Have you ever heard of a “conlang” before?

A “conlang”, short for “constructed language”, is just that: a language that was constructed. It may sound niche or nerdy, but some have become so well known that even Google Translate has a translation option for some. Esperanto, for instance, is a conlang. I, myself, am working on a conlang, named “Ilinian”. The important things to note are:

  • Ilinian has 3 grammatical genders. Masculine (names and words ending in -o), feminine (names and words ending in -a), and neuter (names and words ending in -i).
  • Certain letters are pronounced differently. “C” is “CH”, “X” is “SH”, “Q” is “TH”, and “H” is usually pronounced the same but is a bit weird.
  • Accent marks decide what syllable is emphasized. If there is none, emphasize the penultimate syllable.
  • Names require special attention. The name order of one's home nation is to be used, and family names are not to be changed beyond making them match pronunciation. Given names and middle names must match the gender of the individual, and given/middle names that don't match up (for example, mine) need to be altered to match. With my name it would become: “Arjentu-wi Triyon-i Arkeiyik”.

I've actually taken the liberty of localizing many things in the Splatoon series.

Notes There was no equivalent phrase for "out the wazoo", so I instead decided to just wong it with whatever sounded best with "wazoo". It is not feminine, despite the definite article, but rather completely genderless. It, in general, breaks every rule of the language. If I were officially localizing it, I'd have replaced it with something better.

Marina Ida (Unfinished)

Fangsiya Marine est una caraktra de Splatun 2. Qeiya est una de duwamer deha Of qe Huk, avec-Hime-ya. En-Splatun 2, qeixa hosteve Inkopolis Nyus et Festivale deho Colorolor. Qeiya est en-Splatun 3, de Damp Soks ft. Of qe Huk. Et, qeiya est una caraktra granda en-Splatun 2 ~ Misyo OKTO-et-Splatun 3 ~ Said Ordhr. Se-coloro signeyo est tailijazo.

Se-agara deha voxa est Peralta Alis-a.

~Appearance~ Marina is an Octoling that appears to be taller than most Inklings and Octolings. She has dark brown skin, teal eyes with reddish-pink horizontal pupils (which real-life octopuses have) in the shape of an infinity symbol and two eyelashes each, and dark brown tentacles with teal tips that can also change completely to one color; they are kept very long, arriving past her waist. She also has dark teal eyebrows that are constantly downturned in a "worried" expression, a teal gradient on her fingers, and a beauty mark at the left of her lips. Like Pearl, and unlike other Octolings, her sharp teeth are in the center on both the top and bottom, instead of being asymmetrical. She has also stated that she has multiple hearts, like how real-life octopuses do.

Her outfit consists of a sleeveless, high-collared black top that bares her midriff, showing a teal navel piercing. It has a large, mostly undone silver zipper with an infinity symbol-shaped hole resembling the pupils of her eyes. She has black puffy shorts with a diagonal waistline and slanted grooves that light up in sync with the music; under them are teal tights and black boots with big undone silver zippers with 8-shaped holes like the one on her top. She wears large black headphones with teal rings on the sides of them, covering her ears, and black fingerless gloves. As seen in Splatfest artwork, she also occasionally wears glasses. During Splatfests, the teal on her design changes to match the color of the team she chose, except for her eyebrows.

In the Octo Expansion, Marina wears a more hip-hop attire than her pop stage outfit, somewhat resembling rapper Tupac Shakur. She wears a white bandana with light gray tentacle designs wrapped around her head, a long, silver chain necklace with an infinity-symbol pendant (similar to her zippers from her stage outfit) around her neck, a black wristwatch and a black chain bracelet on her right arm, a white turtleneck crop top, aqua colored capris, and silver slip-on shoes with a bow on top and white soles. She also retains her headphones. The gear items given out by the Marina amiibo are replicas of Marina's Octo Expansion outfit, namely the Marinated Headphones, Marinated Top, and Marinated Slip-Ons.

As an Octoling warrior, Marina's tentacles were bob-length and she wore the Octoling Goggles, Octoling Armor, and Octoling Boots with Elite Octoling seaweed on the sides of her head, first shown in Marina's chat room and again on the back of the Splatoon 2 Live in Makuhari -Tentalive- limited-edition slipcover.

