the reason for the Twirlflames' actions upon the Great Battle for Little Rock had to do with ensuring that Kamhold's sacrifice - and that of all other fallen Swappernetters - was not in vain.

Personality
While also involved in Bunnywork and Mancerwork, Bret Kamhold emphasizes Roosterwork and Mousework, while allowing some time for Bluepaxwork. Being a former Navyrope Enforcer helped shape Kamhold's more aggressive approach. Unlike Clarion and Hassler, who take pains to maintain a surface level of legitimacy, Kamhold is a shameless pariah, always in hiding.

He never shows his face on broadcasts, always using voice distortion and a Navyrope helmet. His Bunnywork is primarily focused on maintaining contact with Outzoner Navyrope Society members, to keep them and the Swappernetters updated.

In The Sims 4, his aspiration is set to Best-Selling Author. He has attributes of Perfectionist, Hot-Headed, and Bookworm. His additional traits are Muser, Entrepreneur, and Artist.

Trivia

 * Much like with Trista, Bret was inspired heavily by Kevin Conroy's depiction of the elder Bruce Wayne in Batman Beyond. But while Trista as a character was softened up, to make her comparable to Merc or Noah from the Mirror's Edge franchise, Kamhold retained Bruce's edginess.
