Appearance[edit | edit source]

She has light brown eyes.[2]

Personality[edit | edit source]

Octavia is enthusiastic to the point of hyperactivity. A fast talker, her favorite sales method is to bombard her customers with convoluted pitches and hyping up her potions. She is pushy in both her business and every-day interactions with others. Octavia can be greedy when it comes to gold or acquiring magical ingredients, which she doesn't try very hard to hide. Her motivations are usually profit-based, willing to do almost anything as long as it makes her money or personally benefits her. However, as of late, after nearly alienated or annoyed most of her friends away Octavia has tamped down on her pushiness and greed,. She has also become more generous, once giving free potions to Ryoka Griffin, compared to before her first instinct was to offer to sell a healing potion to Pisces Jealnet for his bleeding nose when she was responsible for said bleeding nose.[3] She is also brave, willing to join the search for Mrsha du Marquin out of concern when the Gnoll was kidnapped.[4]

She is highly driven and determined to succeed in her craft, often working long hours in her shop, and forgetting to sleep or eat.
