Chuck Carstairs

Chuck Carstairs is Dave's business partner from the rich side of Hoop 'n Holler. He is one of the minor antagonists in the Blazin' Trails series, with his main role being Dave's foil in the Protector arc.
==History==
When his factory was going out of business, he merged his company with Dave's, and by doing so, he recovered from his losses and became one of the richest men in town next to Dave, who became his business partner and friend. He and Dave get beat up by Ricochet after they dress down Droop-a-Long in front of most of the town and make him cry, which brings them into trouble. Angered, Dave decides to get revenge on both Ricochet and Droop-a-Long by having Ricochet lose his job as sheriff and having his men kill Droop-a-Long. Chuck, although just as sour and angry, doesn't really agree with Dave's plans, but he goes along with them anyway.
==Personality==
Although he's not much of a talker like Dave, Chuck doesn't hide his rudeness or sarcastic nature under a facade like Dave does; in fact, it's mentioned that he's the one of the unlikable people in town, to the point that it's a miracle that Dave tolerates him. He can talk a good fight, but when push comes to shove, he almost immediately cowers away. Between him and Dave, he is the lesser of the two evils, and he appears to have more of a conscience (which is what Jeb uses against him in jail) although he is capable of being just as bad as Dave is.
