### Type of Character

Misanthropic Cosmic Entity

*"Oh, sweetie… they were only humans."*
―Charlie Corner to an unnamed kitten, and his most infamous quote.

*"The animal kingdom will thrive once more. And when that happens… I am going to obliterate everything!"*
―Charlie Corner explaining his goals[src]
**Charlie Corner** is the secondary antagonist of *Boys vs. Girls 2* and a minor antagonist in *Boys vs. Girls 2 Prelude*, and a member of an ancient race of entities that possess vast matter and energy manipulation abilities, the youngest of his kind, and a member of the Cavaliers of Thornton. A ruthless, sadistic, skillful, and unbelievably manipulative spy, Corner pretended to serve the Armies of Organa while passing information to Natalia Thornton. When Summer Petersen and Helen McKeen attempted to rescue Joshua Petersen during a huge fight at Tower Placement, Corner ambushed the latter and revealed the truth to his adversaries and said he would give them a slow, painful death. However, Petersen pushed him down the stairs. He attempted to lead forces from the International Alliance into the school, but they were all defeated.

In the months that followed the end of the Cavaliers, Corner remained earthbound, and he slipped far into the Darkness. He led a battalion of Imperial troopers during the Battle at the Temple of the Relinquished, where he flew into battle against Summer Petersen, Josh Hogan, and Kayliah Galibraith on an ornithropter and was defeated by the latter by being thrown off his aircraft. His avatar was irreparably damaged and his star presumably imploded as a result, saving billions of lives.

## Biography

### Early existence

Charlie Corner came into existence through extremely enigmatic circumstances. His very origin would remain a mystery to nature although he remembered himself being born unaccompanied, parentless and bodyless; he came into existence as a rectangular and single-celled being belonging to an ancient race of entities — living planets, stars, moons, and comets — that possess vast matter and energy manipulation abilities, as the youngest of his kind. Despite spending his early years dwelling in extreme loneliness, he discovered the ability to manipulate molecules and matter, which led him to construct a protective core around himself. By 2020, at which point he had aged to the point of a biological preteen, he had successfully built enormous layers of gas, energy, and fire over the core which evolved into a star itself.

Nevertheless, young Charlie hated what he was and wished he were a humanoid organism. So he created a biological humanoid avatar, which was an extension of his consciousness, to explore the earth to learn and experience all of the civilizations he encountered. Why he chose Earth is unknown, but this came at a risk: if his physical form was destroyed, the star itself imploded and he would die.

### Experiences on Earth

#### Meeting Natalia Thornton

*"He's from France, he moved to England for a month…"*
―Helen McKeen[src]
Charlie Corner arrived on Earth early in 2020 and would soon meet the zealot Fern Miguel; the two immediately became friends and he became fluent in French, much like Miguel himself was. Miguel introduced him to his young friend Natalia Thornton, and Corner was very taken with her. Thornton initially denied it, but she quickly realized that she was genuinely infatuated with him. Two years passed, and Miguel, Thornton, and Corner began working with Emily Watson, an extremely ambitious girl who had similar goals to Corner's own, and he began getting along with her after she became Thornton's close friend and benefactor.

However, they were all betrayed by Watson, and they began forming their own group, the Cavaliers of Thornton, as an offshoot of the Girl-Team. Eventually, he moved from France to England in April of 2023, where he adopted an entire group of kittens, expressing fascination and finding solace in their presence. But the following month, he moved to the United States of America. He was able to be with Thornton directly, and on May 19, Thornton learned that McKeen, who was the interim Supreme Commander of the Armies of Organa, was her sister, alarming and disturbing her. Corner comforted her over this realization. On the side, he would use his mystical powers and trickery on the street to con customers out of their money. An insurgent, Corner pretended to serve the Armies of Organa while passing information to Natalia Thornton including what their crucial plan on Memorial Day would consist of, hoping the Cavaliers would have the last laugh.

