Brand, whose full name is Brennan Brand, is a central character in Neil Strauss's non-fiction book, "The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists." He serves as the primary mentor to Strauss, who adopts the pseudonym "Style" throughout the book.

Brand is portrayed as a highly skilled and successful pickup artist, known for his charismatic personality and mastery of various seduction techniques. He guides Style through the complex world of pickup artistry, teaching him strategies for approaching women, building rapport, and ultimately achieving romantic or sexual success. Brand's teachings emphasize understanding female psychology, self-improvement, and adopting a confident persona.

While presented as a real individual, Brand's character and the events surrounding him in "The Game" have been subject to debate and skepticism. Some critics question the accuracy and ethical implications of his methods, as well as the overall portrayal of the pickup artist community.
