Brian Griffin

Brian Griffin is a cultured but cynical dog who is stoic and deadpan, and serves as the voice of reason to the family, ironically managing to be the most "human" of all of them. He is a less-than-adept lazy, procrastinating writer struggling to find himself, attempting essays, novels, screenplays, and newspaper articles. He has worked as a pornographic film director, as a US Soldier, and as a Police Officer. He is quite pretentious and is a self-absorbed narcissist. He is egotistical and severely egomaniacal (this may be because of his bad behavior, which he continuously blames on somebody else rather than himself). He treats his fellow family members poorly and commits various crimes. He and Stewie are the most intelligent of all of the members of the Griffin family. However, because of his ego and sometimes being as reckless as Peter, Brian is less intelligent than he makes himself at to be. He attended Brown University and studied technology and physics, but did not graduate.
