Olivier's powers and abilities
Master of Tactics: Olivier has an almost supernatural ability to outthink his enemies. He can predict their moves with surgical precision and always stays one step ahead. This power is less about raw intellect and more about his ability to anticipate every possible outcome in any given situation. His mind works like a supercomputer, calculating probabilities, risks, and rewards in mere seconds.
Psychological Warfare: Olivier excels at manipulating others’ emotions, creating fear, doubt, and confusion. His tactics involve exploiting weaknesses in his opponents’ psychological profiles, sometimes causing them to make critical mistakes or question their own motives.
Cyber Mastery: Olivier is an unparalleled hacker and technologist. He can infiltrate secure networks, disable systems, and manipulate digital infrastructures at will. His extensive knowledge allows him to hack into government databases, financial institutions, and even his rival Filip’s weapons systems. He can launch cyberattacks that disable cities or manipulate public perception through false digital narratives.
AI Control: Olivier has built and controls several advanced AI systems designed to predict stock markets, detect vulnerabilities in his enemies’ systems, and execute covert operations. He can leverage this AI to control vast networks, spy on enemies, and turn entire industries against his rivals.
Weaponized Software: Olivier uses weaponized software tools to sabotage digital devices, including remote-controlling missiles and drones to strike his targets. He can also launch denial-of-service attacks (DDoS) that disrupt communications and data systems, rendering competitors’ operations chaotic and inefficient.
Financial Domination: Olivier can manipulate the global financial system, using insider trading, market crashes, and currency manipulation to bankrupt his enemies or disrupt economies. This ability extends to controlling entire sectors like insurance, tech, and defense by holding key financial interests that dictate the actions of governments and corporations.
Weaponized Technology: He has access to a private arsenal of state-of-the-art military technology, including drones, rockets, EMP devices, and even controlled satellites for precision strikes. Through his connections, he can hire mercenaries and control vast amounts of weaponry for strategic purposes, making him a literal and figurative force to be reckoned with.
Expert in Combat Strategy: While not physically imposing, Olivier’s extensive knowledge of military strategy and advanced combat techniques makes him a deadly opponent in direct conflict. He has trained in close-quarter combat and weapons handling, though he prefers to delegate physical confrontations to his hired mercenaries. When necessary, he uses his own combat prowess to disable rivals or escape dangerous situations.
Combat Leadership: Olivier can command his private army with unparalleled precision. His tactical decisions in battle are often perfect, as he anticipates every move from his enemies and manipulates his forces to strike with maximum efficiency. Whether it's a cyber-assault or a physical confrontation, his ability to lead troops in combat is formidable.
Charismatic Manipulator: Olivier’s greatest weapon is his ability to charm and manipulate people, making them bend to his will. Whether it's persuading a CEO to sell their company to him or manipulating public opinion to tarnish his enemy’s reputation, Olivier’s charisma is a tool of mass control.
Network of Influence: Olivier has built an intricate network of global power players, from politicians to CEOs, who are loyal to him either through fear, greed, or manipulation. This network gives him unparalleled influence over global decisions, allowing him to cripple Filip’s operations by calling in favors, shifting alliances, and leveraging his assets for power.
Heightened Senses: While not superhuman, Olivier has a sharpened sense of awareness when it comes to danger. His instincts are finely honed to detect threats, allowing him to avoid physical attacks, dodge surveillance, and anticipate ambushes. His ability to sense when something is amiss keeps him constantly ahead of his enemies.
Resilience: Olivier is capable of withstanding immense physical and mental stress. Whether under direct attack or dealing with pressure from all sides, he remains calm, calculating, and focused, making him a hard person to outmaneuver even under extreme conditions.
Escape Systems: Olivier has designed a series of failsafes that allow him to escape at any moment, from hidden underground bunkers to escape vehicles equipped with stealth technology. If cornered or facing certain defeat, Olivier will deploy his escape routes, including a vast network of secret locations and encrypted channels that allow him to vanish without a trace.
Decoy Tactics: Using his resources and technology, Olivier can deploy decoys, false trails, and false personas to confuse and mislead anyone trying to track him. He also uses advanced holographic technology to project fake images of himself, leading enemies into traps or away from his actual location.
Unrivaled Financial Strength: Olivier's wealth is his ultimate power. He controls the vast resources of Lacroix Industries and its subsidiaries. With the ability to purchase anything from high-tech gadgets to mercenary armies, his financial resources provide him with endless advantages.
Corporate Manipulation: Olivier can manipulate entire markets and economies, subtly nudging countries and corporations into doing his bidding. His immense wealth allows him to corrupt political systems, create monopolies, and shift the tides of global business, all while staying in the shadows.
