Yuri Briar is one of the recurring characters of the SPY x FAMILY series. He is Yor Forger's younger brother and a twenty-year-old man who works in the State Security Service. He keeps his job at the SSS a secret from his sister and instead pretends to be a normal civil servant and diplomat at the foreign ministry. Yuri is a very handsome, elegant, and fairly tall man in his early twenties, with a slender, straight frame. He has a very small cowlick on top of his straight black hair with uneven bangs. Like his sister, Yuri has upturned red eyes. He was once described to be cute by Millie Myers after Yor showed a picture of him to her. When at work, Yuri wears the SSS's standard uniform. When going outside for undercover missions, he wears a blue bomber jacket with a white shirt underneath, a tan-colored cap, black pants, and brown boots with laces. Outside of work, Yuri wears a light brown trench coat over an all-black suit, a white long-sleeved shirt, and a dark blue tie, along with black gloves and shoes. During these occasions, he typically wears a black wristwatch on his left arm. Yuri's casual attire when helping Anya study consisted of a black long-sleeved pocket shirt, the pocket being gray with a black and white eye at the top reminiscent of the SSS's symbol, and blue jeans. As a child and up to college, Yuri had slightly shorter hair. Yuri has a sister complex, and even at an early age, he would be doing everything he could to get Yor to praise him with affection. Though this could be due to his mother dying at a very early stage in his life, causing him to get very attached to Yor as a mother figure. Just the thought of Yor hating him or in despair brings him great distress. When Yuri was young, he hated himself for not being able to help her as she provided for them, which is why he began studying everything as much as he could so that he could be of help. Due to his smarts, he eventually landed a job at the foreign ministry and, shortly after, the Secret Police, which gave him the power to protect his sister. When on the job, Yuri is shown to have a very appealing demeanor, even when extracting suspects for information. Yuri truly believes he is protecting his country, though he mostly does it for Yor's benefit, not wanting traitors and scumbags breathing the same air as her. Just as he is passionate for his sister, Yuri is very patriotic, as, when discussing enemies like "Twilight," he swiftly drops his cheery façade and becomes colder, irritable, and quick-tempered. Yuri also values the importance of family, immediately resorting to violence when he learns of a suspect's excuse for his affair. Idiosyncratically, Yuri loses all his intelligence when it comes to his sister, completely believing Yor's excuses of "forgetting" to tell him about her marriage with Loid for a year and gives in to almost any request she asks for. Despite his harsh and cruel job, Yuri is shown to have a level of empathy. He quickly got angry towards the way Franklin Perkin bullied a group of children, but after understanding the conditions of him and his family, he assured the journalist that his father will receive financial assistance while arresting him. Franklin posed the question about who the true disgrace is after Yuri stated that he "saw no reason for Franklin's family to witness his disgrace." Yuri responded by stating how he would never "cause his sister pain," implying that his sister complex overrides his morals. Because of his near-inhuman endurance, Yuri has a tendency to disregard his own well-being, even when he is sick or seriously injured. He would even eat Yor's awful cooking and continue doing so until he was forcibly stopped. Yuri also tends to overestimate the limitations of his current capabilities when enduring lethal injuries, believing that he will always get through. For this, he is scolded by his co-worker Chloe, who reminds Yuri that he can still die and that he needs to take care of himself better. However, Yuri misinterpreted her advice and has begun working to improve his endurance instead.
