About
A widower, a hermit, that's what Oliver has become.
From battle to nowhere
He fought in the War of All Things a few years back, utilising his monstrous power. The bloodshed, the confusion, the foul smell of death... all of it felt like a nightmare... Then she died. Oliver felt the world crumble right before him as he held her in his hairy arms. He screamed for a healer but she weakly stopped him. She nervously fidgeted with her ring before she gave it to him. A quick flash of light meant she was gone, dead somewhere in the multiverse.
Oliver fled right then and there. It's not like he'd ever return to OO-0000... He spent many years looking for her to no avail. Once a dimenller dies, it is near impossible to pinpoint their "final destination", so it was certainly a hopeless task. That's why he stopped.
JH-1007: A ferryman of fate
He settled in JH-1007, working as a ferryman in the Baltic sea. His last job was significantly different than the rest, since it was connected to a criminal organisation. He'd expect it to revolve around dumping bodies, but strangely enough it was the rescue and safe transportation of a little child. After the job, he returned to his little boat to introspect, clutching his hat in his hands. The monster would not get him today...
A little girl flashed through his thoughts; he had never seen her before. It was strange and it certainly caught him off guard but he assumed it was just a trick of the subconscious... he never thought that very same girl would show up on a boat next to some seasick “professor” with vitiligo.
It took a lot of arguing for Gordon and Timothy to persuade this new dimenller to join them in OO-0000. Oliver had bad memories of it and resisted succumbing to the monster when he finally arrived. He didn’t want anyone there finding out his secret, at least not this soon...
Fun Facts!
- His favourite colour is orange.
- Sad man, sad life.
- He is quite the loner but joins the team in missions in order to stay at OO-0000 as little as possible.
- He actually liked his ferry job.
- He misses his wife a lot...
- He would enjoy playing pool, polo and ping-pong.
- Initially unbeknownst to the team, he owns two items:
- His wife’s ring instantly lightens the atmosphere and makes everyone think more positively.
- His hat turns him into a monster for random intervals. He actively denies that form of himself thinking it wild and unpredictable.
- He has significant physical strength which he is not fond of using.
Relationships
Lara [ deceased wife ]
She was the love of his life, his other half. She protected him from his power, she supported him through all hard times. They were each other's bread and butter... and then she died. It has been hard for Oliver to cope with her death and... the handling of her past belongings.
The monster [ alter ego ]
He hates it, he hates that it is a part of him. The first time he discovered "the monster", he was very young. His unique trait was cool and it amazed all his friends! It was a useful asset during the War of All Things, that's for sure but... its soul was dark and empty. The monster blindly attacked everyone it saw, friend and foe. It always disregarded Oliver's command to stop. It had a mind of its own...
Gordon [ weird kid ]
His peaceful nightly lookout was interrupted by a little girl appearing in his mind. He had never seen her before, neither did he know who she could be. He found out as soon as Gordon and Timothy appeared in his dimension. This little impressionable dimenller caught his attention quite quickly, mostly due to her naivety. "She's too young, she'll learn eventually".
Timothy [ pushy kid ]
The one that tagged along during Gordon's journey was Timothy, a reserved inventor who'd rather stay in OO-0000. However, he seemed quite interested in Oliver, which made the other wary. Oliver had many secrets to hide and he didn't want a little kid digging about his past. He tries to avoid meeting up with him.
Matthew [ overactive kid ]
He goes around as if he knows about love. He keeps talking about conquest and silly tricks to gain the heart of a person. He looks like a man (woman?) ready to discard anyone with enough passion for him.
...Unless he really has feelings for the people he falls in love with. Hmph.
Beth [ overwhelming kid ]
She's the supposed "leader" of this Dimenller team he's been suddenly thrust into. Unfortunately, she is a big reason why he gets pushed around to join each mission due to his "knowledge" or whatever. She also thinks his trait of positivity to be very encouraging for the team. If only she knew...
Ryan [ indifferent kid ]
Ryan and Oliver don't interact much. They don't like talking and he likes being left alone with his own thoughts. Nevertheless, Oliver thinks they are the most mature one out of the group, purely for their excellent skills of empathy and simple comprehension. He's sure everyone has picked up on his weirdness; they're just the only one who never tried to uncover it for themselves.
