LET THE WHOLE THING BLOW
B A S I C I N F O
★ NAME: Oliver Radleigh
★ NICKNAME: Oli ;; That Bastard ;; Asshole ;; Boss
★ MEMBER GROUP: Team Rocket Leader ;; Gijinka
★ POKEMON: Salamence
★ AGE: Twenty - Four
★ HEIGHT: 6'2"
★ WEIGHT: 170
★ FACE CLAIM: Nanaya from Monochrome Factor
★ APPEARANCE:
Reaching a height of 6'2" and weighing 170 lbs, most of which appears to be muscle under his pale skin - there's nothing small about the boy - he's tall, muscular daunting and has an attitude to match. Due to a life with a fairly rocky start, Oliver has made several promises to himself, and keeping them means keeping himself fit and trim with training, and certainly does a good job at it - working rather vigilantly, he keeps his physique at its peak.
In sharp contrast to his pale skin, Oliver has dark navy-blue hair - mostly short, layered and messy - which seems to run down to end just above his shoulders in the very back. His eyes, a deep golden-yellow, seem to look into your very soul when he looks at you - looking at you as though he knows you, and he knows what you've done, though he really doesn't. Over his Right eye, lays three, thin, long scars that run from his forehead, over the eye and down the cheek - a sign of torment as a child, or perhaps a firm, strict resolution within the man. Atop of this, he wears a rather plain, white eyepatch, though it barely covers the scars, it's unclear as to why he wears it as nobody really knows if he can see out of the eye underneath or not- it's one of the many secrets he holds.
Seeming to have a passion for body art, Oliver has several piercings. With nine in his left ear, five in his right and two eyebrow piercing's over the left brow, he seems almost addicted to such things, what about them is unclear – though it is clear that he has too many. With each piercing being silver in color, it seems to match his mostly monochrome attire.
His clothing, as mentioned before, is mostly black and silver, save for a navy blue jacket that zips up in the front with an off-white furred hood. The shirt underneath is, more or less, a black, sleeveless turtleneck of sorts. There are two zippers, each one starting under the arm and run up to each side of his neck, also silver in color. His pants are also black that zip up the sides at the bottom, a few buckles running around the legs. Each pant leg tucks into a somewhat loose, dark brown boot that also zips up in the front. On his arms, under his jacket, he wears white bandages that wrap up to his biceps– though it’s unclear as to why he wears these, that fall under black, fingerless gloves.

P E R S O N A L I T Y
★ POSITIVE:
- Observant ;; Oliver does his best to keep his eyes on everything he can, his ears hearing every bit of news on those against and with him and his mind on what he wants. He pays strict attention to things around him, including his surroundings - he's not easy to sneak up on, nor is he easy to trick - being quite perceptive.
- Vigorous ;; Not being an easy one to break down physically or mentally, Oliver is quite energetic, for the most part - his intelligence and physique serving him well while greatly reflecting his haughty behavior.
- Clever ;; Skillful, mentally quick and resourceful, there are few things that Oliver finds hard to handle. Whether it be a fight, a person to 'comfort' and pull under his desires for power or pulling an ingenious (in his mind at least, most often being NOWHERE close as such to others) idea out of his ass, he seems to be able to do such on a whim without much thought - even adding a flare of originality.
- Charismatic ;; Whether it be the way he presents himself with his confidence and smooth talking, Oliver seems rather easy to pull together great masses of loyalty - the fact that he was able to create Team Rocket quite an evident factor. His performances, whether it be a speech or a trick, are smooth and well oiled.
- Tenacious ;; Oliver isn't one who's easily beaten down - physically or mentally. He always seems to be able to make a come back. Persistent as all hell, he holds with a firm grip onto his course of actions and opinions, seeing them to the end - firmly resolved.
- Reliable ;; Despite his violent tendencies, Oliver is surprisingly reliable. If he says he'll do something... he'll do it, and in a timely fashion... even if it is taking someone out. Maintaining himself in routine and unexpected circumstances, he always pulls through, even for others... even if it is just to gain their trust for his own ill gain.
★ NEGATIVE:
- Headstrong ;; Oliver doesn't take authority or discipline well, which is a very good reason why he's the one in charge. He doesn't take advice from anyone, nor is he easily swayed. In fact, he's quite wayward - he does what he pleases, when he pleases - following no clear principles but those of his own.
- Impudent ;; Seeming to have NO sense of modesty what so ever, the boy is extremely cocky and seems to have a complete disregard for others - no matter who they are, or if they may prove to be stronger than him or not.
- Audacious ;; With his mindset, there's no room for fear. Instead, he seems to be recklessly bold, his confidence the size of a whale if you were to turn it into something tangible. He makes his choices, more or less, on a whim, and seems heedless of the consequences of his actions. He's never unsure of himself, in fact, he always seems to feel perfect assurance even if he finds himself on inadequate grounds.
