**Octus the Conqueror** was the main antagonist of Gravity Star, a human and former leader from the fallen world of Martyros who planned to resurrect his fallen nation and restore it to greatness, including its greatest weapon. He piloted the Centurion, a colossal mech made from the body of the planet Boreo.

## Personality

Octus was a cold, remorseless, calculated leader, capable of doing whatever it takes to achieve his goals. He viewed Martyros as the greatest empire this galaxy had ever known.

## History

### Gravity Star Campaign

Octus was first seen when he sent a broadcast to Gravity Star's Earth base in Houston, a prerecorded message telling them that he has dozens more Harvesters across the galaxy and warning them to stay out of his way.

When Lieutenant Zola broke into Martyros' comms network, he found out that Octus was searching for a double-agent by the name of Percival Mason.

When the team collected Albus' data, they found that Octus planned to reunite the rest of his Council, starting with the Titan on Granaera, and then take back what Martyros deserves. He was unsuccessful when it came to recollecting the Titan, the Paralyzer that he sent to capture her being killed by the team. He sent his propaganda officer, the Puppetmaster, to the planet of Penumbros to amass an army of demons, but this too was unsuccessful, again being foiled by the team and 014.

Octus was reported to have activity spotted on Varuna, wherein he tried to convince one of the local tourney champs and overall great warrior Marin to join him as his general, which was foiled by the party. This didn't entirely fail, as Marin was dissuaded from joining either side.

After he sent the Annihilator to Earth to wipe out Gravity Star's presence on the planet, he gave the team a threatening message, after which being called a "milk baby" by 086. He was aggravated by this, though not visually, remarking that he isn't a milk baby before hanging up.

Octus soon was confronted in his tower on Martyros II, the second generation of Martyros made from the husk of the planet Boreo, wherein he explained his history and his motives before armoring up and engaging in an honorable duel with Gravity Star, giving his all and attacking both a child and a pregnant woman during the encounter. After he sustained enough damage, he lurched over and coughed before activating Centurion protocol. He used the Centurion in a last-ditch effort to defeat Gravity Star and used the mech to tear a hole in the fabric of reality and bring back the Exalted. They swarmed the Centurion almost immeediately, forcing him to eject as his planet died once again in front of him. He surrendered to Gravity Star, realizing that he had been blind to the true nature of why Martyros was abandoned, and allowed them to choose his fate. Dewey then shoved one of Sister Elina's prayer seeds down his throat, killing him instantly as an ivory tree grew out of him, splaying chunks of his body everywhere. Gary gathered the pieces and stitched them back up to resurrect him, leaving him in even more agony, before 086 mercy-killed him with a shot to the head.