#### Locating Summer Petersen

Eventually, he worked directly under Helen McKeen, the interim Supreme Commander of the Armies of Organa, while she was seeking out Summer Petersen, who had been forced into hiding. Eventually, he and McKeen met up with Andrew and they hid out at Kent's, where Steven Thompson and Josh Hogan were. They were ambushed by giant birds, but they got away. Upon arriving at the Petersen Estate, Corner waited outside, where he contacted pilot Liv Emerson and tipped her off on Petersen's whereabouts. When everyone but Petersen emerged, he argued briefly with Hogan. Corner met Petersen afterwards, but then the quintet was targeted by Emerson, just as Corner had intended. However, they managed to escape aboard the *Heartbreaker*. Arriving at Thompson's house, Corner shared the couch with Andrew until morning, where he listened as his so-called comrades learned that McKeen was the sister of Natalia Thornton. He also met Vincent and Jay Organa when they came over. The following night, he remained awake so he could finish building his laser sword, although Summer was agitated when he carelessly ignited it in her face, something he outright refused to give a genuine apology for.

#### Revelation at Tower Placement

*"Natalia was satisfactory, of course, and when this warfare ceases, glory will be mine. Such fools, you two are. Both of you were so desperate, so hungry for allies. You were about to trust me on the word go. You even taught me your native language! I really did appreciate that, by the way. Guess what? You get a slow, painful death."*
―Charlie Corner taunting Helen McKeen[src]
Charlie Corner's intel proved invaluable to the Cavaliers of Thornton, and it was through his information that they commenced an ambush on Memorial Day, leading Tower Placement School to ring once more with the rage of warfare throughout its levels and corridors. When Summer Petersen and Helen McKeen entered the detention bay, Corner ambushed the latter and tackled her to the ground, pinning her down. Petersen gave an attempt to slash Corner from behind, but he backhanded her in the midsection, knocking her over. Corner revealed the truth to his adversaries and taunted them about their trusting him, and said he would give them a slow, painful death. However, Petersen pushed him down the stairs before he could react, forcing him to retreat as he realized he had gravely underestimated the two women.

Minutes later, Corner realized that the International Alliance was moving to crush the Armies of Organa inside Tower Placement. Seeing a golden opportunity, Corner stood by the assembled army of the Magistrate and alongside a confident Xydarone IV. Together, they prepared to lead them into the school, but a gigantic blast from the U.S. Government forces led by President Roxanne Waterston decimated them all. Corner became the only target to escape the titanic blast.

#### Life in Idaho

 File:Charlie threatens a rich man.png

*"Now all of you, go home! Rue the day you all lost forty million dollars of gambling money to an eleven-year-old!"*
―Charlie Corner[src]
In the months that followed the end of the Cavaliers of Thornton, Charlie Corner remained earthbound, and he slipped far into the Darkness and began to become distorted in appearance and lose his handsomeness due to his immersion into evil mutation. He correctly believed it would make him more tangible, but he also had a sadistic fascination with its untold ability to negatively influence humans, which he despised above all else. Despite this, he found solace in kittens, believing they embodied the innocence of animals and that in stark contrast to humans, animals were beautiful lifeforms worth cherishing and protecting. His immense interest in darkness also resulted in his estrangement with Natalia Thornton, who infuriated him by turning away from the crooked and wide path. At the time he failed to truly understand her aversion, as he had become so insecure and blinded by his attraction to the Darkness that he imagined she would find his skills in Dark mutation, and how they enhanced his connection to the cosmos, impressive. This eventually induced him to join the Magistrate, who became very interested in him upon learning he was the sole survivor of President Waterston's titanic blast and ultimately obliged to have her royal professors take him on as an intern. At this point, he had already struck a shady deal with Pinkbar Inc. to funnel a trust set up with diverted government funds, borrowing an enormous sum of thirty million dollars in return for brainwashing several of their rivals into surrendering invaluable assets to the corporation. He used this money to funnel the construction of an octet of starships featuring cutting-edge technology, which he intended to unleash upon the Eight Worlds. During his occupational work as an intern and his top-secret work for what he assumed to be his forthcoming victory against humankind, he occasionally interacted with Jay Organa.

Enjoying his time in Idaho, and still intent on procuring the money to pay Pinkbar Inc. back and finally obtain his octet of ships, Charlie attended a gambling game at Prince Zaron's castle with a group of adult aristocrats, bringing all the money he had violently procured throughout his short life, five million dollars. Having gotten a terrible hand, Charlie decided to go all in with his hard-won plunder and subjected all the opposing players under mind control to force them to do as he was doing, whilst mocking their nervousness and putting the money available to win at a whopping forty million dollars. Unaware that Summer Petersen was listening in on him, he brainwashed the men to play all the wrong moves and took the money for himself, revealing he had lied about his age and mocking the group.

