{| class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" !

Background
His mother, the family's breadwinner, was absent in Jagger's life, displaying a negligent detachment. Although she didn't subject him to the physical abuse his father did, her absence and indifference were wounds that cut deep. She escaped into her work, leaving her son to fend for himself. Jagger's pleas for sustenance and attention fell on deaf ears, his cries for help during his father's violent outbursts went unanswered. In the midst of turmoil, he found no shelter in her presence, as her allegiance was to her abusive partner.
 * When Jagger was a young child, his life was marred by heart-wrenching circumstances. Raised in a toxic and unstable environment, he grew up as an only child, isolated and emotionally scarred. His father, an abusive alcoholic, viewed him as an inconvenience rather than a son. The routine of feeding, bathing, and providing comfort was deemed too bothersome. The cruelty extended to his father's refusal to use Jagger's given name, relegating him to the label "Boy" throughout his upbringing.

The cruelty extended to his father's refusal to use Jagger's given name, relegating him to the label "Boy" throughout his upbringing.

Jagger's formative years were marked by hunger, pain, and isolation. He slept in a closet on frigid, unforgiving floors. Wearing tattered clothes that hung loosely on his emaciated frame, he endured more fractures and injuries than most adults experience in a lifetime.

Around his sixth birthday, his parents' violent clash led to his mother's abrupt departure, leaving him abandoned and shattered. As she walked away, she missed the agony in her child's eyes, the heartbreak of rejection etched across his face. Left in the clutches of his abusive father, he wept for the mother he barely knew, grappling with the reality that he'd never see her again.

Most children anticipate school, but education was denied to Jagger. With his mother gone, his father forced him to contribute to their meager livelihood. Forced to sell stolen goods, Jagger was ensnared in his father's criminal endeavors.

A helium tank and balloons thrust him into a harrowing ordeal. As his father demanded he hold the balloons, his frail body lifted off the ground. His warnings were silenced, and his fears were ignored. Terrified to let go, he clung to the balloons as they carried him away. The sight of his unresponsive father became his last memory before he drifted into the unknown.

Hours later, Jagger found himself in an unfamiliar field, surrounded by darkness. Alone and abandoned, he wept as the chill of the night enveloped him. Distant wolves howled, accentuating his isolation. A stranger, Bobo, found him and offered solace. Bobo's farmhouse became a haven, providing warmth and comfort previously unimaginable.

As dawn broke, Jagger's new reality emerged. Bobo's clown costume juxtaposed his compassion. The man, wordlessly, guided him through his newfound home. When Jagger shared the depths of his pain, Bobo refused to call him "Boy." He bestowed upon him the name "Chatterbox," a reference to his unburdened sharing.

Bobo offered sustenance, clothing, and recognition. Chatterbox learned survival skills from Bobo, though the lessons were laced with cruelty. Kennel confinement was the consequence of stepping out of line.

Over time, Chatterbox unearthed unsettling truths. The farmhouse guests never left, and the same questionable red stew became a daily meal. Bobo, now a surrogate father, was the architect of Chatterbox's skewed reality. The stew held secrets, the parties concealed ominous activities. At adulthood's doorstep, Chatterbox was dispatched into the city, coerced to gather money. He performed as a clown, but the world's hostility ignited his anger.

Chatterbox's mistreatment cultivated an anxiety disorder, fueled by an uncontrollable rage. The food he consumed, and the actions he was coerced into, warped him into an anguished existence. This transformation birthed a volatile alter ego, emerging when his emotions overwhelmed him.

Though he learned his legal name was Jagger Gerardy, Chatterbox the Clown became his true identity, shaped by a painful journey that left indelible scars on his soul.

TL;DR:
Chatterbox's mommy left him and his daddy beat him. He ended up getting taken care of by a cannibalistic clown who forced him to eat people stew everyday and put him in a dog kennel whenever he was bad. {| class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" !

