History

Quote1 I've messed up a lot more times than I can remember. But the ones who found me, they just kept on giving me second, third—maybe seventh chances... I didn't always believe that I deserve 'em, but after realizing that I'm not the only one going through it, I knew that I gotta help myself too so I can keep helping out others in need. Quote2
-- Arsenal


Roy Harper (born November 1988) was born to an outgoing father, who worked as a forest ranger until he died saving civilians in a major forest fire that took place in Navajoland. After his father's passing, Roy was adopted by Keekuk Bigbow, a respected resident of a Navajo Reservation near the fire. Keekuk raised Roy as his own alongside his son, Kele, training him in the arts of archery since he had shown talent and passion for using a bow and arrow. Even as Roy's attentive older adoptive brother, Kele was envious of his talent, although he did his best caring and looking out for him. Roy, on the other hand, sought adventure outside the Navajo Reservation on his own, despite his adoptive father's encouragement that he'd wait until he's old enough to travel. Even when Roy would become rebellious by secretly traveling to the next city with his close friends and neighbors, Big Bow remained understanding of him and made him feel loved, something that Roy was always grateful for.

However, when he was a teenager, Big Bow suddenly perished at the hands of a bad-tempered police officer who had him framed as the culprit and several residents vouching against him doing a crime he never committed, forcing a devastated Roy to flee home and travel as far as Seattle, the city that would eventually be known in the next decade as Star City. In his new life, Roy struggled to fit in and make a living for himself as a wandering young nomad who often pickpocketed in public places as he sometimes lived in homeless shelters. One day, Roy ended up crossing paths with Oliver Queen after stealing some of his equipment as the vigilante Green Arrow, a figure that Roy had seen as a Robin Hood-like figure due to his selfless actions as a crimefighter across the city. Seeing the potential and heart in Roy, Oliver gave the kid a chance to put his skills to good use, taking him under his wing as his companion or sidekick. Young Roy's swift movements and remarkable acrobatics, which he first demonstrated after helping the Green Arrow with non-fatally shooting down armed robbers with his own bow and arrows, earned him the moniker Speedy.
