Charlie Ipkiss

Charlie Ipkiss is a member of the School Group and the best friend of Blake Floyd. He is a secondary character in Season 1 and 2 of A Fight for Survival.

"Pilot"
Blake finds Charlie and they agree to stick together. They go to their homes and Charlie finds his mother and puts her down. After deciding to go to the school with Blake, they narrowly escape a group of infected. Charlie cuts his leg open on a shard of glass and he is dragged to safety by Blake and Frank.

"Take it Back"
Charlie spends the whole episode in the canteen being tended to by Chloe. The two talk about how bad the world outside the school is, to which Charlie says it is "worse" than inside.

"Keep Pushing Forward"
His leg healing, Charlie volunteers to help take the last building. He later confronts Cain about why he doesn't like Blake.

"A Safe Place"
Charlie stays behind at the school while Blake and the others go to the supermarket. When they are captures by Logan, Charlie hides a knife and gives it to Chloe so she can escape. In order to help her, Charlie headbutts Logan, resulting in him being kicked in the chest.

"Trouble Afoot"
Charlie and Frank burn the bodies of the bandits that attacked the day before. He questions why they aren't burying them, to which Frank tells him that if he wants to "spend hours digging graves for these pieces of shit, go right ahead."

"What You Have To Do"
After Blake's "death", Charlie is approached by Joely while he is on watch. After some awkward small talk, Charlie begins telling the story of how he and Blake met. He claims that Charlie had been picked on by a group of other kids. Blake tried to stop them from hurting Charlie, resulting in him being beaten up instead. He then proclaims Blake to have been "good. Through and through."

Later, he and Joely confess to Frank their suspicions about Blake's death. They eventually make him admit that he doesn't believe Cain's story, stating that he doesn't want them to fight amongst themselves.

When the three of them finally confront Cain in the common room, Charlie accuses him of killing Blake, calling him a "murderer." Cain then launches himself at Claire and begins choking her. Charlie tries to help get him off her to no avail. It is only when Blake returns to the school after being nursed back to health by the Cottons he Claire is saved.

Later, Blake and Charlie have a tearful reunion in which he tells Blake he is "glad [he's] okay," and even calling him "brother." The two share a hug. That night, Charlie and Frank tease Blake when he cannot muster the nerve to talk to Joely.

"What We Are"
A few days later, the group discuss what to do with the now-imprisoned Cain. When the idea of banishing him is denied, Charlie suggests killing him. Although Chloe agrees, the rest of the group are against the idea.

Charlie later appears when the whole group finds Frank bleeding out following Cain's escape. He cannot bear to look at his friend as he dies and turns away.

"What We Become"
After hearing about Maeve's kidnapping, Charlie, Claire, and Chloe go searching the common room for her. Charlie is still shaken from Frank's death and he asks Chloe why Cain didn't just kill Maeve, to which she simply shakes her head. After being unable to find her, the group meet in the courtyard and conclude that Cain must have found a way out of the school. When Blake and Claire seem to want to go searching for them immediately, Charlie points out that it will be sunset soon and they "can't go out there at night." Reluctantly, Blake agrees.

Soon after, a funeral is held for Frank. When most of the group has gone, Charlie stays a moment longer patting the earth and saying goodbye to his friend. The next day, he and Joely split off from the rest of the group to try and find Cain. They talk about how they miss Frank, with Joely confessing that she used to tutor him at maths. They soon discover a dead infected and are ambushed by Cain, who knocks Joely out. He and Charlie fight for a few moments with Cain telling him he doesn't want to kill Charlie, "just Floyd." Cain is soon forced to fight a group of infected and ends up bitten, which makes Charlie laugh uncontrollably. Cain tells him to tell Blake to come to the supermarket before running off.

Charlie then helps Joely as they find Blake and tell him what happened. He then tells him and Claire to help Joely back to the school while he goes to the supermarket. She, however, manages to convince them to let her follow him. Charlie is then seen welcoming Blake, Joely, and the rescued Maeve back to the school.

"Are We Okay?"
Charlie accompanies Blake, Tim, and Maeve on the run for food. When they bring Pepper and the others to the school, he later expresses his distrust and urges Blake to take the Cottons' gun with him when they leave for the campsite.

"What Have You Done?"
When Maeve runs from the school, Charlie insists on helping Chloe track her down. As they look for her, Chloe blames herself for not making sure Claire's sister is safe while she is gone. Charlie tries to reassure her, but she questions her ability to keep the group safe while Blake isn't around, seeing as he left her in charge. Charlie then points out that her being out looking for Maeve proves that Blake made the right decision. The two then find Maeve moments later and bring her back.

"Gone Too Long"
As he takes watch, Chloe and Maeve tells Charlie that Tim and Sam have slept together, prompting Charlie to warn them against getting too close to "these people." Later, when Porter, Wainwright, two other Scavs attack the school, Charlie is knocked out. He is soon freed by Blake, who returns just in time to save the others. Later, Charlie expresses his frustration with Bryce's group for not telling them about the Scavs, though Sam defends herself, saying that they did not think that they were in that area.

Blake
Blake and Charlie are best friends, they choose to stick together early on and their friendship is only strengthened after the end of the world. When Blake returns after being "killed" by Cain, the two have a tearful reunion and they embrace. After the six month gap, their relationship appears much the same, though Charlie disagrees with Blake's decision to trust Bryce's group.

Frank
After their initial meeting, Charlie and Frank appear to form a strong friendship, with the two of them sharing jokes at Blake's expense. When he is killed, Charlie is visibly distraught and cannot bear to look at Frank's body. At his funeral, Charlie remains a few moments longer, patting his grave solemnly.

When Cain escapes and kills Frank, Charlie grows furious when they next meet, trying and failing to kill him.
