Personality
He is very calm and quiet. He doesn't really smile or speak much, but is very polite. He is very apathetic towards thing that don't concern him and he is a selfish egoist, and will always think of himself first. He judges anything by whether it benefits him or not.
His parents treat him as a pet and a toy so this caused him to become extremely repressed. He doesn't show his appreciation to people unless somebody did it first, then will he reciprocate. He is very calculating of other people's deeds, but when a bigger benefit appears, he dares to betray.
He lacks gender and moral consciousness, however he is still smart and manipulative. Basically, he is a double faced jerk with the front of a gentleman. As a criminal, he is extremely cautious of criminal scene aesthetics and every murder will be meticulously done like a piece of artwork.
The mediums he use and the methods he enforces are extreme making him a crazy artist.

Early Life
Otis was born on October 1st, 1980. His childhood was spent under the pressure of parents’ high expectations and control; since the parents had hoped for a daughter and not a son, they decided to treat Otis like a girl by giving him a female name and dressing him up like a girl.
The treatment continued until he was six years old when he started attending school. His parents began dressing him up like a boy to avoid attention; due to this alteration, Otis’ emotional distress began building up.

On the night of October 30th, 1994, Otis began a massacre in his dorm, killing 17 and wounding 5. The victims of the killing are all students from his class. Due to the large number of casualties, the police suspected the involvement of accomplices in the murder.
