TRAITS:
Oliver is the kind of guy that will voice his opinion no matter what. Now, he's not going to be the loud annoying guy at a party, but if there's something important he has to say, he will. He's very much in to the rights of the people. He despises the selfish "fat cats" and the like.
He has a charitable and kind heart, not the least bit selfish; he did run a community center for the impoverished. He's got a background as a womanizer, but once he met Dinah Lance, he's been wholly in love with her.
He's the kind of guy that would back up his friends in a tough spot. He'd step in and put a few arrows into anyone who wrongs him or his friends and family.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
HISTORY:
Oliver was born to wealthy parents Robert and Moira Queen in Star City, California. As a young child Oliver idolized his hero Robin Hood and was said to be a natural archer at a young age, frequently practicing with his bow and arrows. He was mildly traumatized the first time he accidentally killed a helpless animal, but when his mother and father were mauled by lions in a tragic safari accident his hesitation to shoot cost them their lives.
Afterwards he was raised by his mentor and eventually inherited the family fortune and business. Oliver grew into a rich, thrill-seeking, and drunken playboy with no real sense of responsibility or direction in his life. Everything changed when he fell off his boat in the middle of the ocean and washed ashore on the remote isolated Starfish Island, clutching a bow, a memento from a Robin Hood movie which he had used to keep himself afloat, where he was completely stranded.
During this time spent without food or shelter Oliver developed his skills as a hunter to survive and gained mastery over his bow. Having previously taken everything in his life for granted, this experience taught him self-reliance and made him into a strong-willed man. His second test of new character was the discovery of drug smugglers on the island ran by some ruthless international crime lord. Using his new skills, he attacked and destroyed their heroin operation, then delivered them to the authorities before returning home. Realizing that he had found his destiny, he chose to use his abilities and resources as a crime-fighter.
With a nickname coined by the press dubbing him "Green Arrow", he made it his mission to protect Star City. He took his cue from Batman and built his own "Arrow Cave," complete with an "Arrow Car". It is till then that he joined the Justice League to help them fight crimes and invasions.

RP SAMPLE:
It was all over the news, the return of Oliver Queen, stranded for two months on a deserted island and then rescued, together with the criminals that the authority had finally gotten their hands on. Lucky, the press said, that the millionaire playboy was able to return alive from his little fateful forced vacation. The tabloids speculated whether the young man would be able to retake the control of Queen Industries or if his mind was too weakened from the incident.
Weakened? If at all, Oliver had returned from it a much better man. Bitter, yes, but that bitterness would never leave him. It had been engraved and branded onto him with every single thing that happened in his life. His parents and he couldn't save them. He couldn't shoot the lions, if he had, they'd still be there. But he hesitated. Then heading into a life of alcohol, with no set direction in his life, no goals, no plans. He began studying so he could become the businessman his father wanted him to become. Years later, and he had already shown the first signs of his transformation. Yet there was still something that seemed to be missing.
He walked down the streets at night, as he often did since he came back from his unwanted exile. Bow and quiver always with him as they were almost an extension of his body. Then he heard cries in an alley. The muffle sounds of a woman being held against her will. Tilting his head to the side, Oliver didn't seem to think twice. He simply rushed towards the direction of the sound, witnessing three men holding a woman against the wall, against her will, her screams held back by a hand that was covering her mouth.
"Be very still, honey, and we'll be done with you quickly. Very quickly. It won't even hurt."
"So what do you say, boys? One at a time. You toss a coin to see who goes first."
"No, I found her. I go first. There's no arguing that."
"There's no arguing this either." Oliver's voice came from where he was standing, and soon after, one of his arrows followed, aiming straight to one of the men's back. "It's one of the laws in life. Some things cannot be argued. An arrow hurts, badly. Can't argue that."
He cocked two arrows next, aiming for the two remaining men, one hitting one of them in the shoulder, the other missing as the offender moved away. But Oliver was no longer the young man that was guilty over the death of a puppy. Another arrow struck the fleeing man in the knee, knocking him to the ground. One thing was clear, he was not aiming to kill. "Can't flee now. Better just pin you to the ground." He kicked the man onto his back, then rushed towards the woman. "Go, call the police. I'll hold them back."
She nodded, and simply rushed as fast as she could. But before she left, she turned back to face Oliver, a smile on her lips. "Thank you. For saving my life."
Those words.
“Thank you for saving my life.”
Oliver looked to his bow and hands as he heard the police cars approaching. He never realized that those words would have meant... so much. The green vest that he was wearing was the only thing the woman had seen in the darkness of the alley. But he didn't want to stay. Staying would mean having complications with the Star City Police, and considering his famous name in town, and his family, and his wealth... that would be highly complicated.
So he fled.
Oliver didn't care hearing whatever the woman was saying. A smile on his lips, he simply retreated into the night. Maybe this was what he was meant to do all along. Maybe he had found his calling. Maybe...
...He wouldn't have to hesitate anymore.
