Otto Octavius

Doctor Otto Gunther Octavius is a nuclear scientist and inventor of a set of mechanical limbs to help his experiments. Unfortunately, Octavius suffered from irreversible brain damage and the tentacles corrupted his brain. Nicknamed Doctor Octopus or simply Doc Ock, he is known as one of Spider-Man's main rogues and the founder of the Sinister Six. 
== Biography ==
=== Early Life ===
Otto Octavius was a brilliant scientist who worked towards researching and building a sustainable fusion power reactor. During his career, he became acquainted with Norman Osborn, the founder and CEO of Oscorp, who funded his work via his company, although Octavius deep down considered Osborn, greedy and misguided. 
=== Confronting Spider-Man ===
==== Sinister Six ====
== Personality ==
As Doctor Octopus, Octavius was bitter, hostile and paranoid, with a stubborn temper that was difficult to reason with, due to being under the thrall of his tentacles, which has led him to become grumpy and miserable. Also, Octavius was unsure of trusting others and regularly complain about everything. In addition, Octavius didn't hesitate in hurting or putting people endanger, even those who were bystanders. 
== Powers and Abilities ==
=== Powers ===
* Cybernetic Enhancement: Octavius created a set of long, mechanical limbs that attach to his back, each equipped with a red camera lens and three claw-like grips.
** Superhuman Strength: Each tentacle has superhuman strength, which allows Octavius to easily overpower humans, rip metal objects, plow through concrete and lift cars, allowing him to be a match for Spider-Man. 
** Superhuman Durability: The tentacles are considerably durable and resistant to heat and magnetism. 
** Superhuman Agility: The tentacles were designed with the precision and accuracy necessary to maintain a fusion reaction, with a reach of up to thirteen feet and the ability to move both quickly and precisely to reach a target.
** Superhuman Reflexes: Like an octopus' tentacles, the arms' AI relies on "distributed processing," which allows them to react to stimuli before Octavius has time to react and act independently of Octavius to warn him of danger or shield him from imminent threats. This allows Octavius to be saved from extremely high falls, and shielded from dangerous oncoming objects such as Spider-Man’s webs.
** Wallcrawling: The arms are powerful enough to allow him to walk up sheer concrete walls and move about quickly by grappling a wall's surface. 
** Tentacle Manipulation: Doctor Octopus is able to use his mechanical arms to protect himself from anything and the tentacles are able to fight Spider-Man.
=== Abilities ===
* Genius-Level Intellect: Octavius is a genius in the field of nuclear physics and has skill in robotics and computer programming.
* Master Scientist: Octavius has a PhD in Nuclear Physics and devoted his life to the study of fusion.
* Master Engineer: Octavius created both a powerful fusion reactor and his signature tentacles with independent artificial intelligence, controlled via nanowires connected to the cerebellum.
* Expert Tactician: Octavius is a skilled tactician; when given a singular goal, he devotes his whole attention it, creating complex plans in service to those goals. 
* Expert Combatant: The arms' strength and agility combined with Octavius's intelligence create a formidable foe. Octavius can engage a single opponent, like Spider-Man,

== Trivia ==
* In the comics, Otto Octavius was an MIT graduate who suffered from guilt after the death of his mother. Having created four mechanical limbs, he caused a lab accident which left him with permanent brain damage, turning him into the criminal Doctor Octopus. Octavius was also the founder of Spider-Man's recurrent group of enemies, the Sinister Six alongside Vulture, Mysterio, Sandman, and Electro. In a later arc, Octavius successfully takes over Spider-Man's body but would be inspired to strive to become a better hero than Spider-Man ever was, becoming known as the Superior Spider-Man and later Superior Octopus.
