The Charlotte Family plays a crucial role in the Big Mom Pirates. As the matriarch, Charlotte Linlin, also known as Big Mom, leads the crew. The family members, especially the children, make up a significant part of the crew, including officers and the most capable fighters. The crew's hierarchy is similar to other pirate groups, with Big Mom as the captain and the Three Sweet Commanders working directly under her. Other children of the Charlotte Family and combatants answer to them. The crew also includes tens of thousands of soldiers, from homies to people of various humanoid races.
