He is also a member of the **Dearden Family**, the **Queen Family** and the **Smoak Family** (by marriage). He is also a relative of the **House of al Ghul** and the **Dearden Family** and the **Adachi Family**.

## Early History

Oliver Queen was born May 16th, 1985, few days after his ex-wife Nyssa al Ghul. He was Robert and Moira Queen's only son and biological child together. Unbeknownst to Oliver, his father Robert had multiple affairs. One of these affairs was with a woman named Kazumi Adachi and resulted in the birth of Robert and Kazumi's only daughter, Emiko Queen. However, Queen abandoned Emiko and her mother in favor of staying loyal to his wife and son. Later regretting his decision to cut Emiko and her mother couldn't, Robert made arrangements for his former mistress and his daughter to be provided for. However, Moira made sure Emiko and her mother were never taken care of, like Robert wanted,

In 1995, Oliver was blessed with a sister, Thea, who was born in an illegitimate affair between Moira Queen and her and Robert's family friend, Malcolm Merlyn, who grew lonely after his wife Rebecca's murder. Unknown to them both, Robert always knew that Thea wasn't his biological daughter. However, he stayed with the family after learning Thea fell off her house and broke her arm abandoning his plans of running away with Isabel Rochev.

## Personality

Oliver Queen used to be a billionaire/play boy who never followed the rules except his own. During his time as a "spoiled rich brat", Oliver was reckless and irresponsible. Because of this, some of his friends'parents, such as Laurel's father Quentin Lance considered him to be a troublemaker. He was also temperamental and always hated it when paparazzi dug into his personal life. While he was loved and spoiled by Robert and Moira, Oliver still craved for Quentin's approval, probably referring to his underlying problem of not having a proper father figure in his life. According to post-Island Oliver, his parents would let him get away with murder. Additionally, with his hot temper, Oliver once punched a paparazzi in the face with his own camera.

Despite his childish antics, the one thing Oliver cared about was his family, especially his sister, Thea Queen. Coming from an unimaginably wealthy and privileged family, he came to act and think as though he was incapable of having any problems. He was also a womanizer who slept with his then girlfriend Laurel Lance's younger sister, Sara and their classmate, Sam Clayton. Regrettably, Oliver got the the latter, Samantha, pregnant and he was devastated but relieved when Samantha told him she lost the baby. However, when Oliver was an adult, he was repulsed by Moira's actions of paying off Samantha $2 million, depriving him of his own child.

He was selfish, reckless, light-hearted, cheerful, carefree, laid-back and fun-loving, traits he shared with his best friend, Tommy Merlyn.

As an adult however, Oliver changed into a more mature and darker persona. Despite his time as a visitor, Oliver feigned his former "Playboy" attitude so no one would suspect he was the vigilante the Arrow. He became secluded and distant, mostly hurt that he had to lie to his own family, especially Moira, Laurel and Thea. However, when they found out Oliver was the Arrow, Moira, Thea and Laurel were the most supportive. When Felicity found out Oliver was the Arrow, she was not surprised because every ridiculous task and lie he came up with made everything so much clearer.

Unfortunately when Talia al Ghul and Adrian Chase captured Oliver, he admitted, Uber pressure that he enjoys killing, much to his own disgust. Whenever someone was wronged in the city, including His family and friends, Oliver's vengeance was much clearer. After Damien Darhk murdered Laurel Lance, Oliver swore revenge.

He also proved to be a selfless person and caring mentor, as Roy Harper felt grateful towards Oliver when he saved him from "The Savior" a year prior to him becoming Arsenal. Oliver's selfless actions helped inspire many superheroes, including Barry Allen, Kara Zor-El, Sara Lance. In addition to this, Oliver saved the entire multiverse even though it meant his own death. His legacy was a happy one, as many honored offers sacrifice, including the president of the United States at the creation of the multiverse.

While possessing the power of the Spectre, Oliver gained a new sense of knowledge about concepts such as the multiverse and the Speed Force. However, Oliver still knew some things like his friendship to Barry Allen. He also began speaking in a way similar to Mar Novu. After his sacrifice, Oliver became much more comfortable with his role as the protector of the multiverse.

## Etymology

* **Oliver:** The name Oliver comes from Old Norse meaning “ancestor's descendants.” It also stems from the Latin and French words for “olive” or “olive tree”, respectively, which is used to symbolize peace. Fittingly enough, Oliver came back to Starling City to get rid of crime in the city and he later brought "peace" to his city because by 2040, the place had been saved.
* **Jonas:** Jonas is a boy's name of Hebrew origin. A variant of Jonah—the Hebrew and Muslim prophet and titular character who is swallowed by a whale in "The Book of Jonah" Jonas means “dove” and “gift from God.” Fittingly enough Oliver becomes theSpectre, a being chosen by the Presence in the series.
* **Queen:** Queen is a given name and surname. In some cases it originated as a shortening of the surname MacQueen. In other cases it was the nickname of an ancestor that later became the family's surname. It fits Oliver because he comes from a family of high society billionaires and they "rule" Star City with their wealth and power.
* When Oliver was a vigilante and serial killer, the media called him "The Hood" and "The Vigilante."
* **Arrow:** Quentin Lance was the one who coined the alias "The Arrow" after growing tired of calling him "The Hood" and the Vigilante.
* **Green Arrow:** After faking the Arrow's death, Oliver became known as the Green Arrow to inspire hope to his hometown.
* **The Spectre:** During the Crisis, he was known as The Spectre, and died saving the multiverse as a hero.
