Background
No one is quite sure the original of the monstrous Octopus. The three-armed, yellow skinned, fanged humanoid could be a metahuman, alien, or something supernatural. Whatever his origins, Octopus keeps it to himself. Octopus has worked for the Vittorio Syndicate, serving as a hitman and controlling the city's racketeers for his boss, Iron Mask. With the blessing of Iron Mask, he also performs hits for other criminals using his mirror powered death ray. A resourceful villain, Octopus has served time in Bonne Nuit and was utilized for Project Second Chance on several missions.
