Background

Inklings are the evolved species of squid that came to be after rising sea levels led to the extinction of humanity. 100 years before the events of Splatoon, rising sea levels made Inklings and Octarians engage in the Great Turf War to fight over the remaining territory left. At the end, the Inklings won, forcing the Octarians to retreat to deep and desolate areas such as Octo Valley and Octo Canyon.

    Other

    Standard Tactics: Inklings are wildcards as many different Inklings have varying strategies. However, most involve attacking with their several weapons, using techniques and abilities, and teamwork to lead to victory.

    Weaknesses: Inklings cannot swim.

    Note: Octolings such as Agent 8 have been shown to have a really high resistance to the effects of Sanitized Ink as they are not sanitized by being hit and Octo Expansion shows that it takes far more complicated work to fully sanitize the Octarian species unlike Agent 3 and Rider who were partially sanitized by just 1 shot of sanitized Ink. The "Belly Phase" which is the 2nd scan of Octarians being sanitized (イブクロ消毒場 in Japanese) also translates to "Stomach Sanitization Site," as well as it being directly confirmed in the Official Octo Expansion art book that they are sanitized in the Belly Phase as shown here and being sent to the test sites from there.

    Note 2: Spawn Points canonically exist in verse as we see it used in a boss battle, and it is seen on a Mem Cake agent 8 gets. Mem Cakes are the memories of test subjects that are extracted and kneaded into a tangible object, which would mean a spawn point is part of Agent 8's past memories. There is also dialogue for agent 8 failing a test too many times which involves them losing multiple lives and respawning too. They are also acknowledged in the manga.
