|Description=This tall man appears to be in his prime, and of a build of a toned and almost stocky nature. Close-cropped blonde hair rests atop his head, and his eyes gleam behind a dark green domino mask that extends to his blonde arched brows and the bridge of his sharp nose. The nose ends in a slight point, hooked down above his mouth. A thick moustache of the same bright color as his hair curves into a well-groomed van dyke-styled beard, which protrudes about an inch outward from his firm, set chin.<br><br>He is dressed in a dark green outfit whose hood sits over his head, framing his face. He wears a sleeveless jacket whose chest and shoulders are reinforced with thin armor plating, while slung over the man's back by a pair of shoulder straps is a large quiver filled with arrows. A pair of archer's bracers are attached to his forearms and fingerless tactical gloves cover his hands. The man's pants are a tough black fabric that tuck into a pair of dark green boots with reinforcement plates from the knee down to the toe.
A skill initially developed alongside his hunting and survival skills, Olivier Queen is an agile acrobat, capable of performing a number of difficult and complex physical feats that might injure or otherwise compromise another individual's body. He continues to abuse his body daily in order to keep his skills at their peak.
|History=Oliver Queen was born into wealth and power, the son of industrialist Robert Queen, founder and head of Queens Consolidated. He spent his entire childhood as a snotty brat whose days were spent avoiding his education and his evenings socializing and clubbing. His one sincere self-improvement activity was archery; after being inspired by the tales of Robin Hood at a young age, Oliver successfully begged his parents for a bow and arrow set at age seven. He would barely put it down--at least until he killed a rabbit and learned a sobering lesson on mortality.<br><br>Over his teenage years Ollie found a bit of focus, studying laborously in school but preferring to spend all possible free time slacking off. Thanks to his family's wealth and connections, Oliver attended an Ivy League college, but he mostly slept through his courses.<br><br>On a vacation with his father upon the family's yacht, Oliver's life would change forever. The ship wrecked, and he was the craft's only survivor--he washed up on a deserted starfish-shaped island, where he spent several years learning to hunt, track, and survive with the aid of his archery skills while trying to come to terms with the tragedy that had befallen him--and, in the process, dealing with a number of other individuals who, unbeknownst to Queen, were on the island as well.<br><br>When Oliver was eventually found, he found himself a radically different person: where before he was carefree and unconcerned with others' conditions, now the young man wanted to make use of his 'second chance' at life to try and help others as he could. Finding Starling City in need of a hero, Oliver decided to don a green costume, hide his identity, and serve his fellow citizens as 'the Green Arrow'. At the same time, Oliver was determined to improve the world, promoting a number of progressive initiatives through Queens Consolidated's massive influence in a number of industries and political spheres.<br><br>Since that time, Oliver has spent the last several years amassing a cabal of allies--in the city and abroad--to help him in his quest, even as he finds himself opposed more and more by a growing population of enemies. The work, it seems, must continue.
 
|Personality=Queen is an incredibly focused and dedicated individual. Having a life-changing experience during his time marooned in the China Sea, Oliver both believes zealously in helping others survive (so as to avoid any sense of tragedy he has felt) and thrive, as well as in doing everything he can to use the skills he developed (so as not to have wasted the practical lessons of that experience).<br><br>This sense of dedication extends beyond what change Queen believes he can personally effect; he believes his family's industrialist tendencies have made the world worse than it could be, and so he wants to do all he can to help the world progress, rather than regress, philosophically and politically.<br><br>Despite the focus on his work, Queen does not look on his work as a burden so much as an opportunity, and thus he has come to be relatively jovial and enthusiastic for working with others who share his goals and ideals--a potentially morbid sense of humor and satisfaction, given Queen's recognition that he's doing the work of a superhero armed only with a bow and some arrows.

His abilities to trace the path of an animal or person are well matched with his steady hand and collected calm in facing them down. He can be thrown off track, of course, as can any hunter. On a related note, Queen is skilled at moving and acting stealthily, given the need to prevent alerting prey to his presence.

ATHLETICS
Since being shipwrecked, Oliver Queen has honed his body to nearly its limits. Compared to most other non-powered humans, Queen has exceptional stamina, strength, and speed, as well as an ability to deal with pain and fatigue beyond normal capacity.
 
BUSINESS
Since his return to Starling City, Oliver has spent the last several years honing his business and administrative skills, learning to run and delegate duties for Queens Consolidated efficiently and effectively. He's not quite a born prodigy for it, but Oliver has taken to approaching his work as a businessman with the same zeal and focus as he does his vigilante efforts.
 
