Olivia-G291, born Olivia Tut,[1] nicknamed "O"[5] or 'Livi,[6] is a SPARTAN-III supersoldier of Gamma Company. Originally assigned to Team Saber, one of the leading squads in Gamma Company,[5] she served as part of Blue Team following the Onyx Conflict.[7] After Operation: JOVIAN WHISTLE in July 2553, Olivia was assigned to an Office of Naval Intelligence Ferret Team led by Veta Lopis along with fellow Gamma Spartans Ash-G099 and Mark-G313, serving as the team's information specialist.[8]
Biography[edit]
Conscription[edit]
Olivia Tut was born on the human Inner Colony of Miridem on September 26, 2538.[1] She became orphaned at a young age, likely when Miridem was glassed in 2544.[9] Olivia later joined SPARTAN-III Gamma Company at around age six when she,[10] along with other orphans, "volunteered" to become Spartans to avenge their families' deaths. She and the other Spartan-III candidates were trained under Senior Chief Petty Officer Mendez, surviving Beta Company SPARTAN-IIIs Lucy-B091 and Tom-B292, and SPARTAN-II Lieutenant Commander Kurt Ambrose at Camp Currahee on the planet Onyx. Olivia was assigned to Team Saber under the command of Ash-G099.
Onyx Conflict[edit]
Initial attack[edit]
When the human forces on Onyx came under attack by Sentinels on October 31, 2552, the teams were still vying for top honors. Team Saber went dangerously close to the restricted Zone 67 to avoid the other teams during a training exercise. There they spied what they assumed at the time to be a new kind of Covenant drone, based on its energy shielding, and decided to investigate. The Sentinels quickly turned hostile, forcing the exercise to come to an abrupt halt.[5]
Olivia remained with the team as they tried to figure out the drones' weak spots. She and the rest of the team hurled rocks at the drones and to their surprise, the drone's shields did not activate. One of the Sentinels chased Ash into a small ravine, but he was saved by the rest of the team, who pummeled the Sentinel with rocks, destroying it just in time.[11]
Regrouping with UNSC forces[edit]
A general decision was made and the Team moved to the Camp Currahee armory to obtain heavier weapons. Team Saber met up with Commander Ambrose, CPO Mendez, Tom, and Lucy, and proceeded to engage the Sentinels with guerrilla tactics. Some time later, Olivia and the team met up with Kelly-087 and Dr. Catherine Halsey but had no time for pleasantries because they were soon engaged by a pair of Sentinels. After the skirmish was over, the team took Dr. Halsey and Kelly to a bombed-out bunker, while Olivia went out on watch. While in the bunker, Dr. Halsey revealed the origin of the Sentinels and what their next action should be.[12][13][14]
Just as Team Saber was in the middle of battling the Sentinels, a Covenant dropship from the Bloodied Spirit, carrying SPARTAN-II Blue Team—Frederic-104, Linda-058, and William-043—landed rather abruptly in the forest at the source of an emergency transmission sent out by the UNSC forces on Onyx.[15] With the Sentinels increasing in number, Olivia and the others decided to retreat back to Zone 67. By now, the team had figured out that the Sentinels only come after them in pairs and there was always one observer that recorded all of the action and reported back to others, making the Sentinels smarter and harder to defeat each time they engaged in combat with the humans.[16] Using Kelly as bait, they managed to trap a Sentinel pair in a tunnel, thereby buying themselves some time.[17]
Retreat into Zone 67[edit]
Shortly thereafter, they moved into Zone 67 and discovered an unearthed Forerunner city. Once there, they discovered the map room of Onyx and the location of Team Katana,[18] whose signal Olivia had picked up earlier b
