Backstory: Her parents had wished for a little boy named Oliver. What they recieved instead was Olivia.

Her father perished in the struggle against the fiendish nation that borders their city and neither of her parents would tell her the tale of how she came to be conceived or how her mother lost her legs and sight.

Their family comes from a long line of Crusaders and there was a tradition that when a fiendish bastard be born that it take a surname such as "Wormwood" or "Abbadon" to signal to others the taint in their blood. Olivia didn't need that. With her purplish skin, tail and hooked horns there was never any question about where she had come from. Still her parents treated her like their own and after her father died behind enemy lines and her mother passed from old age, she took it upon herself to take on the name Wormwood as a badge of honor.

She would redeem herself and see a great stride made against the nation that stole her mother's eyes and father's life. Her parents were both worshipers of Sarenrae and she strongly believed that there was redemption to be sought for her own fiendish blood and the horrors done in the name of the Crusade.

She spent time in the temple of her Goddess praying and meditating on peace, forgiveness and steeling herself against the dangers she might face. She hardened her body with training and avoided strong drink and unhealthy foods.

And when she felt the time had come and the Goddess was calling to her, she let the temple to await the coming Crusade.
