Description:

- There is more to Octavia than meets the eye. To the citizens Ponyville, she is one of the most celebrated cellists in all Equestria. It's true she has a passion and talent for her playing, but a musician is only one of two identities she assumes. Her first deception is her cutie mark- a treble clef- despite her instrument being in the bass clef. Her second deception is that she's actually the biggest crime boss of Equestria, the most wanted assassin in probably the entire world, and the most notorious legend. A special agent called Sweetie Drops, better known as Bon Bon, is assigned to Ponyville to track her down.

- Octavia is at the very top of the underground hierarchy. All bow to her, though most have never even met her. Under this persona she assumes the name "Requiem," and this name is feared by all. Requiem is a legend- only those in her inner circle know that she's real. In the past 20 years, 75% of all crime is traced back to her.

- She's half unicorn, half earth pony, but her status as an earth pony make her all the more dangerous. It's considered fantasy for an earth pony to be capable of what she's accomplished- earth ponies are extremely underestimated, and are often considered the weakest of the pony races.

- Her musical partner, Vinyl Scratch, is another special agent who was sent to track her down. Octavia is aware of Vinyl's purpose, but Vinyl has no idea she works so closely to the very pony she's meant to catch. Octavia likes it that way.

- Although she considers Octavia her false identity, and Requiem her real one, music is deeply personal to her. She has a true gift in the arts, and uses her playing to let off steam. She takes it very seriously and would actually rather attend a concert than eliminate the next pony on her hit list.

- She's frighteningly composed and organized, which is why no one has found any significant leads on Requiem for years.

Honestly this was supposed to be a jokey headcanon since it's so dramatic, but I kinda like it. Drew this in about an hour and didn't feel like properly lining it, but here's Octavia! Don't think I've ever drawn her before
