Hey everyone! Welp I’ve been curious to create a new character now for a while, and I’ve always found octopi to be very fascinating. And now knowing that the sonic IDW comics have an octopus villain named Mimic, I couldn’t help but to give my hand a shot at creating an octopus boi. So please give a warm welcome to my newest member, Ross! He’s a good boy :3

Personality/Bio:
-Likes: Swimming, beaches, spring and summer, guitar playing, beanie hats, gaming, the ocean, scootering, rollerblading, hanging around at skateparks, graffiti art, solitude, going for rides, hanging with groups of friends rather than with just someone 1-on-1, board games and card games, loose and baggy clothing

-Dislikes: Winter, situations resulting in his arms getting tangled up or stuck, having to squeeze/crawl through small or tight spaces, unjust situations, sarcasm, confrontational people, people messing with his tentacles or pulling on his arms, crowds, being challenged

-Personality: Ross can be described by his peers to be very chill and simple guy who just likes to take it one day at a time. With a calm, easygoing demeanor, he usually keeps to himself a lot, usually just stating what needs to be said when needs to be said. Ross is known to be rather "meh" when he talks, with a slightly introverted, monotone voice a lot; not too much of a big talker. However, he's not shy nor reticent, since he isn't naturally softspoken or mumbly. If talking about something serious or if presenting, you'll certainly notice a change in his tone, having more range and pitch. He'll often be seen with a neutral/"meh"-like facial expression often, but that doesn't mean he doesn't smile or grin a lot either. With this, he may come off as antisocial/independent at first to new people, when really he doesn't usually mind other people's company, as long as they simply let him be. With his chill and straightedge mien, he highly opposes teasing and sarcasm, especially in a confronting or condescending manner. After all, he doesn't do any of this stuff towards others and finds no good value in it, so he finds no good reason why it should be afflicted onto him either. When hanging around with friends, he favors doing so in groups with at least 2-3 other people, striving more for group-based hangouts rather than just a one-on-one with a single person, because he finds it more fun and enjoyable. Although, he doesn't mind the latter if that's what it may come to. He also has absolutely no problem doing personal activities and interests in solitude, such as swimming, rollerblading, biking, or even if just going for a small walk. All in all, Ross is a good-natured young boy who just likes to enjoy life one day at a time, following the "live and let live" belief to just be yourself and do what is fair and right.


Other:
-He can spit and squirt ink straight from his mouth. Just like ordinary pen ink, it can also permanently stain clothes and upholstery


-Hence being a cephalopod, he posses the natural ability to squeeze through small spaces. He can fit his whole body through any gap or hole that simply his face can fit through

-He plays a little bit of guitar and bass like that of Nathan and Hysarian. However, he’s more into punk, hard rock and nu-metal, not too much death metal. Think of bands like Linkin Park, Muse, Slipknot, Breaking Benjamin, etc. He’s definitely not as skilled as the other two, but he certainly knows a thing or two.


Welp, there you go! Hope you guys like him ^_^
