Olivia most commonly wears traditional Tarn clothing (similar to old Arabian clothes - think Jasmine from Disney's Aladdin), because that's the kind of style she has grown up with, though she is now slowly expanding her wardrobe after leaving Tarn. She prefers soft and light fabrics - things that aren't too warm, and that are easy to move around in - and preferably in the colours white, cream/beige, olive green, and light brown. Back home in Tarn, she made all of her clothes herself, as Olivia enjoys sewing and making her own outfits. When it comes to jewelry, she prefers silver over gold, though she values things with personal meaning over looks. She always has a shawl with her in a dark primrose pink colour that she inherited from her mother - it's one of her most prized possessions, along with the googles Liam made for her.
Personality ::
Olivia is the kind of person that sees beauty in everything around her, no matter what, and if something doesn't seem all that pretty at first glance, then "there is nothing wrong with the thing you are looking at, but with the way you're looking at it." She has her own way of looking at the world, and nothing anyone says to her can change that. She's fascinated by the world - nature itself in particular - and she can spend hours just inspecting a small patch of green in a forest or watching ants build their home. Although Olivia is a child of nature in many ways, she's also very fascinated by technology - it's uncommon where she lives - and thus also very fascinated by people that knows a lot about it.
Olivia is sweet and kind, and horribly naive, always giving people the benefit of the doubt - even when they don't deserve it. She has a bad tendency to apologize for just about anything and everything she says and does - more or less apologizing for her entire existence - which is due to the way the villagers inof Tarn have been treating her for the past seven years. She's used to people making rules for her, telling her what to say, do, and even think, and never being allowed to have her own opinion. Because of this, her self-esteem is somewhat fragile, and she has little confidence in herself, her abilities, and her own worth - unless it's regarding her potions and her herbal skills, which is the only area where Olivia knows she's good.
But beneath the layer of insecurities, there hides a strong will and a determination that can move mountains if she puts her mind to it, and once she has made up her mind about something, it is absolutely impossible to get her to change it. Olivia is energetic and cheerful, passionate about the things she cares about- and at times a bit of a roller coaster of emotions - and she can also show quite the temper if the wrong buttons are pushed. She's surprisingly sensual - if one is lucky enough to spark that part of her - and despite her innocent appearance, she has quite a dirty side to her that few has ever gotten to see. She's got a creative mind, but not all that many ways of expressing that (she's fond of sewing, but has rarely been allowed the time to do so, and she loves all kinds of crafting), but first and foremost, Olivia is a curious little kitten, wanting to explore the world around her. She loves traveling, seeing new places, and her natural curiosity can easily get her into trouble - though she's rarely aware of said trouble. She's fond of learning new things, and is an eager student no matter what it is she's studying, always giving her entire attention to the subject. She wants to learn and grow, and evolve, and she truly belives that if everyone spent more time listening to others and paying attention to the things they can teach, then the worlds would become a better place.

Olivia grew up in a small village named Tarn, placed at the base of the mountains that seperates eastern and western Taamarin - mountains known for draining the life out of anyone that touches their black soil. She showed a natural knack for potion making at an early age, and with her mother being the village's potion maker, it was only natural that the young girl would follow in her mother's footsteps. As a child, Olivia was cheerful and energetic, with a seemingly unbreakable spirit, and a curiosity that never failed to get her in trouble. She had a very close relationship with her mother, and would follow her around just about anywhere, though her relationship with her father was more distant. Even though Olivia's father, Baarim, is the chieftain of Tarn, he has a surprisingly weak will, and it was more or less his wife, Elga - Olivia's mother - whom "pulled the strings", so to speak. But, Elga suffered from a rare, and incurable, disease known as EDS - Energy Deficiency Syndrome - a disease that eats at a person's energy, slowly draining it away, until it starts draining away their life force. She was already nearing the end of her lifespan when she, one day, got careless while inside a cave in the black mountains, and touched its poisonous soil. The hunters did not find her in time, and although the healers did their very best, it was simply impossible to save her, and she passed away. Olivia was 12 at the time, and her mother's passing completely broke her in every way, and for several months she didn't even leave the house, her entire existence utterly shattered. It took a full year before Olivia finally managed to get back on her feet, and regain that cheerfulness that she used to have, but things were never the same. Now that her mother was not around, the villagers quickly took charge of Olivia's life, setting all sorts of rules that she had to follow - and she was never again allowed to leave the village without someone escorting her.
By the time Olivia turned 15, she had finally overcome her fear of the dreaded mountains that had claimed her mother, by forcing herself to venture further and further into the very cave her mother had died in (after having to sneak out of the village to do so). She had also fully taken on the position as the village's potion maker - a highly important position, nearly equal to that of a priestess - but was denied the rights to do anything else with her time, and thus all she could do was focus her energy on her potions. Olivia's closest friend at the time was Mala - a sewstress a couple of years older than Olivia - and it was her support that helped Olivia get back on her feet when her mother died. Due to carelessness, however, Mala accidentally got pregnant with her boyfriend - Baelar - and she faced a tough pregnancy as her fragile health caused many complications. Olivia did her best to help and support her friend, but Mala eventually passed away while giving birth to her daughter. Baelar was heartbroken by Mala's death - just months before her Rhyatek where the two had planned on getting married - and for the next couple of years, Olivia helped raise the child while he got back on his feet.
By the time Olivia turned 18, she had become a highly skilled potion maker and herbalist, and in many ways the village had grown dependant on her and her assistance. Olivia helps assist the midwives of Tarn - both in caring for the pregnant women, as well as helping with the childbirth - and she also helps out the healers in all ways, as well as participating as a dancer in the village's ceremonies. All in all, Olivia is a lot more capable than she is ever given credit for - something the village has learned to take advantage of. But when no one is watching, Olivia often sneaks away - either to sit on her mother's grave, or to just wander around in the forests - deeply longing to leave her home and see the worlds, but never daring to even say so out loud.
Then, one day, the hunters came across a small group of people passed out in the mountains, and as they are taken back to the village and cared for, it turns out that these strangers come from the very worlds Olivia so long to see.

This was Olivia's original timeline, before the Misfits came into her life and completely changed it, though she may still end up walking down this path, depending on the results of her 19th birthday - and her own wedding.
Cutting all ties to her own village, Olivia builds a new life running her potion's shop in Halfway Holding, and after years of running around the worlds with the Misfits, she retreats to spend the rest of her life working on her potions - and serving as a support and "mother" to the Misfits. 20 years into the future, she's still in Halfway Holding, running her shop, which has then expanded to including handmade clothes and jewelry, and she is surrounded by many friends and loved ones.
After leaving her village on peaceful terms, she becomes a part of the Misfits as a guild member, and with the support of her friends - and, most importantly, her closest friend; Liam - Olivia becomes a strong and independant young woman. After losing her eyesight, she starts studying energy manipulation - and the martial arts known as Powra - becoming more than just a simple medic, and she becomes a strong support to her friends - both on and off the battlefield. 20 years into the future, Olivia has grown up to become a beautiful and headstrong woman, and she has moved back to Tarn and settled down. She's married with two children - two boys - and she owns and runs a school she had built for her village where she teaches basic herbology.
After leaving Tarn on friendly terms, and with the support of her friends and her new husband, Liam, Olivia gains a newfound confidence in herself that she has never had before, causing a lot of changes in her.
