Olivia

A dancer who travels widely and is quite gifted, despite extreme shyness. Appears in Fire Emblem Awakening. Name: Olivia Gender: Female Race: Human Birthday: August 20 Relatives: Inigo (Future son), Soleil (Future granddaughter) Occupation: Dancer, Member of the Shepherds Weapon: Swords </Personal Information> Olivia is a young woman light skin and lavender eyes. She has long, wavy, light pink hair tied in a high ponytail with a white and gold headband. She wears a white, midriff-exposing outfit with gold accents. Her top is a halter-style with gold trim, held with a crisscrossing band, and connects to sheer detached sleeves covering her forearms. Her lower outfit consists of a white loincloth resembling a bikini bottom with golden buttons on the hip, draped fabric panels, and a gold waistband. She wears translucent purple fabric that goes from her waist to ankles (leaving her legs exposed), and open-toed sandals with gold ankle guards. Gold jewelry and accessories are present on her wrists and upper arms. A shrinking violet at heart, Olivia's shy, demure, and withdrawn nature contradicts her otherwise incredible dancing. She struggles with stage fright when interacting with others and sometimes disengages from conversations when feeling overwhelmed. She is easily frightened, startled, and intimidated even by her own allies and is highly embarrassed when put into the spotlight or having attention drawn to her, even for a completely mundane reason. In a vast majority of her conversations, she also tends to downplay her talents, stating that she is only good at dancing in her recruitment conversation. At the same time, she immediately adds that she feels it is inadequate.

Contrary to her own extreme downplay, Olivia is in fact a talented dancer that is highly revered throughout the realm as a genius in dancing. She has countless fans that have gathered for her performances and has been described by Basilio as the "finest dancer in all the realms." When dancing, Olivia becomes so absorbed in her performance that she is mesmerizing to watch as stated by numerous of her support partners. While dancing is her main passion, she has an appreciation of all performing arts such as singing, which she also happens to be the best singer in the army. Olivia's biggest dream is to open her own theater so people can perform, including herself. To this end, she has delegated part of her war funds towards this goal.

Despite Olivia's shy and socially awkward demeanor, she is actually comfortable around the more crude and loud members of the army. This is made most obvious by her close relationship with Basilio, and her supports with Chrom where they discuss how she met the former. Although painfully shy, Olivia is open about her feelings most of the time, quick to explain herself in any situation or ask for assurance that her actions did not appear to be strange. She can overcome her anxiety to speak frankly when pushed too far or when it comes to her work; she does not, however, find it as easy to discuss more personal thoughts and feelings. Olivia can find the strength to fight for herself, especially when it comes to protecting those she cares about. She will do her best to face her fears and help people, no matter how embarrassed she may feel. Above all else, Olivia wishes to make people smile.

While she is embarrassed by compliments and kind words, Olivia is openly affectionate and caring towards her husband, if married. As a mother, she fostered Inigo's desire to become a dancer himself and has been stated by him to be a kind, guiding instructor. In his youth, Inigo was almost the spitting image of Olivia personality wise and her future self's advice to her young son was to talk to girls to bolster his confidence, resulting in his flirtatious behavior. Olivia was left bewildered by her future self's advice. For all of her self-loathing of her own capabilities, she cannot help but heap praise onto her son and had gone to great lengths to spy on him when he tried to hide himself when practicing. When she finally caught him practicing by sheer happenstance, she immediately commended him and proceeded to give him pointers. She promised to be there for her son and to teach him the remaining section of her favorite dance that her future self was never able to. Olivia is a dancer who travels across the continent in a theater troupe. In the past during one of Olivia's performances, a noble man was smitten by her and plotted to kidnap and marry her. However, Basilio stepped in and prevented this and Olivia has been grateful to him ever since.

Olivia was called by Basilio to The Midmire shortly after the rescue of Emmeryn in Plegia failed. Amidst the pouring rain, she encountered the Plegian General Mustafa. Though he discovered that Olivia was there to lead Chrom and his forces away, Mustafa chose to let her pass without issue. Olivia waits for Chrom and his forces with carriages to safely transport them back to Ferox shortly after Mustafa is slain. Back in Ferox, Chrom resolves himself to continue to fight on and end the Mad King Gangrel once and for all. To ensure victory, Olivia volunteers her services by dancing for them. While Chrom has his reservations, Basilio assures him that her Dance can raise spirits of his allies. Grateful for any edge during the war, Chrom happily accepts her into his ranks for his final battle against Gangrel as well as the future conflicts within Awakening.

In the future, she would have a son named Inigo and a granddaughter named Soleil. Olivia is very talented at dancing. She uses swords as her main weapon.