Charlie then had a group of women pack the money up for him as he prepared to leave with his winnings. However, one of the men tried to stop him and demanded that he give them all a chance to win back their money. As he was about to place a forceful hand on his shoulder, Charlie ducked away and warned that he had lined the inside of his jacket with several grenades and allowed him to make a quick escape, proceeding to depart victoriously with his bags filled with cash just as Summer ducked away from the door in time to avoid being seen by him. Using the money, he promptly paid Pinkbar Inc. in full and manned the ships, directing them to hover over the Eight Worlds in preparation for what was coming in five weeks' time.

#### Showdown over the Temple of the Relinquished

 File:Charlie-bvg-unusedfootagefromditwebsite-07389.jpg

*"Come and taste the blood of your friends!"
"Let's finish this!"*
―Charlie Corner and Summer Petersen[src]
On the Magistrate's behalf, Charlie Corner agreed to lead a battalion of Imperial troopers during the ferocious battle at the Temple of the Relinquished. On the way there, he had a conversation with Summer Petersen in which they both discussed the ramifications of human influence. He showed Summer vivid illusions of a world at peace through the end of humanity. Before long, Summer swiftly curtailed the argument and left Charlie alone for the time being. But Charlie halted her, telling her he now wished to show her the future. He proceeded to demand that she tell the Magistrate what she saw, before out-stretching his twisted, bony right hand above her face; Summer's mind was flooded with cataclysmic images of the Eight Worlds being torn apart by humans with completely fractured minds, and of Charlie looming over the star system proclaiming himself the savior of all animals everywhere. After Summer started screaming in pain, Charlie finally let her go, releasing her from the trance.

Near the end of the battle, Corner flew into battle against Josh Hogan, Summer Petersen, and Kayliah Galibraith on an ornithropter he created by channeling energy from his own being from space into the surface of the earth, feeding on all the dead bodies to fuel his graceless aircraft. He drew his exo-voulge, honed by his energy, and slashed repeatedly at Petersen before driving it into Galibraith, injuring her to the point of almost dying.

Hogan had Petersen throw him at Corner, allowing him to tackle him and throw him off his own aircraft. Corner dropped to the ground with his eyes wide open and his mouth slightly open. His fingers were seen slightly closing after he collapsed. With his avatar damaged beyond repair, Corner soon died from his injury, with his rectangular identity presumably disintegrating, ending his reign to obliterate the human race.

### Legacy

 File:Charlie-bvg-unusedfootagefromditwebsite-07389.jpg
After his death, Natalia Thornton told Helen McKeen about Charlie Corner. Both of them were very curious about his cosmic origins, but it is unlikely that anything would ever be accomplished in this field, as the era of his fellow prism-shaped entities was long over.

## Physical appearance

 File:Charlie BVG4.jpg
Charlie Corner is a mysterious, single-celled organism shaped physically like a rectangle. He has gathered gas, energy, and fire around him as a shell that emanates perpetually, essentially becoming a living star. His identity *is* his star's rectangular core, while his energy form could traverse the star and use matter it manipulated to make itself physically manifest.

Charlie can mold the energy to create a humanoid form for himself, which he did so he could experience what it is truly like to be human. In order to interact with the intelligent lifeforms that populates the world, he created for himself an humanoid avatar who reflected his idea of a biological humanoid being. His human form is tall and handsome, with pale skin, light brown hair, and dark brown eyes. However, as he became more involved in the Darkness, his good looks gradually left him. His features became increasingly waxy and reptilian, his skin became bone-white, and the sclera of his eyes became red, with cat-like slits for pupils (which is due to his fascination with felines), like many Dark mutates. He wore a black cape. The transformation into this monstrous state is believed to have been the result of undergoing dangerous mutated transformations. His avatar is an extension of his own consciousness. However, it requires periodic returns to his main body to regenerate in the light of the star he is to continue functioning.

