'''David Charleston''', an orphaned teen living in Newcago, is a member of the [[Reckoners]] on [[Earth (Reckoners)|Earth]]. After his father was killed by the notoriously godlike High Epic, Steelheart, all David could think about was revenge. In order to enact his revenge, David compiled an insurmountable amount of information on Epics, including their history, abilities, and weaknesses. He would later join the Reckoners, a group of ordinary people that are humanity's only chance of combating the Epics, and concoct a plan in taking Steelheart once and for all. After successfully taking down the High Epic, all David had to worry about was all the other Epics wreaking havoc.
== History ==
David was a child living with his widowed father when Calamity occurred. All he and father had to worry about were your typical financial problems, and then Calamity happened. When David was eight years old, he witnessed his father, [[Blain Charleston]], be killed by the High Epic [[Steelheart (Epic)|Steelheart]] on the [[Day of Annexation]]. After a short time living homeless and alone in the city of Newcago, David was taken in by a Factory, where he, along with many other children, worked in exchange for food and board. During this time David became obsessed with researching Epics and finding their weaknesses, particularly that of Steelheart.
