Brennon is a menace on the shipping lanes of the Golden Circle, but seems to avoid anything requiring more than one ship, or flying Amber's official royal/trade flag(s). He's a privateer, a smuggler, and a pirate, and has an enchanted ship. He will haunt the less patrolled sea lanes of the Golden Circle for months, then vanish for most of a year. Sometimes his ship has been seen doing legitimate business.
**He has never been directly to Amber or Rebma, or even to shadows and waters right next door to Amber.**
He never carries or takes slaves, his prisoners are always ransomed for profit instead of killed, and his goods quickly become untraceable, making it hard to prosecute him even if his ship could be caught. He has no personal flag, and carries a packet of letters of marque making most of his seizures "legitimate seizures of war".
There probably isn't anything else known about him from Amber castle, and even that much is only if people take an interest in the maritime trade. He's a rogue but a man of principle; no prisoners have reported starvation, rape, or excessively rough handling. Small/light but expensive cargo is his main target, and he has had a number of close calls and near-impossible escapes. He can apparently smell a trap from across several miles of open sea, much less in port.
