The general idea is nailed down, details are flexible.

The 'o' in Hozz. Youngest of the four brothers, Oswald has a certain playful eldritch air about him.

Mortal Traits

Personality: Relaxed

Occupation: College student

Likes: computer games, dancing, food in general, spazing out, and doing stuff with his brothers.

Dislikes: Getting out of bed, people being treated unfairly

Fay Traits

Breaker of the fourth wall

Warps space and language


Because Oswald was born on Earth his powers have been active since birth. Oswald bends space, chance, and reality in general. This has two main effects. First and most obvious, Oswald can do things without much explanation, like looting dragons for World of Warcraft into real life or installing magical portals. Although Oswald finds nothing strange about his own actions and CAN never do it intentionally. Second, what people want happens with more frequency when Oswald is around: Hugh finds a clue, Zack bumps into his friend, Ziggy finds a dollar, or everyone looks out the window so the evil ninja can escape. Although the effects should be very subtle. Oswald effects people close in either distance or time. so if we could graph distance and time on a flat plane, then Oswald would effect people in a circle. even people who are about to but have not yet met him are effected.

Oswald's fay nature and powers are never directly revealed to the audience.

Story Hooks

Oswald installs the front door into the Brothers appartment which inadvertently links them to the House of HOZZ.
