Oliver

Oliver  is a minor character in The Angel in the Forest.

Appearance
Oliver is an adult bat, with light brown fur.

History
Oliver was born into a family of four. His mother, Grace, his father, Mardoqueo, and older brother, Montimer were a happy family for a while, But then, one day, a tragic accident involving Grace's death and Oliver's disappearance ended that. It is unknown what happened to Oliver, but he was never found again.

17+ years later, Oliver is living in what appears to be the inside of a tree with a strange rat he calls "Grandpa." But the rat calls him Hunter instead of Oliver.

As the years pass by, Oliver is no longer living in the tree with the rat, and instead is living in the human house shelter. He lives there for a few more years, where he's considered an alpha there. But has to be put away, just like all the other bats, since prey are the dominant species in this house.

One day, Oliver is hunting for prey in the house. He lands on a mouse, and just as he's getting ready to kill it, Montimer jumps in and slashes his cheek with his claws. Oliver is barely fazed by this and immediately attacks Montimer, forgetting about his prey.

After a while of flying and fighting each other, Oliver eventually lands the final blow by putting Montimer in an arm lock midair and landing on top of him as they hit the ground. This, and all the other major cuts, injure Montimer almost fatally.

Just when it almost seems over, Oliver is furious by the fact that a bat is wearing mice clothes, and proceeds to bite into Montimer's neck to kill him so he can eat him. But then, Oliver get's a vision of his mother, Grace, telling him not to bite his brother. Oliver, confused, gets up from Montimer's unconscious body, and flies away.

A few days later, the bats and wolves conspire with each other to attack and kill all the prey. It's unknown if Oliver was apart of this attack, but he was definitely a victim of it. When the wolves decided to betray the bats, Oliver hides in his shelter within the walls. But other alpha bats decided to take over his shelter. Not having it, Oliver fights back, but is badly beaten by the bats to the point of unconsciousness.

He met a nice loving lady named Ronnie when he was 20 years old. He and Ronnie have been dating for a while.

Trivia
In Oliver's debut, Chapter 24, the title of the chapter is "Real Stockholm Syndrome." This seems to imply that the rat Oliver was living with may have kidnapped him, and that's why he was never found.
