What application did you meant?
All of applications (Writer, Calc, etc...) have Default templates. These applications contains Default Styles (Writer: Character styles, Paragraph styles ...; Calc: Cell styles... etc...)
You must modify and organize these Templates: (save them after the modification, and set them as Default Templates)

How do I find the default template settings?
You can find them in the default template: in every new, empty, unnamed document, what was created by the File - New menu item (based on the Default template).
Just modify the properties of the relevant styles in that new "file", and then save it as a Template (into .ott, .ots file format instead of the .odt, .ods).
Finally organize the file as a new Default template. Please read theese topics:
