| 276 | !Part Ones Villain Group |
| 277 | [[folder: Part One’s Big Bad (SPOILERS UNMARKED)]] |
| 278 | !!Estefa Dora |
| 279 | One of the two main antagonists of part 1, he is a eccentric and charismatic seemingly Inkling Entrepreneur in Inkopolis who is known for his charity work and helping others, and invented “Water Block” which is used to protect against water. It is revealed that Estefa is an Inktoling who wishes to flood the world to destroy all Inklings and Octolings so Inktolings can be the dominate species and share a world with humanity, which he had plans of reviving so he would be held as a hero. |
| 280 | ---- |
| 281 | * AbsoluteXenophobe: In his reveal, despises quite literally all Inklings and Octolings to the point of wishing to transform them into Squids and Octopi and keeping them in the water while Inktolings rule. |
| 282 | |
| 283 | * AndIMustScream: What he plans to do. His plan is using his product water block on the civilians and then flood the world and cities with specially modified water, and the Inklings and Octolings who didn’t dissolve from not wearing water block, would transform back into their ancestors, Inklings into Squids and Octolings to Octopi, and, as confirmed by Lewis, these would have had sapience. |
| 284 | |
| 285 | * BigBadDuumvirate: With Lewis Coltrane of the first fic. |
| 286 | |
| 287 | * DieLaughing: Believing that the cities will despise The Squidbeak Splatoon, Estefa dies while chuckling and boasting that he won in the end. |
| 288 | |
| 289 | * EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Subverted for Gabbie, and despite it being confirmed the two in a relationship, they truly never cared for her and only used her similar abuse and neglect to get her on his side. |
| 290 | |
| 291 | * EvilAllAlong: Appeared to be a very lovable and charismatic entrepreneur before revealing his true motivations. |
| 292 | |
| 293 | * FauxAffablyEvil: Hides his complete vengeful attitude under a cheery and charismatic mask and his charity work. |
| 294 | |
| 295 | * {{Foil}}: To Misa Atsukin, the protagonist. Both are Inktolings who, due to different circumstances hide who they truly are and are shown to be hardworking members of society who are kind (or at least pretend to be on Estefa’s case) to others while they keep their true identity a secret. However, their circumstances and how they deal with trouble is different. Misa was never discriminated against due to their mother keeping her Inktoling identity a secret while saying they would get killed for being an Inktoling, having them feel terrible for being an Inktoling, while Estefa was abused for his childhood for being one, which lead him completely hating Inklings and Octolings and feeling like Inktolings are superior. Misa shows to be compassionate and loving towards people while working hard as a coffee shop worker, not wanting others to be hurt, while Estefa’s kidness is always a mask and he shows to despise every other person around him. While Estefa is shown to be loved by the cities, Misa is usually ignored at best and discriminated for being Non Binary, however, Estefa still didn’t show any gratefulness and allowed hatred to fester while Misa didn’t let the bullying stop them from trying to make something of their life and helping out others. |
| 296 | |
| 297 | * FreudianExcuse: Discussed and Ultimately Defied. Estefa grew up an orphan who was bullied by Inklings and Octolings alike, leading to a bitter hatred of them. After faking his death and changing his name and identity, he became a large businessman, entrepreneur, and scientist. However, his bitterness still retains and it is only heightened by seeing fellow Inktolings abused and killed and decides to find a way to bring Inklings and Octolings down, while Inktolings can finally be safe. However, Misa and Estefa have a back and forth fight during the climax in, which both raise good points, but showing just how Estefa is delusional and careless. While Estefa says that no one truly loved his old person (Raven Onyx), Misa is correct in that Estefa became a loved person as a scientist and could have helped fellow Inktolings and been an advocate for them, and while the treatment he suffered was harsh, it was vastly outweighed by him trying to trap all of them into fates worst than deaths and risking Inktolings, the very thing he claims to protect, lives. |
| 298 | |
