Physical Description

Octavian is fairly tall and skinny with pale skin and messy white hair that constantly falls into his eyes. His hair is naturally black, but he dyed it white as an act of rebellion against his parents and has kept it that way ever since. He has light grey eyes and wears round glasses because his eyesight is poor, though he hates wearing them and often chooses not to. This usually means he spends most of his time seeing the world slightly out of focus.

Octavian Taylor
MENTAL DESCRIPTION

Octavian is intelligent,observant and usually calm under pressure.He is naturally a nervous person but has become very good at hiding it. He tries hard to be outgoing and friendly mostly because he spent so much of his childhood alone.

He is extremely nostalgic and tends to think about the past more than most people his age. While he can come across as distant or cold he is actually very loyal and caring toward the people and animals he loves. He often overthinks situations and prefers to keep his problems to himself rather than ask for help.

Animals have always been easier for him to understand than people.

BACKSTORY

Octavian Taylor grew up as an only child in a wealthy but emotionally distant household.His father Samuel Taylor worked as a model and spent most of his life traveling while his mother Lilith Taylor is a fashion designer who primarily lives and works in Paris. Because both of his parents were often busy with their own careers Octavian was raised more by a rotating cast of nannies,tutors and house staff than by his actual family.

When Octavian was younger he had a weak immune system and was frequently ill which gave his parents another reason to keep him isolated. He was rarely allowed outside and even simple things like visiting a park or meeting other children were treated as unnecessary risks. He spent much of his early childhood looking out through windows watching other people live lives that felt far away from him. Even after his health improved his parents never truly relaxed their rules and the habits of confinement remained long after the original reason for them had passed.

Because he was lonely Octavian became attached to small routines and quiet comforts. He learned to read early and devoured books about animals, history and places he had never been allowed to see. He also developed a habit of collecting little things that reminded him of moments he wanted to keep: feathers, pressed flowers, ticket stubs, smooth stones, and scraps of paper covered in notes. These became his way of holding onto the world when so much of it felt out of reach.

Most of the affection he received came from caretakers rather than his parents and even that was often practical rather than warm. He became very good at appearing agreeable even when he was unhappy because it was easier than arguing with adults who rarely listened.


As he got older Octavian began to resent how controlled his life was. He disliked being dressed, spoken for, and planned around as though he were another expensive possession in the house. Dyeing his naturally black hair white became one of the first choices he ever made entirely for himself and he did it partly out of rebellion and partly because he wanted to look like someone his parents would never have chosen. It was a small act but it made him feel like his own person for the first time.

Octavian Taylor
First Instance of Magic:

When he was nine years was when he first used magic. He had climbed a tree to rescue a baby bird that had fallen from its nest. On the way back down he slipped and fell. Instead of hitting the ground he suddenly stopped and slowly floated down safely. He ran back inside to tell his caretakers what had happened but none of them believed him.

Family



Octavian father


Samuel Ryan Taylor — Father
Samuel Ryan Taylor is a successful and well-respected model known for his polished appearance, calm demeanor, and ability to remain composed under pressure. As an only child, Samuel grew up in a family that placed a great deal of importance on reputation, achievement, and maintaining a respectable image. Despite his success, Samuel is a rather private person. He isn't naturally affectionate or openly emotional, and he often struggles to express how much he cares through words. Instead, he tends to show his love through practical thing.Samuel loves his son deeply, even if Octavian doesn't always feel it. He wants Octavian to be safe, successful, and prepared for the world, but he doesn't always understand that protecting Octavian from everything has also made it harder for him to experience the world for himself.


octavian mother

Lilith Maya Taylor is a highly successful fashion designer who works primarily in Paris. She is elegant, creative, ambitious, and has an unmistakable presence wherever she goes. Unlike Samuel, Lilith is much more expressive and outspoken, though her demanding career often keeps her away from home.
