===Analysis===

{{analysis}}

Olivia is the only dancer in ''Awakening'', and as such will consistently have a role in the player's army throughout the entire game. She joins underleveled and with weak stats, but dancing grants significant experience in ''Awakening'', so she can gain experience and level up quickly when deployed even in weak Risen skirmishes on the [[world map]] as long as she dances for her teammates rather than fights. Dancers in ''Awakening'' can also wield swords: Olivia is not an excellent combat unit without investment, but can be decent if desired due to her high skill and speed growths.

Reclassing Olivia requires losing access to the Dancer class for a time, and so it is recommended she at least end up as one: however, she makes excellent use of survivability-increasing skills such as the [[Avoid&nbsp;+10]] and [[Vantage]] granted by reclassing to [[Myrmidon]]. Thanks to universally higher growth rates in all her reclass options, going through any reclass option is helpful for her long-term viability, but she gains the most from the aforementioned Myrmidon skills, [[Lethality]] from [[Assassin]], or potentially [[Astra]] and [[Swordfaire]] from [[Swordmaster]], which can activate in addition to Vantage to keep her alive in a dangerous situation. While she can learn [[Galeforce]], she makes significantly less use of it than most other characters do, as her time is better spent refreshing other units instead of fighting, and the Rally skills granted by [[Dark Flier]] and [[Falcon Knight]] are generally less helpful than her dancing, especially with the aid of [[Special Dance]].

As a mother, Olivia cannot pass down Special Dance or the Dancer class to [[Inigo]], so it is recommended that she reclass in order to grant him a more useful skill than [[Luck&nbsp;+4]], including potentially Galeforce. She is one possible mother to [[Lucina]], but as she joins in the same chapter that [[Chrom]] marries at the end of, marrying her to Chrom requires minimizing the amount of time Chrom spends with other potential wives and maximizing the amount of time he spends with her in Chapter&nbsp;11, and this may not be desired. It does, however, grant Inigo [[Rightful King]] and [[Lucina]] access to Galeforce.

There are three different variations of Olivia available to ''Heroes'', both of which are tied to her storyline appearance in ''Awakening''. The normal variation of Olivia is one of the characters available to be summoned by players from the game's initial launch, and is also the eleventh of twelve characters that are part of the game's [[Hero Battle]] rotation; she was first made available via Hero Battle at 7:00 AM UTC on February 12, 2017 through 6:59 AM UTC on Feburary 13, 2017, and her Hero Battle has been available during the same time period every twelve days thereafter. A performing-arts variation of Olivia was made available between the period of September 29, 2017 through October 30, 2017 as part of the summoning event surrounding the launch of the [[Performing Arts]] update. A variation of Olivia, here dubbed "Ylissean Travelers" variation after the name of the [[List of summoning events in Fire Emblem Heroes/Q3 2018#New Heroes: Ylissean Travelers|summoning event she debuted in]] for lack of a theme common to most other variant characters, was made available on July 20, 2018 surrounding the launch of the [[Prince of Ice]] update.

The normal variation of Olivia is one of a select few characters to have been inherently available at all five rarities, although inherent availability at five-star rarity has been limited to summoning focuses.

Olivia appears as a playable character in {{FEWA1}} through the game's ''Awakening'' [[Downloadable content in Fire Emblem Awakening|downloadable content]] pack. She makes no appearances in the game's main story, though she is featured in the [[Caravan Dancer]] History Mode map.

|weapon={{item|fewa|Bronze Sword|image=sword}}

Olivia is an extremely shy individual, though she manages to shed her shyness when doing her dance routines.<ref>{{cite|'''Maribelle:''' When you dance, you're so...daring! You stand tall and proud, completely unafraid to meet the watcher's eye. You exhibit great strength and dignity.<br>'''Olivia:''' Oh...b-b-but... Argh, stop it! This is so embarrassing!<br>'''Maribelle:''' And yet when you stop, you become this jabbering, bashful mess of insecurities. I want to see more of Olivia the Bold and less of Olivia the Mouse! Got it?!|Olivia and [[Maribelle]]|Awakening}}</ref> When flustered she frequently exclaims "how embarrassing" and assorted derivatives of the phrase. Despite her skills Olivia often plays down her talents to others out of shyness. Her roster description also mentions that she is a mesmerizing singer.

