Shameless RPG

Frank- A hopeless alcoholic and addict, Frank was usually shown passed out drunk on the floors around the house when he was not at the bar spending what little money the family has. Frank was careless, selfish, and narcissistic. He hadn’t done anything in his life but collect disability checks and get intoxicated. He was also abusive, conniving, being in Lip's and his own words, a "total f*cking asshole." He provides next to nothing in the way of parenting or financial support and usually serves as one of the main headaches in the Gallagher household. Frank has also shown that he would give up his own children if it meant he could get booze (or money to get booze).

Fiona- Fiona is a true South Side girl: she's scrappy, resourceful, and not afraid to get into a fight. As the sole provider for the Gallaghers, she takes on odd jobs (and demeaning ones, like sexy waitressing gigs) to provide for what her father's welfare checks won't cover. When she isn't juggling the responsibilities of her siblings or dealing with Frank's shenanigans, she's out partying with Veronica and Veronica's husband, Kev.

Lip- Lip is extraordinarily intelligent for his age, boasting a high GPA and a genius IQ. Despite his remarkable intelligence, Lip can be extremely irresponsible and self-sabotaging. Other than Carl, he is the only other member of the family to have a juvenile record, and he often gets into trouble just for the sake of causing mayhem. He is a loner and doesn't have close friends.

Ian- Ian is not as intelligent as Lip, but he is more physically fit. He is described by Frank to having an excellent work ethic in nearly everything he does. He is often uncertain of what he wants to do in his life, but once he makes a goal for himself he goes after it 100 percent.

Ian is also self-conscious of his bipolar condition, which he inherited from his mother and often feels inadequate as it prevents him from certain things. He sometimes refuses to admit that he has a problem when his condition causes him to go off his usual path.

Ian gets along with all his siblings who were aware of his sexuality long before he revealed it and accepted regardless. He is closest to Lip and Fiona but does get along with his younger siblings and often help shield them from Frank's influence. Ian was devastated by the betrayal of Samantha Slott who told the army of his AWOL choices. However, he did try to redirect Samantha's son Chuckie Slott from his misguided views from juvie.

Carl- Carl is seen as the trouble maker in Season 1, after almost facing expulsion. In Season 2, his love for selling drugs starts when his grandmother Peggy convinced him to get prescription drugs to make meth. Carl’s delinquent side is somewhat on hold in Season 3, but he does end up shaving his head due to Frank convincing him he has cancer. We see Carl's first love interest, Bonnie, in Season 4, but their relationship ends when Bonnie disappears with her family to an unknown fate.

Carl's interests include drinking, weapons, explosives, and death. Carl does seem to actually be a relatively good child, however he is heavily affected by a completely dysfunctional childhood and family. Nonetheless, he cares deeply about his family, including his father Frank, despite the latter’s complete and utter failure as a parent and role model. In his adolescence, he detaches from Frank though he continues to love and show concern for him at times even when angry with him.

Debbie- Debbie is a sweet, spirited, smart, kind-hearted girl. She has deep trust and loyalty towards her family, though she tends to be extremely naïve. She lived for years with the hope of having a good father in Frank, hoping he may one day change. She showed genuine concern and care for her father when no-one else did. Though, she is capable of unconditional love, she demanded love from Frank in return, only to be disappointed by his selfish, uncaring nature. When asked if she ever wished Frank dead, she confirmed it. Debbie has, or at least had, a great deal of respect, trust and love towards Fiona, who was her closest sibling and only sister. She always supported her in house and often took care of Liam.

Liam-While he originally thought little of his father Frank, he is one of the few Gallagher children to actually partake in the latter's activities. As Liam gets older, he becomes more attached to Frank because he is more of a father-figure to Liam than he was to any of the other Gallagher kids. Though Liam is aware of his father's shortcomings, he does love him and was happy when Frank helped him in enrolling in private school and put in the effort to bond with him. Father and son are shown to make a good team, as Frank invites him on his scams with Liam even giving helpful input. Liam once stated he missed Frank, when the latter was away. Although this wasn't believed, his later actions seem to confirm this was true. Besides picking up Frank's views, Liam has also inherited his father's manipulations and was able to successfully get supplies for Ian's welcome home party, nearly succeed in a scam, and trick Frank into going to Ian's wedding. From the latter part, it can be seen that Liam does not want Frank to be excluded from happy times and was happy to see him partake.

Kevin - Kevin is generally nice to most people, and can usually be persuaded to give Frank drinks on credit or cash his disability checks for him. However, that doesn't mean he loves living near the Gallaghers all the time. Fiona often convinces Veronica to help in some way, such as allowing the youngest Gallagher to use their bathroom, but V finds it easier to keep these things from him. During Season 1, he can often be heard uttering the phrase "fucking Gallaghers". Kev and Veronica are known for having the most loving and committed relationship on the show as well as their particularly adventurous sex life.

Veronica- She has intelligence to match her beauty and is very knowledgeable when it comes to medical issues. She had potential to become a nurse, however was expelled from her nursing home for stealing supplies.

Veronica and Kevin are still very much in lust and love and are known for their adventurous tastes in the bedroom.

Mickey- Mickey is a complex character, rapidly displaying many different facets to his personality throughout the 6 seasons of his appearance. He is violent, but never without reason, even if those justifications range from acceptable to tenuous. He generally seems to have physical violence. He is seemingly self-serving. He at first refuses to engage in anything deeper than a friend with benefits with Ian, but displays surprising tenderness for the boy. He's dropped out of high school, and has admitted himself to be "fucked for life". Despite him announcing to everybody at the end of season 4: "I'm fucking gay, big ol' mo", he has multiple heterosexual encounters throughout the series, even post-coming out. This shows his insecurities about his sexuality and the macho image he puts on to hide it.
