- Count Olaf is the primary antagonist of the children's book series A Series of Unfortunate Events (by Lemony Snicket). He is a stage and film actor as well as impresario. One of the leaders of the Schism (a split in the secret organization of V.F.D.), Olaf was a former suitor of Kit Snicket. As Olaf had gained notoriety for numerous counts of arson, the Baudelaire siblings believed he may have caused the Baudelaire fire that killed their parents, but he denied it when confronted. Count Olaf is a distant relative of the Baudelaires and was once their adoptive father. He holds an unexplained fixation with the Baudelaires' inheritance in particular, and has followed them with a dogged obsession. Olaf's most distinguishing marks are one single eyebrow and a tattoo of the V.F.D. eye on his ankle. He employs his acting skills and various disguises in his plots. His disguises usually do little besides cover his eyebrow and tattoo, which is sufficient to fool most characters. The Baudelaires are able to recognize his other characteristics, such as his wheezy voice and shiny eyes, but other characters don't notice these marks, and very few of them believe the Baudelaires' claims to recognize him. He is the only character other than the Baudelaire children themselves to appear in every book in the series. Count Olaf is guilty of arson, first degree murder, second degree murder, attempted murder, frameup, identity theft, kidnapping, forced marriage, false imprisonment, theft, attempted theft, fraud, falsification of evidence, harassment, criminal facilitation, conspiracy, numerous counts of aiding and abetting and according to Snicket, poor hygiene.