Her son [[Inigo]] shares her shyness, in the future she told him the best way for Inigo to become less shy was to talk to ladies; the Olivia of the present questions what her future self was thinking when she gave that advice.<ref>{{cite|'''Inigo:''' Yes you are! When I was little, I was even more shy than you are now. I came to you in tears asking how to be more comfortable around people. And you said the fastest way for a man to practice bravery was to talk to women!<br>'''Olivia:''' ...Oh, gods. What in the world was my future self thinking?|Olivia and [[Inigo]]|Awakening}}</ref>

==Endings==

'''Olivia, Shrinking Violet''' (single ending)<br>

Though she never overcame her stage fright, Olivia danced across the land, mending the scars of war. The flush in her cheeks remained a staple of her beauty.

'''Chrom, Newly Exalted & Olivia, Shrinking Violet'''<br>

After Grima's defeat, Chrom was officially welcomed as Ylisse's new exalt. Queen Olivia gave him a much-needed shoulder to lean on as she traveled the land, dancing and mending the scars of war.

'''Robin, High Deliverer & Olivia, Shrinking Violet'''<br>

Many wrote of Robin's legendary exploits, but accounts of his origins and character varied. Scholars, poets, and bards agreed on one thing alone—he loved his wife, Olivia, above all else.

'''Frederick, Cold Lieutenant & Olivia, Shrinking Violet'''<br>

As Ylisse's new knight captain, Frederick took charge of keeping the peace and training new recruits. His wife Olivia's dances were said to keep his resolve strong and open the minds of his charges.

'''Virion, Archest Archer & Olivia, Shrinking Violet'''<br>

Virion returned home to Rosanne, where he was labeled a traitor and a coward, or else ignored entirely. Over time, however, Olivia's dancing managed to bring him back into the populace's favor.

'''Stahl, Viridian Knight & Olivia, Shrinking Violet'''<br>

Stahl continued his service as an Ylissean knight and led crucial missions across the realm. Olivia spent years trying to get her husband to pay attention, but the two still built a fine life together.

'''Vaike, Zero to Hero & Olivia, Shrinking Violet'''<br>

Vaike returned to the streets that raised him and was welcomed as a hero and brother to all. Still, he was no match for his wife, Olivia, whose modest but mesmerizing dances made her more popular by far.

'''Kellam, Oft Forgotten & Olivia, Shrinking Violet'''<br>

Though she never overcame her stage fright, Olivia danced across the land, mending the scars of war. Her husband's name has been lost to history.

Lon'qu returned to Regna Ferox and served as Basilio's right-hand man. When the West-Khan sent Olivia on errands across the globe, Lon'qu accompanied her without fail and ensured her safety.

'''Ricken, Upcoming Mage & Olivia, Shrinking Violet'''<br>

While continuing to study magic, Ricken realized how childish some of his actions had been. Thanks to Olivia's dances, however, the years hence were full of joy and laughter.

'''Gaius, Candy Stealer & Olivia, Shrinking Violet'''<br>

Gaius never lost his sweet tooth, though he ultimately returned to less savory enterprises. His wife, Olivia, wandered down more than one dark alley just to make sure he was safe and sound.

After the war, Gregor briefly sank into a life of excess, but when he saw his wife dancing in the streets at night to make ends meet, he resumed work as a sellsword. ...Olivia was most grateful.

'''Libra, Fetching Friar & Olivia, Shrinking Violet'''<br>

Many an unfortunate child found joy in the small orphanage Libra and his wife built after the war. The children especially loved Olivia's vibrant dances, which often filled them with glee.

'''Henry, Twisted Mind & Olivia, Shrinking Violet'''<br>

Henry settled down with Olivia and turned out to be a surprisingly good father. Their newborn son inherited both his father's grin and his mother's undying love for entertaining others.

'''Donnel, Village Hero & Olivia, Shrinking Violet'''<br>

Donnel returned to his tiny village and built a happy life with his mother and his wife, Olivia. Their forgotten hamlet glowed during festivals, when Olivia's dancing warmed more than any fire.
