The daughter of Brabantio in William Shakespeare's play "Othello" is Desdemona. She is a noblewoman who elopes with Othello, a Moorish general in the Venetian army, which causes significant conflict with her father, Brabantio. Desdemona's marriage serves as a central plot point in the play, highlighting themes of love, race, and betrayal.
How did Brabantio find out about his daughter's elopement
Brabantio discovers his daughter Desdemona's elopement with Othello when he is informed by Roderigo, who is upset over Desdemona's choice to marry Othello. Roderigo, motivated by his own feelings for Desdemona, alerts Brabantio that his daughter has secretly married the Moor. This revelation leads Brabantio to confront Othello and seek a resolution, feeling betrayed and angry over his daughter's actions.
Desdemona, daughter of Brabantio, was Othello's wife.
Brabantio warns Othello that if his daughter, Desdemona, deceived him in order to marry Othello, then she can just as easily deceive Othello.
Brabantio is a Venetian senator who is Desdemona's father. He becomes Othello's father-in-law when Desdemona elopes with Othello in the beginning of the play. Brabantio is very unhappy with their sudden marriage. He accuses Othello of performing witchcraft on his daughter to make her fall in love with her. Othello denies this. Brabantio warns Othello that if his daughter deceived him, she can deceive Othello as well. In Act V, it is discovered that Brabantio died broken-hearted as a result of Desdemona's marriage to Othello.

Brabantio disapproves of Othello and the relationship he has with Brabantio's daughter Desdemona. This is not because Othello is not worthy of Desdemona because he is a much respected officer, but because he is a Moor (in that time an African) and therefore considered beneath the Italian people.
It wrecks it. Brabantio has nothing further to do with Desdemona and we do not hear from him again.

Iago manipulates Brabantio through a combination of insinuation, suggestion, and manipulation of information. He plants seeds of doubt in Brabantio's mind about his daughter Desdemona's loyalty and fidelity by using racist language and implying that she has been seduced by Othello. Iago strategically uses Brabantio's love for his daughter and societal norms to provoke a strong emotional reaction and manipulate him into taking action against Othello.
Brabantio is Desdemona's father.
Othello - Act 1, Scene 2 BRABANTIO O thou foul thief, where hast thou stow'd my daughter?
Brabantio is Desdemona's father. Iago and Roderigo wake him to tell him that Desdemona is running off with Othello. Using filthy and racist language, Iago hopes to anger Brabantio against Othello, which he does.
When Brabantio warns the Moor, "Look to her, Moor, if thou hast eyes to see; / She has deceived her father, and may thee" it is merely foreshadowing at this point and nothing more. Certainly, she had betrayed her father, but she has shown she is very loyal in the process also. Brabantio knows nothing of Iago's machinations and he even thought that it was spells and witchcraft that had stolen his daughter. Desdemona telling Brabantio that it was her choice probably just made him very furious. It cannot be argued that it was accurate or inaccurate-Brabantio was merely lashing out to assuage his anger.
