Charlotte "Charlie" McGrath is the eldest daughter of Declan and Camila McGrath, a mob boss in South Soffit, and the twin sister to Eddy McGrath. She handles the more covert side of her father's "family business", while Eddy covers the face of the business, and has been primed to take over after their father passes. Tough and tomboyish, Charlie keeps herself guarded and holds very few among her close counsel. She is one of eight children, with a very large extended family.
Charlie's father is currently very ill and bedridden, seemingly from a sort of magickal poisoning. She and Eddy are also working to discover who might be causing this. Current leads point to The Red Hand, as they also deal in moving magickal artifacts and Eddy has been dabbling in that realm for the past few years.

Personal history
Charlie's family has spent years cleaning up the streets of South Soffit, with her father acting as a bit of a Robin Hood-esque character to the people in this very poor district of Newfaire. Charlie rebelled against her mother's wishes for her to be the Lady of the the family, and at 12 years old began learning from her father how to take over the family business. From that point on, she began learning how to fight along with her schooling.
When Charlie was 16, her family life all but imploded as a result of a smear article written by Pierce Hunter. The article alleged that her father was having an affair with Natalie Blanc, a well-known owner of The Delicate Touch brothel in Red Lamp. Her mother was devastated and this lie nearly tore their family apart. As it turned out, Natalie Blanc is actually Declan McGrath's half-sister, making her Charlie's aunt. Charlie's grandfather had had a wandering eye in his youth.
Education
Charlie's education extend through high school, and she was also tutored in reading by Arthur Hurley, as she had struggled for years due to her dyslexia. Her home education has also included close-quarters fighting and the minutia of running an underground crime ring.
Mental Trauma
Charlie carries a deep secret that not even her own brother is aware of. This may be revealed in its own time.
Morality & Philosophy
All that matters to Charlie is her family business and legacy, which means expanding their territory and snuffing out competition.