- Grim ;; Though he may not always show it, or seems to be able to keep it under check for the most part, Oliver is aggressive in temperament. He's prone to fighting, and even killing - his goal for Team Rocket evident in that fact. If one were to pay careful attention, most of his actions are quite foreboding.
- Dishonest ;; Nothing seems to bother Oliver about his actions, and this includes lying. He'd gladly twist the truth or spew what he knows others wish to hear to gain their trust, if only to use them in the end. Everyone in his life is nothing more than a pawn in his game... but he'd never tell anyone this. This is quite evident when you look at how he tells everyone the opposite than what he really has in store for those who don't join Team Rocket.
- Facetious ;; With his large sense of confidence and ego comes a very wry sense of humor - twisted and perverse. And it tends to show at the worst of times - and often inappropriately - especially when it comes to a murder, which to him, is perhaps one of the more amusing things one can do.
- Insolent ;; To say the least, Oliver is extremely bold - not only in his actions but with his speech as well. He's quite insultingly contemptuous with the way he speaks - expressing deep hatred or disapproval in nearly everything he says when he's not luring someone into his plans. Generally.... he's going to be archaic to you and your ideals.
★ HABITS, QUIRKS:
- He seems to have an affinity for sharp objects, mostly daggers that he can easily conceal.
- His Skin seems to be a little tougher than that of a human, due to his Salamence DNA, though it’s not unbreakable.
- Though Oliver can cook quite well, he seems to have a thing for burning food, whether it be the smell or the simple fact of burning it to a crisp is unknown – though he seems to enjoy forcing the members of team rocket to eat these burned foods with a subtle warning of “eat it or die”.
- After a victory, due to his Salamence DNA whom enjoys blowing flames to the sky, he seems to enjoy burning meats to a crisp, once more forcing the troops of Team Rocket to eat them afterword. Can’t be wasteful now, can we?
★ OVERALL PERSONALITY:
With quite the distinct, strong personality, Oliver makes himself known. He does his best to keep his eyes on everything he can, his ears hearing every bit of news on those against and with him and his mind on what he wants. He pays strict attention to things around him, including his surroundings - he's not easy to sneak up on, nor is he easy to trick - being quite perceptive. Along with not being the easiest to tric, he's also not an easy one to break down physically or mentally, Oliver is quite energetic, for the most part - his intelligence and physique serving him well while greatly reflecting his haughty behavior.

H I S T O R Y
- As a young boy, Oliver lived in the upper class section of Aether with his parents, funded by his father’s paychecks as he worked as an upper scientist for Epispect. With his father spending more time at the lab than at home, he spent more time with his mother, though he loved both his parents equally and showed no distain to his father’s horrible work hours.
- Like most other children, he attended classes, though the majority of his were homeschooled by his mother, who worried that the slum kids would attempt something. She was, due to the constant threats of Epispect to obey and not spill anything to the public and not to steal from them, was an over protective mother, though oliver didn’t seem to mind – he didn’t have many friends to worry about escaping off to.
- At the age of 5, his father came home one day, much earlier than his normal release from work, and his mother knew something was up. After a short conversation between the two, the small family was thrown into a panic at the news he brought home with him… and the item in his pocket – a small vial, labeled top secret. They had to leave.
- That Night, the head of Epispect, along with a few of his goons, cornered the family in the city during their flight from the area. When they ordered the stolen serum to be returned, his father played ‘dumb’, pretending not to know what he was talking about. He wanted the serum to give to his own son, for various reasons, but it was a bad move. With orders to be killed, the spies were immediately on his father, tearing the man apart.
- Oliver was no exception to this order, the head of Epispect setting his Dragonite on him without hesitation. With a roar that echoed through the night, a noise the boy would never forget, the dragon took a slash at him, delivering a painful blow to his face, a blow that would scar the boy forever. Fearing for her son’s life, his mother took the vial from her belongings and shoved it into his hands with an order to run, which he did in the moments before the Dragonite tore through her. He managed to escape, but at what cost?
- Taking the vial, he ran as far as he could, eventually stumbling upon a friend of his father, who was willing to take Oliver in and hide him from Epispect, eventually finding the vial in his possession. Explaining to Oliver just what this was, the boy made a decision. He would find someone who could transfuse him, and he would grow strong.
- With age came plots and ideas…. And a not so subtle thirst for revenge. The stronger Oliver grew, the more he found he desired to tear Epispect apart piece by piece and slaughter the man who killed his family. With a new goal set at heart, Oliver turned to something that fascinated him as a kid… stories of Team Rocket, and built a new group in their image, with plans of giving the name, as well as the people of Aether, new life.
