I'm gonna make one big mystery of the map hc masterpost because there is SO much to talk abt
the ages for mya, jorge and oliver have been left kinda vague but it's pretty easy to take a guess at what their ages would be
i'd say say mya is 12, and both jorge and oliver are 11
octavian on the other hand is probably in his mid thirties, judging by his life experience and partially his appearance
octavian greatly prefers hand to hand combat, as it's what he's most skilled in
he was a v polite, tender person while working as one of poptropica's protectors. like the kind of guy who'd go an outing with the kids of a village and have fun w them for an afternoon to distract them from the horrors of whatever's going on around them.
it was only after Paulla passed away that he turned violent, and decided he'd do whatever it took to get her back.
I know this is poptropica we're talking about, but I really liked the way that all three kids had a pretty obvious heritage
like how mya is chinese, evident by the etymology of her surname; Wong. (I guess that doesn't really make it a hc if it's canon hnnnshdgd)
spefically, I hc Jorge as mexican and oliver as caucasian.
I haven't really thought too heavily about octavian's heritage before, as he has no given surname in the series but his complexion gives away that he may be from a latin country.
oliver ADORES the outdoors (heh). like this kid absolutely loves being outside and in nature. it's part of the reason why he wasn't totally upset when the events of mystery of the map, well, happened.
jorge on the hand is the total opposite. he prefers to spend his time indoors watching TV or using the twenty minutes of computer access he's allowed daily.
mya is a mix of both, you'll often find her studying or doing research indoors about outdoor topics.
also I refuse to believe jorge's name is pronounced "hor-hey" and there is not one soul out there that can say otherwise.
octavian is so unbelievably complex like... I could do a full thesis on his character study alone. @/poptropica I would do ANYTHING to have an in-depth view at octavian's life before he joined the protectors.
this one is a bit of a dark hc but I've always had the thought that paulla was pregnant when she passed during the eruption of mt. vesuvius. she wasn't particularly far along-, but enough that octavian was aware and was incredibly excited to finally have a family of his own.
this was also a motivational factor to why octavian was so determined to rewrite time itself just to see her again.
and even perhaps to why he was so bitter towards the kids; because they represented something he could never have of his own. something that slipped through his fingers all because of spencer's determination to preserve history.
so at the end of the series,,, they all kind of taught each other a lesson abt life... and how valuable it is to each of them,,,
I can't put my finger on to how or why, but I swear there has to be a link between the portal at the end of motm and the one that salerno goes through in lunar colony.