## Personality and traits

*"As you and I know, the true power in this timid star system is not mysticism, but barrels of papery greens. It is time to rise up!"*
―Charlie Corner[src]
Charlie Corner initially appears to be very sympathetic and kind, a compassionate comrade and friend as well as affable towards those who know him, but as his true intentions are revealed, the monster inside him comes to the light. He is considerably domineering, oppressive, pompous, cold, dangerous, and powerful, and an unbelievably fanatical and manipulative entity. This stemmed from his disillusionment over life he encountered, for his initial desire was to find life, but when he found it he considered it to be disappointing compared to himself. He was motivated by a nihilistic, misanthropic, and egocentric philosophy; he desired to reshape the Eight Worlds to his own design. He had little regard for humans, bringing about the deaths of his fair share of them with little to no sign of remorse. Through his own admission, he has learned to hate human civilization, to the point of wishing to exterminate the human race due to believing they are a corrupt race of destructive and delusional parasites bringing forth society as an artificial and meaningless construction which denied and even desecrated the underlying order of nature. Although Charlie correctly understood humankind to be deeply imperfect, he failed to accept or understand that he himself was an imperfect humanoid, using his philosophy and worldview to justify his own irrational acts of violence for his entire life. Charlie had a keen fascination with kittens, relating to their youthful lack of adulteration and affability with other animals and even developing cat-like pupils upon becoming a Dark mutant. He believed they embodied and personified the righteous innocence of the animal kingdom, believing they were worth preserving and that humanity was deliberately upsetting their harmonious circle of symbiosis.

Most specifically, he deplored humanity's structure of time and evolution. He did not want to be a part of society doing an allegedly mindless cycle of greedy and trivial endeavors, but realized he did not have to, thus bringing forth his nihilistic view on the universe. After this, he came to a realization that he was not to walk among such life but instead found a new purpose, which was to destroy all sentient life minus the woman he obsessively loved, so that the two of them could have a commanding influence on the insentient population and as partners roam the system for life, imagining she would find this feat impressive beyond words. Also, the countless years of loneliness he has endured since infancy did not help.

He also believes it is an inevitability that the strong will always prey upon the weak and that such predatory social Darwinism purges our reality of inferior lifeforms, keeping the balance of the cosmos in a state of authentic purity. Hence, in spite of his mystical power, Corner believes that the real power in the star system is not mysticism but money, "barrels of it" as he puts it. Thus, he is ready to backstab or even kill anyone for a few bucks. He perceives the meaning of life as the obligation to induce suffering upon intelligent life. He does understand notions of good and evil, but in his rationalization, morality is meaningless, the simplest form of insanity ever devised, and so Corner chooses to be an omnicidal monster because at the end of the day, it is all he wants to be.

Corner is shown to be a sadistic and deceptive trickster, as he loves to trick others and watch them suffer. When he captured Helen McKeen, he boasted about how he told Thornton of their plan and joyfully stated he would make their deaths slow and painful, exemplifying his psychotic nature. Corner was also intelligent, allowing him to fake loyalty to several Boy-Team members who, notably, had experience with spies. He was also smart enough to become a star and acquire an avatar of himself. Charlie relished the Darkness, to the extent of it altering his physical appearance. After he allowed it to consume his avatar body for improved tangibility, he became even more malevolent and openly expressed pride in the unspeakable deeds that he has committed. He had a strong hatred for Steven Thompson, possibly because of the threat he posed to Natalia. A glutton for power, Corner is ready to screw people over to get anything he wants, no matter how petty or trivial.

In the end, he failed to understand that intuition was not absolute; he saw the truth, just not what he expected.

