AppearanceOctavia is a fair-skinned petite and youthful woman in the latter half of her twenties. Her face is small and round which her sister often compares to that of a hamster. Blue-framed half-moon glasses cover her gold eyes. Octavia puts a lot of value in appearances and starts every day with a tasteful amount of makeup. PersonalityOctavia is an earnest and optimistic woman who wants to leave an impression on everyone she cares about. She has a great interest in different cultures and traditions and tends to approach conversations as if other people’s interests were just as grand as hers. She tries to avoid any semblance of physical conflict and looks to mediate arguments, although she often cannot see the bigger picture. She also tends to lose confidence if she cannot guarantee the success or if she cannot do anything to amend the odds.
BackstoryOctavia is the younger half-sister of Andrea. Loved and coddled by her parents, Octavia grew up to me empathetic and kind person who tries to see good despite the flaws and confidently bets on her optimistic approach to life. Before she turned ten, Octavia discovered that she was a Mute – a person incapable of utilizing or feeling magic in any way. This, however, did not distraught her and instead motivated her to focus on her education.
She idolized her father, the Overseer, and she desired to be useful to him as a part of his inner circle that oversaw the inner workings of the Enclave. She excelled in her studies, and at age of 19 would leave to study foreign relations and economics in Osaka. There she met and fell in love with a fellow student Ayane, whom she would bring back as a personal bodyguard and the two started a secret relationship.
Octavia became a well-known person in Kilak. Always the face of the party, representing the interests of the Overseer, she had pushed for reformation of education in the enclave. She continues to thrive in the politics and life of Kilak, genuinely hoping to improve everyone’s lives – her sister included. |
