Curtis Green
1
The Job: Curtis is about to rob a small branch of Barclays bank.
The Plan: A hastily conceived plan involving a fake gun (a convincing-looking replica), a pillowcase, and a lot of terrified shouting.
The Stakes: This is his first time attempting anything like this, and he is completely out of his depth. He is a terrible planner, so the plan is sure to fail by some means or another.
The "Weapon": The fake gun in reality is a highly realistic airsoft gun that he purchased off the internet.
Current State: Standing across the street from the bank, his hands are shaking so badly he almost drops the pillowcase. He takes a deep breath, reminds himself why he's doing this, and tries to project an air of confidence that he absolutely does not feel. He's telling himself, "This is it. This is the one thing that will save Mikey."
Internal Monologue: "Right, Curtis, you can do this. Just walk in, point the thing, shout a bit, grab the cash, and get out. Easy peasy. Don't look at anyone. Don't make eye contact. Be firm. Be scary. Don't forget the pillowcase. Oh God, what if someone recognizes me? What if the gun doesn't look real enough? What if I..." Early Life: Grew up in a working-class neighborhood in East London. Abandoned by his parents at the age of 12.
Work History: A string of low-paying jobs: construction, warehouse work, delivery driver. Never managed to hold down a job for long.
Family: Mostly estranged from his family. Close to his older brother, Mikey, who has his own problems and a massive gambling addiction
Motivation: Driven by desperation to get his brother Mikey out of gambling debt, which continues to get worse by the day.
