Chary
Chary is currently the Chief Editor of GBAtemp, inheriting the role from T-hug. She joined the site in 2012 in order to learn how to load homebrew on the original Xbox and the Nintendo Wii, and ended up staying on the site long-term, eventually becoming part of the GBAtemp Magazine Staff. Upon being promoted to Reporter in 2016, Chary attended E3 on behalf of GBAtemp, and would continue to do so for each following E3. Originally having joined to do reviews, she would later focus on writing the front page news for the site, which has become her favorite pastime.

Favorite games
While being partial to any genre that isn't first-person (due to severe motion sickness) Chary's favorite type of games are RPGs, be it western or Japanese, and visual novels. Her favorite games include Fallout 2, Persona 4: Golden, Danganronpa 2, Little Busters!, Animal Crossing, Fire Emblem: Three Houses, and Sonic 3. An eclectic mix, for certain, but also very clearly leaning towards narrative-focused Japanese games.
