The octopus is mine, yes you can capture and use monsters. The octopus in particular is an absolute menace, I love what they did with them in One Vision. He has a water bubble that hits like a truck and a water beam that hits in a line that can wipe out half the HP of several units if you can position it right. Both of those abilities he can only use while in the water, but I even use him on land maps too just because he's a reliable wall of HP that hits hard up to 2 spaces out.

Yeah, just humans. And I mean high physical stats by human standards. Lizards and orcs definitely have higher strength stats, but they dont have access to a ton of jobs that make use of high int/mind. The orcs do have the patriarch class that can cast, but I think orcs look a bit goofy. I plan on using a lamia for my patriarch.
Here's an example of how stats work in One Vision. On the left are the units base stats, this unit has very good Dex, Agility, and Avoid. On the right are her stats after being modified by whatever class she is, the level of that class, and her equipment.
