and one of the youngest and most experienced pilots.

He meets Henry Stickmin for the first time after Galeforce asks for his assistance in bringing down the notorious Toppat Clan and completing his mission for the Government or helping Henry escape The Wall, Charles is tasked with a new objective; to defeat the Toppat Clan, who plan to take themselves and their gems on a space station by rocket, and never be found, free to invade any place on Earth with ease without worry of governments trying to bring them down. Charles Calvin appears as the deuteragonist of Infiltrating the Airship and Completing the Mission, and the tritagonist of Fleeing the Complex. Depending on Henry's choices, Charles can become one of Henry's best friends (if allied with the Government), a neutral ally (if Henry goes rogue), or an enemy (if Henry becomes the leader of the Toppats).

In Infiltrating the Airship, he appears as the deuteragonist of Government Supported Private Investigator, the tritagonist of Relentless Bounty Hunter and Lightning Quick Larcenist, a major antagonist in Pure Blooded Thief, and the secondary antagonist of Rapidly Promoted Executive.

In Fleeing the Complex he appears as the deuteragonist in International Rescue Operative, and an unseen minor character in all other pathways.

In Completing the Mission, he appears as the deuteragonist of Valiant Hero and Special BROvert Ops, the tritagonist of Triple Threat, Pardoned Pals and Master Bounty Hunter, and the secondary antagonist of Toppat Recruits and Toppat 4 Life.

Charles is best known for his "greatest plans", which involve him trying to crash his helicopter (or another military-issued vehicle) into something. He is one of the most well-known characters in the series and is considered a fan- favorite by many. In all his appearances, Charles wears a red headset and has red shoes. His headphones suffered some damage in "Valiant Hero" due to Charles crashing into the Toppat Orbital Station.

He has never been seen without his red headset. The headset has been shown to be a versatile communications device; able to call in reinforcements and communicate directly with phones. Charles is a young and experienced competent Ace Pilot for the Government. In the Triple Threat route, Charles is able to stop his chopper mid-flight so the rotor blades don't chop up Henryand Ellie as they leave the sabotaged rocket. This is an incredibly difficult maneuver to pull off and he does it without a hitch. Because of his abilities as a pilot, General Galeforce seems to always trust him with missions yet more often than not, he has tendencies to screw things over when it comes to assisting Henry. Not to mention his knack to crash his helicopter into Henry. Despite this, compared to some of the more intelligent characters with various and questionable morals in the series, Charles is easily one of the more noble characters despite his silliness, and is willing to sacrifice himself as shown in the Valiant Hero route.

Charles has a tendency to try and make small talk and stumble his words which shows that he's more sociable than Henry and much more nonchalant about missions despite the known severity of them. He also has plenty of background knowledge on Government weapons and other such tools.

If Henry sides with the Government, Charles shows complete confidence and trust in Henry in any missions they team up in, showing how loyal he is to a close friend. He is also shown to take things literally at times, demonstrated when he shut the power off the Airship when asked, without realizing the airship needs power to fly.

Charles is also able to remain calm in stressful or dangerous situations, keeping his composure and not sounding worried. A good example of this is in the Special BROvert Opsroute, where he loses control of his helicopter while trying to snipe someone, and doesn't sound panicked in the slightest while trying to regain control; Henry actually looks more worried than Charles sounds.

Charles is an amiable, sociable, half-witted yet intelligent and above average pilot who firmly sticks with his side, but does have a more open mind considering he put his faith in Henry in the Pardoned Pals route despite Henry going rogue and stealing the Romanian Ruby, and gave Henry a chance to side with him over joining the Toppats or surrendering to the Wall. At some point in his life, Charles joined the Air Force and became a helicopter pilot, going on many special ops missions for the Government, becoming one of the most experienced pilots in the process. When Captain Galeforce sends Henry on his mission, Charles gives him an earpiece and serves as Henry's handler. After Henry breaks into the airship, Charles helps him cross a large gap by using a mechanical robot. The next room has a guard who is having trouble using his key card in the door. Charles assists Henry by using one of his gadgets to melt the guard's bones. After Henry gathers the evidence he needs, Charles reveals the next room has too many armed guards and suggests Henry use the ventilation duct. There is a lot of electricity blocking the path, but Henry orders Charles to reroute the power to a darkroom, ruining Al Kohaul's photos. Henry can now safely reach the cargo bay, where two more men are blocking his path. Charles thus tells Henry to click a button on his earpiece, which turns it into a force gun. Henry takes out the two men and Charles brings the chopper near the bay doors. The Right Hand Man comes into the cargo bay and attempts to stop Henry, but Henry is able to use the force gun to blast himself to the chopper. He turns the evidence over to Charles, and the Toppat Clan is arrested.

During this same path, when Henry has to get across the gap, Henry can choose for Charles to directly help him. Charles tries to do so by crashing his helicopter into the Airship, leading to a fail.
