3[[folder:X (Agent X)]]
4Awakened from a 12,000 year stasis, he is Dr. Light's final creation. Is given the honorary designation of "Agent X" by Cap'n Cuttlefish after the Kamabo Corp. incident.
5----
6!! Tropes:
7* AllLovingHero: He has his limits, but generally he tries to see the best in anyone if he can and wants to bring peace.
8* BerserkButton: Removing someone's free will.
9* BoxingLessonsForSuperman: X gets some lessons in Ansetsuken from Dr. Light.
10* HonestCorporateExecutive: Resolves to be this when he takes over Kamabo Corp and rebrands it into Arcadia Corporation.

12[[/folder]]
13
14[[folder:Artemis Delos (Agent 5)]]
15Orion's older sister and a headstrong, hotheaded girl who mains Dualies.
16----
17!! Tropes:
18* GenkiGirl: Is a cheerful social butterfly.
19* GeniusDitz: Actually has better grades than Karlene and Hinata, but only because they do study sessions. Iris finds out that Artemis has issues with her attention span, which is holding her back.
20* HasAType: Cute Octoling girls.
21* HeightAngst: She's a foot shorter than her Inkling peers and has been poked fun at for it, though Iris thinks it makes her more adorable.
22
23[[/folder]]
24
25[[folder:Orion Delos (Agent 6)]]
26Artemis' younger brother, quieter and more reserved, but also smart and a skilled Charger sharpshooter. After [[spoiler:becoming part of Leviathan]], he finds that he feels like he's missing something in terms of his gender identity.
27----
28!! Tropes:
29* BerserkButton: Hurting her sister. The Cohozuna finds this out the hard way, though this also works against him when Hyper Storm H captures her, allowing Ballade to ambush him from behind.
30* DudeLooksLikeALady: At the end of ''"The Pleasant Phantom Thief"'' he undergoes physical therapy that alters his body to be basically female in every way aside from his sexual organs.
31* InstantExpert: Downplayed - due to his smarts, he's able to quickly get a grasp of how to perform the Hadouken, though his first attempts are functionally similar to Dan Hibiki's Gadouken. It's still enough to allow him to stun Hyper Storm H briefly.
32* IntersexTribulations: Discovers after [[spoiler:fusing into Leviathan]] that he identifies as, at the very least, non-binary, preferring a more feminine body and appearance while still using male pronouns. Unfortunately, this gets him [[spoiler:sexually assaulted by two bullies]], resulting in some trauma, but he still manages to gather the courage to continue pursuing his experimentation with help from his friends, resulting in him [[spoiler:fusing with Artemis]] and discovering that his gender dysphoria is caused by his ''lack'' of female genitalia (rather than having male genitalia instead, as he finds he's most comfortable with both), causing him to identify as intersex.
33
34[[/folder]]
35
36[[folder:Marie (Agent 2)]]
37One of the two Squid Sisters, Marie recruited Artemis and Orion to save Callie and the Great Zapfish.

43
44[[/folder]]
45
46[[folder:Callie (Agent 1)]]
47One of the two Squid Sisters, Callie was brainwashed by DJ Octavio when she went to visit him.
48----
49!! Tropes:
50* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Was at first, before Marie fixed her. [[spoiler:Except the brainwashing is much deeper-rooted, and she's currently a sleeper agent for Octavio, who is actively reprogramming herself to prevent herself from being reverted to her old self again.]]
51* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: Finds out to her shock that she actually has attracted the eye of multiple Octoling girls who she befriended while she was working for the Octarians.
52* GenkiGirl: Well... It's ''Callie'', of course she is.
53* {{Robosexual}}: Has a crush on Zero, and started going out with him at the first opportunity.
54
55[[/folder]]
56
57[[folder:Ethan Springs (Agent 3)]]
58One of the original two Agents who fought against Octavio in Octo Valley. A Roller main and something of a battle junkie. Is currently dating Marino.
59----
60!! Tropes:
61* AmicableExes: With Ayane - they used to date, but it didn't work out. He realizes later based on a suggestion from Marino that it was because he [[LikeBrotherAndSister subconsciously saw Ayane as more of a sister than a lover]].
62* BloodKnight: Is a self-admitted battle junkie who gets a thrill from fighting worthy foes.
63* IdiotHero: Not as much as, say, Goggles, but he does trip up intellectually from time to time.
64* LikeBrotherAndSister: Between him and Ayane, though he only figures out this is the case with help from Marino.
65
66[[/folder]]
67
68[[folder:Ayane Higashi (Agent 4)]]

70----
71!! Tropes:
72* AmicableExes: With Ethan - they used to date, but it didn't work out.
73* IfYouEverDoAnythingToHurtHer: Ayane makes it clear she'd yank out Marino's skull and beat her to death with it if she hurts Ethan or breaks his heart.
74* TheStoic: By comparison to the other Agents. The fact that she actually becomes rather emotive during an argument with Ethan blindsides everyone else.
75
76[[/folder]]
77
78[[folder:Axl Slade (Agent 7)]]
79A former Lieutenant in the Octarian Army and Iris' first (and for a while only) friend, he's a Mimic Octopus capable of manipulating his form to a degree that other Octolings can't. Usually uses Dualies.

