"An olive tastes like a bitter, salty mistake.  It has an overwhelming brininess that clings to your tongue, a sour tang that lingers far too long, and an oily, almost medicinal aftertaste that makes you question why you even tried it in the first place. It's as if someone took the essence of old vinegar, mixed it with saltwater, and wrapped it in a rubbery, slightly rancid skin. The kind of taste that makes you shudder and reach for anything to wash it away." -Naertho Ilcan Vaalor

Description

You see Olivianne the Forager.

She appears to be a Half-Elf from Ta'Vaalor.

She is notably short and has a leanly muscled physique. She appears to be fresh-faced and newly stepping into adulthood. She has large hazel eyes and smooth tanned skin. She has nape-length, wavy sandy blonde hair framing her face in a disheveled, carefree style. She has a sharply defined, small face, a freckled nose and a sprinkling of diminutive freckles across her cheeks.

Background

Known by most simply as "Olive," Olivianne is the daughter of a well respected Legionnaire Commander in the Crimson Legion and an unknown (at least to her) human maiden. She was raised solely in Ta'Vaalor and is very tight lipped about her upbringing, though you can get a sense from speaking to her that hers was not an easy childhood.

Upon reaching adulthood, Olive left the Nations and settled, for a time, in Wehnimer's Landing, where she discovered a life and people very different from those with which she grew up. It was during these early days of adventuring that Olive began to open up to the possibility of working toward a greater good instead of just doing whatever was necessary to ensure her survival. This led her to first embrace the Guardians of Sunfist, and then the Order of Voln, the latter of which she still actively supports.

Current Activity

Ever the wanderer, Olive eventually made her way to River's Rest and Solhaven, often splitting her time between the two places as she continued to hone her skills. It was during her time in Solhaven that she met Ifanna Aynesworth and became enchanted with the Order of the Azure Sun. Eager to join with a cause in which she believed, she relentlessly pursued the Order until finally, on the 30th day of Lumnea, in the year 5125, she was accepted as a page.

As a rule, she can still be found flitting between the Landing, Solhaven and the Rest both causing and avoiding trouble in equal measure.
