Chadwick Brandon III, call-sign “Neptune”, was one of four lieutenants of Molly "Jupiter" Henderson in the Shadow Tide season.

Biography
Chadwick Brandon III was a flight engineer at the time of recruitment and was activated as part of The Division's first wave. Chadwick spent a lot of time setting up a critical infrastructure for the Joint Task Force in the Base of Operations, including a set of backup generators that could guarantee stable JTF power and communications. At some point after the failed evacuation in Manhattan, Chadwick disappeared from duty and the Base of Operations suffered a catastrophic disaster when two generators exploded, killing 8 JTF staff members and injuring 23 more. Investigations into the incident indicated that the generators had been tampered with and that there was deliberate sabotage behind it.

Following Aaron Keener's death at the hands of The Division, Neptune and his rogue agents were planning an attack on Washington, D.C.

History
Brandon was activated to contain civil unrest in the early days and to secure the midtown quarantine zone. He ran into another Division agent, Mike upon activation. The two then worked as a team and formed a special bond together.

Besides securing the quarantine zone, Brandon helped the JTF setting up critical infrastructure at their Base of Operations, including generators.

During the Dark Zone retreat, Brandon and his partner Mike were surrounded with multiple Rioters and with no JTF to support them, Mike then died in the Dark Zone and Brandon escaped.

Disheartened by the loss of his close comrade, Brandon held a big grudge towards the JTF for not helping him and Mike back in the Dark Zone. Brandon then sabotaged the generators that he helped built in the JTF Base of Operations, killing and injuring several JTF members. After that, Brandon disappeared.

A rogue Division agent, Molly Henderson (callsign Jupiter), found Brandon and reached out to him. She suggested a team-up, which Brandon refused. Henderson then told him to think about it more and reach out to her if he changed his mind.

Still hurting, Brandon decided to do something and reached out to Henderson. Henderson asked if Brandon was fully committed, Brandon said he was, which prompted Henderson to give him a watch to take a look at. The watch was provided by rogue agent Aaron Keener and contains the latest feature: the Rogue Network.

Now part of Henderson's rogue agents' cell, Henderson left New York City for Washington, D.C., along with Brandon and two other rogue agents. The operation to attack Washington, D.C. was conducted by Aaron Keener, whom the Brandon and the four rogue agents in his cell have strong ties with. Before leaving for Washington, D.C., Keener asked his associate, rogue Division agent Vivian Conley to give Henderson and her squad some Cleaners for backup. Henderson gave Brandon a squad of Conley's Cleaners to carry out the operation in Washington, D.C.

After Brandon arrived in Washington, D.C., he and the Cleaners fought against the Outcasts by fighting over control points and several areas because the Outcasts are infected with the Green Poison. Agent Alani Kelso discovered Henderson's rogue agents' cell through Keener's Watch. The agent that killed Keener is now tasked to hunt down Henderson's rogue agents' cell. The agent arrived back in D.C., took out several Cleaners and Outcasts occupied locations and finally located Brandon. Brandon put up fierce resistance, but would be taken down by the agent.
