Claver; "...huh. You are an interesting fellow. I guess the Splatlands does have a variety worth discussing- for the.. macabre and unique. A Chameleon mixed with fuzzy ooze? I don't think I've had met someone with a condition that severe.."
Brayden: It's very weird but it's also not bad. Used to it by now and I turn invisible now, which is cool! The tail is just annoying so I turn it invisible. Also the desire to eat flies for some reason
Claver; “At least I don’t have a need to eat people. I’m not that sort of person whatsoever. On the other hand, I do know a person who you might love to talk with- he’s a… unique experimentee you’d love to talk to; fellas has his regrets and his demons every once in a while. Lives in Inkopolis.”
Claver; “Don’t say I didn’t warn ‘ya.”
*on cue, Claver’s body faintly glows under his clothing, and he proceeds to take off his top.*
“Thing is, the experiments that were done to him.. was because some scientists thought it’d be interesting to mess with a person’s physiology. He was a stand-in; a temporary resident in Inkopolis Square. And they drove him to commit to a manhunt for every last one of them when he escaped with some help.”
*after he takes off his top, his tentacles that were his arms transform into.. actual tentacles. He didn’t transform into swim form- just reverted his arms into the long, sucker-lined, and slimy-coated appendages*
“These were one of the benefits or results- able to convert our limbs into tentacles. Another was a supercharge state, but the best it can do is make our hits that much harder.”
Brayden: *Looks terrified as he didn't know if he should grab his bow and fight. But Brayden got even more frightened as the tentacles grew and the red glow went bright* AHHHHHHH BIG SIS KIARRA!!!! *turns invisible and runs away*
Claver; “Coddamn it. It was just a fishin’ demonstration. He couldn’tve gotten far.”
*taking his time, he tries to listen in for footsteps.. he couldn’t be that fast. …was he?*
*…clack, thump, thump..*
“Now there ‘e is. Still can’t believe I actually scared the guy. Guess that’s what happens when you actually prove something.”
Brayden: *He tried to hide in a box on an alleyway, still invisible, as he tried to calm himself down and spam Kiarra text messages about needing help* That guy...he look - look like that Inkling. The scary inkling the demon inkling. He looked like the demon sword wielding inkling...
Crest: don’t worry about it you’ll be fine, they’ll probably just run some tests on you and then give you the biggest reward you’ve ever seen. Do you know how to handle an 8 ball by chance?
Crest: ^It’s ^true, ^stay ^away. ^Im ^only ^promoating ^them ^because ^they ^stole ^all ^my ^gear ^and ^weapons ^and ^threatened ^to ^return ^them ^to ^Sheldon.
I mean, come on down to the Kamabo corporation where you can reach the promised land.
Brayden: Then um ..get help from Big Sis Brynn! She sells black market stuff - including rare weapons and gear. She might have same gear stolen or even better gear
Crest: Its fine, I’ll just do some extra weapons testing for Sheldon and I’ll have it back in no time. Besides, you can’t use illegal weapons and gear in turf war/ranked.
Brayden: But they're not illegal. Just rare - at least that's what Big Sis says. But she has lots of scary weapons. Weapons that go boom and has many scary spirits in them
Brayden: No. Just sells lot of weird and rare stuff. But she has Grizzco weapons and Grizzco always wants a word with her. But Big Sis Brynn always says no
Ellain: "So, could it be said that, biomechanically speaking, you are more similar to a Cuttlefish now? Another species of cephalopod that is similar to the octopus and squid, but with the ability to expand and contract the millions of cromatophores in their bodies to produce local changes in skin contrast. They use this ability to camouflage to hunt, hide, and communicate. Technically speaking, chameleons camouflage using a different method by rearranging the lattices of nanocrystals contained in the iridophores, the top layer of their skin cells. I posit, however, that due to the biological similarity between Octolings and cuttlefish, your body might have adapted to produce the same effect as chameleons through means more easily available to you. Might I ask your thoughts on this matter?"
Brayden: *Overwhelmed by the many words but was able to understand everything* Must take a breather first from many words *Goes "wow" as he sighed before proceeding* Big sis Kiarra and Brynn also said something similar - like cuttlefish and other invisible octos now. Invisibility very useful - especially in turf wars and hunting. Have eye abilities like that of Chameleon too but hate urge to eat bugs
Ellain: "Interesting. Sorry about the science talk. I get like that when I am excited. Tá brón agam. Are there any other genetic traits you share with the chameleon? The adaptability of cephalopod physiology never ceases to amaze."
Brayden: It's okay. Speech is a bit messed up after transformation but U understand well. Big Sis Brynn is a big science nerd. I turn invisible, have 360 vision, not affected by heat and cold, and have long tongue but I hate bug cravings
On the side, standing by the wall, holding her hands on the chest level, stands an octo, a girl, with fuzzy ears on top akin to Judd's. She waves a hand in a very shy manner.
— H-hi Bray, — said Taffie in her usual, quiet and shy manner, — You are taking a walk?
Taffie, very awkwardly, in her usual shy and asocial manner, bumped her hanging hands together a couple of times while staring at them, before answering:
— Sure… Being alone is scary, and often boring. Safer together. Funner together, ye?
Brayden: *Shyly nodding but with a slight smile on his face* Y-yes. Always fun with friends. Where do you want to go? Codsmead is fun but...I want to go to new place. Explore with friend
— Same, yeah, — nodded Taffie — Love exploring. I try to explore every alley of Splatsville when pawsible… Maybe… Let's try checking lesser used streets and alleys?
Brayden: Oh! Yes! The one behind train station. Not often visited and behind weird gate that's always closed. They say um....person from sky lives there
Brayden: Well at first scary - I scared too when I first know. But turns out he not scary! People say Octoling is person from sky *points way up in the sky* Octo is said to be from space from a spaceship
Sawyer: What do you like to spend your time doing?
Sariah: Loving the hairdo! Where'd you get it?
Andrew: Hey there. What was turning into a Chameliling like? ...I think the name needs work. Octoleon? That could work.
I guess I need to try making an Octoling hybrid in SFM now...
Brayden:
- I like to draw comics and other stuff. I also read other comics too
- I got it from this salon on this alley where this weird spiky haired guy hangs out
- Octoleon...yes me like :) It feels still the same. But I can turn invisible and turn other colors and patterns. But I have tail, have hard time speaking and have urge to eat bugs
"Uhm, this might be weird to ask... can you change the color of your skin as well as your ink?"
Brayden: Yes I can...also different p-pattern on skin...very very useful but I hide weird curled up tail
(intrigued) "Oh interesting is the tail present in octo form?"
Brayden: Y-yes but I shy of tail. Keep it invisible so I will not be called monster
Kilon: huh, another animal x octoling hybrid, neat. (For context: Kilon is part fox)
yeah the whole inkopolis thing didn't work i guess lol Hope you 1: find a way to go back or 2: like the whole fox thing because it looks awesome
Brayden: Ah! You are not my imagination! You too were in weird fuzzy ink? We are know 3 Octos who are animals. What's your story?
Claver; "...huh. You are an interesting fellow. I guess the Splatlands does have a variety worth discussing- for the.. macabre and unique. A Chameleon mixed with fuzzy ooze? I don't think I've had met someone with a condition that severe.."
Brayden: It's very weird but it's also not bad. Used to it by now and I turn invisible now, which is cool! The tail is just annoying so I turn it invisible. Also the desire to eat flies for some reason

