Appearance and Character Edit

Standing at roughly 6'1, Olyvar has long and rather messy brown hair and beautiful sea-green eyes. He resembles his mother in both look and personality, making the young man quite the extrovert. A man who’s willing to give anyone smallfolk and noble alike the time of day, who loves nothing more than to partake in an interesting conversation.

But it must be said that Olyvar has quite the temper. And he enjoys fighting more than most men. Though he never actively seeks it out, but should one find him, Olyvar will gladly draw his sword.

Despite his willingness to fight, Olyvar does strive kind young man. Such as his brother before him were. However, Olyvar does tend to find himself being steered by his vices at times. Much of which has gotten him into trouble through his youth and with his beloved wife Lady Megan Crakehall.

History Edit

Born in 76 AC to Lord Arthur Oakheart of Old Oak and his beloved Lady Catelyn Peake, Olyvar was their fourth child. As a child it was rather obvious that the young Olyvar was more attached to his mother than his father, leaving Lord Arthur to somewhat distance himself from the child. It wasn’t until Olyvar began to show a natural skill in swordsmanship as a young boy that he caught his father’s attention. And that only made the boy push himself further in an effort to please the father who seemed to love his brothers more.

By the time Olyvar was ten he was able to go toe to toe with his elder brother Alyn and Leo. While his eldest Alester seemed to always have a way to one-up him. His talent often led his brothers to either pick on the smaller boy or try to make him look incompetent in front of their father.Often it didn’t work, but as years went by and Olyvar became a teenager, he found himself becoming more troublesome.

Yet he was still by far the best swordsmen and the most outgoing on the Oakheart boys. That all changed however when Olyvar became seventeen. In 93 AC, Lord Gwayne Tyrell and Lord Tytos Lannister met in Old Oak where hosted by Lord Arthur Oakheart. It was rather obvious to the Oakhearts that soon they’d be marching for war. And the young Olyvar was eager to finally prove his worth in battle.

Little did he know that before the war his father would arrange a marriage between Olyvar and the young Megan Crakehall. And wed they did, merely days before the young man rode off to war. One which was bloody and forever etched into his memory.

Though unlike many other Houses, the Oakhearts lost no sons, fathers or uncles. All they lost were coin and the lives of their soldiers, and in the mind of Olyvar, respect both for Lord Tyrell but also for the Houses who stayed out of the war.

Not too long after returning home, Olyvar left to live in King’s Landing. For years he traveled back and forth with his wife until the disappearance of his brother Leo at sea. Shortly after Olyvar returned home where he's stayed ever since.
