Profile
Oscar is a person with the ability to shapeshift into any animal (mythical or otherwise) depending on their emotions. They barely ever exist in their human form. Since their power is emotion dependent, they can’t change it or control it, it just happens. Sometimes they’ll change into a completely different animal even if they’re feeling the same or a super similar emotion again, it’s super dependent on what’s happening around them and how they’re reacting to it. If they're feeling multiple emotions, they will be the animal of whichever one is the strongest. They can’t talk while in animal form because of how restricted animal vocal cords are, but when they have opposable thumbs they will write on a dry-erase board to communicate. After many months with the dry-erase board, Niles developed a collar for them that allowed them to communicate through it. Their most common animal to shapeshift into is a rabbit.
Oscar exists from Niles’ attempts to create “the ultimate lifeform” with qualities of every species that walks the Earth. He let them loose, into the world, but he had a tracker chip in them from day one, so when he was reunited with them, it would be a "coincidental bumping into."

Niles is the person that Oscar is closest with in the Doom Patrol, and the two are romantic partners. Niles studies their behavior patterns for his guide for everyone else as to which emotions are associated with which of their animal forms.
Cliff is a father figure to Oscar. These feelings caught the both of them off guard, and Oscar was the first one to admit to the way they see Cliff, but it is reciprocated. Cliff really sees them as if they're his kid.
