[b]Personality:[/b] Craig is very upbeat and motivated, the kind of person that not only wants to get to work every day but wants to work well. He always has confidence in whatever he does, believing that if he had just one good soldier, he could probably go on to conquer the world if he put his mind to it. Of course, Craig’s real plan to conquer the world is by doing business; he has a driving ambition to make a name for himself by pulling off a true work of commercial genius. It’s not enough for him to simply make a profit or live comfortably, he has to do something that puts his name out there and has people talking the world over.

On a personal level, Craig is often a perfectly friendly guy, perhaps to the point of too friendly. Even with a stranger, he’s keen to talk their ear off with ideas he has and general talk about his plans. While he can come off a little self-absorbed, he is often keen to learn what he can from others, especially if it’s something that will give him an idea on how to further his own goals. It’s hard to get on his bad side, unless you happen to be his employee and he feels you’re not giving him your best. He has an expectation from anyone that works for him, even if they’re just informally helping him with a task, that they will put their best effort into it and get it done timely and well. He can be mildly forgiving if they tried their best and failed, but if he thinks they’re not taking his tasks seriously, he won’t be happy.

He also has a mild smoking habit he picked up as a young man. He doesn’t exactly enjoy it, but he has yet to manage to stop.

[b]History:[/b] Craig was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, wanting for nothing in his youth. His father Lawrence was a successful businessman himself, and Craig was expected to follow in his footsteps. Craig himself dreamed of making a name for himself in the business world, and so he took to the lifestyle with gusto; he achieved stellar grades through both high school and college, and even in the midst of his education was already laying the foundation for his own business ventures. With some help from his father [s]a small loan of one million dollars[/s] and others, he eventually set up his own stock trading venture and made a tidy profit. 

But this wasn’t enough for Craig. He came to realise he had not only had a great deal of help in getting where he was, but his accomplishment was not nearly as impressive as he had hoped; plenty of people had done the same thing, some had made more money and some had even succeeded at a younger age than him. He had done nothing that would truly put his name in the history books. Unsatisfied with this, Craig searched for something unique to do that would help him meet his ambitions. By chance, he noticed an advert that spoke of a shop being sold in a small village named Willow’s Valley. He was sure that if he could turn a shop in the middle of nowhere into a successful business, that might just put his name out there. Enamoured with the idea, he sold up whatever he had in his old life and headed out to Willow’s Valley, though he planned to use as little money from his personal funds as possible.
