UPDATED Octavious character sheet and lore!!!!!
I decided to remake my octavious backstory because I didn’t like it then and I don’t like it now so here
Blackjack created by @hubedihubbe
Backstory:
Octavious was born via surrogate because he biological mother couldn’t give birth, but unfortunately his biological mother died before the birth and his biological father didn’t want a child, so the surrogate took him in, the woman who was the surrogate wasn’t a good person however and manipulated octavious from a young age, she would also do the bare minimum of child care and basically made octavious feel like he wasn’t worth anything more, the reason she kept octavious was because she wanted him to be her servant when he was old enough.
When octavious became a teen he became a little rebellious and didn’t want to be treated this way(understandably) so the woman sold him to an illegal rodeo that used centaurs in there acts.
Octavious would basically be treated like a calf would be treated in rodeo, he was roped, Wrestled,beaten to the ground,zapped with prods, etc, but that wasn’t all of it, if he didn’t preform well enough for their liking they would beat him for it, he would get scars from these beatings, the most noticeable ones where on his face, one on the right cheek and another between his eyes above his nose, one night the crowd got so rowdy that they started to shoot fire works into the arena and one hit octavious on the leg, nobody did anything about for what felt like hours, and when they did they beat octavious damaging his leg further
The next day someone tipped off the police that a illegal rodeo was going on and later that night the whole thing would be busted, but the damage was already done,octavious had spent almost 2 weeks there, and to make things worse he was thrown into a smelly trailer and locked in, but he doesn’t remember much about it, all he remembers is a woman being stuck in there with him.
After the whole thing was busted and octavious liberated, he was rushed to a hospital, he doesn’t remember much about arriving at the hospital because he went in and out of consciousness,. When he woke up he was horrified to see that his front right leg was gone, they told him that his Leg had sustained to much damage to be saved, octavious didn’t know what to think, it was just so hard to get his thoughts together.
He also was dealing with this woman who called herself blackjack, she supposedly been in that trailer with him and all she wanted was to make sure he was ok, but something about her just made him feel safe and cared for, when he was checked out of the hospital he was taken in by a man named odd, while being there, blackjack would visit, but only because octavious wanted her to, he was scared and she was the closest thing to a protector he had, while staying there octavious and blackjack would form a bond, and on his birthday blackjack adopted him.
Ever since then the two have lived together, blackjack does her darn best to take care of octavious and give him a safe place to call home.
