Chris Richardson
“Shit, this is all for real isn’t it? And I thought my life was fucked up before.” - Chris to RoeChris Liam Richardson is a male human and starts off as Roe's best friend. He has the potential to be one of the main characters in the story, as well as a potential romance option. There is also the possibility to either send him away for his own safety, which he will then never be heard from again. Or, he can die due to Raum slitting his throat. He first appears in episode one, season one No Good Deed. If he is killed or left behind, then his last appearance is in the next episode, Abandoned.
Physical Description
Body Features
Chris is a Caucasian male described as having short wavy brown hair, deep blue eyes, and a beard that alternates between being a regular beard and sometimes stubble. He’s in shape with an athletically tone body despite his love for junk food and his smoking habits. He’s proud of his body, and it’s not strange to find him showing it off.
Specialized Equipment
Being one of the only two humans in the group immediately puts Chris at a disadvantage. But he doesn’t wallow in this (well not the entire time anyway) and actually becomes a valuable member of the team over time. Thanks to his past training, and curiosity in the matter, Chris learns how to wield two guns at the same time, becoming the best shot in the group.
Chris’s other skills involve mixology, songwriting, as well as intermediate talent in playing the guitar.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Chris was born in a nice upper middle-class, suburban neighborhood in Knoxville, Tennessee. His household was very traditional, and his parents, Martha and Ryan Richardson, both held conservative mindsets. Along with this, Chris went to a predominantly white middle school, though his high school saw a healthy mix of all races. It is during this time where his father attempted to sway Chris the most, continuously saying racist, sexist, and homophobic things about Chris’s classmates and teammates on the regular. His mother did little to hush his father, and though she was traditional, she did not seem to share the same views.
Chris describes his grandfather as being the one silver lining of being at home. Chris idolized his grandfather who was a Vietnam war veteran, as well as gay. A piece of news that Chris found out only a year or two before his grandfather's death. Chris owes his love for classic rock to his grandfather, as well as his ability to use a gun and his shifted perspective of the world. After his grandfather died, Chris went into a deep depression and did everything he could to get a scholarship to a school far away from his parents.
Chris and Roe met during freshman year after partnering up in their freshman orientation class. From there, the two grew close and during sophomore year became suitemates, while for their remaining college years they moved into an apartment together.
Season One
When Roe finds themselves in trouble thanks to saving Sydero Theron, Chris becomes worried and attempts to get to the bottom of Roe’s disappearance. If Roe tells Chris to meet them, then Chris goes to meet up with them, otherwise FBI agents, Petri and Langston interview Chris, before kidnapping him to use as bait against Roe. If Chris does go to meet Roe, Roe meets up and the two of them get captured by the FBI agents. There is no route where Chris is not kidnapped and goes back home. When Roe attempts to save him, the wrong decision can lead to either Chris having his throat sliced by Raum or, with Sydero's help, save him. If killed, Chris’s body is used to stage a murder, with Roe being the culprit. If he survives, then Roe makes the decision to either bring Chris along or to have him disappear. If Chris disappears, his whereabouts become unknown, as well as what he’s doing. If brought along, Chris is permanently added to the group and becomes a companion. Throughout season one, Chris is more of a liability than actual help. In Charmed, he continues to doubt that the supernatural world is real and constantly points out how Sydero (and possibly Roe depending on how they answer) are just crazy. He only believes them when faeries appear. Though he trains alongside Roe, and even shows promise with a gun, he is still antsy and not sure about his new life. Always feeling out of place and feeling like he’s getting in the way. In For the Crown, Chris gets upset as he realizes that Roe is falling into this life much more natural than he. He also shows frustration in himself at being chosen by BB, the Bladenboro Beast, and being unable to help himself or the others in changing him back. He believes himself too weak. This further comes out in Life Without Parole when Chris is separated from the others and realizes that demons are after him. He fears for his life, knowing that he can’t fight them. Though he does have this realization, this also gives him resolve and pushes him to learn as much as he can.Season Two
Sexuality
Chris is originally straight, and remains so if romanced by a female Roe or not romanced whatsoever. If a nonbinary or male Roe does begin romancing Chris, even if they do not commit, Chris begins to question his sexuality and soon discovers that he's pansexual.
His journey to this understanding is a long and arduous one filled with him going back and forth between stating that he simply respects and admires Roe to