Forming the Clowncil
These newfound friends understood the depths of his pain, for they too carried their own scars. Together, they created a haven where understanding and acceptance flourished, allowing Chatterbox to confront his feelings of abandonment and isolation. The collective experience of this unique group became a lifeline, enabling him to embark on a journey towards healing and redemption.
 * Over time, amid the shadows of his tumultuous past, Chatterbox managed to forge connections in the sprawling expanse of Los Santos. He found solace and camaraderie among individuals who, much like him, bore their own burdens of darkness. They became his confidants, guiding him through the maze of his emotions and helping him rein in the overwhelming hostility that had taken root within him.

In this vibrant city, Chatterbox fashioned his own family, a tapestry woven with the threads of shared struggles and survival. These clowns, bound by an unspoken kinship, stood together as a testament to resilience. Through their support and shared laughter, Chatterbox found a sense of belonging that had eluded him for so long.

Chatterbox's transformation wasn't just a story of pain; it was also a tale of growth and renewal. As he harnessed his emotions and learned to channel his anger constructively, he discovered a newfound passion for mischief and pranks. Laughter became a balm for his wounds, and he realized that the power to uplift others and create moments of joy was within his grasp.

With his fellow clowns, he unleashed pranks that transcended the hurt he had carried for years. These playful antics not only bridged gaps but also paved the way for bonds that were fortified by shared laughter. Through their escapades, Chatterbox found redemption in the ability to bring smiles to faces that had known sorrow.

Amid the colorful chaos of their clownish endeavors, Chatterbox's journey took on new meaning. The darkness of his past was gradually illuminated by the light of friendship, camaraderie, and the joy he was able to instill in others. As he navigated the intricate dance of healing, Chatterbox became not only a survivor but also a beacon of resilience for those who found themselves lost in the shadows.

F.A.Q.

 * Q. Does Jagger use a voice changer for Chatterbox's voice?
 * Q. Does Jagger use a voice changer for Chatterbox's voice?

''A. When Chatterbox was a kid, Bobo would put him in a dog kennel whenever he was bad. Since then, Chatterbox has come to hate small, confined spaces.''

Q. Is Chatterbox claustrophobic?

''A. No, Claustrophobia is the fear of small, enclosed spaces. Chatterbox is fine with hiding in small spaces; it's only when he's in a tiny cell that he freaks out. He also doesn't have cleithrophobia, which is the fear of being trapped or unable to escape. Rather, Chatterbox suffers from PTSD. Whenever he is put into a small cell, he has flashbacks of how Bobo treated him and panics. Larger cells are fine because he has room to move around, but smaller cells bring back too many memories of the dog kennel. This is also the reason why some bright lights are okay, such as headlights, but he freaks out when flashlights are shone in his face.''

Q. Why does Chatterbox hate swearing?

A. Bobo said that swearing was bad and would put Chatterbox in the kennel if he said bad words.

Q. Is Chatterbox a gangbanger?

''A. No, no, no, no, no! Lies, lies, lies! A gangbanger uses guns and violence for criminal activities. Chatterbox is nice. He might shoot at a cop's tires, but he has never killed a cop. He might pull a gun on someone to steal their weapons, but he never robs them of their money. He even lets people sell meth on his corner. A gangbanger would have killed him.''

