![]() The central theme of Octo Expansion is breaking this cycle with Agent 8 and the other Octolings abandoning DJ Octavio's quest for revenge, and the Inklings dropping old prejudices to share their culture and home with their former rivals. Their actions only led to the formation of the New Squidbeak Splatoon, an Inkling militia dedicated to taking back the Zapfish and tearing the Octarian forces apart. Embittered by their defeat as well as facing an energy crisis, the Octarians plot their revenge with Zapfish thefts and the eventual invasion on Inkopolis. The Octarians were driven into underground domes, which slowly began to deteriorate 100 years later. The Octarians nearly won but due to a careless plug that deactivated their Great Octoweapons, they were unable to stop the Inkling retaliation. Cycle of Revenge: Rising tides caused the Octarians to wage war with the Inklings over the remaining territories. ![]() In 2's Octo Expansion, enemy Octarians instead use a light teal color that contrasts with their original color, which is now used by Agent 8. Color-Coded for Your Convenience: Octarians in Hero Mode always use a dark pink-colored ink, which contrasts with every ink color the player uses.Even if Marina herself skipped multiple grades, Octarians are implied to potentially be able to enlist before the age of fourteen, which says a lot about their current militaristic culture and desire to get revenge on the Inklings. Child Soldiers: Now, the Inklings getting involved in mock battles for sport at around 14 is one thing, but according to Cap'n Cuttlefish's file on Marina in Octo Expansion, Octolings can enroll (or are drafted) into elementary military training programs as early as the age of six.And Fuzzy Octarians are Octarians who have been forcibly converted into mammals and thus are enslaved to Mr. Sanitized Octarians are Octarians blended with a special ooze created by Commander Tartar that turns them into mindless zombies. Brainwashed and Crazy: They are unfortunate victims of this by factions not affiliated with DJ Octavio.They do have technology that does more traditional brainwashing, like the hypnoshades used on Callie. It's only when Callie and Marie hijack Octavio's speakers and play Calamari Inkantation instead that the trance is broken, especially among the Octolings. A military mindset is instilled on Octarians from an early age, and the music composed by DJ Octavio and his direct subordinates inspires its listeners to be so diligent and focused that it's almost akin to brainwashing. Brainwashed: Octarian culture in the domes runs on the propaganda variant.Blob Monster: Like the Inklings, they seem to be primarily made out of ink.Black Eyes of Crazy: Sanitized variants tend to have pitch-black sclera, owing to their Brainwashed and Crazy status.Official information is somewhat contradictory about whether Octolings are born the same way, but the general trend over time seems to be that Octolings are indeed distinct from their non-humanoid brethren, being presumably born the same way as Inklings (Diss-Pair's Octoling DJ is even explictly stated to have two parents rather than just one). Bizarre Alien Reproduction: Most Octarians are "born" via severing a tentacle from a "source" Octarian.At the top of the hierarchy are Octolings, who have eight tentacles and the ability to take a humanoid form. For instance, the basic troops are just a single walking tentacle, their slightly more elite counterparts have two tentacles, and the flying Octarians who handle heavy ordinance have five tentacles. Bizarre Alien Biology: The higher-ranked an Octarian is, the more tentacles and intelligence it is likely to develop.Amazing Technicolor Population: The enemy Octarians in the second game's Octo Expansion, including Octolings, all have sickly green skin instead of the standard red and white of standard Octarians or the pale human-tone skin of Octolings, the result of them being "Sanitized" by Commander Tartar.Airborne Mook: Some Octarians can fly, usually with the aid of propeller hats.The Octarians are a militaristic society of octopuses who live beneath the surface and repeatedly try to invade Inkopolis. ![]() The main antagonists of the series' Hero Mode.
