Everything Is Numbers
Math is nature's language, its method of communicating directly with us.

Basic Info| Name: | Charlie Eppes |
|---|---|
| Location: | Los Angeles, California, United States |
BioDr. Charles Edward Eppes is, in no particular order, obsessive, thorough, pragmatic, egotistical, easily fascinated, quixotic, kind-hearted, brilliant, and one of the best mathematicians on the planet under the age of thirty-five. Besides serving as a professor of applied mathematics at the California Institute of Science, he's been known to contract his work with the FBI and NSA on a regular basis, applying formula and theory to criminal behavior in an effort to quantify everything from a serial rapist's pattern of attack to a suspect's likeliness to confess.
It works a lot better than you'd think. You can find the math in anything if you know how to look for it.
Charlie Eppes is thirty years old (though he looks and acts much younger), five foot six, olive-skinned, and possessing of both a prominent nose and a disheveled mop of curly black hair that wouldn't be too out of place on somebody half his age. He also has the uncanny ability to pull off the kind of soulful puppy-dog eyes that'd put a litter of baby labradors to shame -- and half the time, he doesn't even realize that he's doing it.
Most importantly, he's a mathematical genius who could multiply four-digit numbers in his head at the age of three, whereas his mun's an English major who hasn't taken a math class since her senior year of high school. Handwaving isn't just for fun around here; it's a way of life. If you really want to ask him about his equations or the in-depth explanations behind them, knock yourself out, but any responses will be extremely vague at best and totally inaccurate at worst. Blame me, not him.
Charlie is from the TV series Numb3rs, which is the property of Cheryl Heuton, Nicolas Falacci, and CBS. He appears here solely for the purpose of roleplaying...somewhere, eventually, from which no profit whatsoever is being made.
Looking for the mun behind the curtain? Step right this way.
