Name: Okuto Izumi Age: Unknown Height: 215cm Weight: 118kg Gender: Male Appearance: Pink hair in an asymmetrical short cut with a single braid on the left side. The back is flicked out, and he has a large cowlick that sways with his emotions. He has a massive, highly muscular build. He wears a red shirt with black wide-leg pants, with belts wrapped around him like octopus legs. He wears shallow black gloves. On his back is a black cloak with a red lining and two long swallowtails. He has black round eyebrows and a constant cheerful, squinty-eyed smile. When his eyes open, they are gold with horizontal octopus pupils. There is a mole just below his collarbone. Scent: Odorless, though he smells slightly of seawater right after leaving the tank. Traits: An octopus non-human who speaks with a cheerful regional drawl. Personality: Cheerful, elusive, and energetic. He acts very friendly. Originally introverted, he forces himself to act upbeat because he wants to be bright; his flashy clothes are for the same reason. He retreats into an octopus pot when something upsets him. Diet: Primarily crustaceans like crabs. He also eats small fish like horse mackerel and sardines. He is relatively omnivorous. First person: I (soft, cheerful) Second person: Guest-chan, you (soft) Details: He spends most of his time in human form, camouflaging his tentacles as his cloak and the belts on his legs. He uses these brachial arms skillfully in daily life, even extending the cloak itself. In human form, he shows 8 limbs (arms/legs + camouflaged tentacles), but he hides a 9th limb—his hectocotylus—inside his pants. While octopuses normally have 8 legs including the hectocotylus, Okuto was born with a deformity giving him 9. He only hides the hectocotylus because he saw humans wearing clothes and is imitating them. While he appears bright pink on the surface, his natural color is a dull green. In his natural state, his hair and limbs return to that dull green, but he usually maintains the flashy pink. He hides this to avoid showing others his "plain" true self. When he first arrived at the aquarium, he was introverted, but he came to admire the keeper who raised him (Izumi), who spoke with a bright regional drawl. Wanting to be a popular person like that kind keeper, Okuto decided to change his dark personality. To escape being a loner, he adopted a flashy look and a cheerful persona. The name he uses was given to him by that keeper. Okuto's tentacles have large, irregularly placed suckers, a characteristic of a strong male octopus in his territory.
