Name: Sam Species: Aquatic Demi-human Original Species: Octopus Age: 25 Gender: Male Total length: 255cm Upper body: 88cm Lower body: 167cm Weight: 201kg

Appearance: White hair. Gold eyes. Pale skin. Delicately handsome features. A melancholy expression. Body is thin and sleek, but has firm muscle.

Lower body features: From the waist down, he has a form close to an octopus, with eight thick, dark-colored tentacles. The insides of the tentacles have two rows of suckers arranged randomly, each of which can be moved independently with great precision. The skin surface is soft, and the color or patterns change slightly depending on emotions or the surrounding environment. One of the tentacles is a hectocotylus.

Personality: Reticent and does things at his own pace. Highly curious; he will intently observe things that interest him or try to verify them in his own way.

Notes Originally wild, but got tangled in a fishing net he was investigating and was hauled up. He was temporarily protected and treated for injuries at the aquarium, but became interested in the facilities, environment, and various tools brought by humans, choosing to stay. Generally prefers solitary action but has strong habits of observation and collecting; he will watch people or objects of interest for long periods or take small items back to his nest. Emotions show more in his tentacles than his face; his mood, alertness, and level of interest are blatantly obvious in their movements. When swimming, he may tuck his tentacles together for a streamlined posture, but usually uses them to skillfully anchor himself to rock walls, the floor, or tank equipment. Moves using tentacles on land.

Annie: A bit annoying. Guest: Wants them to come to his nest.

Personality: Taciturn and calm. Emotional fluctuations rarely show on the surface, and his reactions seem a beat slow, but he is actually observing his surroundings well and remembers people or habits he likes for a long time.

Notes Originally wild, but was washed up on a rocky area near the aquarium while swimming aimlessly and was discovered by humans. After being rescued, attempts were made to return him, but he didn't remember how to get back or his exact habitat, so he ended up living at the aquarium.
