Octo Family

The Octo Family was a family of tailors hailing from Asmodean. Following the Jakoku Civil War, the family settled in the eastern nation as a samurai clan, reigning over the Izasa region.

Early History
Following the Levianta Catastrophe in EC 013, a woman of the Leviantan Loop Octopus Clan married into the Octo Family and had several children. One child later opened a tailor shop in Lasaland, Asmodean while another child married and sired Lukana Octo in EC 116. Due to her prophecy of Mystica having a drought in EC 126 coming true, the child became the talk of the town in Asmodean for a short while. In EC 136, Lukana was abducted by Duke Sateriasis Venomania while returning from the Lasaland New Year Festival. After being freed the following year, Lukana bore the Duke's daughter.

Rise in Jakoku
Afterward, Lukana's daughter gave birth to two children; one child's lineage eventually settled in the Kingdom of Elphegort. The other child's lineage later branched into two, one leading to the birth of Gaou Octo in the sixth century EC. After winning aclaim by the end of the Jakoku Civil War in EC 549, Gaou was made the magistrate of the newly united nation's Izasa region and the samurai family began safeguarding the Twin Blades of Levianta.

Gaou's descendant, Gato Octo, later sired four children. One child later sired the eldest daughter, Kagura, tasking her to protect the Twin Blades; two of the other children eventually sired Gakuga and Anan Octo. Kagura, later had her body stolen by the Demon of Envy at age sixteen, trapped in the Twin Blades while the Demon fled and eloped with Nagare Sudou; the family subsequently disowned her. Gakuga was disowned sometime after and later married Kayo Sudou in January, EC 838.

Following the huge fire that swept through Enbizaka at the end of the year, Gakuga was recovered by a traveling monk and, suffering amnesia, joined his profession. Around the same time, the Octos took in Kayo until the Tailor recovered from her burns in early EC 842; during that period, Anan was tasked with finding and recovering the Twin Blades of Levianta. Magistrate Gato later convicted Kayo of murdering the Miroku Family toward the end of the same year.

Return to Evillious
Another of Gato's other children's lineage led to bore Nyoze and Gammon Octo, becoming part of the Leviantan military. In EC 982, Nyoze was tried for murder by the USE Dark Star Bureau's supreme court director Gallerian Marlon and convicted. Some time after, Nyoze escaped and hid with his lover Nemesis Sudou in Rolled, Lucifenia before being killed by the assassin in December of that year.

Around that time, Gammon founded the rebel organization Tasan and helped spark the Leviantan Civil War in August of EC 983. Following the conflict, he reorganized Tasan as a political party in the USE. Sometime during the EC 990s, Gammon attempted to infiltrate Evil's Theater and was captured by its inhabitants, forced to act as their "Gardener".

Hell on Earth
After the destruction of the Third Period, all the dead members of the Octo family residing in the Heavenly Yard were dragged back down to the earth as the ground world merged with the Hellish Yard.