## Powers and abilities

### Powers

* **Single-Celled Entity Physiology**: As the last member of a primordial race of rectangular entities with vast supernatural power, capable of manipulating matter and energy, Charlie Corner was an extremely powerful mutate, capable of quickly building immense fires, inflicting physical pain on others, and being capable of Teleportation over vast distances. He was immortal and could only be destroyed if his apparition took a fatal blow, implying that the actual star was indestructible.
	+ **Molecukinesis**: Charlie was able to manipulate matter at a molecular level thanks to his mutation, creating an ornithropter out of energy from his own being channeling from outer space into the surface of the earth. His most advantageous power is his performances in his ornithropter, which he created himself. He was immensely athletic, capable of performing great leaps and somersaults over huge distances, whilst in mid-flight at several hundred miles an hour, seemingly using the surrounding matter to propel the vessel, in a melee fight with Summer Petersen.
		- **Solar Form**: Charlie was able to use his molecular manipulation to create protective energies around himself, essentially evolving into a star. He can manipulate the star he is on a molecular level. His identity *is* his star's rectangular core, while his energy form could traverse the star and use matter it manipulated to make itself physically manifest.
	+ **Mentokinesis**: Charlie can control the minds of animals and make them completely aligned with his will, and while he dislikes doing so due to his respect for them, he has made exceptions such as ordering dozens of kittens to leave a nursing home. He can also manipulate the minds of humans, but because of the complexities of both their mentalities and emotional ranges, his influence spans to a much more limited degree. His ability could compel behavior as well as actions, allowing him to control an animal's emotions or at least emulate an emotion on command. When he gambled with several rich men, he forced them to ignore he did not look eighteen and throughout the game, Summer Petersen surmised that he was invading their thoughts and deadening their will, which was what allowed him to cheat.
		- **Hallucikinesis**: Corner can conjure up extremely realistic and vibrant illusions, notably temporarily altering the environment around himself and Summer Petersen to look like a luscious forest (representing the "paradise" that Sol could be without humanity) before imparting a series of horrific visions into her head so she could tell the Magistrate exactly what Charlie had in store for humanity.
	+ **Dark Mutation**: Corner experimented and pushed the boundaries of Dark mutation, becoming very strong in the arts. He was able to effortlessly block the flamethrower on Josh Hogan's Patrol Pod by blocking it with his bare hand. He can mold the mutagen energy to create a humanoid form for himself.
	+ **Biokinesis**: Charlie has also shown to be able to create and manipulate biological matter, including his own living avatar, which he created to experience what it is like to be human. In order to interact with the intelligent lifeforms that populates the world, he created for himself an humanoid avatar who reflected his idea of a biological humanoid being. His avatar is an extension of his own consciousness. However, it requires periodic returns to his main body to regenerate in the light of the star he is to continue functioning.
		- **Superhuman strength**: Charlie possesses a considerable amount of strength, shown by the muscle in his arms and how he is able to hold his own against Helen McKeen, who is extremely muscular and has displayed signs of superhuman strength.
		- **Superhuman agility**: Charlie was immensely athletic, capable of performing great leaps and somersaults over huge distances, whilst in mid-flight at several hundred miles an hour in a melee fight with Summer Petersen.
		- **Superhuman durability**: Charlie is also extremely durable and has an extremely quick reaction time.
	+ **Longevity:** While not truly immortal, Corner was an extremely long-lived entity, and could only be destroyed if his apparition took a fatal blow, implying that the actual star was indestructible.

### Abilities

* **Master combatant**: During his spy work for the Armies of Organa, Charlie Corner kept an unfinished laser sword attached to the inside of his jacket. He is seen finishing it overnight, this testifies to the fact that while most Boy-Team members need approximately two weeks to build a genuine laser sword, Corner could build one in that many days. Corner could wield it adequately, as shown when he forced Helen McKeen into submission in front of the dungeons.
* **Genius-level intellect**: Charlie was an exceptionally intelligent and analytical humanoid.
	+ **Master deceiver**: Charlie's intellect allowed him to fake loyalty to members of the Head of Twenty without arousing suspicion (in spite of his incredible hatred of humans). This is also notable as they would have had experience with spies and insurgents during the School War.
* **Indomitable willpower**: Charlie Corner possesses tremendous willpower and an inclination to never give up or back down against seemingly insurmountable odds, as human omnicide is all he cares about accomplishing, and no reasoning can divert him from his cruel dreams.

## Possessions

* **Laser sword**: As a violation of the Decemahead's rules, Charlie built a laser sword of unknown materials. He wielded it at Tower Placement before losing it fighting Helen McKeen.
* **Star Blade**: Charlie Corner eventually acquired a blade of saturated starlight and he wielded it during the Battle at the Temple of the Relinquished.

