He has a thin wiry build, that doesn't show muscles really, though he has strong arms from years in the forge, and what he lacks in strength he makes up for in speed and precision. He has black hair, and red eyes [/b][/color][/indent][/indent] [b][u][color=white]Personality[/color][/u][/b] [indent][indent][color=A1A1A1][b] He is a high functioning autist, with a fixation on War history, he appears outgoing and is a natural leader, but likes solitude, and enjoys the darkness and calm. He loves to help others as it brings him great joy, knowing he does the best he can to improve the lives of others. You might become his 'friend' rather quickly, but he is slow to fully trust, but when he does he will risk life and limb for them, as he has proven, by risking his life to drag a friend out of a forge, after oil from a quench spilled and hit a propane tank.

[/b][/color][/indent][/indent] [b][u][color=white]Skills[/color][/u][/b] [indent][color=A1A1A1][b] Good leader/organizer, good blacksmith (can forge with modern and traditional techniques. can forge knives/swords and such and flintlocks/matchlocks. and plate armor) knows the premise of casting but has no experience. Knows a fair bit about ship construction due to its strategic importance in military engagements and logistics. Good night vision. knows a bit about wilderness survival (but not that much, he basically knows not to trust shrooms, and thats it.), and can hunt.

His dad emigrated and brought him due to the increased freedom and the promise of a high paying job as a blacksmith. Olliver Grew up watching, and helping, his dad in the forge, and that is where he picked up the trade. He found that he had a love for military history and strategy, and as such decided that he could combine the 2 things he loved and become a highly respected Historical Weapons Recreation specialist, who specialized in making pieces that could function not just sit on the mantle. What he lacks in formal education in terms of blacksmithing is more than made up for his 2 decades practicing the trade, more than anyone else in the field can boast of at such a young age, there is even video proof of him pounding metal at the age of 10.[/b][/color][/indent] [b][u][color=white]Goals/Plans[/color][/u][/b] [indent][color=A1A1A1][b] Establish quality weapons, military tactics and training, possibly establish naval supremacy [/b][/color][/indent] [b][u][color=white]Why you picked your location[/color][/u][/b] [indent][color=A1A1A1][b] Because I think it would be interesting to see what would happen if Japan had expanded, and had access to western/modern forging techniques[/b][/color][/indent] [b][u][color=white]Character Motivations[/color][/u][/b] [indent][color=A1A1A1][b] Improve the lives of others every way he can, and help guide them. Even if it means he doesn't get to live a life of peace, it is his duty too help who - and where he can.
