William Joseph "Billy Joe" Brentwood (Exec)

To most of the people he meets, Billy Joe Brentwood is still the congenial, backslapping, loudmouthed executive in charge of the Dallas-based Petrochem's Night City office; a spinner of good-natured fish stories and tall tales of a rowdy youth in the Texas Free State. Those a little closer know the truth. Behind the high-profile, free-spending exterior is a ruthless, ambitious Exec who cares little who he cuts down on his way to the top, as long as he doesn't besmirch his public image. Brentwood is rumored to have his fingers in many pies, including local and national politics. His lifestyle has made him no stranger to scandal- he's a favorite target of blackmailers and investigative reporters, but many of the people trying to coerce him, or expose his shadier side, have turned up face down in the harbor or disappeared completely.
