The two were adopted following the accidental death<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n of their biological father. Unbeknownst to Charlie, their birth mother is **Barbara Lynch**, who later<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n becomes the secret antagonist of the Red Skylar series.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Charlie attended **Yale University**, where he studied bio-mechanics and developed an interest in<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n robotic integration with environmental monitoring systems. It was during his time at Yale that he met<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n **Mary Redmond** while applying to renew his student loan. The two shared a thoughtful lunch that<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n left a lasting impression on both.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n —<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n === Education and Career ===<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Charlie was known for fusing mechanical systems with smart tech. He partnered with Eddie<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n post-graduation to build hybrid surveillance systems using crab-bots, beetle drones, and custom<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n motion rigs. He earned second place in Yales competitive robotics program, a mark that still drives<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n his perfectionism.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n In the Red Skylar universe, Charlie serves as the teams engineer and on-the-ground problem<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n solveroften in the background but always critical to mission success.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n —<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n === Relationships ===<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n – **Eddie Schmidt** Younger brother, best friend, and creative partner in all tech ventures<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n – **Mary Redmond** Love interest; their connection is understated but deeply emotional<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n – **Red Skylar** Respects her leadership and fights for her causes<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n – **Charles Redmond** Unknown connection through their biological mother Barbara Lynch<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n —<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n === Skills and Strengths ===<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n – Robotics, mechanical engineering, and field repairs<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n – Skilled in on-site improvisation and tactical gear deployment<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n – Protective instinctsespecially when it comes to Mary or Eddie<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n – Strong silent type who often communicates more with actions than words<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n – High moral code with a quiet sense of duty<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n —<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n === Role in the Series ===<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Charlie is the mechanical mind behind the teams gearresponsible for beetle drones, remote access<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n bots, and environmental scanners. He is often the last to speak but the first to act when danger<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n looms. His quiet devotion to Mary and brotherly bond with Eddie create depth in otherwise<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n high-tension operations.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n —<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n === Signature Quote ===<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n “Machines dont lie.

He wears a dark work shirt with the sleeves rolled up, showing strong forearms smudged with<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n grease. His hair is tied back, eyes focused through a magnifying lens as he adjusts a tiny camera<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n mount. Noir-style shadows fall across the room, lit by a flickering overhead light and blue glow from<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n a nearby monitor.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" More to come about…. === Charlie Schmidt === **Full Name:** Charlie Schmidt **Age:** 30 **Occupation:** Mechanical Engineer, Robotics Specialist **Specialties:** Bio-mechanics, mechanical systems, surveillance drones, hardware prototyping **Education:** Yale University Degree in Bio-Mechanical Engineering **Distinct Traits:** Rugged demeanor, mechanics hands, tools always nearby, quiet intellect **Personality:** Focused, dependable, introverted, protective, emotionally perceptive — === Appearance […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":166,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"pagelayer_contact_templates":[],"_pagelayer_content":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-567","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/redskylar.com\/website_70e63590\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/TH-YouTube-CHARLIE.jpg?fit=1332%2C761&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/redskylar.com\/website_70e63590\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/567","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/redskylar.com\/website_70e63590\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/redskylar.com\/website_70e63590\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redskylar.com\/website_70e63590\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redskylar.com\/website_70e63590\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=567"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/redskylar.com\/website_70e63590\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/567\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":568,"href":"https:\/\/redskylar.com\/website_70e63590\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/567\/revisions\/568"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redskylar.com\/website_70e63590\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/166"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/redskylar.com\/website_70e63590\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=567"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redskylar.com\/website_70e63590\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=567"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redskylar.com\/website_70e63590\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=567"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
