• Current Official Bio
• Unofficial Updated Bio

This is Octavia's official bio currently found in her champion page in-game.

Conflict is ancient, war is perspective, but survival is the only real objective. For those who survive, there is a better life somewhere past that conflict; that is what Octavia is fighting for: a better life for us all.

The crucible of war has sharpened her battlefield instincts to a razor’s edge, but she had long left that life behind. However, after an attack against the Magistrate from Furia took her leg; Octavia's unwavering determination to the Magistrate reignited, and she re-enlisted to lead. If there is hope, she will find that spark and fan it into a roaring blaze, inspiring her troops with unwavering loyalty. The greatest threats to the Realm will have to survive meeting Octavia, the Indomitable.

This is an unofficial version of Octavia's bio intended to more clearly present all currently known information regarding her. Sources can be found here.

Octavia joined the Magistrate's forces when she was young; though following Furia's emergence and subsequent attack on the Magistrate, Octavia suffered severe injuries, most notably the loss of one of her legs. However, this wouldn't stop her from serving, as she reenlisted as soon as she got a prosthetic. Coupled with this, she now serves as a commander in the Magistrate's army, one outfitted with advanced and classified technology.

When Yagorath began to cause trouble, Octavia sent letters to various higher ups in the Magistrate to convince them of the threat, and would also fight the beast on the battlefield numerous times herself, seemingly assisting in the battle against Yagorath in the desert, fighting Vora, and later being present at another battle alongside Furia where Azaan would appear to effortlessly defeat the monster.

Following Yagorath's defeat, Octavia would be present while Grand Magister Karne decided to step down and entrust leadership of the Magistrate to House Aico, with Octavia seemingly not being fond of the decision.

Summary

Octavia is a damage champion who is equipped with a Marksman Rifle which is effective in medium to high ranges when Designated Sights is used. With her Commanding Leap she leaps into the air to gain control of the battlefield. Aiming down sights will cause Octavia to levitate in air. Moreover she can create an opaque dome that hides allies and disorients enemies inside of it. Octavia stands out with her tactical finesse to lead her team. Therefore she can select passive abilities which will support all her teammates in the fight. With her ultimate Creeping Barrage, she rains down a laser barrage on enemies.

Lore

• Octavia lost her leg following Furia's emergence, as the latter attacked the Magistrate. Octavia later re-enlisted once she got her prosthetic leg, which was somewhat recently.
  • Despite Furia being responsible, Octavia doesn't hold anything against her, as she knows it wasn't personal, with Octavia always focusing on the greater good.
• Octavia didn't have her Distortion Field back when Furia attacked, though if she did, she'd most likely still have her leg. It's because of this event that Octavia likes having her Distortion Field.
• Though Octavia doesn't appear in Yagorath's teaser trailer, she's implied to have participated in the battle shown regardless.
• While one of Octavia's influencer teasers mentions "Active Service Abroad", Octavia hasn't traveled overseas.
• Octavia serves as both a soldier and commander in the Magistrate's army.
• Octavia's weapon is equipped with advanced scoping technology.
• Her Distortion Field is highly classified technology.
• Octavia's ability to temporarily pause midair was a request from 'Research and Development'.
  • This is accomplished with some form of magic.
• Octavia's prosthetic leg in-game is for combat, while she has other legs for different situations.
• Torvald is the one who created her leg.
• Octavia isn't related to any other playable characters at all.
• Based on a dev statement revealing Viktor to be around 5'9 or 175cm tall and comparing it to model sizes in-game and out of game, it was discovered that Octavia would be around 5'10 or 179cm tall. This is also officially confirmed by one of Octavia's influencer teasers.

References

• Octavia's kill taunt towards Vora, "Don't poke me." (▶️), may be a reference to in-game poking, a tactic involving shooting from a distance without committing to a full fight; something many players often find incredibly annoying.
• The line "Never give up, never surrender." (▶️) is a reference to a line from the movie Galaxy Quest.
• The line "War. War never changes... Except... when it does." (▶️) is a reference to the line most Fallout games start with.
• Octavia's default emote and "Flex On 'Em" MVP pose reference the "We Can Do It!" American World War II-era poster.

