PERSONALITY

Charmer |

Above all things, Oliver is a charmer. Ever since he was a child, Oliver has been capable of talking just about anyone into doing what he wants as well as having a trademark allure about him that makes just about anyone feel a small soft spot for him. Oliver's charisma knows no bounds and the man can come across completely at one with the world, as if everything has worked perfectly for him in life and those he meets are but another step on his journey. When he meets a person, it is obvious from the get-go that Oliver is a charmer; he always has a little bit of time to say hello and always seemingly wants to enquire about the state of the other person. He seems to naturally understand how to drop people’s guards with A well placed touch here or there along with his gentlemanly British demeanor, making him ooze with charm and charisma.

Confident |

When the chips are down Oliver is never one to second guess his abilities. If things go wrong, he never ponders how things have gone astray but rather how he can fix them. As such, in life Oliver goes through life with an assured confidence of himself and of his abilities. Mostly this translates over to his actions in life meaning he is always sure of his decisions and always comes across genuine in his actions. At the same time this can also give Oliver a slight egotistical streak and those that get off on the wrong foot with him or don't fall to his charm can find him overly arrogant. He never apologizes for wrong doings unless he knows he was in the fault and even then this is few and far between.

Flirtacious |

Being a young man of refined taste Oliver never ever fails to appreciate a pretty woman. With his confident swagger and charming nature, it is hard not to like the man either. Further down though the man has yet to find anyone he would commit with, preferring to keep his women at arm’s length to stop getting bogged down in emotional connection. That doesn't mean that he doesn't compliment and flirt his way through life - though he only has eyes for the fairer sex, the man knows how to play to his audience and will flirt his way through almost any scenario, even a fight if needs be and almost always prefers to be the dominant one in the situation

The Manipulator |

Oliver has one goal in life: to live and live well, whether that is through winning a life or death fight or with a pretty woman on his arm, the young man is willing to do almost anything to manipulate the social environment to his liking. Oliver can do this in such a way however that nobody even notices he does it unless they know him on a personal level. Capable of applying the slightest pressure to a situation or being entirely false, the man can manipulate the situation as he sees fit - if he chooses to, Oliver doesn't thrive to make a social situation a bad event but if it is required, he will.

The Sadistic |

Of course with all enigmatic personalities comes down sides. For Oliver this is no different, after all he is a child of Hades. When riled into a frenzy a truer, darker fraction of Oliver can come to light. The young man is a complete and utter sadist at heart. Even though he can turn the social situation to make it seem like he has the heart of an angel, nothing gives him more secret pleasure than seeing those he has no strong affiliation with suffer. It is perhaps why Oliver never sticks to one particular woman, enjoying the chase more than the catch and cutting ties thereafter. Translated over to a fight, Oliver likes to make his opponent suffer and takes great gratification in making them die in humiliation. To some extent Oliver is able to play this off as a lighthearted foible, but underneath the man's charismatic mask is the soul of a cruel young man who doesn't mind throwing honor aside if it gets him the win.

HISTORY

Oliver’s story starts in England during the 18th century. His mother was a young and beautiful lady from a noble house. As with all high-born young ladies, many men competed for her attention, most did so out of love and adoration of her beauty, but others coveted her family’s wealth. For many years’ men had tried to gain her attention and had failed, until a dark, handsome, and mysterious stranger rode into town. The man was clearly not British, he was foreign, and he seemed to be very well-traveled. He managed to successfully court her thanks to his vast knowledge about the world, his vast collection of books and art from foreign lands, and the exciting stories he had accumulated from his travels.

This man was much more interesting than the men that had perused her for her entire life, so eventually she fell in love with him. Despite her family’s warnings against it she eventually had this man’s child. Unaware that this man was the Greek god Hades. After nine months, a healthy baby boy was born and was given the name Oliver. By then Hades had disappeared but it didn’t matter, Oliver had been lucky enough to be born into a noble family that was able to provide the best education for a young lord of his stature back in the 18th century.

He was groomed for excellence for most of his childhood. But when he turned 10, The Greek gods became aware of a prophecy that involved Oliver. It was said that the young demigod would grow to become a powerful noble and he would use his family’s wealth along with his godly powers to overpower the royal family and take over 18th century England. It was prophesied that during Oliver's rule, there would be wars and bloodshed, not just among mortals but also among demigods. Countless souls would line up to cross the river Styx and the underworld would overflow with the souls of mortals and the offspring of the gods. So, the gods decided to prevent this prophecy from becoming a reality by having Oliver killed. Upon hearing this, Hades asked to carry out the deed himself.

Luckily, Hades was incapable of killing his son. Hearing the prophecy about Oliver made Hades feel like it would be a shame to kill his son and waste all of his potential. So instead of killing him, Hades kept Oliver in stasis in the underworld until the timeline for his predicted rule over England had passed. As a result, the royal family continued to rule over England until the modern-day and the predicted wars and bloodshed among humans and Demigods never came to be. Now that the timeline of the prophecy had passed Hades figured it would be safe for his son to go back to the mortal world. So he dropped off an unconscious Oliver at Camp Half-Blood. Initially, it was very difficult for Oliver to adjust to the new world because it was so different from the world he had snt his childhood in. But he eventually adapted. However, he still hasn't lost his original accent and the habits that were instilled in him as a child by his noble family.

Hades claimed Oliver as his offspring and although Oliver was young when he first arrived at Camp Half Blood. His intelligence and his quick developing powers made him a force to be dealt with. Currently, Oliver is 17. Most of the teachers at camp half-blood are still a bit wary about Oliver and so are some of the gods. Even though the timeline for his dark prophecy has come and gone, they still believe that he might one day rise to power and fulfill his dark destiny.

D Dog
When Hades brought Oliver out of the underworld at the age of 10 and dropped him off at camp Half blood , he gifted Oliver with a demonic dog because he had no family or friends to watch over him in this strange new future world. In his initial form, D Dog looks like a normal wolf-dog with black fur. However, if Oliver is threatened D dog transforms into an intimidating demonic dog big enough for Oliver to comfortably ride.


Over the years Oliver has built a very strong bond with this dog and he often calls him D Dog which is short for Demon Dog.
