Appearance[]
In the past, Olka was a fair-skinned woman with long black hair, usually tied up with a ponytail. As "Shaty Gray", Olka has short and messy blond hair as well as glasses. She's usually seen with fancy clothes and jewelry. While being escorted by Yor through the ship, she dows a black wig with a ponytail.
Personality[]
Despite coming from a crime family, Olka is shown to be a very kind and compassionate woman. Ever since she was a child, she was extremely empathetic and would often help those in need, exemplified by one time she fed a poor Zeb a bread, which led to the two becoming friends for life. Despite this, Olka seems oblivious of his obvious crush on her.
Upon meeting Yor, she acted very soft-spoken and professional towards her, but gradually mellowed out towards the assassin, willing to open up about her feelings to her. Olka is also very protective of her son, Gram and thus, empathizes with Yor's love for her family, sending her thoughts and prayers.
Biography[]
Background[]
A young Olka meets Zeb.
Olka was one of the daughters of the Gretcher Family, who ruled the Ostanian criminal underworld. Despite this, they were extremely honorable and often helped those in need. One time, the Gretcher Family organized a black market of food for the people in the streets, victims of the war. During this occasion, a young Olka met a poor kid named Zeb, offering him a piece of bread, an event that would spark a lifelong friendship. Zeb was eternally grateful for Olka and even developed a crush on her, but never confessed to her, as Olka would at some point get married and have a child named Gram, after her father.
After an internal conflict caused the deaths of all the Gretcher family members, including Olka's father, her two brothers and her husband, Leonardo Hapoon took over the criminal organization and placed a bounty on Olka's head as she was the last surviving gretcher, which made her a prime target for assassins. With the help of her friend Zeb, Olka decided to go into political hiding, boarding the Princess Lorelei cruise under the new names, Shaty and Furseal Grey. In the meantime, she also hired the Ostanian assassin organization known as "The Garden" to escort her into safety.

On the second day, Olka and the others wait in the room until they get a call from Matthew. Yor answers the phone and informs the others that they got the all-ready signal from the ship at the rendezvous. While it will be in four hours, Yor tells Olka and Zeb to prepare and change into their disguises. After seeing that the coast is clear, Yor, Olka, Gram, and Zeb head out.
As the fireworks show is about to commence, the group walks through the ship's halls to get to Storage Area 3, where Olka will depart from the boat and to the rendezvous ship, hoping to proceed under the cover of the fireworks. As the show starts, the group is startled by the sudden noise and Gram starts to cry, so Olka coos her baby telling him how beautiful the fireworks are. After calming down, they continue onward. From above, a sniper watches them and prepares to shoot Olka as another firework goes off. Yor quickly grabs Olka out of the way but gets grazed by the shot. After fending off another assassin, Yor asks Olka and the others if they are alright. Suddenly, a large number of assassins reveal themselves and surround the group.
As assassins surround them, the group is saved by Matthew's arrival, who obtains a sniper and begins killing their foes. He shoots open a nearby hatch, which Yor orders the others to hide inside. However, while Yor gets held back by interferences from other assassins, Olka, Gram, and Zeb are confronted by an assassin aiming his gun at them. Zeb quickly grabs Olka and shields her from the bullets fired. As they tumble inside the hatch, Zeb shuts the cover. Olka worriedly asks Zeb if he is okay, but he reveals that he wore a bulletproof vest and complains about the pain, prompting Olka to scold him for being so reckless.
After Yor and Matthew exterminate all the enemy assassins, Olka and Zeb are retrieved from the hatch and head to the storage area, where Yor and Matthew prepare the inflatable boat for them. While Matthew gives Zeb instructions, Yor wishes Olka a great life on the other side and receives a hug as a thanks. Despite Yor's protests because of her soiled hands, Olka has her hug Gram, saying that her hands are the reason he has a future. Yor appreciates the gesture and embraces the child, remarking how warm he is. Before leaving, Olka says she will pray for Yor and her family to find peace and happiness.
