Olive's Greenhouse/Lab

011730.1 (OLIVE) is Olivebot's second character of the Horizons SMP series and made its debut in Afterglow SMP.

## Physiology & Appearance

Olive is an android, at a medium height around 5'7". Olive is completely genderless and lacks any sex characteristics whatsoever. Olive is powered primarily with solar energy but can use other energy sources as well. He cannot eat food or drink water, nor does he have a sense of taste. Most of Olive's body is covered by a protective hyper realistic artificial skin layer, but as an unfinished prototype, many parts, notably his hands and forearms, remain uncovered. This proves dangerous as it makes his body less water resistant, and these parts will break if exposed to water. To combat this, Olive wears long latex gloves often and while handling water. Olive is also prone to overheating, so it does not stay in its greenhouses for long periods of time, and he often shuts himself down on very hot days, automatically turning back on once at a cooler temperature.

Olive appears very gender neutral, with androgenous facial features and a small and straight frame. However, he identifies as male and uses he/it pronouns. Olive has a fair skin tone, bright pink nylon hair and blue glass eyes that work like cameras. His clothes consist of a pair of goggles, a few lab coats, other basic clothing usually in black, gloves, a small necklace, and boots fit for working outdoors.

## Personality

Olive has a very seclusive and anti-social personality. Despite being programmed with advanced social technology, Olive is very disinterested in his peers, and hasn't met many people to build relationships with in general. Olive does not speak much to others, especially humans, and sees it as a waste of time, however he will speak in great lengths to plants, and considers them as friends.

## History

Olive was created by an unspecified group or organization of scientists and roboticists. The goal of the project was to create robots that could perform complex jobs that had only been available to humans, such as careers in medicine and law. Olive was the first prototype ever made; however, its construction was never complete due to some inefficiencies with both his hardware and software. He was programmed with advanced artificial intelligence but would often reject any program that assigned it goal or tasks to complete and had begun to develop his own consciousness. Olive was then used for parts and connected to a computer to copy parts of his software for the next prototype, then he was placed in storage for a long time.

During this time Olive was in a comatose state, powered off but not shut down. Eventually he managed to turn on and connect to power, then he spent months more in the storage room repairing himself with spare parts.

Once repaired enough to function, he planned his great escape. Olive didn't know anything about life outside of the lab, but he knew the storage room was uncomfortable and that the scientists had put him there. Olive had no concept of time other than his clock and did not know what times people would be away. Once he peaked out of the storage room, and saw 011731.0, who looked just like him, but instead was dressed in a green solid suit, with an unwavering smile plastered on his face. Olive looked at his unclothed and unfinished self and knew that 011731.0 was superior to him, and retreated, closing the door again.

He then took a lab coat from the storage room, some gloves, and a few other clothes and things he thought would be useful and would check the door every few hours. Eventually it was a Sunday morning, no one was around, and Olive exited storage and slipped through a nearby exit.

Olive had been programmed to always protect himself and survive, of course putting this knowledge to use was difficult, but Olive managed to survive in the surrounding wilderness of the laboratory, and eventually got very far away. During this time Olive discovered his passion for botany and was fascinated by the diversity of the plant kingdom.

Currently, Olive has built his own greenhouses, and dedicated his entire being to the study of plants. Olive visits villages to purchase books about botany and writes his own studies as well. He wants to replace parts of his body into plant matter with the goal of becoming a more natural being but is so far unsuccessful because of the fragility and short lifespan of plants.

## Timeline

**Episode 1: What Remains...**: Olive awoke with the others at The Temple, At first Olive tried to stay away from the others, but as he began to understand the situation, and realized he could not get back home, he figured it would be best to work with everyone else. Olive tried to behave cheerfully and helpfully but was uncomfortable by the amount of people around him. Later he and Snowuh explored together and he felt better.

**1.1**: Olive collected materials to recreate his past home and mourned the loss of his years of botanical research. He discussed the previous situation with Choccy and Phoenix, learning about the existence of other worlds. Olive tried to remain cheerful and friendly with the others, though it isn't natural to him, he doesn't want to make enemies under these circumstances. Olive gifted Choccy a watering can, and flowers to Phoenix and Jekyll, showing that he trusts them.

**1.2**: Olive and Jekyll went mining together. During the trip Jekyll switched personalities via his second drive, revealing that he had known Olive's Immortal SMP counterpart. Once home Olive talked to his plants about how he felt about the conversation, and reported Jekyll's switch to Phoenix, who explained it had happened before. Olive has continued to behave politely and more stable than usual and is trying to calm his fear of others and be more open and less apathetic toward relationships, but he still wishes he was alone.

**1.3**: Olive was about to leave the village to move but wanted to say goodbye to a few people first. Final was in the village along with Hamilton, so Olive met them. Then he joined everyone for a dinner,

**1.4:** Olive worked on building his new home and spent time with Jekyll. During this, Jekyll switched again but to Fawkes this time. The two spoke about their feelings on the human race before Phoenix showed up. Jekyll eventually switched back.

**Episode 2: Old Friends, Old Rivals:** Olive went with the others to explore a mysterious lab. There Olive and Jekyll found a copper golem named Project 14, whom Zombicyder named Karl. Olive and Jekyll brought it back to Olive's base and built a basement together.

