Judd

Judd (Japanese: ジャッジくん Jajji-kun) is a cat in Splatoon. Unlike other characters, he seems to play a bigger role in Splatoon's story that remains a mystery. In multiplayer, he plays the role of referee in Turf Wars . When he's done judging, he can be found sleeping on a trash bin in the Inkopolis Plaza. The player can talk to Judd and he will give advice as well as a cash bonus depending on the player's online battle vibe that increases and decreases with wins and losses. He will only give one cash bonus per vibe per stage rotation.

Personality and traits

Judd was born with the incredible ability to judge turf area at a glance to separate the winners from the losers. It may look like he’s wearing a snazzy cat tuxedo, but that’s actually just the naturally occurring pattern of his fur. He is also a bit lazy just like most cats.
