Hello, Charlie "Chip" Potts.
» Is there anything you would rather be called?
"Charlie is preferred, but everyone calls me Chip instead. It's really annoying, I've been getting called that since I was a kid and it's well and truly stuck with me. Either way, I don't care."
» Great, now that we've got that covered. How old are you?
"I just turned twenty, so old enough to do most things. And then some."
» You know, has anyone ever told you that you look exactly like...
"Tom Felton? Cool, that guy is a badass too then?"

Let's talk about your personality.
» What are a few of your favorite things?
"Anything "anarchy." That includes punk music, riots, graffiti as an art-form, standing up to the authorities and generally causing mayhem. I hate order - what can I say, I'm a troubled guy. I hate that the government think they can control us and use their little "officers" to run around trying to beat the shit out of people for standing up for their rights. I also like to burn stuff, and I don't mind a good scuffle - I've spent many a night in the cells as a result. Who cares? Let them try to break me. We'll see who cracks first. I also like chilled beer, fast cars and fit girls."
»That's interesting. Is there anything you absolutely dislike?
"The cops - they're the bane of my existance, and vice versa. I've had ridiculous amounts of run-ins with them and I think they're getting really sick of seeing me. I might as well move into the jail cell for good, seeing as I spend more time there than at home. I hate it when my mom fusses over me, especially in public. It doesn't happen so much nowadays though - she thinks I'm a total disappointment. Well, who can blame her really? I rarely visit, and whenever she does actually hear from me, it's through my five minute phonecall asking for her to post some bail money. To be honest, I think she's sick of me too. I'm pretty selfish.
» Hm, what is your greatest fear?
"Nothing. I'm a man, and a fearless one at that. If you're not tough these days, you're nothing. That's what I've learnt."
» Yeah, that is scary. Do you have any dreams for the future?
"I had high hopes and aspirations when I was younger, but right now my only wish is to rebel against society and do things for "me", and only "me." Why should I please everyone else?"
» Wow, I hope you succeed. Can you tell me a little bit about yourself?
"I grew up in the village with my mom and dad, the youngest of 12 brothers and sisters - yeah, my parents must've been at it like rabbits, I know *cringe.* Anyway, I was always kinda adventurous as a kid; nothing fazed me. I made my mom so proud - I was smart, funny, adorable and caring. Not to mention cute (don't forget the cute). She always said I would do something great with my life, but after father left us for some young tart things just seemed to fall to pieces.
Mom struggled to cope, and although us kids tried to help, she had fallen into some sort of depression. It affected us all, especially me. I used to look up to my dad; he was my idol. It felt like he'd stabbed me in the back the day he walked out. After that, I just wasn't the same. I grew distant, stubborn and selfish; I was incredibly bitter and no longer cared about other people. I'd run off so many times, stay out late and make mother and my older siblings worry about me on purpose. I'd fallen in with the wrong crowd and quit school - everything I could have done with my life, everything great was a far-off memory by that point.
I argued and fought with everyone and anyone, especially my loved ones, who despite it all, never gave up on me. Then I left for the city when I was old enough - took up work in an old family friend's garage, fixing up cars. You might have heard of him, Maurice? His daughter Belle acts a lot like an older sister to me, and we get on well. I respect them both, to be honest."

So far so good. Now for history.
» So tell me, where are you from? What did you think of it?
"I lived in the village, on the outskirts of Faraway, but now I spend most of my time in the city. It's alright, but it's more fun being chased around town by the cops than it is hanging around a market place or picking apples."
» Do you have any other family? Parents? Siblings? Extended? What do you think about them?
"My mom and my older siblings. I don't really spend a lot of time with my brothers and sisters - they're all older and have families of their own now, spread out across the country. I still see mom alot, but even she seems to be growing tired of my bad ways. I feel kinda bad, because I love her but I only think about myself and that hurts her. It's not like I mean to do it, I just have a lot of issues."
» What is your worst memory/memories?
"After dad left, and seeing my mother cry. It was kinda devastating, because she was always the strong one. She had to be, for all of us."
» What is your best memory/memories?
"When I was younger, before the split, the whole family used to spend the summer having picnics in the park and playing games. I miss that sense of closeness, but I know it's never gonna be the same so I don't think on it too much."
» Where are you now? What are you doing with your life?
"I'm working at Maurice's garage as a mechanic by day, dodging the police by night, committing offences, flirting with danger and basically being a BAMF. You got a problem with that?"