COOKING
Some might not call this a 'skill,' but Queen is proud of his ability to cook--especially dishes that are particularly spicy. (Some might also say he's just leaning on the spiciness to mask his culinary shortcomings.) Whether it's good or not, his knowledge of cooking is rather vast, and Queen can whip up a dish on the spot from most ingredients put before him.
 
MARTIAL ARTS
Queen is an expert martial artist, in terms of both unarmed and armed close quarters combat. He's studied such approaches as judo, aikido, kung fu, SAS combat, and krav maga, trying to meld together the fighting styles in order to be as effective as can be. While he may not be the top combatant in any individual form (or with any particular melee weapon), Queen can hold his own against the vast majority of opponents.
 
SURVIVAL
Thanks to his time shipwrecked on a desert island, Queen has become a superb hunter and tracker. His abilities to trace the path of an animal or person are well matched with his steady hand and collected calm in facing them down. He can be thrown off track, of course, as can any hunter. On a related note, Queen is skilled at moving and acting stealthily, given the need to prevent alerting prey to his presence.
|Resources=ALLIES
While he may often feel like he's fighting a good fight alone, the Green Arrow is accompanied--if not surrounded--by a circle of allies (sometimes referred to as "Team Arrow") that he can faithfully rely on for aid when needed, especially when their areas of expertise fill gaps in his own. They, in turn, trust that he'll be equally loyal to them when they need his help.
 
EQUIPMENT
The Green Arrow's most frequently-used equipment includes a set of various bows of differing weights and substance (longbows, shortbows, break-down compound bows) for various purposes, generally capable of surviving improvisational use in close-quarters fighting and short-term support of Queen's weight when zip-lining.
 
The bows are complemented by an arsenal of arrows, conventional and special alike. Most of the Green Arrow's projectiles are lightweight, razor-sharp arrows. However, many others are highly specialized and serve unique purposes. These range from arrows equipped with audio recording technology, explosive-tipped arrows, arrows that provide zip-line anchoring, electro-shock arrows, and even the occasional boxing glove arrow.
 
In addition to his most iconic equipment, Queen also has access to a number of other conventional resources, from vehicles (e.g., motorcycles and Queens Consolidated jets) to voice-modulation devices to flexible body armor and computer technology.
 
FINANCES
Thanks to his majority shares of Queens Consolidated (inherited from his father), Oliver can exert considerable control over the direction of the company. It's not always accepted without question, and he can't quite divert tons of cash into private R&D like other tycoons might, but Queen can reasonably assume he'll have support for legal activities he wants the company to engage in, so long as it doesn't seem like market suicide. This also means that he has a personal fortune from the profits that he (and his family before him) accumulated as a result of Queens Consolidated's activity.
|Weaknesses=IDEALS
Unlike many heroes, the Green Arrow--and Oliver Queen--espouses an explicit political agenda, and he works to support that agenda. Sometimes, this means that he loses potential allies that want to keep out of the political limelight. Other times, it means that certain groups target him specifically because he's known to oppose their causes.
 
IDENTITY
Not unlike Bruce Wayne, Oliver Queen has to constantly keep up a public facade of his identity, coming across as a vapid playboy, in order to throw off suspicion that he might be the Green Arrow. This is not always successful, and it forces Queen to act in many ways antithetical to his actual beliefs, but it remains a necessity to keep his identiy secret.
 
PTSD
While his experience on the island transformed Oliver Queen from a brat into (what would become) a hero, he has never entirely healed, psychologically speaking, from the five-year isolation he lived through. He lost his family, he lost all sense of self-importance, he lost his innocence--and, occasionally, Oliver gets overwhelmed by intense flashes of memory where he relives parts of that time all over again and, depending on how unexpected they may be, is left unsure of how to handle it.
 
ROGUES
The Green Arrow has amassed a considerable group of criminal enemies, costumed and non-costumed alike, since initially taking up the persona. The vast majority would stop at nothing to see him--if not also his loved ones--tortured or killed, and so Queen must take considerable care on a daily basis to make sure that he is not inadvertently risking their lives or his own (to a degree beyond what he's willing to accept for the latter, at least).

Quote
"You remember what we did yesterday? We saved the world - again. You don't think that has any value, well, think again, pal. The Justice League goes on, with or without you. Look, nobody can question your service or commitment to making things better. If you're quitting because you think you've already done your fair share, we'll throw you a parade. But if you're quitting because it's easier then continuing the fight, then you're not the heroes we all thought you were. The world needs the Justice League... and the Justice League needs you."