82* CainAndAbel: The Abel in his dynamic with Lumine, to the point where the latter threatened to kill him when they were younger.
83* ClosetKey: For Orion.
84* MaternalDeathBlameTheChild: Hinted that he suspects that his father blames him for his mother's DeathByChildbirth. His older brother Lumine, on the other hand, absolutely does.
85* VoluntaryShapeshifter: As a Mimic Octopus, he's capable of manipulating his form and ink around him to change his shape in various ways, though there are limits to this ability.
86

108----
109!! Tropes:
110* GenkiGirl: Much like Bobble Hat, though this is due to a mental condition. She's positive about nearly ''everything''.
111

113
114[[folder:Liam (Agent 11)]]
115The leader of an ink battle team consisting of himself, Orion, Koji and Axl. Uses a Roller.

118* BullyHunter: Protected Koji from bullies before he transitioned, and stuck around him so the bullies wouldn't try again, resulting in their friendship.
119* HairTriggerTemper: Has anger issues, and he's aware of it. It used to be bad enough that he drove Karlene away years ago, before they reconciled.

121[[/folder]]
122

124A trans guy and Liam's second in command on their ink batting team. Uses a Blaster.
125----
126!! Tropes:
127* ChessmasterSidekick: While Liam is no slouch in terms of smarts and ability, he has anger issues and tunnel vision that Koji is around to restrain.
128
129[[/folder]]
130
131[[folder:Zero (Agent 0)]]

154* SentimentalDrunk: She gets very friendly with Pearl when she's had a few bottles, ranging from gentle cooing to "Do me now!".
155* ShrinkingViolet: At times. She very much turns into a flustered wreck when Pearl teases her about how attractive she is in front of everyone else.

178----
179!! Tropes:
180* AdaptationalHeroism: Was programmed to be a heroic and empathetic person by Ciel, whereas Merga in VideoGame/FreedomPlanet2 was the BigBad blinded by MoralMyopia and RevengeBeforeReason, and Magma Dragoon was a traitor to the Maverick Hunters who destroyed Sky Lagoon (likely killing thousands of people) for a chance to fight X and Zero. Though considering ''both'' her components, it remains to be seen whether she'll stay heroic or not.
181* BloodKnight: She's a female version of Magma Dragoon, ''of course she is.''
182* CombatMedic: As part of her search and rescue kit, she also has in-built healing spray.

211----
212!! Tropes:
213* HappinessInSlavery: Or, at least, emotionlessness in slavery. Due to being forced to work for Kamabo against her will, she decided to undergo the Sanitization process willingly so she wouldn't feel utterly miserable doing so, and so she could focus entirely on her music.

219----
220!! Tropes:
221* AdaptationalSpeciesChange: Went from a robot to an actual platypus.

227An Inkling medical postgraduate and Professor Gaudile's assistant, and Marino's roommate.
228----
229!! Tropes:

233[[/folder]]
234
235[[folder:Mr. Grizz]]
236The head of Grizzco, he's willing to pay out quite a bit of money in exchange for the collection of golden eggs. Seems to know more about the human era than he should.

238!! Tropes:
239* CorruptCorporateExecutive: As per usual, sending a bunch of teens into a highly hostile environment.
240* LooseLips: Reveals that he's aware of the term "Robot Master" when he first "appears". Zero finds this suspicious.

257----
258!! Tropes:
259* CrazyPrepared: He developed his own set of security systems in the base he's stationed in explicitly in anticipation of the New Squidbeak Splatoon infiltrating it, and powered up his ShapeshifterModeLock device in advance of their arrival in his lab.
260* TheDreaded: The fact that he's involved causes Iris to suggest the New Squidbeak Splatoon should be more prepared for whatever he might have in store. Turns out she's right.
261* NonActionBigBad: So far has shown no combat capacity, but his experiments are still dangerous enough that his direct involvement isn't necessary... Yet.
262* ShapeshifterModeLock: The device he created forces Inklings and Octolings into swim mode and prevents them from changing back.
263
264[[/folder]]
265

288* MaternalDeathBlameTheChild: Blames Axl for their mother's death.
289* RelatedInTheAdaptation: Axl and Lumine had no relation in the X series, aside from being New Generation Reploids. Here, they're siblings, and in fact Lumine is ''older'' than Axl.
290
291[[/folder]]
292
293[[folder:Scarface]]
294One of the Octarian generals.
295----
296!! Tropes:
297* BloodKnight: Is eager to engage in honorable battle with the New Squidbeak Splatoon. The feeling is mutual with Ethan.
298* MyCountryRightOrWrong: Absolutely understands why the New Squidbeak Splatoon are fighting and why so many Octolings are fleeing Octarian society, but he is fighting to prevent his country from collapsing entirely.
299* TheRival: With Ethan, and the feeling is mutual, considering Ethan is ''eager'' to fight him when he finds out Scarface has appeared.

301[[/folder]]
302
303
304[[folder:Botos]]
305One of the Octarian generals. Not an Octoling, unlike the others, but more like the Octo Samurai. Like his [[VideoGame/MegaManXCommandMission Command Mission counterpart]] he's a greedy coward who sucks up to his superiors for more power.

308* DirtyCoward: Which is why Ethan and Ayane can't help but make fun of and troll him at every opportunity.
309* FatBastard: Like his original counterpart, which his enemies also make fun of.
310
311[[/folder]]

316[[folder:Commander Tartar]]

323[[/folder]]

329!! Tropes:
330* KilledOffForReal: His AI degrading enough that he neglected to back himself up resulted in his demise once Gamma was destroyed.
331* VillainsWantMercy: As usual, once things don't go his way, he prostrates himself and begs to be spared. His luck finally runs out, however.

354----
355!! Tropes:
356* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:Finding no other purpose after Wily and any viable successor are gone, they accept the invitation to redeem themselves, cleaning up their own messes and becoming Ciel's lab assistants.]]
