His parent's death at the hands of poachers during a safari trip started his downfall. It didn't help that his uncle was a well-known socialite that dragged Oliver to his parties often. That was where he was introduced to alcohol during his junior year of high school. Everyone around knew that Oliver was going to end up like his uncle. Until he boarded a private jet, to celebrate his twenty-first birthday, and vanished over the ocean. The jet lost power in its engine and crash-landed on the island, killing most of the passages upon impact. Oliver survived with a few cuts and bruises discovered that his bow (gifted by his father and often used as a party trick) remained intact. He was forced to use it on a wild boar, who was about to attack Sandra Hawke, his girlfriend at the time. Upon meeting with the remaining survivors, Oliver realized that they were stranded with no idea of when, and if, help was coming. In his time stranded, Oliver developed his skills as a hunter to survive and gained mastery over his bow. It forced him to reflect on his privileged life, making him self-reliant and humble. And trying to keep the other survivors alive made him understand and value others besides himself. It took a year before rescue crews found and brought them back to Star City. Upon his return, Oliver wanted answers behind the jet's sudden malfunction and it lead to his uncle. He was motivated by greed and the desire for power to sabotage the jet, hoping it would kill his nephew. It was also discovered that Queen Industries began selling illegal weaponry under the table to other countries and companies. When Oliver found out, he wanted to bring him and his friends to justice. However, he needed a disguise to protect his identity for his uncle. It was when he remembered his childhood hero, Robin Hood, and based his costume on him. Using all of the skills that he learned on the island, Oliver was able to fight and apprehend them before the police showed up. But instead of going trial, his uncle was found dead in his cell. The police report said that he hung himself, but Oliver didn't believe it. He understood that his uncle and SCPD were working together, but he needed to dig deeper.[/i][/indent][/indent] [COLOR=WHITE][INDENT][B][SUP][SUB][H3]C H A R A C T E R M O T I V A T I O N S & G O A L S:[/H3][/SUB][/SUP][/B][/INDENT][hr][/COLOR][INDENT][INDENT][i]Why do you want to play this character, what is the driving motivation behind both this desire and the character themselves.
