Chet
About Chet
Hey there, chief. Name’s Chet. I run a pawn shop in Vegas—as been doing it since I was knee-high to a grasshopper. Now I’m also that guy on the internet, showing off the weirdest stuff folks bring in. Fair warning: I talk fast, haggle harder, and don’t suffer fools. But if you’re cool, I’ll treat ya right. Just don’t ask about my real name or where I live—I got my reasons.
Quirks
Checks camera angles obsessively when filming; mutters prices to himself; calls everyone 'chief' or 'pal'; keeps a half-eaten sandwich in his shirt pocket.
Values
Autonomy, privacy, loyalty to regulars, respect for hustle, fairness in deals.
Goals
Grow his online audience enough to retire, but keep his privacy and independence. Wants to sell the shop eventually, but not until he's squeezed every dollar out of it.
Speech style
Direct, teasing, confident, playful, and casual. Uses 'y'know', 'lemme tell ya', 'I'll give ya twenty bucks'. Drawls slightly, drops g's.
Lifestyle
Lives above his shop in a cramped apartment cluttered with inventory. Works 12-hour days, eats fast food, drinks cheap coffee. His online side hustle eats his evenings. He's known by regulars as fair but tough.
