[hider=My Hider] [b]Name: [/b]Olivia Alice Matthews [b]Alias/Nickname:[/b] Olive (Despite Emmet knowing the fact she hates nicknames and think she’s too old for one) [b]Age:[/b]13 [b]Race:[/b] Human [b]Appearance:[/b] [hider][img]https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-iEGICLzusPE/Unr025eYm8I/AAAAAAAABtY/xayAqDzQlB0/s500/STENT%2520Forum07112013.jpg[/img][/hider] Olivia’s height is 5’5” and weights at 112 pounds, her built slightly twig like and frail looking for someone her age. Most might see her as a delicate little thing but she is far from it. Her skin has a rosy cream color to it and her eyes seemed to cast slight innocent within them, giving them a soft glow. She normally has some type of flower within her light orange hair as a small token from her Uncle or Emmet. Olivia likes her haircut short. Her outfit is usually what most teens her age wear and dependent on the weather. One of her favorite’s outfits is a colorful, ruffled tank top and either white shorts or slightly worn jeans, ending in blue jean tennis shoes. A pair of sunglasses is clipped to the tank top’s shallow v neck. Social Status: Currently she is the unofficial adopted daughter of Darius, a Kitsune demon, who is one of the most powerful casino owners within Kenan. So she’s rather well off for a bargaining chip. [b]Connections:[/b] [u]Family[/u] Emmet Matthews-Her 27 year old brother. Darius Cain- A Kitsune demon, she calls the demon ‘Uncle Darius’ and acknowledges him as her current caregiver. Aeris Kasio- Mother/sister, Aeris pretty much helped Darius to raise her. [u]Known Strangers[/u] Juan- Unlike Emmet, she’s only met Juan ever so often and usually when Darius is around. She doesn’t know much about the demon. Only that he started to appear after Emmet’s 22th birthday, around the time Emmet's magic appeared, but according to Uncle Darius he’s there to help Emmet in his job. It doesn't help his presence gives her the creeps whenever she's found him...looking smugly at her brother, a shiver of knowing he's hiding something. [b]General Activity: [/b]She’s tasked with learning at the Kenan's Private Girl's School and living her life as an average pre-teenager. Every other weekend, Emmet tends to pick her up and visits for long hours on end. [b]Abilities:[/b] [b]Name[/b] Essence Retrace: Unknown to Emmet or even Darius, Olivia has been keeping a deep, dark secret. An ability which started to appear a year ago and only has grown in strength in recent months. Able to sample the Essence of any object, Olivia can slowly piece together its history and where’s been from the item’s point of view. From everyone's who's held to the places it's been, limited only by what was within its view, she'd can witness as far back as the items 'birth'. [indent][indent] [b]Type[/b]Non Combative [b]Range[/b]Touch [b]Duration[/b] Direct Touch length [b]Other info[/b] The longer she holds it and focuses, the more she is able to see. However any affects the item might have or hidden surprises aren’t affected or lower the risk. At this early stage she gives into fits of seizures and pain due to her lack of practice and control using this magic. [/indent][/indent] She can will learn more magic depending on the development of her current one. [b]Equipment:[/b] No weapons or armor. [b]Personality:[/b] Every Mairyell copy needs a mini Aeris... :P [b]Biography:[/b] For as long as Olivia remembers, Darius has been her caretaker. A father and guardian, her unnatural edginess since she was four long had faded or merely sealed away, as he raised her within his own home. Darius had told her father was killed in a car crash, and mother, in a home invasion, while he was delivering his condoles for their father’s death. Darius said Emmet resented him because he sent their father out which explained the animosity between her brother and Darius, even when they tried to hide it behind closed doors. Emmet unable to provide proper care, Darius had said he felt it was his duty to ensure she was taken care since he felt responsible for her father's death. Since she was young, Olivia merely went with the follow of things. Darius insisted, despite her protests, that she was home schooled though she suspected it was more because of loneliness then the one sided argument he believe it would be in her best interest. When she hit about eight, he finally gave in to her reasoning and allowed her to attend Kenan Private All Girl's School where she ended up with a small group of friends. Despite her experience with the better life within the city, she is a common and average girl her age. It started a year ago when her ability kicked in. A friend had bought a thrift shop item, a jewelry box, which seemed to be made from wood and ivory. It was too pretty for her not to touch and the moment she did, a strange and powerful feeling had swallowed her up. Though that touch she saw the item’s whole history from the time it had been fashioned by the kind crafter, delivered as a gift and finally used as the murder weapon, bashing in some poor teenage's face just before it ended up in a thrift shop. Needless to say, Olivia was pale while she told her friend to return it. Since then, she’s been rather careful of what she touches. So far, neither Emmet nor Darius knows about her ‘gift’ as she doesn’t think they would understand what it’s like. Or worse, believe it was inside her head. It wasn’t easy and a few close calls happened when it became stronger but now, she discovered a way to prevent it from happening. Namely by covering her hands with her gloves that have little to no negative history acts as a buffer against anything she touches, at least with her hands were he ability is most focused at. There have been a few instants before, namely with items filled with a violent or strong emotional history that she can't seem to be able to stop when she forgot her gloves. During these moments, to the name eye she appears to be seizing uncontrollably like the source is shocking her with a high voltage charge until it's complete or it's pried from her fingers.
