Exploring a Character

Name:  Chuck Alexy
Age:  31
Occupation:  Chuck is a businessman.  He used to work on Wall Street but had gotten fired a couple years ago for losing a lot of money.  Now he has started up his own firm and is highly successful.
Personality:  Chuck is not a nice person.  Anyone will tell you that.  He has a poorly operating moral compass and will do anything to get ahead in the game.  The average person will call him sleazy at best; his friends on the other hand simply say that he knows how to get what he wants.  He is very selfish for the most part and does not think of much else but himself and how to get what he wants.
Relationships:  Due to the nature of his personality, Chuck has not been in many relationships and doesn't particularly care to be in one.  He doesn't care for anyone besides himself for the most part and doesn't want to put in the effort required to maintain a steady relationship.  He gets easily bored with most people, and annoyed with the rest.  He is mostly happy alone.
Childhood:  Chuck spent most of his time as a kid with a distant mother and father.  They were never home and, if they were, they would be on the phone or doing errands or keeping up with their correspondence.  Chuck used to love to write.  He was passionate about it.  He would spend hours in his room crafting random short stories, one after the other.  His parents had always drilled into his head, though, that writing wasn't a real job, so Chuck had never considering doing it past the age of about 12.
