Powers / Abilities
Archery - Green Arrow is proclaimed by many to be the greatest archer in the DC universe, having trained many students who have sought his knowledge and technique. Oliver stuck to the bow and can out draw and match some of the world's greatest assassins like Deathstroke and Deadshot.
Predatory Instinct - Green Arrow would consider himself an animal or weapon of justice and his prey are those who are unjust. Training himself in the methods of tracking, stalking, and pursuit, he is very much a predator within whatever environment he is in. His instincts are often his most powerful ability, allowing him to survive impressive situations where most humans would likely die.
Hanbo Martial Arts - A trained combatant with Hanbo by Slade Wilson and Shado, Green Arrow is capable of dual wielding hanbo sticks and fighting on an expert level.
Swordsmanship - Green Arrow has trained to use swords out of necessity to survive and to combat assassins who utilize such weapons in close quarter combat. Though he is no master, he is advanced and capable of holding his own against five assassins at one time.
Precision Hand-eye Coordination - Green Arrow is not just accurate with bow and arrows, but exceptionally accurate with anything that requires hand-eye precision such as throwing darts, horse-shoes, bolas, javelins, or bowling balls.
Interrogation - Green Arrow is a capable negotiator and specialist in torture. Green Arrow is familiar enough with psychology and personalities that he can utilize the right leverage to break someone during interrogation.
Guerrilla Warfare - Stranded for 3 years on Lian Yu he learned how to survive against intruders, smugglers, wild animals, and understands how to strike without being spotted or giving away his location. He understands the value of utilize the environment to his advantage and use his enemies superior numbers against them.
Weaknesses
Arrogance - Green Arrow is an arrogant son of a bitch. He prioritizes his mission and his concerns over that of others and values them as more important than anyone else's concerns, which is a bit ironic considering the next weakness.
Compassion - Oliver Queen is a compassionate person that often lets his heart lead him to a course of action while his mind calculates how he will execute the plan. Green Arrow often finds himself making enemies and bad decisions because of his compassion. In some scenarios he will allow criminals to walk free if it would mean sparing an innocent person from death.
Short-sighted - Another ironic characteristic about Oliver Queen is his inability to see his opponents next few moves ahead of time, unable to predict those criminals who are truly masterminds, Oliver often finds himself running in circles trying to figure out their endgame.

Audition post
"You can tell a lot about a person just by looking at them..." His comrade spoke with a curious and hardly amused statement.
"I don't think anyone has the right to judg--" Was all he could think of as a reasonable response.
"--Not judgment. Wisdom. Take you for example, Kid. You're rich AND spoiled, no doubt." His comrade's words were sharp and cut like the machete on the man's back. "Never spent a day of your life away from your parents protection. Out here, in the frontier you wouldn't know how to survive in any ordinary situation."
"You're wrong about me." He protested with a form of resignation one could only possess after having the love of their life die in their arms. To watch as their only child dies at the feeble age of 6 or 8 years old. The feeling you could only know when your parents, the person you've known the longest in your life is suddenly butchered before your eyes. Oliver Queen felt that death was the reward he deserved.
"Am I? You have a trust fund back home. If I were to guarantee you a way off this island, you would offer a substantial reward for my effort and still have plenty to continue an existence of reckless partying with booze and women until you settle into a sedentary life. You have NO aspirations. NO will. NO need for survival in your world." The man grew harsher with his words, his cold blue gaze stared down Oliver without remorse, without sign of letting go. The man was a churning forge of heat whose purpose was to make Oliver Queen into a useful weapon or cut off the biggest risk to the group's survival.
"I..." Oliver's lip quivered as his empty gaze stared towards Slade's blue eyes. "...saw my father get mauled to death by a lion...Slade, what do you want me to say? I-...I-I-..."
Slade leaned into Oliver's face and growled. "Better him than me. But if you'd prefer, I think the lion did the man a service; at least he doesn't have to watch you in this pathetic state. I envy your father for that fact alone. The fact is Mister Queen the lion will hunt; do you want to be its prey or will you survive?"
Oliver thought about his mother, his sister, his best friend...What would he tell them? He failed to protect their father from the lion? That when it came time to shoot, Oliver hesitated because he didn't want to hurt the animal. Oliver might as well shoot his own father! He thought about Robin Hood and what trials that man must've faced in a darker hour and under oppressive regime. The man had to make decisions and even when they weren't popular and even when it would come at a great sacrifice to all those who conspired with him. Oliver's misty eyes stared into Slade's cold gaze. "I don't want to die..." Oliver sniffled and forced his expression to harden while clearing his throat. "I want to live..."
Slade's gaze would scale up Oliver's face from his chin to his forehead. "If you want to live, you must be prepared to die. Whatever motivates you to do that, I suggest you put it on the wall to remind you of what you're fighting for. What skills do you have?"
"I've always envied Robin Hood for his strength...His charisma. I'd taken archery classes but out here, this is nothing like the training course I had. Too many trees, I don't have any arrows...Just my bow." Oliver spoke with a hopelessness to him.
"Do you know what drove Robin Hood, kid? The taste of despair and desperation...Two things you are feeling right now in your beating heart. Examine your surroundings again."
Oliver would look to the trees and the brush as Slade spoke (What did Robin Hood make his arrows from?) "Wood." (How do you control airspeed and direction?) "With feathers. I can't catch a bird, Slade..." (Limited thinking. Camouflage yourself with the environment. What do you see?) "Nothing but...Green leaves and grass." (Put on a mask and become something else.) "Become someone else." (A predator in his jungle.) "This is my Sherwood forest."
"Don't get lost in a fairytale, kid. You will die here, its up to you to decide how long until that day comes. Lets get to work." were Slade's last words before leaving the scene with Oliver staring out into the trees. His hand clenching his bow by the grip with a firm squeeze before squaring his chin and following behind Slade. "Are you sure you don't want to be Little John?" (I'll try not to enjoy our next lesson; combat training.)
