TW, death, abandonment, illness Abandonment issues :,0 Oliver was adopted by a family with two kids at around 5 months old. He was always energetic - and his family was fed up. They tried several ways to "fix" him, having him settle. They declawed him, and when that only made him louder, they gave up and threw him out of their house, and he lived on the street for around 2 more months before wandering into the rural countryside. He was rescued by a kind old engineer, who always showed Ollie love until his final moments. Ollie was distraught after losing him, he was the closest thing to a parent or friend he'd ever had. He couldn't go near the engineer's old home, the memories made him sick. He wandered around awhile before realizing he was just avoiding his issues by staying away from the engineers old house, and converted it into his own workstation (see 11). He was in a fit of sadness for some time before growing out of it, deciding to keep working on engineering to honor his owner. 1: His "official" ref 2: GOOBER HES SO CUTEE 3: I got lazy and didn't color lol 4: He sniff your screen :3 5: Meant to be set before being taken in by the engineer and after being abandoned, him looking over at the city. 6: Kinda him wondering about if he's still good enough after being declawed and "weird" 7: He's normally very sweet, someone must've said something TERRIBLE to get him so mad 8: Basic art lmaoo 9: Idk why but his anatomy is so cute in this lol 10: He really likes weird food combinations, like fish and bacon, cheese and butter, and watermelon and egg. He has special taste buds :,D 11: What I mapped out of his workshop. On the far left is where he tinkers with larger contraptions, the top is made of weaved bronze wires so he can stand there sometimes when it rains or snows and feel it. Under that is there he works on the smaller contraptions. In the middle is both the Engineers old room (he avoids that area) and a guest room where he has his friends chill with him. On the far right is what was once a grain silo, but is now his bedroom. Its a small space, but he really only has a bed in there and a desk for his smallest contraptions. He sometimes sells his contraptions, usually for cheap, and tries to make fun trinkets for his friends. Theres a window in his room at the silo, he likes to stargaze from there or even at the bronze wired workshop (which he calls The Lookout because you can see the sky and everything from it.) 12: @Bracejaw1000 made a funny suggestion, he made metal prosthetic claws to replace the ones he lost, and I just imagine he wears them only on occasion as like a Halloween costume (his favorite holiday btw despite getting scared easily) cuz he hates hurting others but they look cool lmao 13: Pumpkin heehee he like Halloween 14: His roomate, Bailey(, who lives below his hideout in the silo, blocked by tons insulation so no sound carries). His nickname is Beacon. His headset is optional, he only wears it in his own hideout. However, he wears a red scarf constantly. He's a Border Collie-Labrador. Has a white chest marking under his scarf.
