Olejer is cheerful and sociable, but does not need to be the center of attention. He enjoys talking to anyone and everyone, and cultivates an attitude of a harmless gossip. He used to be a thoughtless gossip, but over his years he's learned when to keep his mouth shut and, more importantly, when to let information slip.

Olejer is a spy, and has worked with a network of spies across the Nexus since he left home. Where "home" is depends on who he's spoken to, but Olejer has a dozen stories and even identities that he keeps separate based on his work.

The latest, long-term work that Olejer is doing revolves around finding and rescuing his younger sister, who he has tracked down to Arx Infusco in the last few months. He concocted a plan to bond some Beasts to aid him in his cover as working at the Arx as a common drudge, and plans one keeping an ear to the ground for where his siblings has got to, and whether she's still alive. Being a low-ranking thrall has its own dangers, however, and so Olejer spends almost as much time keeping Okley and Obasi safe from becoming snacks. Luckily, both share his clever instincts.

Okley has seen his fair share of scrapes, and he avoids larger Beasts when possible. He spends most of his time lurking amongst non-Beasts who mistake his size and shape as 'lesser than' without necessarily feeling cannibalistically snackish. From here, he listens in on conversations, especially thoes dealing with outsiders who have been coming and going from the Arx. He aims to be Olejer's ears, but this is a difficult task for one of his station.

She's very curious about finding Olajer's sister, and privately has intentions to fold her into their bonded group. She doesn't understand why humans are so telepathically stunted, though those few that she has read seem dull in other regards, driven mainly by fear rather than fire.
