Jay Octavio

We never thought we'd learn about such a tragic, but rich backstory from this poor little prince who happens to be the surviving grandson of Octavio himself.

As his story goes...he was born in Octo Valley to Octavia and Joseph, descendants of a magical octoling we've yet to find information about.

His birth makes him the next of the Octavio bloodline after her mother Octavia. However, their lives have been plagued of ideological disagreements between Octavio and his parents for years...until after he turned 5.

And in that one day, they deserted the empire and ran away. However, their parents soon found out that he had powers...so they took care of him as best as they could while on the run from his grandfather's army.

But even they knew they couldn't escape forever.

Some time after his 13th birthday, Octavio had sent Trinity Octavia (his sister who remained loyal to Octavio) to capture him. She succeeded, and he was subsuquently brainwashed.

After being put through many painful tests, he was presented to the empire as their newest and most powerful super soldier. Luckily, he was never given the chance to demonstrate his full potential due to the intervention of the New Squidbeak Splatoon, composed of Captain Cuttlefish, Kari Aorika, Marie Kikuma and July (who they named Agent 3).

With their intervention, July went on to battle Octavio himself after destroying all of his Great Octoweapons. During the battle, Kari and Marie unleashed the Calamari Inkantation, freeing Jay, Marina Ida and many other Octarians from the mind control Octavio had imposed for nearly hundreds of years. He was then defeated and finished off by July.

This effectively brought down the Octarian Empire and caused many revolts around what was left of the fallen kingdom.

Jay and his parents were seemingly safe from that point and on...but little did they know that Octavio's legacy never died among some Octarians, who reformed into radical clans to hunt down the ones who deserted the empire and spread their essence throughout the world.

2 years later, a group of corrupt, racist and segregationist soldiers (along with a general we've yet to identify) formed an illegal armed group they named ''United States Army Forces in the Far East'' to exterminate all Octarians with the excuse of ''cleansing what remains of the Yakuza and the Octarian Empire's legacy''.

They manipulated the US government into helping them locate Jay and his family, and once they did...they captured them, tortured them but only managed to kill his parents before being rescued by the police.

However, they pinned the blame on a group of innocent octarians who deserted the empire and had nothing to do with the crime. They got captured, and the USAFIFE got away, unscathed.

Jay then lived on with despair and loneliness...as the past still haunts him to this day.

We are planning to secure him and his sister in separate homes. It would be a sin to just leave them to die.

He is a Violet Dumbo Octoling with tan skin, hipster hairstyle, octarian eyes with purple irises and black markings around his eyes.

According to what we've seen of his tastes and personality, we can confirm he has the exact characteristics of a transgender person. The TDC holds no grudge against any people part of the LGTBIQ+ community.