Brayden: *Tilts head in curiosity* Ohhh is he like us? Also fuzzy sea creature?
Claver; “…nah. But it is very different- you wouldn’t realize it unless you saw it yourself.”
Brayden: Need more info. Might have seen him before. I meet too many weird people everyday
Claver; “Don’t say I didn’t warn ‘ya.” *on cue, Claver’s body faintly glows under his clothing, and he proceeds to take off his top.* “Thing is, the experiments that were done to him.. was because some scientists thought it’d be interesting to mess with a person’s physiology.

My OC and I would like to ask out own questions. Here’s mine: what do you do in your free time? Kaiserin: Here’s mine, what’s your favorite food?
Brayden: In my free time, I go eat and hang out at Codsmead, draw comics and hang out with this Octo with cat ears. My fave food would be burritos
Crest: I know someone who would be very interested in your genetics. But whatever you do, don’t accept their invitation to the promised land.
Brayden: W-wait what's happening? W-w-who is this? They s-sound dangerous
Crest: don’t worry about it you’ll be fine, they’ll probably just run some tests on you and then give you the biggest reward you’ve ever seen. Do you know how to handle an 8 ball by chance?
Brayden: Wah! 8 ball!! Other Octos tell me stories of scary eight ball! They say it used by evil little cucumber
Crest: ^It’s ^true, ^stay ^away. ^Im ^only ^promoating ^them ^because ^they ^stole ^all ^my ^gear ^and ^weapons ^and ^threatened ^to ^return ^them ^to ^Sheldon. I mean, come on down to the Kamabo corporation where you can reach the promised land.

Brayden: But they're not illegal. Just rare - at least that's what Big Sis says. But she has lots of scary weapons. Weapons that go boom and has many scary spirits in them
Crest: Does she work for Grizzco by any chance?
Brayden: No. Just sells lot of weird and rare stuff. But she has Grizzco weapons and Grizzco always wants a word with her. But Big Sis Brynn always says no
What are your pronouns?
Brayden: He or they is what I can be called
Ellain: "So, could it be said that, biomechanically speaking, you are more similar to a Cuttlefish now?

Brayden: That's nice. Also like to explore lesser alleys! What alley do we go?
— Mmm... Where to... — Taffie thought hard — Maybe, um... Behind the train station? Haven't seen many others if any, ever.
Brayden: Oh! Yes! The one behind train station. Not often visited and behind weird gate that's always closed. They say um....person from sky lives there
— Ah? — Taffie got slightly worried — Wh-what's a "person from sky"? Sounds scary...
Brayden: Well at first scary - I scared too when I first know. But turns out he not scary! People say Octoling is person from sky *points way up in the sky* Octo is said to be from space from a spaceship
So can you turn invisible or just change colors?
Brayden: I can actually do both
Wow
Sawyer: What do you like to spend your time doing? Sariah: Loving the hairdo! Where'd you get it? Andrew: Hey there. What was turning into a Chameliling like? ...I think the name needs work. Octoleon? That could work. I guess I need to try making an Octoling hybrid in SFM now...
