This post is here for two reasons, one relating to the simple fact that Oliver here has a certain way of affecting technology and the other relating to his caretaker personality.

Machines, for those unaware, have a habit of fritzing out a bit around him, which means that Oliver's communicator is going to be pretty unreliable and any other machinery nearby might also have some issues. So, for your convenience and mine, please leave a comment here if
A. You would like your character to witness one of those smaller, less public instances of Oliver's communicator turning itself on and off without his knowledge. On top of mundane tasks and conversations, it's also likely to catch him pacing the attic and/or monologuing, so I am totally up to plotting out some fun with that.

B. Does your character have any form of technology/machinery on their person (aside from their communicator) that they were allowed to keep and that Oliver might noticeably affect? This could be as simple as a watch stopping or going backwards or whatever, which would pretty well signal that something weird is going on around this guy, or as major as, say, Tony Stark not being able to interact with Oliver in person because Ollie's presence causes a heart murmur.

Another matter is that Oliver canonically makes a habit out of caring for other people more thoroughly than he cares for himself, which might mean risking his life for someone else, giving someone else a share of his rations, pretending his own problems aren't as bad as they are so that someone else's are tended ahead of his, etc. However, he's also highly empathetic and has a preternatural sense of character, so don't make the mistake of thinking he's an easy person to take advantage of. The important thing is
C. What sort of surface personality does your character exhibit and, if this is just a front, do they have any sort of tells that might indicate that fact? Are they essential a good person or are their motives generally a bit shady?

D. If your character needed help, how willing would they be to admit it or accept it?

E. Is there anything else about your character that you feel like I need to know?

I have a huge tension headache, so this post may change once I can think a bit better but there you go.
