Ollie the Magic Bum.
Ollie the Magic Bum is a homeless man featured in several games in the Tony Hawk series. He is presented as a poorly dressed man with a mysterious bottle and hand-made skateboard.
Gear and Specific Notes
He uses a hand-made skateboard (nailed wooden planks) that has a "Will Skate For Food" sign on the underside. He's known for his "I'll open up a can on you, punk!", "You get out of here you, creep!" and "Aight! You gotta change?" exclamations.
In-game Appearance
Ollie first appeared as an NPC in THPS2 in Venice for a goal where the player had to jump (ollie) over him as he moved mysteriously (magically) from one spot to the next. In THPS3 he became a playable character. Later he appeared in THPS4 as an NPC again, where he gave several goals on different maps (like "Collect the Pink Elephants"). In THUG he was again an NPC, giving a goal in New Jersey to collect boxes that were parts of his "house" in exchange for a train ticket. A custom skater resembling Ollie can be created by using parts such as his coats, face, trousers and shoes. He returned as an unlockable character once more in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD.
