Olive Farber

> Oh I can't wait! I calculate at least a 85% chance of total decimation of his shield, unless the rumours of its dust-reflecting capabilities hinders on my hypothesis! But only one way to find out, here we go!

### First Appearance

"On The Edge"

Olive Farber is a side character in Team OPRA's story. She is a former student at Beacon Academy and a member of Team ROCK. Her weapons of choice are a set of maneuver appendages and dual submachine pistols called *Atlantic* and *Pacific.*

She first appears in "On the Edge" fighting with her partner Rocky Argyis in the 40th Biannual Vytal Festival against Tanner Ackerman and Conrad 'Birdie' Nigellus. Despite being able to eliminate Birdie, Olive and Rocky are defeated when the latter's high-impact dust laser reflects off of Tanner's shield-semblance and eliminates both of them via aura depletion.

When Grimm begin to invade Beacon Academy, Olive and Rocky help Team OPRA and Team ALMD rescue students trapped in the Vytal Showgrounds. Afterwards she is evacuated from the academy.

After the Fall of Beacon, Olive and her team are transferred to Atlas Academy and recruited into their Research and Development program to help create experimental technology for the academy and military.

## Appearance

### Physical

Olive is a small and thin young woman. She stands at 4'9ft and weighs in at 90lbs. She has pale skin with a round head shape, dark green eyes, and a mole under her left eye. She has almost platinum blond hair that is wavy and tied into two twin plated-braids.

Through the use of self-developed cybernetics, Olive sports minor indentations and small mechanical plating across her back and waist to allow her neural connection with her weapons.

### Attire

Olive's initial attire consists of a light green button up shirt with a dark green striped tie. Over that, she wears an Olive and Dark Green pinstriped pinafore dress. On her legs she wears dark brown stockings and black Mary Jane shoes. Because of her disability, Olive commonly sits in a sleek black wheelchair that she wheels herself around in.

## Personality

Olive is shown to be an upbeat, energetic, and hyper-intelligent young woman. Because of her high genius-level intellect and love for technology, she can become distracted when in the presence of a piece of machinery or weapon she's never seen before, as evident in her admiration for Tanner's assault Rifle. Despite that, Olive is incredibly friendly towards others. Despite being paralysed from the waist down, Olive is shown to not let herself be limited by her disability. Instead she firmly believes she can do just as much as the abled bodied students of Beacon.

## Background

Olive was born in the Kingdom of Atlas as the second daughter of two Atlesian researchers. When Olive was a toddler, she was involved in a bullhead accident that paralysed her from the waist down. Olive quickly adapted to using a wheelchair from a young age.

Olive was still inspired to become a huntress regardless of her disability. She applied and was accepted into Beacon Academy, being one of the few students to receive a perfect score on both the written and practical exam. During the entrance exam, she met Rocky Argyis and became her partner. She was then initiated into Team ROCK.

## Abilities and Powers

Olive boasts a highly unique but incredibly strong style of combat. She is shown to have an upper hand in manoeuvrability with her mechanical appendages. While not super-speedy, her appendages allow her to easily get from point to point in the heat of a fight. She is able to adequately provide fire support with her machine gun pistols as shown in her fight against Tanner and Birdie. While not packing quite a punch in them, they are enough to whittle down her opponents auras and allow her team mates to deal more damage once/if it is broken. Through the High Impact laser in her appendages, Olive can pack a strong punch at the cost of being immobile for a short duration.

### Weaknesses

However because of her small size, Olive also has a weaker aura reserve. This can let opponents easily take out her aura quickly. If her appendages were to run out of charge from the electrical dust batteries or were stopped in any way, Olive can be rendered almost completely immobile if she isn't close to her chair.

### Weapon

Olive's weapons are called *Atlantic* and *Pacific*. Atlantic is the *Dual Manoeuvring Combat Appendages (DMCA)* and Pacific are the *Dual Energy Machine Pistols (DEMP).* Atlantic in its compact form is a black and green metallic backpack that Olive carries around. When activated, two 5-meter tentacle-like appendages will emerge from the sides of the backpack. These appendages serve as a means to help Olive move around the battlefield. On the ends of these appendages are three-clawed talon like grips that allow Olive to grab onto things. While functioning as a means of moving for Olive, another mode Atlantic has are two dual heavy-duty dust lasers. By focusing her appendages, Olive can emit a strong large laser beam made from dust. While this takes away her mobility, this laser can take out peoples auras in single shots and instantly evaporate certain targets.

Pacific meanwhile are a set of dual machine-auto pistols that Olive uses as her primary fire. Like Atlantic, they are cased in a green and black metal with a brown grip. Olive commonly uses dust-energy ammunition with these guns.

### Semblance

Olive's semblance is called *Analyse.* With her semblance, Olive can fully learn how a piece of technology works when she disassembles and reassembles it. By disassembling a piece of technology and then rebuilding it, Olive can fully understand how the machine in question works. This further enhances Olive's already genius-level intellect with technology. The semblance will activate while Olive takes apart the machine and puts it together. Analyse requires Olive's full attention as she works, often leading to her blocking out anything else when she is working. The larger and more complex the machine/piece of technology is, the more strain it will put on Olive. This often leads to her developing headaches and nosebleeds.

## Relationships

### Rocky Argyis

Rocky and Olive are shown to have an incredibly close platonic relationship as partners.
