3. Her character
The wiki describes her as unrestrained, fierce, brave, short-tempered, and tending to see things in black-and-white. She loves intensely, fights intensely, and falls intensely. [1]
For writing, Octavia works best when you remember she's not just "the tough warrior" — she's a kid who never got to be a kid, so every freedom in her becomes more extreme, and every loss runs deeper.
