tiny fe3h verse info dump pt 1 til i write something more formal:
eighteen at game start, thus twenty-three/twenty-four after the skip
her canonical promotion line is similar to that of dorotheas, strong magic (reason weight, faith secret growth) affinity with dancer being her “canonical” class, but an affinity for swords too. she prefers ranged fighting, and is interested in learning bowfare.
she was in a touring dance troope prior to attending garreg mach, and hails from the almyra empire.
she is a commoner, but she is in more recent high standing with nobles due to her status as a recognized performer since her youth, and likewise her fierce strength – even if she does not always recognize it. i’ll nominate that basilio and flavia are nobles/commanding offices/some sort of leaders of status within the almyra empire, thus enhancing her status due to basilio considering her an adoptive daughter, even with both her parents alive and well.
idk about her relation to crests yet ill figure it out
shes of faith to a reasonable level, but she is not devout to the utmost level.
she wears her uniform similarly to either petra or dorothea. if like petras, it is with the black jacket resting on her shoulders, but not wearing the sleeves. if she is wearing it similarly to dorothea she might wear a neck scarf, gold jewelry, and/or lots of hair accessories.
she is often found practicing her dancing outside, or singing in the church.
MORE TIDBITS for your consumption
she can be recruited to other houses, she is far from being Deer locked, and I believe she’d have a sympathy for Edelgard and her vision, were she to learn more about it, given she has a slight disdain for nobles and the ruling class. as a performer, she has had similar bad experiences to her background in awakening/dorotheas experiences. while the two are very different characters, dorothea does feel like a spiritual successor to the character they built at Olivia’s base. I want to honor this without them being completely overlapped of course.
olivia still adores gardening and flowers, she has an almost encyclopedic knowledge of them, so aside from practice rooms or such for her music/performance, as well as the prior listed haunts, she will often be in the greenhouse. with a love of animals too, she likes the horse stalls, the fishing pond, the greenery throughout garreg mach.
her timeskip outfit is predominantly white with gold accents, with flowing fabric that lets her move easily. the sillouette would be like hildas top half, though with sheer sleeves, differences in the bustier and cutouts, lots of sheer fabric, lace, gold trim, accents, and hardwear, a similar black collar piece, perhaps some small black velvet bows and such. the lower silhouette would feature a similar corset piece to dorotheas but in gold, with different shape work and such, and a similar skirt shape that her outer dress has in layers of silk, tulle, and accents of lace. rather than the underskirt, olivia has a pair of crisp black shorts with gold hardware and piping, and finally the look is finished with black leather thigh high boots. her hair is in a half up, half down style ala ar/iana gr/ande, with gold clips and a white velvet ribbon around the base of the half ponytail.
her pre-skip hair was her usual ponytail but instead of the braids in the front, she had a singlar braid wrapped around the base of her high pony. on off-days- non-combat days, meaning sometimes class days- she would sometimes wear her hair completely down, sometimes with some of it pinned away from her face.
her good standing with certain nobles does not alleviate her issues with the ruling class, and has not prevented her from suffering, especially due to noblemen. basilio has intervened, but he has not always been able to. the kidnapping storyline from awakening remains here.
