Background
Christopher Olson was a man who's parents had been merchants. At one point in his life, he had been ensnared by Eight Fingers, but prior to when the organization was taken over by Nazarick. He owned warehouses in Re-Estize, but they were looted clean of various types of goods during Jaldabaoth’s rampage.

The Witch of the Falling Kingdom Arc
Christopher had originally intended to borrow money, managing to receive an audience with the division heads of Eight Fingers. The loans usually would have been handled by his managers but he was approached for reasons unknown to him. He was given the task of handling the transport of grain being shipped from the Sorcerer Kingdom to the Holy Kingdom. Therefore, for someone like Christopher who did not know of any trustworthy mercenaries, he selected 24 men from his own division as his probably best choice to escort his caravan. For this mission, they were his only choice as it was a direct order from the higher-ups to use these men.

Abilities and Powers
In addition to being a member of the smuggling division, his words carried quite a bit of weight on the major trade route connecting the royal capital to the west side of the Kingdom. Christopher was no warrior and thus could not properly grasp a person's strength.

Eight Fingers
Originally a minor subordinate in his division, he was given the opportunity to meet the heads of the organization, which was an unprecedented event given his position. He found the leaders to be contrary to what was expected to be of mafia bosses, but rather friendly and professional. Still, even though he was entrusted with an important mission by them, he could not help but feel anxious that there was an ulterior motive. The recent changes in the behavior of the heads only confirmed his suspicions.
