Oliver's color reference. Text is included in the character profile

Oliver stores separate dimensions in keychains like lock boxes. The keychains themselves are acrylic, and he infuses energy into the keychains to create the dimensions. Due to his condition when he obtained this power, Oliver can only create one dimension every day.

⚠ He cannot speak. Due to an accident, his vocal cords can no longer vibrate to produce sound. The most he can muster is a whisper, though painfully.

honestly he’s probably bi because he has gay panic and oneechan saikou,, but also that’s not really on his mind right now

Employment / Education

Oliver followed Ari around in his early days. He doesn’t remember much before the Egg, but he does remember having two wonderful big sisters doting over him.

Teach gave him compulsory education, enough to read and write. He has unfortunately failed her in the maths department, but he can calculate the safety distances of a parkour course perfectly so he thinks he’s good for life.

He is listed as an intern under the Keres as he is still a minor, with Teach as his guardian.

Awards / Achievements

He turned in a blank sheet for his math quiz! Uh… Fen has to think up a new course every month or two because he gets through them so fast!

Medical Record

Third degree burns in the throat and esophagus. Vocal cords are permanently damaged.

Oliver has combined type ADHD. He cannot control his focus very well, and is constantly moving. However, he excels in tense situations like on missions, where improvisation based on split second decisions is necessary for survival.

Markings

He has persistent bruises on his elbows and knees from all the scuffles outside.

Other Distinctive Characteristics

He has large baby eyes. His hair curls upwards and fuzzes up in dry air.

Personality

Oliver is an energetic ray of sunshine that loves being active. He’s gullible and easy to trick, but he loves a good joke and he laughs with you. He can be stubborn when he’s decided upon something, though.

Formative Experiences

He opens the door only to hear soft sobs come from the dimly lit living room. He gently shuts the door and softly pads to the side of a mound of blankets that shudder every so often. He places his hand on top of the mound, then pulls it into a loose hug. They fall asleep in the living room that night.

He lost his voice shortly after moving to the Egg. They removed the wall between their rooms after that and have had an extra large room ever since. Oliver loves having a big room!

He lived with Ari and Fen in the laboratory. They were allowed free time once they finished their tests and assignments, so it was a relatively free childhood, albeit sheltered.

Dreams for the Future

For Ari to live happily. And Fen but he would never admit it in front of Fen.

Fears

Not many! He’s willing to try things.

Hobbies

He loves physical activity and dancing. He listens to a lot of pop music that he choreographs dances to, and he goes through a whole routine on days when he feels like he hasn’t moved enough from training.

His casual wear is light active wear. He wears a sleeved turtleneck with a green V sign on his shoulders, and a sleeveless zip-up. His gesture wristlet sends preset phrases through comms, but he can also pull up a holographic keyboard for text to speech. He wears wide joggers that are baggy and comfortable, and a canvas belt that has buckles for charms. He wears sneakers, as they are essential for zooming.

Special Skills

Oliver knows boxing and taekwondo. He excels in movement and speed, and often uses his agility and dance moves to outmaneuver his opponents.

Oliver’s power can be consolidated into acrylic charms that he clips to his canvas belt buckles. He will activate the charm’s pocket dimension by squeezing it in his hand, then open a rift in the air. There is a time limit to how long the rift is open, so accidents can happen where only half of a thing crosses dimensions. Oliver can store things in these pocket dimensions, and time is frozen for perishables within the dimensions.

Strengths

Oliver is a happy-go-lucky guy. His golden retriever energy is infectious, and people can never feel down for too long around him.

Weaknesses

He is very co-dependent on Ari, and sometimes seems lost without her. He is okay when he’s with Fen, but he can never go for too long away from Ari. When they go out together, Oliver will do that dog thing where he bounds forward in excitement, then looks back to make sure Ari is following.

Other

  • Oliver’s love language is touch. Feeling is believing, after all
  • Oliver speaks English and ASL. He picked up bits of Latin from Ari’s studies, enough to annoy her with made up words
  • He uses the wristlet text to speech function to troll and prank others, but he will only use ASL or handwriting when he wants to be honest and genuine. His voice is his last resort as it is very painful to speak
  • Oliver is assumed to be associated with the Latin oliva, or “olive tree”.

Social

People They Admire

Masters of craft. He also admires Fen and sees him as a really cool older brother

People They Dislike

Authority figures that command absolute obedience

Relationships

Teach

Oliver is very happy Teach is his teacher. She knows a lot! He’s sad that she isn’t very sporty, though. He runs laps around her whenever they go on walks together.

Fen

Fen is the coolest brother Oliver never had. Fen makes training sets for Oliver, and Oliver finds ways to mess with Fen during their spars, forcing Fen to think up different strategies. They keep each other sharp.

Oliver and Fen have a mutual pranking streak of 342. The pranks got mean once, and Ari had a mental breakdown. Fen and Oliver looked at each other and pledged never to let the pranks turn sour again.

Valeri

Oliver is slightly intimidated by Valeri. He’s not sure what to do in the same space as a strong, confident woman. It was really fun to race her, and he was really impressed! Especially when she did all of that in heeled boots! He would love to race her more.

Vino

Oliver holds out a fist. Vino timidly bumps it. Oliver grins and Vino smiles.

Family Relationships

Ari

Ari and Oli are so close, they may as well be attached at the hip. They tell each other everything; Oli losing his voice just made his words per minute shoot up and Ari can barely get a word in. Oli lets Ari nag him, because he knows she’s looking out for him. When it gets too much, he’ll fight back, but he knows they’ll stick together no matter what.

Problematic Relationships

Darian

Oliver doesn’t like Darian. Sure, he’s his boss, but that doesn’t mean Oliver will agree to everything Darian says. Orders are orders, but if they don’t make sense, Oliver will make sure Darian feels it. He hides behind Fen and avoids going to Darian’s office alone as much as possible. Something is wrong with that dude.

Soren

Oliver hates Soren. He won’t say he’s scared, but he’s scared. When Fen spars with him, the punches hurt. When Soren spars with him, Oliver feels the bloodthirst in the air. One mistake and he will die. Also, Soren made Ari cry. Nobody, nobody, makes his sister cry.

Cafe Nowhere Oli

Cafe Nowhere Oli lives off of energy drinks, but he’s always down for a warm cup of honey milk. It’s good for the soul and it knocks him out!

Oliver is a high school senior aiming for an athlete scholarship. He likes the cafe’s pastries. He can still speak, but he’ll lose his voice before graduation…
