Actual Name
: Oliver 'Stretch' Baker (no one calls him by his first name as he never tells them what is was in the first place) 
Current Age: Unknown
Species: Human
D.O.B.: Unknown
Body Frame: Tall, slim, broad shoulders
Status: Discontinued character (was too annoying for the audience [though mainly Joey] for only singing instead of being an actual planned out character)
Role is show: Side singer (usually those guys who sing for the intro or typically are in the parts where any dancing is taken place) Stretch is the singer of the show but can be a klutz (which explains the "supposed to be" bandaid on his nose as he falls on his face a lot haha)
Personality:
 Loud
 Perky
 Slightly Narcissistic 
 Quirky
 Social
 Attention-Seeker
 Hopeful
 Determined
 Stubborn
Pet Peeves
 Singing with other people
 Someone interrupting him
 No one listening to him
 Someone comparing his voice to someone else (Worse one of all, NEVER COMPARE HIM.)
Weakness:
 Losing his voice 
 Lack of ink
 Gets distracted easily
Strengths/Powers:
 When singing, he can blast his voice, becoming very loud to wear it hurts your ears (if loud enough can cause temporary or permanent deafness) This tactic can be used when killing his victims. Oliver will hold the victim down and sing (more like scream) as loud as possible till he kills you (he hits a certain pitch that humans should not hear, killing them due to the painful and loud sound)
 Very fast and quiet (though he has a loud singing voice, the character tends to be quiet when he isn't singing.)
 Like any other character, he is made of ink, and can take form of puddles of ink if he wants to, though he likes to stay whole.
Likes:
Singing, dancing, attention, writing music, his own voice, praise, lollipops, stripes, his hat, swing music, people dancing to his singing, messing around, water, pianos, ukuleles, book, English (the class), and theatre.

Dislikes:
Loud places (if loud people won't hear him sing), being ignored, losing his voice, trying to be romantic (cause he sucks at it haha), comparing his voice with someone else, people losing interest in him, any drinks that may ruin his singing voice, the smell of cigarettes, other singers (tends to get jealous quickly) and being made a fool of.
Voice: Al Bowlly

Backstory
:
Oliver was created by a worker named Howard Moonin who always loved to sing and dance, at times Howard would be caught singing and dancing at his work area when he was working on Oliver to give the character a more 'lively' manner on screen. Because Howard couldn't achieve his dream in being a world famous singer he instead, he took a job to work under Joey Drew, who honestly didn't enjoy the character as he seemed to be too in vain with his voice and trying too hard to make himself known in the series (though many disagreed with Joey, they didn't announce it as they wish to keep their jobs). Howard seemed to be a bright man who had his quirks, singing along with his character Oliver whenever he was on screen and clearly showed pride in his creation.

After a while, with Joey slowly losing his mind, Howard was let go do to shortage of money. Oliver was quickly removed from the show and many bitting Howard good-bye before quickly going back to work. From there, Howard took that opportunity to become a singer. Overtime, he finally made his debut, all while using Oliver as an icon to represent him, his dreams were finally coming true and many seemed to love Howard and Oliver very quickly.

As he was heading to one of his concerts where at the time, the streets were severally busy, there was a car accident and sadly, Howard passed away due to impact. In memory of their fallen friend, the people working under Joey had made a small shrine for Howard at his working area, drawing goofy pictures of Oliver with other characters or by himself. The most recently drawn picture from one of the workers was a picture of Howard in cartoon form, with Oliver, both singing along with the phrase "An angelic voice; taken away too soon." 


After Math
:
After a while many stopped leaving their partings along side Howard's work place, the flowers from past visits slowly began to rot away along with the pictures which continued to collect dust, it left the work area empty and completely abandoned. One day, someone recently hired named Joseph Banning, was given Howard's workplace, Joseph, completely new, was given eyes from older workers, leaving Joseph baffled in why they muttered about "Howard's desk'", he didn't have any knowledge on who this "Howard" was but it didn't bother him. He saw the work place and figured out what the workers were rambling about, finding slight disgust with the mess no one bothered to pick up. With hard work Joseph cleaned up the place, throwing away the dead flowers and dusty pictures rather than putting them in boxes. The office turned into his own work place and was clearly happy with his cleaning, he was now ready to work with the rest. However, he wasn't prepared for the consequences for cleaning.......

Joseph, now adjusted after several months, already getting comfortable with the co-workers and finding work just fine other then the fact that Joey Drew was a bit "off" to him, he started walking in "his" office, finding small and old pictures of Oliver laying on his desk which always read "I'm the star, I don't belong in the trash" With what seemed to be a failed attempt of a drawn Oliver. At first, Joseph saw this as a silly and dumb prank but after a while, the pictures began to take a dark turn. When coming back at the work place [daily] the pictures would have Oliver in a horrible accident with sentences such as "He was special, I don't belong in garbage" or "You can't throw out a star that easily". From there Joseph asked his co workers about this "sick prank" yet no one seemed to believe him, causing him to develop paranoia and anxiety at the increasing amount of gruesome pictures popping up on his desk.

It got to the point where Joseph ended up making Oliver be put back in the series but decided to completely change Oliver into a complete klutz and mock the character he saw in those unsettling pictures in order to cheer himself. Without warning, Joseph only received threats from the pictures, showing Oliver standing over Joseph's body reading under: "Make fun of a star and it'll shoot". Joseph quit immediately, completely terrified of the area, he left haunted by the 'lovable' character Oliver. 

After quitting, his ex-coworkers went to check the work place, only to find a small, clean shrine for Howard with a small picture of Oliver waving, the sentence under the picture read: "Some things should be left abandoned!!!"

Ink Form Abilities:
 Is able to stretch enough to block an entrance to a hallway (if he wanted to)
 Shape shift in anything he wishes to (even if it is make believe though if he shift too much is slowly begins to look deformed)
 Can mimic the recordings easily all while watching whoever may be listening to it, the only way to know if he visited the tap is if there is black splotches on the record and play button)
