	Brucie indulges in what he calls "juicing" - injecting testosterone allegedly taken from Chilean bull sharks. It has led to excessive 'roid rage, and may account for Brucie's overactive excitement in most situations. He is a steroid user and possible dealer of performance enhancing drugs, something that has resulted in a few encounters with law enforcement.

	In [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]], Brucie's older brother [[Mori Kibbutz]] is introduced. Mori ridicules Brucie to no end, even now that they are both adults. During his appearances in Mori's missions, Brucie's arrogant, self-absorbed and egotistic lifestyle is revealed to be the result of living in his older brother's (figurative) shadow, Mori constantly putting him down and becoming overly competitive. More than once, this results in Brucie quietly sobbing to himself. His bisexuality is also more outwardly hinted at, in the mission [[Ladies Half Price]] when he tries to kiss Luis, even though he very quickly covers his tracks, claiming that he was just checking to see Luis wasn't going to come on to him. He denies his bisexuality in a e-mail he sends to Niko if the player wins a race in the original GTA IV.		In [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]], Brucie's older brother [[Mori Kibbutz]] is introduced.

	Brucie is a successful entrepreneur who runs [[Brucie's Executive Lifestyle Autos]], a garage situated in [[East Hook]], [[Broker]]. He makes a point of flaunting his money and has even started his own website called [[bruciesexecutivelifestyleautos.com\|''Brucie's Executive Lifestyle'']], the actual purpose of which is unknown, but which seems to be a combined blog/lifestyle guide. Brucie is a V.I.P. at [[Maisonette 9]], and has his name laminated on the guest list (It is implied Roman does as well). His favorite place to eat is at the [[Superstar Café\|Superstar Cafe]].

	When Brucie has his shirt off, a Chinese tattoo that reads "我" is visible. This translates to "me", or "I" in English, depending on what context it is being used in Chinese. Brucie has a tattoo on his lower stomach with the words "Mommy" which is only visible in two missions when he has his shirt off. The tattoos are similar to Scott Alexander's (which also read "No. 1" and things like "First", "Winner" and "Best" in Japanese), although Scott says of the tattoos on his website "I have these tattoos not because I see myself as the best or number one, but because [...] every time I look at one of my tattoos, even if I feel tired or ill, it charges me with adrenaline". Also, on his lower back are the two Chinese characters "人妖", the direct translation of which means "human demon", but is a colloquially slang for transsexuals.

	Brucie's attitude towards life has also attracted many friends, including [[Roman Bellic]], who aspire to live like him (Roman and Brucie met through his website). Eventually, Roman introduces Brucie to his cousin Niko, who starts to work for Brucie, as well as forming an "odd couple" friendship (Brucie's attitude of loud, egotistical, self-centered and impulsive are the complete opposite of [[Niko Bellic\|Niko Bellic's]]; nonetheless, the two become good friends over time). Despite his protestations that he is not Russian, Niko is praised by the oblivious Brucie for his "Red Army" fighting and driving skills.

	Brucie is one of the few characters from the original [[Grand Theft Auto IV\|GTA IV]] that actually engages with Luis in extended dialogue, often appearing along with [[Roman Bellic\|Roman]] either inside, or trying to get into, Maisonette 9. During the missions for [[Mori Kibbutz]], light is shined on Mori's and Brucie's relationship as brothers, mostly consisting of Mori ridiculing Brucie at every turn. During the final mission [[No. 3]], Brucie, having taken enough abuse, breaks Mori's nose, finally besting his brother. Towards the end of the game, Brucie awkwardly attempts to kiss Luis, but later denounces it as a test of Luis' masculinity (see above).

			By [[2013]] Brucie is still a successful business man, still selling bull shark testosterone as seen on his website bullsharktestosterone.com. In Grand Theft Auto Online after reaching Rank 17, Brucie will call the GTA Online Protagonist and offer to drop him off bull shark testosterone when called. It will cost the player $500.
