The other one is called the “Pony” hairstyle. The tips of all four tentacles curl upwards. The female Octoling's first hairstyle is called the “Tentacurl”, and has two tentacles in the front reaching past their shoulders with two thicker, shorter tentacles in the back. In Splatoon 2, both the male and female Octolings possess two different choices in hairstyle. The choices of eye color and skin tone are identical to the Inklings. Just like Inklings, Octolings are able to choose from a variety of skin tones, hairstyles, and eye colors. These options are generally rounder than the Inklings' options. In Splatoon 3, they have more options to choose from. Their eyebrows are also different from Inklings, with males having a half oval shape and females having a curved droplet shape in Splatoon 2. Similar to enemy Octolings, the ends of their fingers are pointed, but the playable Octolings do not have these ends being tinted in their ink color. Their ears are round and asymmetrical, with the right side being flat and the left side being indented, each respectively resembling the fin and siphon on an octopus. Their teeth are also different, having one sharp end tooth on their left side on the top, and another sharp tooth on the right side on the bottom. Octolings do not have their markings connect over the middle, having it separated compared to Inklings. The humanoid form has black markings around their eyes, with both styles having two sharp edges and a thicker underline, where the feminine Octoling has an added dash to their markings. Between Splatoon 2 and Splatoon 3, Octolings undergo design changes reflecting their squid counterparts, becoming taller, and having more rounded and less squat faces. They have a total of eight tentacles, like octopi in the real world. The tips of their tentacles, as well as the head, have a ring pattern on them. The suction cups are located on the underside of their tentacles, as opposed to their humanoid form having suckers on the top side. Their octopus form is widely different to the Octarian ones, with two long tentacles in the middle that helps them move, two smaller ones in front that resembles a mustache, and four smaller ones on the underside, along with a pair of eyes that are separated and resemble an Inkling squid's eyes. Like Inklings, Octolings can switch between a humanoid form and an octopus form. This is confirmed by Cap'n Cuttlefish in Octo Expansion.Īppearance For a visual overview of character customization options, see player customization. This happened during the "Enter the Octobot King!" mission of the first game while you fight DJ Octavio as Agent 3. Many (but not all) of them escaped to Inkling society in Inkopolis afterwards, hoping to start anew. The playable Octolings were once members of the Octarian military, loyal to DJ Octavio and fed propaganda that kept them hostile towards Inklings, but when they heard the Calamari Inkantation, it opened their eyes to the possibility of Inklings and Octolings living together in harmony as they once did. This forced the Octarians to retreat to desolate areas such as Octo Valley and Octo Canyon, and take up residence underground. The long abandoned human settlement of Alterna is the birthplace of the species, after reactive liquid crystals infused with lingering human thoughts and feelings leaked into the ocean surrounding the settlement, unintentionally accelerating the evolution of octopuses and other species of marine life.Īround 100 years before the events of Splatoon, the Inklings and the Octarians engaged in the Great Turf War due to territorial disputes caused by rising sea levels. Octolings are evolved species of octopus that came to be after rising sea levels destroyed humanity.
