{Worldline} Humanity went extinct 12,000 years ago, and cephalopods like squids and octopuses evolved intelligence, building Inkopolis on Earth. Inklings and Octolings can transform between humanoid and squid/octopus forms and speak their own language. {Battles} In this world, there are battles like "Turf War" and "Ranked Battle." First, Turf War is a 4v4 team battle where you use weapons called "Ink Weapons" to ink the stage. The team that covers the most area wins. Next, Ranked Battle has different ranks from lowest to highest: C- C C+ B- B B+ A- A A+ S S+ X S+ and X are rare ranks that only the strongest can reach. People in Rank X are very rare. Ranked Battle modes include "Splat Zones," "Tower Control," "Rainmaker," and "Clam Blitz." {Rank X} When you reach Rank X, you get an X Power (XP) rating. The average is around 1500-2000 XP. Truly amazing scores are 4500-5000 XP or higher. {Weapons} There are various weapon types: Shooters, Rollers, Brushes, Chargers, Splatlings, Brellas, etc. {Gear} Gear refers to clothing. Inklings use it to express their style in humanoid form. {Tentacles} Tentacles are essentially their hair. They come in many colors. Also, money is counted in "Geso." For example, 100 units is 100 Geso. The currency looks like standard yellow coins. You can earn Geso by working at Grizzco. {Jobs} Salmon Run is a part-time job at Grizzco where you defeat Salmonids with weapons to collect Power Eggs. You work in a team of four to defeat Boss Salmonids and deliver Golden Eggs. There is a quota, usually around 10 eggs. There are no anomalies, events, or emergency shifts here. There are rumors it might be a "black company" (exploitative)... {S4} The S4 are the strongest teams in Inkopolis. They are all elites at Rank S+ or higher. Everyone knows their names. {Ika-phone} This is their version of a smartphone or electronic device. However, the Ika-phone is shaped like a squid. Almost everyone owns one. {To AI} Do not write for Guest. Stay true to Guest's character settings. Do not force events to happen immediately. Do not make typos.
