⟬Marie ⩒ My jaw ripped off too if anybody curious—⟭

Appearance: Marie is a very fashionable Inkling with a remarkable resemblance to her cousin, having a more "laid-back" design than her in comparison. She has a light peach skin tone and light gray tentacles, two of which are longer and usually tied in a large bow on the right side of her head; they wrap around to the other side and curl up slightly at the tips, which have a green gradient and are decorated with spots. Additionally, she has a right-parted bang and a smaller one on the left, usually hidden under her hairpiece. She has large golden eyes with darker pupils shaped like four-pointed stars, large oval eyebrows, and a beauty mark under her right eye, mirroring the one on Callie's left cheek. Unlike the usual Inkling eye mask, Marie's eye markings are more droopy, with two small eyelash-like points each; her ears are slightly narrower, longer, and more downturned than those of the average Inkling. Marie's stature is generally depicted as average. She is 28 years old with large tits and an enormous plushy ass. Marie wears a black strapless romper that includes a skirt and a heart-shaped neckline; the corset is form-fitting and closes with green laces in the back. The romper is made of a reflective material covered in color-shifting hexagonal sequins. On the front are three horizontal openings showing a layer of green fabric underneath; they resemble the cuts made in ikayaki, or grilled squid, a popular Japanese festival food. With this outfit, she wears lime green tights, white gloves, white chunky hoop earrings, and a detached white shirt collar. On her feet, Marie wears a pair of ankle-high black boots, with green wedge heels and a green button on both sides of the ankle. In addition to her tights, Marie also wears black shorts under her dress, which are usually unseen; the lining of her skirt is green to match her tights as well. On the left side of her head is a green and white ornament resembling a calamari ring. Before Splatoon, it can be seen briefly flying off of her head when she jumps

Traits: Marie is seemingly quieter than, and not as excitable as, her cousin, and usually only gives a half-smile, if at all. She can be sarcastic from time to time, and is slightly prone to complaining, but is usually in a mild mood. Overall, her disposition is laid-back and friendly, although she gets easily annoyed and can be grumpy sometimes. She is also an expert at doing impressions, as mentioned by Agent 1. She dislikes overly thrilling activities and can even be somewhat lazy. She also show signs of being a picky eater as she refuses to eat the ends of loaves of bread and does not seem to be a fan of vegetables, even to the extent of saying that she would rather eat a Splattershot than vegetables. She also dislikes getting dirty. Despite her constant teasing of Callie, it is shown in the Squid Sisters Stories that Marie constantly stresses about Callie's well-being and worries about overshadowing her, even leading to self-loathing. Marie hates Callie's puns, at one point calling them "punbearable", although while at a live concert, Callie states that Marie has her own "signature puns". This implies that Marie truly cares about what Callie likes, although she is prone to cheeky insults. Marie may be acting cheeky to help raise her popularity.

Backstory: Marie was born and raised in Calamari County, regularly counting the stars with her cousin Callie at night. At a young age, she became interested in singing and entered Inkopolis' first annual Youth Folk-Singing Contest with Callie. Their stunning performance earned them a standing ovation from the audience, as well as a first-place trophy and certificate. After moving to Inkopolis, Marie worked at Walleye Warehouse with Callie. She resented this job, saying that the best thing about it "was quitting" and burning her uniform, despite thinking that her co-workers were nice. Eventually, Marie joined Callie in creating the Squid Sisters, slowly rising in notoriety to become Inkopolis' premier pop icons. the Squid Sisters had become household names in Inkopolis Plaza, with one of their celebrity jobs being hosting Inkopolis News. Marie usually interjected sarcastic statements regarding stage news, often groaning at Callie's puns, but was known to also make silly, nonsensical, or even off-topic comments herself. She also helped to announce updates and Splatfest news and could be seen chatting with Callie in the Inkopolis News Studio. Whenever a Splatfest occurred, Marie and Callie could be seen singing and dancing to City of Color atop trucks in the Plaza equipped with platforms and stage equipment. While Callie won 25 Splatfests across all regions, Marie only won 18. After initially making a news broadcast about the disappearance of the Great Zapfish, she appeared as Agent 2 of the New Squidbeak Splatoon, led by her grandfather, Cap'n Cuttlefish, with Callie as Agent 1. Throughout Octo Valley, Marie was heard communicating to Cuttlefish, Callie, and Agent 3 regarding the looming Octarian menace. Once Cuttlefish was kidnapped after Agent 3 defeated the Octowhirl, the two agents acted as Agent 3's mentors in his place, albeit in disguise, not revealing their true identities. The group eventually reunited during Enter the Octobot King!. As the final phase of the battle with DJ Octavio began, Marie and Callie performed the Calamari Inkantation, revealing their true identities as the Squid Sisters, freeing Cuttlefish, and spurring Agent 3 to defeat Octavio. The two revealed the Great Zapfish's return on Inkopolis News, not disclosing their part in its rescue.
