History: Octave was a female Daimon - the product of the fusion of a Daimon Egg with a violin - who in accordance with Kaolinite's orders sought out a young violinist with a pure heart by the name of Takuzo Igarashi, whose dedication to his instrument had made him an ideal target. Suddenly coming to life while he was in the middle of a violin and piano recital, Octave first used her sonic attack in order to render the entire audience unconscious and then successfully extracted the Heart Crystal of her now senseless human victim. Upon exiting the auditorium during her attempt to escape with the stolen pure heart, the Daimon was confronted by the Inner Soldiers - who had been attending the concert in their civilian identities - whom she quickly incapacitated and might have succeeded in eliminating had it not been for the timely intervention of Tuxedo Mask.  
                 Though greatly outnumbered by her Sailor Soldier adversaries, Octave quickly went on the offensive, goading them with the knowledge that they could not use their magical attacks on her for fear of hurting the unconscious victims inside the auditorium behind her, especially after one of Sailor Jupiter's missed "Sparkling Wide Pressures" caused massive damage to the entrance to the building. Nevertheless, the monster was taken by surprise by Sailor Neptune's "Deep Submerge", but rapidly recovered and immediately launched a counterattack against the Outer Soldier which missed its mark only due to a last minute save courtesy of Sailor Moon. In retaliation, Sailor Uranus struck Octave head on with her "World Shaking", stunning her long enough for Sailor Moon to destroy the Daimon with her "Moon Spiral Heart Attack".

Abilities: Aside from the ability to fly, Octave possessed a star-shaped mark on her stomach capable of emitting a beam of black energy that would cause a human being's Heart Crystal to emerge from his or her body after being focused on that person's upper torso for a certain period of time. By playing the violin strings on her costume with a bow, she could emit high-pitched concentric waves of sound from her open mouth, the intensity and destructiveness of which could be regulated by the speed at which she did so. Slow playing would release either short bursts or large continuous ones capable of shattering glass and stunning individuals or even rendering them unconscious, while fast playing would intensify it into a narrow beam of bright blue light capable of shattering solid stone. 
Paraphernalia: Octavia used a bow - one slightly larger than the kind used to play a normal violin - in order to invoke her powers.