## Relationships

### Allies

 File:Zira-BVG4.jpg
Charlie Corner had very few allies and he only ever worked with people out of sheer pragmatism, due to his incredible hatred of humans. Because she, with effort, could be heavily swayed by money and power, Zira Miranda Grover accepted his assistance. He helped Xydarone IV lead her forces to Tower Placement School, though this may be owing solely to his vendetta against the Armies of Organa. He also led her forces alongside the Cavaliers of Thornton. Because he had fallen out with Natalia Thornton, he came to the Temple of the Relinquished on Zira's behalf. However, his not betraying her was just pragmatism. For her part, Zira found him to be an incredibly valuable asset since he was so powerful.

### Enemies

 File:Helen shock wave.png
Technically, it could be said of Charlie Corner that everyone was his enemy, due to his nihilistic prejudice against the human race. However, he was particularly antagonistic with a few people. Due to being on opposite sides, Charlie naturally had a very negative relationship with Steven Thompson, as both considered each other enemies. Charlie envied Steven for being human and hated him for it, more so than Natalia Thornton or even Beion did. Due to being a Cavalier, Charlie naturally had a extremely negative relationship with Helen McKeen, as both considered each other enemies. Charlie was disturbed that Helen was revealed to be the sister of Natalia Thornton. Around this time, Charlie ostensibly approached her as a Boy-Team fanatic. Helen also taught Charlie how to speak English. In fact, Charlie had purposely targeted and almost killed Helen twice, while the other Cavaliers excluding Natalia couldn't at all. At the detention chamber, Charlie seemed very joyful after finally subduing Helen, and reveled sadistically at the prospect of torturing her to death.

 File:Summer watching the battle.jpg
Charlie first learned about Summer Petersen when he had no choice but to help seek her out for his own pragmatic ends. Due to being a Cavalier, Charlie naturally had a extremely negative opinion of her. He pretended to get along with her, but only to stay on Helen's good side, as evidenced when he activated his laser sword mere inches from her head and took huge offense when she became angry. In fact, Charlie had purposely targeted and almost killed Summer twice, while the other Cavaliers excluding Natalia couldn't at all. At the detention chamber, Charlie threw Summer out of the way in order to fight Helen, which goes to show how little she meant to him. Three years later, he correctly deduced that she had seen him during his pivotal gambling round at Prince Zaron's castle and had an uncharacteristically cordial conversation with her on the *Gemotre*, which ended abruptly when he asked her to relay to the Magistrate what he was about to show her: an apocalyptic vision of the Eight Worlds. With his warning delivered, Charlie freed Summer from his thrall, but he would soon grow furious with her and her close friend Josh Hogan for distracting him during the Battle at the Temple of the Relinquished, and cackled with delight when he tried to kill them and they engaged him in a fight to the death. Josh killed him in retaliation for hurting Kayliah Galibraith. That said, Charlie may have interacted with Kayliah and her friend Cassie during his work for the Cavaliers of Thornton. He was furious at them for distracting him during the Battle at the Temple of the Relinquished, and relished stabbing Kayliah in the neck.

### Others

Charlie's friendship with Natalia Thornton was probably the only thing that truly brought joy to his life. He first met Natalia when he transferred to Tower Placement School. He was very taken with Natalia and was drawn to her dark nature and physical beauty, which had already been tainted by black magic, but left him smitten nonetheless. Natalia quickly realized that she was genuinely infatuated with him, though she initially denied it. However, she quickly decided that her feelings for Corner could put her off task in leading the Cavaliers of Thornton to victory, so she approached him and told him if he did not join the Cavaliers, they could not maintain contact as he would do nought but distract her. Charlie, however, already would have been happy to join her. He also comforted her over the revelation that she was related to Helen McKeen. He never truly understood her aversion to being alone amongst insentient life and endeavored to accomplish this for both of them. Ironically, Natalia might have grown to love Charlie romantically (she certainly loved him as a friend) if he had not loved mindless destruction so much, and been drawn to such loathsome acts.

## Behind the scenes

Charlie Corner was originally thought of by Melissa Vaine.

## Trivia

* Corner's first name comes from the Old English words "free man". While it could be considered very ironic for this character, given that Charlie Corner desired anything but freedom for mankind, his full name could be perceived as literally meaning forcing the free peoples into something inescapable, which is the whole point of his character.