Promotion

• Octavia was featured as a silhouette for Black History Month on the official Paladins Twitter, this being prior to her reveal as a champion.
• In order to promote Octavia, packages were sent to various Paladins influencers between March 1st, 2021 and March 3rd, 2020.
  • The first package was sent to Swindy; it consisted of Octavia's initial application to join the Magistrate. This can be viewed here.
  • The second package was sent to AliveARG; it consisted of a blueprint for Octavia's leg. This can be viewed here.
  • The third package was sent to PWNDotcom; it consisted of a letter from Octavia to the Grand Tactician of the Crosswind Magistrate Legion, as well as one of Yagorath's teeth. These can be viewed here. and here.
    • The letter reads as follows:

“

To: The High War Council & the Grand Tactician of the Crosswind Magistrate Legion.

”

“

We need to confront this at the source before it spreads. Sections of the desert have already been consumed.

”

“

If we wait for this to reach Crosswind Hold, we will have been months too late already.

”

“

This is not a threat to the Magistrate - This is a threat to the Realm.

”

“

Octavia

”

• Octavia's standard teasers can be found here.
  • (Teaser 1) "We all have a duty to protect this Realm. We all have a duty to come together when it needs us most."
  • (Teaser 2) "War has always pulled us apart. But the Harbinger ripped our Realm to shreds."
  • (Teaser 3) "Our Realm cannot stand against this monster. Not alone. But together? I can lead us to victory."
  • (Teaser 4) "Do not fear the Devourer. We've got a job to do, and I intend to see all of us through it."
  • (Teaser 5) "We've got the numbers. Resolve. Firepower. What does she have? We stand and fight today!"

Concepts

• Concepts for Octavia show a number of differences for various aspects of Octavia, from her leg, hair, and weapon, to alternate concepts for her Distortion Field and Creeping Barrage abilities, with the former featuring concepts such as the dome being covered in electricity, being a standard cloud of smoke, or being a cloud of smoke charged with electricity; the latter meanwhile, featured concepts such as a missile burying itself in the ground before shooting lasers back up, a missile exploding just before hitting the ground and sending shrapnel flying everywhere, or a missile breaking up before hitting the ground and turning into an electrically charged smoke cloud that would then create a massive explosion.
• There were some discussions about Octavia using her sword in-game, but this obviously didn't end up going anywhere.
• Concepts of Octavia's cards show some differences from the final product. This includes the artwork for Dominant Dome featuring two generic Magistrate soldiers, rather than the two Viktors, while the artwork for the card Entrenched being flipped and showing Octavia looking towards the doorway, rather than the Ska'drin mother.
• Octavia originally had a different splash art prior to the final design being settled on.
• A concept of a Corrupted skin exists for Octavia, which could possibly become a reality one day, but for now, hasn't gained enough traction.

Other

• Yagorath's fang from the third influencer package was made using EVA foam clay.
• While somewhat similar-looking, Corvus is not present in Octavia's trailer, with the soldiers present being generic Magistrate soldiers; though Corfvus did serve as their base.
• Octavia has a unique reload animation that plays when she runs out of ammo.
• Octavia is apparently similar to another champion that was cut and initially intended to open off 2021, this being either Karne or Valera.
• Unlike other champions, Octavia's default emote is not listed in her champion page and can't be equipped, though the emote can still be used if no other emotes are equipped. It's suspected this is due to the emote, which involves Octavia performing a fist pump after placing her other hand on her bicep, being reminiscent of an obscene gesture in certain parts of the world.
• Octavia's voice actress, Jeanie Brown, also voices Nyx.

Champion Skins

• Commander
  • A commander is someone who leads armed forces. Imagine that.

• Maverick
  • A maverick is an unorthodox or independent-minded person.
  • Concepts for this skin originally referred to it as the "Young Magistrate" skin, and also featured both of Octavia's legs, implying this skin may have initially been intended to represent a younger version of Octavia.
  • Though marked as 'Exclusive' in-game, this skin is intended to be 'Limited', as mentioned various times.

• Beachside / Freedom Fighter
  • The Beachside skin is mistakenly referred to as "Shore Patrol Octavia" in the Shadows patch notes.
  • The Beachside skin appears Ripjaw and Great Orange Buck's teaser.
  • The Beachside skin appears in the Down the Barrel spray.
  • These skins share their theme with Longboard Lex, Sarrada Lex Sun Kissed Cassie, Copacabana Cassie, Shore Patrol Kinessa, Shore Patrol Koga, Shore Patrol Fernando, Shore Patrol Lian, Lifeguard Tiberius, and the Beach Bash variants of the Shore Patrol skins.
  • The Freedom Fighter skin also shares its theme with Ameri-Khan, Freegle Drogoz, and Lady Liberty Inara.
  • The sword these skins wield shares their theme with the REKT Weapons.