Q. Why does Chatterbox hate BGB so much?

Chatterbox's Darkest Night
Upon his arrival, shadows enshrouded the space, a sinister backdrop to the unfolding tragedy. The voice beckoned from the darkness, its tone laden with the weight of memories. A place that had remained dormant in his mind for eight long months had now resurfaced, a haunting reminder of pain and loss. This was the very room where the echoes of his wife's agony still resonated, a symphony of torment etched into his tormented soul. As the stranger emerged from the shadows, a shroud of darkness draped around them, Chatterbox strained to recognize their form. Cloaked in obsidian attire and concealed by a mask, the stranger bore no semblance to anyone he knew. The mention of the past ignited a flicker of recognition, and for a moment, he wondered if it could be Carmella, a twisted jest that he couldn't fathom. Warning signals blared within him, a desperate plea to stave off the coming storm, but the stranger pressed on, cruelly taunting and probing the depths of his anguish. The stranger's accusations were like shards of glass, slicing through Chatterbox's defenses. They charged him with prioritizing others over his own blood, casting him as a traitor to his Clown Family. Desperation laced his words as he tried to explain the complexities of loyalty and coercion, his pleas met with an unyielding wall of rejection. The hatchet gleamed malevolently as it was brandished, and terror clenched Chatterbox's heart. Forced to defend himself, he drew his weapon and fired, the resounding shots an echoing chorus of despair. In the aftermath, the stranger lay wounded and gasping, their lifeblood pooling around them. Through strained breaths, they beseeched Chatterbox to unmask them, to reveal the truth beneath the facade. Kneeling, trembling hands removed the mask, and the veil of anonymity was lifted. Instead of the anticipated Carmella, the visage that met Chatterbox was that of Malla Pietro, Giggles, his cherished wife and soulmate. A guttural cry escaped Chatterbox's lips as the weight of realization crashed upon him. Giggles, his confidante, the one who knew him deeply, lay dying before him. He cradled her head as life seeped away, her blood mingling with his tears. Desperation coursed through him, his pleas for her to hold on a symphony of heartache. But the light in her eyes dimmed, and he felt her slipping away. A cacophony of grief and torment echoed through the room as she took her final breath, leaving him to grapple with the agony of a life forever shattered. The anguish of that moment forever changed Chatterbox, leaving him a fractured soul, haunted by the memory of the woman who had once been his anchor in a tumultuous world.
 * On February 14, 2022, a heart-wrenching event unfolded in Chatterbox's life. A fateful anonymous call reached his ears, the voice shrouded in mystery and darkness. Familiar words were spoken, yet the voice was unfamiliar, casting an eerie pall over the encounter. Accusations were hurled at Chatterbox, accusing him of forsaking his family for newfound companions. The haunting threat of harm loomed over his beloved clown family, a threat that would only be lifted if he complied with a chilling demand: a meeting at the Grapeseed P.D. torture room.

Clown Family - The Clowncil
The Clowncil, also known as the Council of Clowns, or less formally the "Clown Family", is an organization which operates within Los Santos. The group is often referred to as the "Clown Gang", but this name is less encouraged because of its association with gang bangers, the proclaimed enemies of the clowns. Rather, the Clowncil considers itself a family which does favors for each other and works on projects together. The group was formerly known as the "Clown Cartel" early in 2022 when they got into heavier crimes such as heists, meth trafficking, and meth running.

Giggles (Malla Pietro) - Deceased
Chatterbox's original partner in crime. They met when he kidnapped her from a stripclub, where she worked with her current boyfriend. As she tried to escape the crazed clown, she hit her head. Waking up days later in his home, she had no memory of who she was or even her name. Chatterbox convinced her that her name was Giggles and they were married.

Chatterbox was forced to kill her on February 14, 2022. See Chatterbox's Darkest Night for more information.

Bozo (Angus Onlong II)
A founding member of the Clowncil, Bozo comes from a prestigious polish clown family.

Bobo

Giblets (Donny Rashguard) - Deceased
Giblets grew up with Chatterbox. After having been stuck in the attic of the fun house for over a year - living off rats the entire time - Giblets joined the clown family. He is a wonderful farmer who loves to grow weed and raise his pigs. He also had a weird fascination with the BBMC - specifically Barry Benson.

Giblets was murdered by the BBMC on January 23, 2023. Having gone to war with the notorious gang, he was caught on fire when they attempted to blown up the funhouse. Unable to recover from his wounds, Giblets was pronounced dead at the hospital. During his autopsy, the clowns stole his body from the morgue and brought him to Grapeseed. They fed him to his beloved pigs - who were later killed and gutted by Gunner in an attempt to gather his remains for evidence against BBMC.

