OVERALL PERSONALITY: Driven
Sarah is a loner and dedicates almost all of her time to her work. She has a strong sense of justice, which drives her to solve a case by any means necessary. She’s prone to biting off more than she can chew when it comes to pursuing suspects.
Caring
Despite her difficulties, Sarah very kind. She was raised with “Southern Hospitality” and calls authority figures “Sir" and “Ma’am.” She keeps to herself and it takes awhile for her to warm up to someone. But if you hurt anyone, be prepared for a vengeful ball of fire. Sarah won’t stop until you pay, even more so if it's a person she cares about. She’s less vindictive with people she knows, but she won’t fully trust you again.
Protective
Sarah is courageous and very selfless, willing to give up her own life to make sure that others were safe. Olivia is experiencing difficulties in accepting Roger's death and her survivor's guilt. She would have done anything to trade places with him, and she blames herself for not keeping a better eye on him. On the flip side, Sarah doesn’t fear death. She knows it’s only then she can be reunited with Roger. Such thinking makes her reckless, jumping into danger feet first.
Obsessive
Once she latches onto something she never lets go. Maybe that’s another reason as to what made her a great detective, but that’s also what’s broken her. If someone dies she won’t stop blaming herself and will get revenge at any cost. It’s landed her in hot water with her superiors once, and they’ve held it above her head ever since. The time she got too close to a case.
Scared
She puts on a front of toughness, and she’s scared that she’ll form an attachment and then something will happen to sever that. Her track record of relationships has proved this. It’s one of the reasons she kept running away. She didn’t want to give the family the chance to abandon her. To be frank she has trust issues, and doesn't give it out easily. She was raised Catholic and believes in God, always keeping her gold cross on. It serves as both a source of comfort and strength.

OVERALL HISTORY:
raised on promises
Sarah was born into an honest, hard-working family in West Virginia. They never begged for anything, instilling the value of hard work into their only child. Her father was an officer. Sarah idolized her father. He was the protector of the town, the hero that came to the rescue. The good guy that always won. And she wanted to be just like him, much to her mother’s chagrin. Her mother worked as a nurse in one of the larger towns; she’d seen what bullets and explosions could do to a person. But there was no stopping Sarah. They went to church every Sunday and Sarah’s life was pretty much normal. As she grew older, she became eager to escape the small town and the mentality it entailed. But when she was 10 years old, her father died. Shot in the line duty, trying to stop these two kids from stealing a car. There was nothing Sarah or her mother could do.
She became a different person after that, slipping out of Sarah’s life like she was never there. First it was the crying in her bedroom and then she just ignored her. Sarah tried to make her happy, but it was no use. Her mother turned to drinking after awhile and Social Services came. At first Sarah refused to go with them, but in the end she didn't have a choice. Moved from foster home to foster home, Olivia kept running away. It wasn’t until she was 14 when her aunt and uncle from her mother’s side came out of the woodwork. They had assumed that Sarah was living happily with her mother, but they’d been wrong. Her aunt and uncle took her to to their home in Baltimore and Sarah was glad to be out the system, albeit with people she’d met only once or twice.
She couldn't help thinkin'
That there was a little more to life somewhere else
When high school rolled around, Sarah was somewhere in the middle. Not popular, but not a loner either. She excelled in sports, eventually joining a track and field team. The rest of high school was a blur of homework, meeting with friends, and going to competitions with her team. She still hadn’t wavered from wanting to be an officer, and she spent more time at the station then she did at home. At her graduation Sarah could swear she saw her father sitting in the audience.
After all it was a great big world
With lots of places to run to
She went to college at University of Maryland, taking Criminology and Criminal Justice. She signed up with the police academy, where she barley squeaked by the physical tests. She had her eyes set on becoming to a homicide detective one day. Everyone assumed she would take her father’s place in Fairfax, but she went to work for the Baltimore PD at the age of 21. For 3 years Sarah was a proud member of the police department, never shying away from bigger cases. There was one case that broke her, though. It landed her in hot water with her superiors, and they’ve held it above her head ever since. The time she got too close to a case. It involved a child, and she became too ‘emotionally invested’. She spent a month in the psych ward for it. Sarah refuses to speak about it, and after that, she worked even harder. Everything was going well, until a drug raid went south.
And if she had to die tryin'
She had one little promise she was gonna keep
She and her partner, Roger, were on foot, chasing down a suspect who had fled the building. But there something...odd about the suspect. Sarah couldn’t put her finger on it. The man went to shoot Sarah, but Roger took the shot instead. It was a through and through, and it’s final resting place was in Sarah’s shoulder. The drug dealer got away while Sarah desperately tried to save him. Despite Sarah’s efforts, Roger died of his wound several days later at the hospital. She was given a few months off to heal and process her grief. Sarah also dug deeper into the suspect’s strange behavior, eventually coming across the world the supernatural and hunting. She’s been detective for 5 years now, and she’s recovered for the most part, both from Roger’s death and the case. Sarah is what you’d call a ‘part time’ hunter, hunting during cases or during her free time.
With every case, something inside her sparks, and she does everything in her power to solve it. That spark grows into an obsession, and that obsession only grows with the body count. There were and still days where she goes for days without caring for herself, wearing a hole in the carpet as she paces, staring the board until her eyes hurt. She searches, following every lead until they become dead ends. Notes criss cross with strings and tacks, trying to make connections when there were none. Despite all of her work, the killer sometimes slips through the cracks. But she don’t give up. They’re calling out for justice beyond the grave and I don’t stop until the case is solved.[/ul]
