Height: 169cm (5.5ft)

Appearance:


Personality: Dedoct0 is a strange being. She remembers no name, only carries her DJ name of Dedoct0. She is stuck in a weird state of her mind being somewhat alive, but her body being dead. Her face is expressionless, reflecting her lack of emotions. It makes it harder for others to guess what she may be thinking or experiencing behind her glasses. She feels no joy, no sadness, no nervousness. That may make her seem like she is insensitive in some cases, but she can't really help it. However, Dedoct0 still has a few personality traits, despite her lack of emotions and aliveness. She is drawn towards music, any and all kinds of it. It is that passion that kept her going through the endeavours she had to endure. Along with this passion, goes a pinch of perfectionism. The music she produces has to be pitch perfect. Not a single tone amiss, as that would ruin the whole song. Her mind is usually filled with tunes and melodies and her head often bobs in a silent rhythm.


History: Once a upon time, Dedoct0 used to be a regular Octoling with a love for music. She strived to be the best DJ out there, until her wish for perfection got twisted and her mind completely brainwashed after she got kidnapped. She lost her free will, but her musical skills saved her from complete mental oblivion. Later on she was captured by an another group, who then experimented on her, but they managed to bring back her free will. The rest of her, however, was beyond their power to repair. She remembers only the tiniest of fragments during those times. She has no idea what exactly happened to her and why that even happened to her in the first place. But after her free will returned, she asked to be let go and the mysterious group surprisingly obliged. It was sort of a short-sighted decision, though, as she had nowhere to go. Thus, she gave herself a new DJ name of Dedoct0, with which she slowly and painfully rose up the DJ ranks. She started by aimlessly visiting shops with musical instruments and played on the displayed ones, catching eyes of some of the vendors. With nowhere to stay, she was living on the streets, until a nightclub decided to let her sleep in their spare janitor room, after she made a bit of a name for herself with the help of some aforementioned shops. Thankfully, her zombie-like body requires only water to function, so she never had to eat, which helped her out a lot, in the long run. Her life took an another spin, after she received an invitation from the one and only Academy to teach the ways of her music. Dedoct0 had no real reason to decline such an offer, so she accepted it, but still can be found in various bars and nightclubs during the night, proving them with music.




Name of Species: Sanitized Octoling

Baseline Dimension:
Pretty much similar to a regular human.

Baseline Appearance:
They have humanoid body, but instead of hair they have octopus tentacles of varying hues. Their skin is of sickly green colour, which reflects the fact that they are effectively dead.

Culture/Origin of Species:
Octolings have evolved over time from octopuses that have reached the land and eventually morphed into humanoids to accomodate to the new environment. Sanitized Octolings are Octolings that have been brainwashed by an unknown group or individual, for also unknown purposes. It is said that these horrible acts take place deep underground. However, the precise place is likewise unknown. The brainwashing process itself leaves Octolings in a zombie-like state with their bodies effectively being dead - such as being sickly green in colour and having no pulse - and with no free will of their own. They obey whoever has changed them, with no questions asked. The process also removes any kind of feeling from them, turning them into senseless Octolings. A great number of them are never see the sun again, with extremely few exceptions. And even in those exceptions, the probability of death is very high.

Traits:

• Sanitized Octolings have no pulse, which makes them resistant to techniques that are dependent on detection of life.
• Even in their brainwashed state, they are still able to shapeshift into their octopus forms at will.
• The lack of their emotions makes them ideal for asking a brutally honest opinion.
• Their zombie-like state of body only needs to run on water, no food is needed to sustain them.

Flaws:

• If a Sanitized Octoling still has no free will, they more susceptible to mind-control techniques.
• Their skin colour may be quite off-putting to more conservative individuals.
• A Sanitized Octoling that has no free will is unable to form any coherent speech, unless ordered by their creator.
