Squid Sisters

Caroline "Callie" and Marie Cuttlefish (French: Caroline et Marie Cuttlefish, Latin/VML: Carolina et Maria Craigiae Sepiida), more popularly known as the Squid Sisters (French: Calamazones; Latin/VML: Sorores Decapoda), is a pair of cousins popularly known for their heavy influence upon inklingkind through music, mostly for creating Calamari Inkantation, and its original melody Chorus of Calamary County, both of which were now classed as unclassifiable supermotivational propaganda music by the Social Météo for its effects on both inklings and octolings.

==== Callie ====
Callie is a very fashionable Inkling and has a more 'edgy' design in comparison to her cousin. Her tentacles, which are black with a purplish-pink tinge at the ends, are very long and tied in a large bow on the back of her head, leaving the ends to dangle, along with a bang swept to the right of her face. She has large, angular eyes with gold irises and light-brown pupils in the shape of a plus and has a beauty mark on her left cheek. Her black eye markings end in small eyelash-like points and her eyebrows are large and oval-shaped. Her ears are slightly narrower, longer, and upturned than those of the average Inkling, and on them, she wears a pair of chunky, milky white earrings.
==== Marie ====
Marie is a very fashionable Inkling and has a more laid-back design in comparison to her cousin. Her tentacles, which are light gray, are tied in a large bow on the right side of her head, with the ends wrapped around to the other side and curling up slightly at the ends, along with a bang swept to the left of her face. Marie also has a faint green tinge at the ends of her tentacles. She has large, downturned eyes with gold irises and light-brown pupils in the shape of a plus. Her eye markings end in small, slightly curved points, her eyebrows are large and oval-shaped, and she has a beauty mark on her right cheek. Her ears are slightly narrower, longer, and downturned than those of the average Inkling, and on them, she wears a pair of chunky, milky white earrings.
=== History ===
The two grew up in Calamari County in the mid-2000s with their veteran grandfather Craig. After their song Chorus of Calamari County became excessively popular, they had enough to move to Inkopolis.
There, in the mid-2010s, they made Calamari Inkantation, which is a remix of their aforementioned song, which became a huge hit among the inkling population, so much so that it had a physiological-psychological effect on the populace, which was also right smack during their major power crisis caused by the rival octarians.
Soon after, they grew apart, with Callie getting captured by Octavio in 2017 when Marie least expected it. However, whilst she and the other New Squidbeak Splatoon members (which are now a satellite of the Caserne nationale), were about to defeat Octavio in Octo Canyon, a diplomat from the now-established Caelorussian Union ran in and declared that the Union was now planning an annexation on both inkling and octarian soil during the Communist Revolution. With no time to react, infinitesimal mourabitean forces immediately broke in and raided the underground facility and started sacking it, capturing both the duo and Octavio in the process.
The War of Providence of 2019 saw Inkopolis, the County and Octo Canyon remain under Moricounien (now Aschsenland at that point) control. That year, the duo and Octavio were released, along with several other inklings and octolings captured for anti-communist sentiment in 2018.
The duo would be arrested again, along with every inkling and octarian in the country during the Autumn in 2021 due to a technicality being that since they fought against each other, the Moricounien government declared that they were being racist to each other (inkling historians deadass say that their victory over them in WWII was simply because they had more limbs). They were all released in November of that year.
After Isabelle's election in 2024, she directly asked the two to be concurrent Resident Representatives of the County and Inkopolis, with them reporting to Pearl, their superior Consummate Resident Representative, while Marina, a convert octoling, rules over Octo Canyon and Valley. They approved, but only if their title were to be changed to Idols instead of Resident Representatives.
In 2025, recent studies slapped the duo with a million-euro fine for creating a song that has lasting psychological effects, regardless of whether it was beneficial or not. They paid the fine, lest they be imprisoned, in exchange of restricting the song to wartime propaganda.
