Paranormal Liberation War Arc
Briareos and his brother Gyges were guarding the Bronze Gate, the Mainland Gate of Tartarus prison. Both are concerned about the death of numerous heroes in the battle against the Paranormal Liberation Front, as well as the escape of numerous villains, including Tomura and seven Near High-End Nomu.

To their shock, several of those Nomus appear in front of them, and Briareos immediately Gyges orders the prison's security robots to repel the attack, as he and Gygas shoots their miniguns. One of the Nomu counterattacks, firing the spikes from its body, and manages to kill Briareos.

Quirk
Unknown Multiple Arm Quirk: Briareos possessed a Quirk that appeared to give him ten arms, though it is unknown if the extra arms were retractable or a permanent addition to his body.
