And if you had any hair I'd take that too!"
Hair: Ollie tends to wear his blonde hair short and spiked up a little, mostly to keep it out of his eyes, though he does have to admit he looks good.
Eyes: Ollie's eyes are almond shaped and a vivid green, which often deceive him as they show is emotions.
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 195 lbs.
Distinguishing Marks:N/A
Appearance: To say the least, Mr.Queen is a good looking fellow. He's a tall blonde fellow, standing at six foot two inches with a toned physic. He tends to keep his face cleanly shaven, however there are cases when Ollie doesn't, generally meaning he's not feeling too well. When he's not feeling too well, his eyes are a dull green. But generally they are a vivid shade that often show his true emotions, whether they show a twinkle of a mischievous thought or are harsh with anger. It's often easy to tell how he really feels, if you pay attention.
His attire generally is that of suits when out in the public eye, at the clubs or have you, and at Queen Enterprises. However, when at home Ollie dresses down quite a lot, in a t-shirt and jeans, as he is often training or just relaxing. His Green Arrow costume consists of green spandex with stripes of black and a hood as well as green boots.

Personality: Oliver Queen has a strong personality. His passion and intensity make this so, though he has trouble finding direction. Being an heir and rich his whole life, he never really knew the definition of responsibility. But the experience he had when he was ship-wrecked taught him self-reliance. He knows that he needs to rely and will rely on himself and no one else. However, his experience with Speedy has made him more of a protective person as well as give him more direction. Looking after someone, had opened his eyes and showed him there was more out there, then just partying.
Queen however still has that adventurer inside of him. Fighting crime gives him the fix that he needs. This, as well as, drinking and flirting help him to forget about his parents' death. Though his father was very strict, their death hit him hard, especially how they died. Yes Queen does flirt, but this doesn't mean he isn't faithful. When in a serious relationship, Queen is faithful, mostly, however there are times where he slips up and cheats. He tries his best and works hard to make sure it doesn't happen again. But he is only a man after all and dangerous women attracts him.
"With great power comes great responsibility"
Powers: N/A
Weapons
- Custom Bow
- Quiver
- Trick Arrows
- Kitana
Strengths/Abilities:
+ Aviation - This could be due to his Adrenaline junky issue. Being up high in the sky, there is certainly nothing like it. It started out as a hobby at first, and soon grew to be a useful skill. He even has his own plane know as the Arrowplane.
+ Archery - Going back to his childhood, Oliver had always been fascinated with Robin Hood and his good deeds. However, being rich, Ollie never really had that chance to fully personify Robin Hood. He decided to take archery, at least having that in common as it was actually the most important. His father approved as it was a way to learn how to survive in the world. He's proven himself to be a great archer and even is considered a Master.
+ Martial Arts - Oliver decided that he would need a third ability to fall on incase he wasn't able to use his bow nor his kitana. Not being very strong, Ollie wanted to prove that he had some physical ability so he proved it with hand to hand combat. He even trained with the best Martial Arts teachers in order to insure this.
+ Swordsman - Needing something to fall back on besides Archery, Oliver decided to take up a second skill with a weapon which would be Sword fighting as it was easiest to carry with him and his bow, which he didn't have to worry bullets either. However, his bow is always his first choice when it comes to fighting.
+ Cooking - One strength that doesn't entirely rely on his wealth is cooking. Ollie loves to cook and in fact he does it often, more as an outlet then his social gatherings. It's one thing he prefers to do himself.
Weaknesses:
- Dangerous Woman - Oliver has an attraction to dangerous woman which certainly could be his downfall. No not villians, but woman, heroines, who can certainly take care of themselves. Whether they are mysterious or highly skilled with a knife, they catch Oliver's eye.
- Alcohol - Yes, Oliver does use this as a vice, however, he would not consider himself an alcoholic. It's something he has always used to forget about his parents, numb his pain, or in order to keep the party going, at least for him. However, he's tried to tone it down since Speedy's entered the picture. He wouldn't be a very good role model after all.
- Speedy - Speedy could be considered a liability. Even though Speedy could probably take care of himself, his age causes Ollie to be protective of him, as he is younger. So Oliver would recklessly put himself in harms way in order to save or help Speedy.
- Not That Strong- Oddly enough Ollie is not that strong. He may know Martial Arts or be able to sword fight with a kitana. But if a man were to throw his full body weight on Ollie, he would have a hard time getting the man off of him.
- Adrenaline Junky- Oliver has an issue when it comes to Adrenaline and he often seeks it, one of the reasons why he has become a crime fighter. As he shamefully admits that it's more the hunt then actually helping people. He had good intentions, being like Robin Hood when he was a child, but his childhood fantasies have gone away and so he mostly does it in order to get that high.