Giblets' death was felt deeply by the entire clown community and was the reason the clowns agreed to surrender terms with the BBMC, thus ending the war.

CrackerJack (Barry Benson)
During the time when Irwin Dundee went missing, Chatterbox ran into BBMC member and Road Captain Barry Benson. After offering his support to help locate Dundee, Chatterbox was able to kidnap Trooper Ripley. Chatterbox aided in the search for Dundee, helping Barry learn to be less "soft" in the process through the clownsona of Crackerjack.

Barry operated as Crackerjack in secret and hide his affiliation with the clowns from his gang. However, as the BBMC got bigger in the city, Barry began to drift away from his friendship with Chatterbox.

After the war with the BBMC - that ended with a clown death - Chatterbox has discovered that Barry will always put the BBMC before his friendship with the clowns, thus ending their friendship.

Having been blooded out of the BBMC for refusing to lure in and torture his friend Kirk Jerkems, Wolfe found a new home with the Clown Femly.

Janky (Kirk Jerkems )
Kirk joined the Clown Family after his Bandito Boy partner-in-crime Abner Vaca went to Afbanistan.

Mirth (Ursula Leichenberg)

Bonbon originally joined the Clowncil as a way to partake in method acting for a role. Having completed his clownternship, he brought in other members to the family. He is currently married to Boom Boom.

Scruffy
The grumpiest clown there ever was, Scruffy never sees eye to eye with Chatterbox or Kirk. When the clowns voted on who would be the leader of the clowns, Scruffy was disappointed to learn he lost to Chatterbox.

Happy
The clown Elder, anything Happy says must be obeyed. When Windsong - Happy's longtime girl friend - was getting married, Happy ordered the clowns to halt the wedding and kill the groom. The Red (nose) Wedding is a day that will go down in infamy. Happy has since married Windsong.

Duncan
If anyone can, Dun Can.

Boom Boom - (Sooty Gamwich)
Having been brought into the clowns when she started dating Bon Bon, Boom Boom has proven herself to be a capable clown and was quickly promoted to full time clown. She is very motherly to the rest of the clowns, always making sure they have food and drinks, and always makes sure to clean up the funhouse and make sure the signs are put up every day. She is married to Bon Bon.

Carmella Corset
Carmella was the first friend Chatterbox made when he left the farm and came into the city. However, their friendship changed after Carmella betrayed Chatterbox during a friendly game of hide-and-go-seek.

It all started with a phone call...

Chatterbox called Carmella during a slow day at the Rooster's Rest and invited her to play a game with him at his funhouse. When she arrived, she banged unnecessarily hard and loud on his door. Chatterbox, who had just pulled up in a car with some other friends, introduced Carmella to Taylor "Buzz Spaceboy Lightyear" Briggs and Scruffy the Clown. He then explained the rules - no hiding in the basement or on balconies - and gave Carmella and Briggs two minutes to hide. When the time was up, Chatterbox and Scruffy searched the house for the two victims participants.

Despite Scruffy finding Carmella almost immediately, Chatterbox order him to let her go as he was trying to stack the game in her favor. However, Carmella instead returned his graciousness by twatting out that she was "with clowns" and needed help. Upon confronting her about it, Chatterbox told her that he had let purposely let her win and inquired as to why she was "doing this to him" by twatting that she was in danger. Being the caring and compassionate person that he is, Chatterbox agreed to forgive her as long as they continued the game properly.

Carmella agreed and followed Chatterbox into the basement, where he announced her the winner and granted her a prize - a silver knife to commemorate her victory. However, that mother yucking ungrateful Carmella betrayed the Chatterbox. She tackled the Chatterbox to the ground instead of turning the knife on that yucking loser Buzz Lightyear Spaceboy!

Ahem...

