Olive Ruskettle

Olive Ruskettle was a halfling thief who always aspired to a life of entertaining people and the easy living that profession could bring.

History
Her true name was unknown. She won the name and reputation of Olav Ruskettle, a true and famous bard, in a dice game. Since then Olive did her best to maintain her image as a bard of great talent. Over the years she has been cornered by well-traveled folks who claim to have seen the 'real' Olav Ruskettle perform, each time she managed to lie her way out of the confrontation.

Ruskettle was unique even among halflings, due to her height of less than three feet. Simply by putting on a pair of shoes, she could be mistaken for a human toddler. Unknown even to her at the time, Olive became a Harper when Finder gave her his harper pin in the presence of Elminster Aumar.
