Ols is a player on the Freedom server, presently the Doge of the village of Nyrada.
Ols started in August of 2008 on the Jenn-Kellon Home server, at the recommendation of his friend Johnny. Traveling to his home on the beach below Silent Hill, he learned the basics with the help of Uranoz and Jein, and ran errands to Newtown and back. Returning after a week's break, he found Uranoz had moved to Mol-Rehan, Jein had gone inactive, and Johnny was nowhere to be found. He traveled to Overkill's village Common Denominator at the request of Verlix, who promised to build a Corbita with him, and braved dangers in his trek across the map. Having arrived in Common Denominator, he was granted a house and membership and worked in the mine Overkill made when he was not felling trees for Cog parts.
Weeks passed, and one say he was asked to bring lead to the site of a village in the making, known as New Rotterdam. Finding that the Mayor once knew him on the online game Puzzle Pirates, he decided to settle there and learn terraforming. However, the site was abandoned days later after the deed failed to materialise and he ended up staying with his friend Uranoz while he was mostly inactive. Many months later, he received an e-mail detailing the demise of Jenn-Kellon, and he decided to start afresh on Freedom. After scavenging in towns such as Small Bears and Silent Hill, he stepped boldly into the portal and found himself in Samling.
Speaking in Freedom chat for the first time, he was surprised to be contacted by Elwood, Uranoz and Johnny, each offering a place in a community. He went to Uranoz's place, but managed to get killed once, and then found a barely terraformed spot, so he impatiently decided to return to Samling and wait for Johnny to arrive so they could build a home. His first home, on the highway south-east of Aegis was a quick solution to homelessness, and despite having a deep mine which he allowed the public to use, he achieved very little there, so he decided to leave the area on Johnny's Cog on a Freedom circumnavigation they had planned.
The voyage lasted a few days, but in the central lake he and Johnny stumbled upon the decaying village of Daevon, which they bought from the Mayor for 10s. They, Metson and Morten worked to make a successful village there, and despite establishing ties with Ginsu, they were hampered by the unwanted fences on deed and Johnny's erratic playtimes. Ultimately, the deed was passed to Ols, and with no activity in the village was disbanded to allow Morten to homestead there.
Ols, having offended every nearby settlement through his erratic terraforming, decided to do something else, and lazed around on the Halcyon tundra for a few weeks of inactivity, before participating in the millennium impalong's construction. Looking for lands to build his dream home on, he sailed to Ironizedphoenix's home on the eastern coast, but disliked the rock layer and decided to homestead near the Impalong's site. He sailed back and terraformed the site to accommodate his 11x11 deed and to have an assortment of farms and roads, and resided there until the construction of his island home, Higurashi.
After several months of on and off work around the area, the Freedom Christmas Impalong occurred, wherein Ols was fairly bored and had little to do on Freedom. After some encouragement from his friend Marley, the new character of Verlix, he decided to travel to Wild and make a new life for himself there. Residing at Mithril Hall doing on and off grinding he came back into contact with Johnny and asked him to return and travel to Wild. With Johnny's friends Tomahawk and Jonesy, they traveled to a new location, where they lived in frequent contact with Mithril Hall, but later were forced to return due to JK attack and threats to the main area of Mol-Rehan. Ols was asked to work in House of Mol-Rehan where he stayed for a month before going inactive to play other games.
Ols returned a month and a half later, and decided to return to Freedom and improve himself there. He first resolved to improve Higurashi, but shortly thereafter disbanded and demolished it due to poor potential for expansion, resolving instead to createNyrada, a Size 22 island deed based on Venice. The deed did well, the terraforming being completed in a month and a large community building up, but various disputes lead to the decay of villager harmony and resulted in many of the villagers leaving, leading to a loss of momentum in the village. The village was mostly complete, but the remaining development continued at a snail's pace and the resolution to work also on a desert was ultimately a disaster for Nyrada, bringing work to a complete halt by Autumn. Ols returned to Wild for a few days, hoping to take a fresh perspective, but the commitments to Nyrada he held and the disappointment he felt in the progression of Mol-Rehan lead him to return in a few days, shortly after the implementation of free two-way travel between servers. Suffering from intense burnout from his work at Nyrada and unwilling to continue with no village activity, he quit for several months to rekindle his commitment to Wurm at a later date.
Ols returned in late December, and again attempted to build a village up from the new free players on Freedom, but the lack of any ties to Wurm effectively meant that none remained after a few days. The lack of direction or meaning to Nyrada and complete apathy to it from others means that little can be done to continue it to a useful standard, and the present intention is to disband it to facilitate a move to Wild, pre-emptive to a more permanent move to the upcoming Epic server.
