Occeus Coliad, also known by his Skorpe handle, macabreExude, is one of the trolls in Vast Error. His associated alchemical sigil is Sulfur and his horns are in the shape of small crowns.
Occeus is the 'Mad Scientist' archetype, despite not seeming to truly fit the label. He has many references to 'Frankenstein' based on his character, the obvious example being the naming of his assistant, Rogi; 'Igor', the assistant to Victor Frankenstein, spelled backwards.
His visor is made specifically to cover up his third eye that formed after a major traumatic incident in his past. This third eye allows him to momentarily see into alternate dimensions, seeing vague figures and apparitions out of the corners and more so when he makes a conscious effort to contact the dimensions directly. He also constantly hear the low buzzing of static in the back of his mind, but it doesn't bother him so long as he doesn't think about it. Which could potentially be a reference to Edgar Allen Poe's The Telltale Heart.
He was the eighth troll introduced and the second troll introduced in Act 2.
Biography
Six Sweeps
Not much is currently known about Occeus before the story begins. However, it has been said in his intro page that he got his Transmuted Epiphysis Cerebri (Third Eye) from a major traumatic event. It is unknown if this event took place before or after he was six sweeps of age, but knowing the patterns within the comic it seems rather likely.
Pre-game
During the Game
Occeus has not currently been shown to have entered the game.
Personality and Traits
As a scientist and engineer, Occeus is characterized by his empirical, scientific outlook on life. He is a cold, detached pragmatist who is fiercely dedicated to his scientific work.
He works towards the continued survival of his decaying planet and towards undoing the zombie plague that ravages its population. His dedication and desperation for this goal has led him to neglect his personal relationships and abandon many of his non-work related pastimes. As such, he doesn't have a lot of close, personal relationships.
His scientific outlook leaves him unlikely to entertain the concepts related to the supernatural or anything he considers absurd. When confronted with the reality of some of these concepts, such as the reality-bending nature of The Game, he struggles to accept the matter as truth.
Relationships
Ellsee Raines
Ellsee and Occeus are matespirts, and unique to the other relationships in the cast aside from Murrit and Dismas, have been sexually intimate with one another.
Due to Occeus' workaholic nature and his desperation to preserve his planet, Occeus is unfortunately rather neglectful of Ellsee, leaving her to suffer from symptoms not unlike withdrawal in his absence (as is the case for Repitonian trolls who have been intimate with another and do not see each other for extended periods of time). Occeus regrets this, and realizes that Ellsee deserves better, but will nonetheless prioritize his work over her.
Ellsee often volunteers the use of her lime blood for Occeus to use in his biological experiments, due to the blood's unique life-bearing properties.
Taz
Taz occasionally fluctuates into the ashen quadrant with Occeus, with Albion acting as mediator. This would indicate some enmity between the two. The two appear to have been involved in a now-ended black relationship with one another.
Rogi
Rogi is Occeus' assistant in his scientific pursuits. The creature was the result of one of Occeus' failed experiments, and is consequently unintelligent and largely useless as a result. However, Occeus doesn't seem to mind so much, and keeps the creature around to help with the grizzlier, more menial parts of his experiments, or perhaps to act as some modicum of company in his lonely work.
Albion Shukra
Due to the likely tumultuous relationship between Taz and Occeus, Taz's moirail is often pulled to act as mediator when they enter the ashen quadrant part-time. It is unknown what Albion and Occeus' personal relationship is like, as they have yet to interact in-comic.
grandioseSaturation
It has been shown that the two have had a, now-ended, pale relationship with one another.
Trivia
- 'macabre' in his trolltag is a reference to his interest in most things relating to death, such as his reanimation experiments, his study of parasites, and his ultimate goal of trying to 'reanimate' the planet. 'Exude' could be a reference to his normal methods of injecting lime blood into corpses, due to its meaning of a slow and steady discharge. Altogether, the tag can refer to his disturbing presence as a whole.
- The pupil of his Third Eye bears a striking resemblance to that of Gaiaeon. It is unknown what exactly this means or if they share any sort of connection.
