Full name William Easter, but known to his friends as 'Easter'.
He is in his late 20s, approximately 27/28 years of age. Technically he is unemployed but makes his money selling stolen good and pharmaceuticals. Despite this illegal activity he has never been sentenced to jail, however he has served a few community services mainly when he was a teenager for joyriding and selling pills to schoolmates.
Easter is realistically the leader of the group, he is also the narrator of the beginning of the film and main character. He is more or less the anti-hero of the film, but struggles to fulfill this criteria due to his many flaws, thus leads to his downfall without really achieving a great potential. He is cleverer than his friends, which leads him to be the leader of the group, though he is not an official leader and should not be confused as their boss.
Easter would have probably achieved more in life it hadn't been his gambling problem and occasional drug use. Being an avid gambler has led to the situations he has got himself into with crime-lord Frank, who Easter owes money to. This gambling addiction ultimately leads to his downfall.
