A Charver is a sub-species of the human race. Occasionally a perfectly
normal family will give birth to one of these creatures. In ancient times, survival of the fittest nearly always killed of these unfortunates. However, thanks to Clement Atlee and the Welfare State, they now have a means to survive. Several different types of charver exist- True Charvers, who have an average IQ score roughly the same as a snail, and find it
funny to drink, smoke, sleep with young girls/old men and fight
one another. Then there are
Scum Charvers,
like True charvers, but average at four
foot ten in hight, and will only swear at you if they outnumber you twenty to
one. There are several other varieties, such as townies, radgies etc. All varieties are native to the North East, especially Newcastle. Charvers are now spreading, and take hold whrever the welfare system can be manipulated.
