Phillip Broyles (Lance Reddick)Broyles is a Special Agent-in-Charge with the Department of Homeland Security and the head of the multi-agency task force known as Fringe Division, whose primary directive is to investigate the growing number of odd and otherwise unexplainable phenomena linked to a series of crimes and dangerous incidents recently reported and witnessed around the world. He has a no-nonsense, by-the-book demeanor on the surface, especially in the presence of other powerful figures, but is willing to bend the rules in order to catch criminals and solve cases.Broyles initially brings in agents with a variety of skill sets from a number of government teams to assist on a case, including Olivia Dunham with whom he has a tense history. At first dismissive of Dunham,who was the FBI liaison on the case, Broyles becomes impressed by her drive and quick, analytical thinking during the investigation. Dunham's out-of-the-box thinking inspired Broyles to officially recruit her to the Fringe Division team.Broyles is a stoic figure with little tolerance for those who would waste his time. He also appears to have a significant business relationship with Nina Sharp, executive director and Chief Operating Officer of Massive Dynamic.Background: While not much information is known about Broyles's past, he has significant military experience and was once married.
