Oscar is an otter healer in the visual novel GameOver. He runs the Healer's Office alongside his secretary Nel and conducts research into how to protect the inhabitants of the town from the corruptive influence of the mist spell surrounding it. He currently has no Bad Ends to find.
Backstory
Having once lived in the capital, Oscar says that he was a member of the healing guild there.[1] He also notes that he knew Harold there during him time as a noble and finds it difficult to treat him as an equal now. They also encouraged each other in their magic research, which resulted in Oscar also becoming an alchemist and dabbling in multiple types of magic.[2] Though the only types of magic that he can properly use are light and water magic.[3] In fact, the methods he uses to treat patients, especially those in the town, was something developed by Harold in the first place.[4]
Questlines
Getting Some Healing
After making friends with Nel and doing several deliveries to the Healer's Office for Azlos,[5][6][7] you will be able to visit the office on your own time and do health checkups with Oscar with Nel's enthusiastic permission.[8] Your first official meeting with him had him interrogating you about how you got to the town without encountering any of the dangerous monsters that surround it and the magic mist, believing you may have some latent ability that protected you.[9] He then proceeds to go through a general health checkup, while also testing your ability to conduct magical energy. He determines that, since you put out no magical energy, that your travel through the mist must have obstructed it, noting that this isn't the first time this has happened to travelers to the town. Though his examination does end up with a bit of inappropriate conduct.[10]
He afterwards notes that what happened to you is incredibly subtle to detect and might have gone unnoticed in anyone else as well if he wasn't employing more alchemical rather than spiritual means of detection.[1] He also hopes that his use of lavender in the room was satisfactory, since he knows large men such as himself can invariably cause other scents to occur.[11] Once the player has interacted with Harold and accepted an offer to train in magic with him[12], Oscar will approve of that activity to help them better understand what happened with your magic powers.[2]
The Way of Healing Magic
Commenting on Varok[13] and Jar[14] after you've met them,[15][16] Oscar is surprised to see fiends working for the town, as everything he has been taught about them is negative. Especially since the kingdom is still fighting against the original tribes of them and he's only heard about them existing to corrupt others. He finds Varok to be the more trustworthy and upstanding of the two.[14] He also requests that you help out Mayor Sep when you have the time, as he feels guilty having stolen the Mayor's secretary.[17] He also wishes that he knew wind-based spells to help him during his examinations and comments on how Nel and he have trouble doing various things because of their large assets getting in the way.[18]
Once you have met Kanat[19] and you have spoken with him to reveal his own connection to Jar[20], you can also discuss with Varok the situation, revealing that Kanat does not have Varak's seal because Jar has claimed him.[21]. Kanat will then discuss with you his preference for Varok and also his hopes for learning more magic with Harold.[22] This all leads to an encounter with Harold after the player had worked with him extensively and also been intimate with his repeatedly, along with having been intimate with Kanat,[23] where Harold will reveal he has decided to accept Kanat as an apprentice. He also explains Kanat's ability to remove the corruption of fiends on people, though details the impact high levels of specific schools of magic have on the physical and mental well being of the practitioner.[24]
This will allow you to discuss corruption from magic usage with Oscar and how this alters one's form to be more physiologically attuned to the type of magic they routinely use. Though if he changed, it would be to either light or water, neither of which are bad to look upon, but he would have a preference to light attunement if required.[25] In the meantime, you can do more examinations with Oscar that give you the opportunity to take advantage of the situation you've been put in and get sexual with the doctor.[26] He shyly thanks you afterwards and offers to do the same to you next time.[27] Then, once you've spoken to Kanat about his personal fears,[28] Oscar notes that he frequently works with and discusses magic with Harold to further both of their activities. They are currently working on developing a ritual to completely counteract the effect of the mist on the town's residents.[29] You can also, after having interacted with Harold's slime invention for removing curses,[30] ask Oscar about his opinion. He is hesitant despite clearly seeing their potential because he's always been taught to not take advantage of living beings. He pledges to take care of any given to him and notes the positive uses of the mana blob byproducts they made. Maybe they can even be used in ice cream.[31]
Becoming A Baby Doctor
Once you've given birth before, Oscar will check in on your well-being, especially since he's never heard of another man giving birth before or producing eggs. Your still unhatched children are in the nursery and are routinely kept care of by Jar. The imp has been teaching Oscar how to do so too in case more children need to be taken care of in the future, whether yours or if another guy ends up with the same condition.[32] If you've had Vandeel's children, the otter will comment on how large the eggs were and he didn't know dwarves were birthed as eggs. He knows this isn't common, even for dwarves, and speculates on whether the strange nature of Vandeel in particular is responsible. He decides he needs to look more into dwarf genetics.[33]