History: Oliver Jonas Queen was born to Henry and Moira Queen on September third. Oliver's hero was Robin Hood and he soon began to get into archery and martial arts. However that stopped after he killed an animal, this of course frightened him. Born into wealth Oliver never really knew the true meaning of responsibility. He took the death of his parents' very hard, however, even though his uncle took him in. Inheriting the business, he used the money to support his life of luxury in order to forget the tragedy.
Two experiences on Star Fish Island, changed Oliver and turned him into the Green Arrow we all love and know. Falling off his boat, Oliver washed up on the shore of Star Fish Island. He had to rely on himself to survive, and soon took up archery again. He became very skilled at this and became a hunter. Being out in the wild gave Oliver a sense of adventure that he had never had before. The second experience occurred when he found drug smugglers on the island. Using his new abilities he destroyed their operations and took them to the authorities before returning home. Once home he realized that he still had that hunger for adventure, he used his new abilities and became Green Arrow.
However, Oliver was still living that oh so luxurious life, parties, social events, you named it as he still didn't find a strong path to follow, as he just learned to rely on himself. But a boy by the name of Roy Harper soon changed that. Roy Harper was a fan of Green Arrow, mainly because he was an Archer like Roy was as well as Roy's mentor Brave Bow. Oliver met with Roy, seeing his skills and knowing that the kid was in trouble, he decided to give this sidekick thing a shot. Roy, rather Speedy, did prove himself to Oliver and Oliver decided to take Speedy in as a ward. He's grown protective of the boy and the boy has helped to tone down Ollie's play-boyish millionaire ways.
Oliver soon found new ways to spend his wealth as he began to secretly fund this new League known as the Justice League. He didn't have any contact with the members personally, and used Simon Carr as a middle man. However, Mr.Carr soon let it slip on who Oliver was as well as his secret identity, as he cracked under all the questions. The team soon decided to vote him in and now Oliver is a part of the Justice League.

Writing Sample:
Rain pelted down over Metropolis as Ollie jumped onto his penthouse balcony and opened up the door. Slamming it behind him, he let the hood fall and sighed heavily as he looked up to see if he was alone. Of course he was, even Speedy wasn't there. He rolled his shoulders as he unzipped his suit and pulled his arms out of the spandex, letting it drop around his waist. His torso exposed as he looked down to examine the couple cuts he had, one on his chest and the other on his stomach.
Ollie sat on the couch as he pulled off his boots and one after the other tossed them towards his room. Yeah he only had a hidden wall by his room to hide his suit, he wasn't all fancy like Batman was. Another sigh left Ollie's lips as he closed his eyes for a brief moment and hung his head back, not carrying that the water he was covered in was ruining his white leather couch. However that same water trickled down his heaving chest towards the wound on his stomach. A shock of pain caused him to jolt up as his green eyes shot open. It was strange how a small cut could hurt so bad.
"Son of a bitch" he murmured to himself as he got up and began to take the rest of his costume off, heading towards the shower. It seemed the criminals had gotten a lucky shot or two before Ollie got his hands on them. It didn't bother him any, maybe a few battle scars would win him some points with the ladies.
Ollie let the warm water wash away the coldness on his skin as he let his mind wander. Mostly of the two social events he had that week, where Roy was, and then of an old flame. A smile formed on his lips as he thought of her and wondered for a brief moment if he should give her a call. He soon got out of the shower as he wrapped the towel around his waist and running a hand through his short blonde hair. Ollie walked out of the bathroom as he gazed at his cellphone, soon deciding against it. She was probably with someone else after all it had been a while.
Instead, he decided to pour himself a glass of Scotch, to chase away the rainy evening thoughts. He took a sip before his eyes shot to the door as it buzzed, signaling that he had company.
