The following are an Inkling's genetics.
Language
Main Article:Inkling (language)
Inklings have evolved to speak in clicks, whistles and other inanamite noises. Inklings have swearwords, as seen in an explicit inkling song.
Made Of
Inklings are generally made up of Ink, Water and oil. This allows them to change their shape to that of a squid, as well as swim through ink and slip through grates, an ability that they can use for flanking opponents. Inklings are heard to melt into ink once they are old enough to die, however, a unique organ that responds to enemy ink causes them to be "splatted" forcing them to respawn at a spawning point set up especially for them and their teammates.
Abilities
Inklings' gear comes with randomized abilities. Abilities are soaked into the inklings' ink, inside its body, causing it to play some role in the inklings' Turf War, Rainmaker, Splat Zones and Tower Control matches.
Ink Color
Inklings have color-changing tentacles, known to morph into a different color every battle. These tentacles, noticeably, have "sensors" in them that read Special weapon gauges, glowing whenever one of these special weapons are ready.
