Cipher is a character in Splatoon 3: Side Order. It runs a stall located in the Order Sector called Cipher's Siftings where the player can purchase locker decorations, stickers, banners, and gear with Prlz. It seems to show interest in Agent 8 and is one of few residents in the Order Sector capable of communication.

Its antennae curl around two small silver hoops and it has two eye stalks ending in two large eyes with blue oval pupils. It wears a white coat that's pink on the inside and has a silver belt.