During the Final Fest, she wore a high-collared tight silver dress with a number-eight cut at the chest and very long sleeves turning into gloves, gray leggings with a darker diamond pattern, and matching thigh-length heeled boots covered by her dress. She also had two diamond shapes painted on her left cheek and a different pair of headphones, with diamond shapes instead of circles.

In Splatoon 3, Marina wears an orange suit with a subtle zig-zag pattern, matching pants, and a black tube top. She has new headphones with a glowing, sea-green circle pattern on each ear; they are connected by two orange tubes, with a small white square on either temple. Her gloves now expose her knuckles and the back of her hands, and she wears black high heels with a blue underside. The tips of Marina's tentacles now have a night sky pattern, possibly to contrast Pearl's light yellow, although her sideburns and eyebrows remain teal.

~Personality and traits~ Marina is more reserved than her bandmate Pearl. She speaks in a sweet, gentle manner, and can get very sassy in response to others teasing her. Despite her shyness, she does not appear to be concerned about expressing herself. She is forgetful and has been observed to forget the news she and Pearl are broadcasting. Her timidity shows when she sees an Inkling watching her through the window; when she notices them, she smiles awkwardly and waves. This behavior likely comes from the fact that many believe her to be an Inkling even though she learned the Inkling language recently and that she looks very different from the Inklings; her Octoling-like appearance was said to simply be a new fashion trend before Agent 8 came to Inkopolis Square. Marina also has a crush on Pearl, being described as a "maiden in love" on Splatoon Base, and making a manga about her where she is drawn as a bishōjo, drawing flowers, sparkles and hearts around Pearl. While this is never explicitly stated in-game, Marina shows her affection towards her by playfully poking fun at Pearl's small stature during newscasts, tackling and nuzzling her in a hug after they win the final battle of Octo Expansion, and becoming extremely devastated when Pearl floats around the idea of their band breaking up.

Marina is renowned to be very technologically skilled, with Pearl describing her as being "too smart for her own good" in the Octo Expansion. This is demonstrated with the Shifty Stations, a series of stages created by Marina for Splatfests using advanced Octarian technology, with the mechanics from Octo Canyon appearing in them, as well as floating rocks. She is also capable of hacking Kamabo Corporation, allowing Agent 8 to pass a test using the data collected from their previous attempts, and can hack their CQ-80 device to show her chat room or release a distress signal. In the final battle of the Octo Expansion, she can use her laptop to analyze the NILS Statue in a few seconds, learning about the strength of its cannon and its use of sunlight to charge up power. She is portrayed as being obsessed with the machinery found in various stages, such as Sturgeon Shipyard, Port Mackerel and the bucketwheel excavator in Piranha Pit. She often utilizes similar machinery in the Shifty Station layouts she designs; however, she does not like being considered a "nerd" in this regard.

Marina also plays a keytar with Squid Sisters and Off the Hook decals on the neck, which she does during live performances of Muck Warfare; her laptop is decorated similarly. She is a fan of shōjo manga, with her naming the Shifty Stations after them in the Japanese version and practicing crosshatching in secrecy, and can draw, her drawings seen in the Octo Expansion before the fight against Tartar as portraits of Agent 8 and Pearl.

In Japanese, Marina's speech is occasionally rendered in katakana, indicating an accent of some sort. Unlike DJ Octavio, she does not speak completely in katakana. However, in the Splatune 2 and Octotune liner notes, her lyrics are entirely in katakana, which is supposed to show that her singing is in a different language. Her preferred personal pronoun is ワタシ (watashi), which is used mostly by women or during formal speech. The fact that she pluralizes it to ワタシら (watashi ra) rather than ワタシたち (watashi tachi) seems to indicate that she uses it to sound formal and not to sound feminine. She also usually speaks with formal variants and conjugations. When learning Japanese, the formal 丁寧語 (teinei-go) is usually the first taught to pupils, as is the pronoun わたし, since they are catch-all and useful in more situations. This shows that Marina has only recently learned the language she is speaking. She also tends to make many malapropisms, further indicating this. Marina's text mostly extends syllables with the "~" character, and her sentences often end with "♪". This makes it read as if she is singing her lines. Marina refers to Pearl with the honorific "senpai", which is an honorific used to address somebody of an elder social rank in a field or trade. This is due to Pearl having taught Marina about Inkling society and also might be because Pearl is three years older than her.
