MEDICAL INFORMATION: robotic legs

FIRST IMPRESSIONS
VISUAL: usually wears some sort of mask over his face, even when outside of the arena and keeps his hair dyed green. inside the arena, cap and goggles are a must for him. has no qualms or shame in showing off his mid-drift at all times. tattoo on his arm reads "plus ultra," meaning: "further beyond." scars riddle his body (especially around his legs, he never stayed for the full treatment or therapy following him losing his legs) and he typically can be spotted with a piercing or two or twenty.
AURAL: hyper, speaks quickly, and rarely stays on the same subject for long. has a wide range of tone from low to high pitched and excited. he will often mix Spanish into his speech naturally.
OLFACTORY: nutmeg, star anise, orange, lemon, and low notes of vanilla. if you're thinking old spice, then you're probably right.
DEMEANOUR: easily bored. not officially stated as having ADHD, but it's a possibility. exudes a lot of unearned confidence and enjoys getting a rise out of people way too much. inherently despises what people consider the "good life" or ideals of normalcy. after that, the deeper you go it's oops all daddy issues on the way down .

LORE
One day, Octavio Silva was bored. In fact, he was bored most days. Heir to the preoccupied CEOs of Silva Pharmaceuticals and wanting for nothing in life, he entertained himself by performing death-defying stunts and posting holovids of them for his fans to gawk over. So, this day, he decided to set the course record for a nearby Gauntlet by launching himself across the finish line – using a grenade. He later recounted that day as the single greatest day in his life.
As he lay in triage hours later, the doctors informed him that the damage done to his legs meant his daredevil days were over. That didn’t sit well with Octavio, who turned to an old friend for help: Ajay Che, who he guilted into forging an order to replace his legs with bionic ones. Suddenly able to repair his limbs at a moment’s notice, Octavio decided petty online stunts weren’t enough: the ultimate adrenaline rush, the Apex Games, was calling. Now, he’s going to become an Apex Champion doing the most incredible, death-defying moves anyone’s ever seen. Maybe in the arena, he won’t be so bored.
