== Members ==
=== Callista Slug ===
The eldest member of Quantum 8, Callista is a walking squid encyclopedia for everything and anything related to Inkopolis Square and Plaza. She was called upon Captain Cuttlefish and the Squid Sisters during an accidental fall and the stars have aligned. Born from the Hispanic suburbs, Callista was born poor and she barely survived thanks to a young aspiring pop star. She can take on any challenge, easy or hard. Though sometimes her competitive nature cause go awry very quickly as she is very hot blooded. Aside from all that, she is very caring to her friends, especially Kelly. She is one of the Pro 4 members of the team, alongside Trace, Ryo and Haru. Her goal in the Grand Splatfest is to help her family's financial problems.
=== Ryo Mizushima ===
A prodigy sniper, Ryo always even loved to snipe, even before she got her first charger! She lives in a peaceful village with her brother Haru living ever so normally, that is for most of her life...Just last year, their parents were killed by the Octarian army. Due to their home being destroyed as well, they now live in their grandparents home. Since that faithful day, she never trusted Octarians ever. She joined Quantum 8 for a chance of redemption as the silent sniper Agent 5. She may seem like a simple girl but sniping is her ultimate passion and would never give it up for the world. As the second eldest of the team, she tries to help them in any way she can and calm others down like Kelly, LaShawn and even Callista. She is the only one without a goal for the Grand Splatfest, she only wants revenge and kill all Octarians in cold blood...er, ink.
=== Haru Mizushima ===
Living in a small village, Haru used to live a peaceful and simple life with his family. Then all heck struck loose when not only his parents are killed, but their home was destroyed by the Octarian army. Now living with their grandparents, Haru struggles to work on this new life. Like with his sister, he joined Quantum 8 to get revenge on the Octarians for losing everything. As one of the more older members, he tries to stay calm and collected at all times, unlike his sister who has sort of a berserk button. He too enjoys the simple things in like, but the other male members try to get him into something modern. His goal for the Grand Splatfest is to get enough money to have a home where he and his sister can live by themselves.
=== Trace St. Valentine ===
A young prodigy in the studies of music and art, Trace is a well educated young man. Strangely, even if he doesn't look like one, he is considered very wealthy. He just keeps it a secret. When working on his paintings, he always puts on music and instantly gets lost in the rhythm. Whatever genre he puts on, his style differs from painting to painting. As for why he is in Quantum 8...they kind of forced him to. No tragic backstory, no saying he was the one, nothing. They just added him for the extra slot. He's one of the more older members so he tends to be serious at all times, that includes missions as well. His goal for winning in the Grand Splatfest is to apply to the Inkblot Art Academy.
=== Spencer Cruz ===
Spencer is considered the most all around friendliest squid on the block. He is often hanging out with friends or other classmates. His closest friend is Lexi, who inspires him so much like how he inspires her. She wants to be her own team like his. Speaking of team, he joined Quantum 8 just for the fun of it, plus the opportunity to make some new friends. The eldest of the younger half, Spencer has considered himself more 'mature', though at times he will be a bit selfish and needy. He treats Kelly like a brother he never had so whenever Callista's not around, he is often there to protect. His goal for winning the Grand Splatfest is to move someplace calm and nicer.
=== Evander Jordan ===
Evander is just one of your normal, everyday, athletic kids. However he wants to pursue a career in baseball taking inspiration to one of his favorite players. This all changed when he is suddenly a Quantum 8 member out of nowhere. His energy can be a bit too chaotic and can get out of hand. He is often seen as Kelly's senior, aside from Callista. He's just as competitive as the rest and wants to compete in the Grand Splatfest. His goal for winning is to finally achieve his dream of becoming a baseball player.
