Charles Badactor

WPO (Reign Timeline)

## Overview

Charles Badactor was born December 19, 2000. He was an avid CS:GO player, tax evader, and served as the first president of the New United States of America.

## Early Life

Charles Badactor was born on December 19, 2000. Not much is known about his early life, but it's thought that he came out of the womb playing Counter Strike: Global Offense.

## Presidential Aspirations (*Dawn of Wilson*)

Charles Badactor, being fed up with the state of partisan politics, decided to run for president in the 2070 election as a third party candidate from the MLG Party. He campaigned on the promise that he would make time travel widely available to the public. Due to the assassination of PPD candidate Abner Abs, other major party candidate, Nerrd W.T. Sideburns from the WPO decided to resign, allowing Badactor to become president, where he made time travel a public resource.

## WPO/PPD Encounter (*When*)

Back in the year 2016, Charles Badactor was playing CSGO in his room as he often did, when he was ambushed by a WPO agent named Agent 12. He was told that his future presidency caused the world to fall into chaos due to his lack of restrictions on time travel. Charles tried to escape, but could not outrun 12. The cyborg was then attacked by PPD agents: Lemonjello, Oranjello, and Rupert Roberts, who was actually working undercover for the WPO. Lemonjello and Oranjello escaped with Charles and explained what the heck was going on. Rupert reconvened with the team, only to betray them and kidnap Charles. He then teleported away to Charles' backyard in the year 1292, where Rupert was given direct orders by former WPO leader Eye G. Patch to not kill Charles. It turns out, Patch mistakenly called Rupert instead of his wife, a mistake that would save Charles' life.

The PPD gathered their troops and launched an assault on the WPO headquarters to rescue Charles. During the fight, Charles killed Mangonjello, a new PPD recruit, out of fear for his own life. The PPD failed to rescue him, and Charles remained in their captivity until Bentley Wilson and Lemonjello confronted Rupert and Agent 12 one last time. Charles ended the conflict by stating that he would simply refrain from running for president.

### Returned to the Wrong Timeline

Rupert declared he would take Charles back to his proper time, so that he could live a relatively normal life. The two, however, were accidentally drawn into the new timeline due to the convergence point created by Bentley Wilson in 2015. Due to Bentley traveling to 2015 and changing the events of history, Charles was placed in a time where there was already another Charles Badactor. The other Charles was captured by Bentley Wilson and turned into Gay Cowboy.

## Arrested for Tax Evasion (*Reign*)

Charles Badactor continued on with his life as normal in the Reign timeline, until he was confronted once more by Agent 12 during the rule of Amelia and Bentley's empire. Charles then realized that his adventure with the time travelers truly did happen. Agent 12 gave him a mystical key before he left. Before long, Charles was confronted by two Wantis County Bureau of Investigation officers, Cop #1 and Cop #2. He was arrested for tax evasion.

## Journey of the Mind *(The Charleshank Redemption)*

Charles Badactor was thrown into the Wantis County prison, and although he had the magical key that could be used to escape, Charles intended to remain in his unusually nice prison cell and live out the rest of his days as a recluse. In his sleep, Charles was visited by a strange man named Halgernon. Halgernon explained to Charles that he must pass three trials to escape the prison in his mind and fulfill his destiny of becoming president.

In the first trial, The Trial of Leadership, Charles was transported and stranded in the wilderness where he met the astronaut, Milo, who had been stranded there for many years after his moon quest. Charles helped lead Milo out of the wilderness, thus passing the trial, as he was able to see that he could truly become a leader.

The next trial, The Trial of Atonement, was overseen by Lemonjello. Charles recognized the former PPD agent as they reminisced on their adventure together. Lemonjello eventually asked if Charles remembered Mangonjello and showed him a vision of the past. Charles then remembered killing Mangonjello, an event his mind had blocked out for many years. Charles faced his trauma and felt remorse for the death of Mangonjello, thus passing the trial. He was reassured, as a vision of Mangonjello appeared to the two telling Charles that he must not make decisions out of fear, just as he had killed Mangonjello in a moment of fear. Lemonjello sent Charles back to his prison cell.

Having been teleported back to the cell, Halgernon comforted Charles, telling him that Mangonjello's destiny was to preserve his consciousness and lead others to become Guanine Ghosts, but Charles still felt tremendous guilt for killing Mangonjello. Halgernon told Charles that he must learn to forgive himself if he is to fulfill his destiny. The final trial was The Trial of Belonging. Halgernon eventually revealed to Charles that he was in a new timeline, and that he and Rupert were unable to return to their old timeline. Charles struggled to take in such a revelation, but he passed the trial when he insisted that he still had a place in the new timeline and that he truly belonged there. Charles told Hal that he would not make the same mistakes that his future self did in the other timeline, nor would he make the same mistakes he had made in his own life. Halgernon was happy to see that Charles had passed all three trials, and he told Charles to find the new WPO and help them defeat Bentley. Halgernon then disappeared and Charles woke up.

Charles escaped the Wantis prison with the mystical key given to him by Agent 12 and joined up with the WPO heroes to help fight Bentley.

## Presidency and Legacy

After the battle on May 12, 2049, Amelia's empire was dissolved. Charles and the WPO were able to establish the New United States of America, and Charles was instated as President. He vowed to keep time travel regulated and restricted to the public, thus avoiding the conflicts of his 2070 presidency in the old timeline. Charles was well received by the public and helped restore confidence in the government.