Though Chatterbox tried to reconcile with her many times, Carmella has made it abundantly obvious that she does not wish to remain friends any longer. To make matters worse, she has slandered the Chatterbox's name, sent her friends and the cops to kill him, vandalized his home, caught him and his home on fire, and even dumped out the remains of Chatterbox's dearly departed Pappy. Due to her actions, the cops now label the Chatterbox as a terrorist and he has suffered tremendous fines because of her slander and lies.

Chatterbox called Lang Buddha and demanded that he fire Carmella from the Rooster's Rest in an attempt to get revenge on her. She was fired because he threatened to continue terrorizing the place if she was not, unbeknownst to Carmella. On November 10th, Chatterbox broke into Carmella's house and made a fake video of her doing drugs with somebody dressed as her. He also planted body parts because she was previously a vampire. Randy Wrangler later found the body parts inside her house and had her come down to the PD with Murphy Braun, where she was sentenced for the 9s.

Yuno Sykk
During the BBMC initiation, Dundee called Yuno to meet him at Grandma's for his assistance. Once the initiation was over, several other people - including Sasuke and 4T - arrived asking about a clown. After Dundee found the clown in the basement, Yuno offered to help Sasuke with his fire jitsu by catching Chatterbox on fire. Though his gas can was empty and he was unable to help, he still made Chatterbox's list.

A few days later, Chatterbox was able to get Yuno's phone number from Dundee, who was pissed at his puppy at the time. Chatterbox called Yuno under the pretense that he needed someone to help him deal with a killer clown. However, though he has called Yuno several times asking for help, Yuno has been busy each time. When he managed to reach him, Yuno promised to help Chatterbox rob a bank as long as he made good with Dundee and secured him as a driver.

Unfortunately, this never happened as Yuno still tends to ignore all of Chatterbox's calls or puts off their conversation for another time.

Officer Patrick Downing
From the moment they met at Alta Street Apartments - when Pat was nothing more than a security guard - the two have hated one another. Their hatred has only escalated when Pat was made an officer.

Irwin Dundee and the BBMC
While hiding in the basement of Grandma's house, Dundee arrived there with the members of BBMC for a member initiation. Once the initiation was over, several other people arrived asking about a clown. Dundee found Chatterbox down in the basement and informed the other people of his location. Because of this and the incident that happened that night, Chatterbox added Dundee to his list of enemies.

A few days later, Chatterbox was driving around with Giggles when he passed a driver on the road. He recognized the man's voice and realized it was Dundee. After tracking him down, he introduced himself as someone who was looking for a clown and needed help killing the man. Dundee gave Chatterbox his number and said he would help. Later that day, Chatterbox called Dundee claiming he found the clown. He lured him to Grandma's house and into the basement, but him and Giggles were shot by Dundee and Barry. The two then took Chatterbox and Giggles to a torture house, where he made both clowns pick a number between one and two. Though both chose two, Dundee rolled a die twice. It landed on two for Chatterbox, but one for Giggles. Dundee then forced Chatterbox to watch while Barry burned his wife alive.

Some time after that, Chatterbox ran into Barry and told him that he was selling lockpicks for only $50. After several attempts, he managed to get Barry into a car and pulled a gun on him, ordering him to drive. He took Barry to the funhouse, but was unaware that the car they were in belonged to Dundee. Dundee tracked him down and shot Chatterbox. He then took him to a pier in Grapeseed then left to pickup his girlfriend, Emma Gaines, while Barry kept watch over Chatterbox. When Emma arrived, she tried to help heal Chatterbox, but was unable to because of Dundee - who wanted her to kill the clown. She refused, leaving the area, and Dundee threw Chatterbox into the ocean.

Chatterbox woke up in his apartments later that day with no memory of the events that transpired between him and Dundee. He no longer has any reason to go after Dundee, Emma, or any members of the BBMC.

The feud between them has been ongoing and they are rarely on good terms.

Lang Buddah
Having got the Rooster's Rest raided, Chatterbox has been banned from the restaurant.

William Gunner
William Gunner has taken up the mantle of harassing Chatter by pooping in and around the Funhouse.
