**Oliver Jonas "Ollie" Queen** (born May 16, 1985)[1] is a former billionaire playboy, turned archer vigilante/superhero of Star City. Lost from society after his family's yacht sank, he made it to the island of Lian Yu, where Oliver went on a mission of survival and self-discovery, learning a great deal of skills. Skills that include, and aren't limited to archery, swordsmanship, hand-hand combat, etc. He traveled to China and Russia, working as an agent of A.R.G.U.S. for some time, a member of the Bratva known as **Kapot**, and the murderous vigilante **Luchnik**/**Kapiushon**. After being presumed dead and lost at sea for five years, Oliver returned home with a mission to save his city from crime and corruption. He began his crusade as an archer who would eventually become known as **The Hood**, who was willing to use lethal force by targeting members on his father's list.

After the Undertaking caused the death of his best friend, Tommy Merlyn, Oliver decided to continued his crusade, renamed as **The Arrow**, while also making a vow to avoid killing whenever possible to honor Tommy's memory. Five months after saving Starling City from the Siege, the Arrow was declared as a hero to the people of Starling City.

Following the death of his ex-girlfriend, Sara Lance, Oliver started to have conflict with Ra's al Ghul, leader of the League of Assassins. Ra's threatened to kill people in Starling if Oliver did not find Sara's killer, forcing Oliver to falsely claim responsibility in order to fight Ra's to the death, where Oliver was vastly outmatched and defeated. However, he survived, which meant by the laws of the League of Assassins, as well as a prophecy, that he must become the next Ra's al Ghul. Oliver's refusal to take the title forced Ra's al Ghul to make Oliver's identity as the Arrow known to the public, which lead to Oliver's protegé, Roy Harper, taking the fall for him. When Ra's al Ghul nearly killed Thea Queen, Oliver finally gave in to the League in order to save his half-sister's life and joined them under the identity of **Al Sah-him** (Arabic: السهم; for Arrow). When Ra's al Ghul planned to have Oliver destroy his home, Starling City, a tradition all becoming the next Ra's al Ghul must commit (an event which would be known as the Outbreak) Oliver, who was seemingly erased from his old life, returned to his team to stop the attack and Ra's al Ghul once and for all. After saving Starling City, Oliver retired from vigilantism and began a new life in Ivy Town with Felicity Smoak.

Five months later, Oliver was called back to Starling City, renamed Star City in honor of the seemingly-dead Ray Palmer, and took up a new code-name, **Green Arrow**, stylized as the "**Emerald Archer**". to continue fighting for the people of his city. Five months after stopping the terrorist organization H.I.V.E., and it's leader Damien Darhk, from completing Genesis, his rallying of Star City as Oliver Queen earn him the full support of the people and soon after was made the mayor.

Five months later, he came into conflict with Adrian Chase, aka Prometheus, a serial killer wanting to avenge his father, Justin Claybourne and destroy Oliver's life. When Chase's team captured Oliver's friends and family, their final confrontation was met on Lian Yu. While Oliver freed everyone, including his illegitimate son, William Clayton, Chase killed himself to detonate bombs placed all over Lian Yu to kill everyone on it.

After what happend on Lian Yu, Oliver decided to raise William, as a promise, he made to the latter's mother; Samantha Clayton, who died on the island. While Oliver struggled with his secret identity as the vigilante being compromised by the FBI, he also had to deal with Cayden James who planned to destroy Star City after believing Oliver killed his son, Owen Post. While defeating James, the victory was short lived. Ricardo Diaz, who manipulated James into attacking Star City, began to take control of Star City's government by using all of James' assets and amass a huge army.

In a desperate effort to take down Diaz and liberate Star City from his control, Oliver turns to the FBI for their help in exchange for turning himself in for his crimes as a vigilante. Although they failed to capture Diaz, the city was taken back and Oliver publicly confessed he was Green Arrow before being sent to Slabside Maximum Security Prison, being identified as **Inmate 4587**.

Six months after imprisonment, Oliver was released after Diaz was captured, later, with the emergence of a new Green Arrow using Oliver's gimmick, Oliver decided to separate himself from the impersonator and continue serving the city by officially using his skills as an officer of the SCPD.