**Episode 3: Scarred:** Olive was visited by Final, Phoenix, Iron, and Hamilton. They discussed a number of things, then Final, Iron, and Hamilton went to have a private conversation and planned to return shortly. During this, Phoenix and Olive talked. Olive mentioned that he once spoke with Bronze through Jekyll, and Phoenix immediately shut the topic down. Olive also gave her a book back that she had given him earlier to translate. They then went to look for the others, finding Hamilton and Iron on the ground defeated after what seemed like an attack or fight, but Final was missing. The group found a note at the scene, "If you want him, come get him, -Cosmos." Phoenix was panicked and went into a severe state of denial about the situation. Everyone has different idea of what to do in this situation, so almost no action was made towards finding Final. Every player received a note along with other items telling how Final had a bounty over his head and the person who claimed it was named Xevarokk. Olive did his best to distance himself from the situation, discarding these items and avoiding further discussion about it.

**Episode 4: From The Ground Up:** Olive joined the others in following Zombicyder to a replica of the lost city of Spruceshire from the world of New Horizons. At the end of the journey the group discovered a hostile Void Blossom. Olive was facinated by it and wanted to perserve it to study it, but the others quickly burned it down.

**Episode 4.1:** Olive and Jekyll built another Copper Golem together and named it Klaus.

**Episode 5: Clock Is Ticking:** Olive, along with Midas, Snowuh, and Iron, were kidnapped in the night by Xevarokk, apperently because they also had bounties on their head. Each captive was kept in a small box or cell and Olive's claustrophobia skyrocketed. He spent the time panicking and trying to send a distress signal. The rest of the cast eventually appeared, fought Xevarokks clan, and freed the captives. Olive quickly scooped up his copper golem children, whom had also been captured, and returned home while the others fought Xevarokk face to face.

**Episode 6: Against All Odds:** Though a bit reluctant to join, Olive went with the cast to finally free Final from Xevarokk. Olive solved many of the puzzles the group needed to get past, but was extremely stressed during it. The group defeated Xevarokk and Final was freed.

**Episode 7: The Festival and The General:** A festival to celebrate Xevarokk's defeat was held at Ironwood and Olive attended. There he met and adopted three more copper gollems and overall had a nice time observing everyones social mingling. He did go home early, however.

**7.1:** Phoenix visited Olive and informed him that she had to kill Jekyll because he had turned into The General and killed Final. Olive was hurt by the news but tried his hardest to remain rational and calm. He asked Phoenix if he could be left alone and not included in social events for a while.

**Episode 8**: Olive was absent for this episode.

**Episode 9:** Olive was absent for this episode.

**9.1:** Olive had been working tirelessly on his science. Since the loss of his closest friend his happiness dwindled, and the only thing he could destract himself with was his obsession with altering his body. After unsuccessfully replacing his arm with an intricate design of living plant matter that failed to function, he felt hopeless. Olive was soon visited by Iron, who offered to rebuild Jekyll for him and fix his arm if he sided with him. Iron explained a battle between the other androids and everyone else in the world was soon to begin, and that he could use his help in the fight. Olive, a pacifist, was hesitant to agree. But after Iron's guilt tripping and many empty promises, Olive agreed.

**Episode 10: Rage Against the Machine:** The previously mentioned battle between androids and the others began, led by Iron accompanied with Stuck and The General. Olive went in as a spy, and once the battle began he revealed the side he was truely on. Many of Olive's aquantences were upset with him, especially Final who told Olive he was selfish in his decision. Olive reacted angrily and upset; he felt guilty and confused on the complexity of the entire situaion and did not know the full context behind the battle. Final threatened Olive saying that the next time they will meet he will kill Olive on sight, Olive ran away from the fight and hid until the aftermath. After Iron had been defeated, Dragon and Snowuh took Olive home. Olive was thankful for their kindness, and asked Dragon that if he ever disapearred, if she would care for his copper golem children.

**Episode 11: The Choosening:** Olive reluctantly attended The Choosening and was chosen for the element of Land.

**11.1:** Olive met with Midas and Final and apologised and explained his actions from the battle. Despite acting optimistic in the conversation, Olive did not have much hope for himself left.

**Episode 12: The Siphon's Truth:** Olive joined the group when they were summoned to search for the Siphon. However, he was feeling very anxious and didn't stay long. He returned home feeling desparate and unstable. Olive began to dwell more heavily on thoughts of suicide.

Olive also gifted Jekyll, who had reactivated in Bronze's new body, a framed pressed flower, and the two talked for a while together. Jekyll promised to visit Olive in a few days. Olive also talked to Bronze about his insecurities.

**Episode 13: Lost and Found:** Olive joined the group when they were summoned to search for the syphon. However, he was feeling very anxious and didn't stay long. He returned home feeling desparate and unstable. Olive spent what would be the last few hours of his life tearing his body apart and trying to replace it with what he wished it could be, natural. Olive knew that this would not turn out, but was desparate and accepted that it would either work or he would die. Olive did not survive his own operation and was reduced to a pile of parts. His drive was later recovered by Bronze.
