“ | This is... was... my boyfriend, Charlie. We joined the Whisperers. Together. But it... changed him. In a way that couldn't be undone. It changed both of us.

Charlie is a survivor of the outbreak in The Walking Dead: The Telltale Series, as well as the deuteragonist of The Night the World Ended. He is a member of a group known as the Whisperers.
Overview[]
Although unseen throughout the game, Charlie seemingly was once a good-hearted young man and loving boyfriend to James. After the outbreak began, James and Charlie survived together before joining the Whisperers. The Whisperers brutal nature ended up effecting Charlie and James in a negative way, with the two of them becoming ruthless killers. However, while James eventually became disillusioned with the Whisperers, Charlie fully embraced their ruthlessness and was too far gone in James' eyes. Ultimately, Charlie's change into a remorseless killer would be remembered by James for the rest of his life and is the main reason he fears for AJ killing other living beings.

Not much is known about Charlie's life prior to or as the outbreak began.
"The Night the World Ended"[]
Charlie sat outside his bedroom window, alongside his boyfriend. Suddenly, alarms begin to blare and chaos erupted throughout the city. Charlie went back indoors to investigate, while a fearful James called out to him after finding out what was going on.[2][3]
Post-Apocalypse[]
Sometime after the outbreak, Charlie, alongside his parents and boyfriend, became members of the Whisperers. Over time the tradition of survival and constant killings of the group took their toll on Charlie and he became very accepting of death and killing, which saddened James greatly. He tried to convince Charlie to leave with him, but couldn’t change his mind. Charlie never stopped loving James, but rejected his change of heart and didn’t fight him when he said he had to go.
Although Charlie's fate is unknown, he was most likely killed before or after the Whisperers disbanded.