| 299 | * ItsAllAboutMe: What Misa thinks, as he shows little actual care for Inktolings, considering he is fine with them getting killed in the flooding and explicitly says he would kill humans he would resurrect if they didn’t accept him as an Inktoling, which shows deep down Estefa cares for himself. |
| 300 | |
| 301 | * NotSoDifferentRemark: Surprisingly Subverted. Despite Misa and Him being Inktolings, he doesn’t see Misa as an Inktoling due to him thinking they didn’t suffer enough as an Inktoling and hid who they were around people for all their life, leading to growing bonds and sees them more of an Inkling. |
| 302 | |
| 303 | * NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist: While he attempts to reason his actions are for the good of the Inktolings, it falls flat in the end as it’s pointed out how many Inktolings would be killed anyway from the flooding and shows more of a petty egotism, |
| 304 | |
| 305 | * TakingYouWithMe: Attempts to pull this on Misa, who pulls them into the floods path in a last ditch effort to kill them. |
| 306 | |
| 307 | * TheSocialDarwinist: Has this mindset, believing himself and other Inktoling as the superiority and the best to survive against the nature of the world. |
| 308 | |
| 309 | * VillainsWithGoodPublicity: Is lover by the city for being a charming entrepreneur and creating a revolutionary invention that would solve dissolving in water. |

It is revealed he worked with TarTar in the mass blending of thousands of Octolings and is unwittingly responsible for Agent 8. |
| 316 | ---- |
| 317 | |
| 318 | * AssholeVictim: It’s hard to shed tears when this dude goes down. |
| 319 | |
| 320 | * AxCrazy: Shows to be completely unhinged. |
| 321 | |
| 322 | * EvenEvilHasStandards: EXTREMELY Downplayed, as Lewis does show to be shaken up over Eddie beating Marina nearly to death, however, is shown to wanted to make a sick joke on it, only stopping when knowing everyone would get on his case for it. |
| 323 | |
| 324 | * EvilIsPetty: His villainy was fueled due to Captain Cuddlefish, Callie and Marie criticizing his bad inventions. |
| 325 | |
| 326 | * FatalFlaw: He shows many of these in shades: |
| 327 | ** He shows a very big amount of {{pride}}, which causes him to overlook his flaws, which later leads to his |
| 328 | ** With this, his {{Sloth}} as he doesn’t manage to do any work himself, leads his inventions to be incredibly vulnerable. |
| 329 | ** And finally, his {{wrath}} ultimately leads to his downfall, as his constant abuse of the Octoling Soldiers force them to turn on him, which leads to his death. |
| 330 | |
| 331 | * FromNobodyToNightmare: Apparently was just a regular smart person who seemed to have been a decent person before his descent into villainy. |
| 332 | |
| 333 | * HateSink: Absolutely NO good things can be said about a Lewis, from his xenophobia, sadism, crass humor and general unappealing nature. |
| 334 | |
| 335 | * HatedByAll: Absolutely no one ever likes this guy, not even anyone in his own group. |
| 336 | |
| 337 | * ItsPersonalWithTheDragon: He was the main one person working with Commander TarTar in mass blending thousands of Octolings, including Michelle’s older sister, Kara’s Mother and Sarah’s friend Jake, and tortured Agent 8, Isa, which leads him having more personal villainy than Estefa. |
| 338 | |
| 339 | * KilledMidSentence: Attempts to reveal one more secrete to Isa before killing her, before he gets impaled by Sally and falling off a cliff. |
| 340 | |
| 341 | * PlagiarismInFiction: Stole DJ Octavio’s devices in order to pass them off as his inventions. |
| 342 | |
| 343 | * {{Sadist}}: Is shown to be the most sadistic person on his team, enjoying in pain and suffering that is inflicted on others. |
| 344 | |
| 345 | * SmugSnake: Has an extreme high view of himself. |
| 346 | |
| 347 | * StealingTheCredit: Believes that Cap’n Cuddlefish and The Squid Sisters stole his work, while in reality, his inventions were poor and usually copies. This is ironic, has he has no qualms using Octavio’s and Tartar’s machines to his use. |
| 348 | |
| 349 | * TheSociopath: More of a low-functioning example, due to his unhinged, lack of overall planning and his general impulsiveness. |
| 350 | |
| 351 | * StupidScientist: Despite all his boasting, Lewis himself isn’t very smart, as most of his genius inventions were mostly rehashing of other villains works, such as DJ Octavio’s Calamari Incantation, and as the Squid Sisters puts it, his original inventions were extremely amateurish at best. |
