=== Appearance ===
Gary is DK West
=== Personality ===
Gary is usually a cheerful, energetic person with a big heart. He loves getting to meet new people and enjoys spending time with his friends. He also strives to comfort people if they feel down, believing that everyone deserves a little bit of love.
Gary also has a strong sense of justice, fighting for what he thinks is right. He usually tries to find a solution that'll satisfy both sides of the party involved, but usually fails.
Despite his cheerfulness and usual passive behavior, Gary can get aggressive if pushed to his limits. However, he strives to be polite and respectful whenever nothing is directly threatening him or those he cares about.
However, Gary does have low self-esteem, which leads to him putting himself down in order to avoid conflict. He also is prone to panic attacks.
Gary's interests include video games, swimming in ink, reading, singing, and hanging out with his friends.
=== Skills ===
Gary has the abilities of an average Inkling. He possesses a Splattershot and Hero Shot Replica he can use to shoot ink. He can also turn into a squid and swim around in the ink he creates.
Gary can also teleport across vast distances, which was given to him during his time in a multi-universal army.
Gary has also demonstrated vocal manipulation abilities. Using his voice, he can create powerful shockwaves which can shatter steel at their fullest potential. The shockwaves can be generated from screams, high notes, or excited shouting. He can also amplify his voice to a non-weaponized level.
On top of his supernatural powers, Gary is also a good singer, and can be quite persuasive. He also gives good hugs.
== History ==
=== Backstory ===
Gary is from a seperate universe from the main Splatoon universe of World Between Worlds.
At a young age, he was kidnapped by an army and was forced to perform acts that threatened multiple universes. During this time, he was gifted abilities that were supposed to help him with his job. However, with the help of Grand Dad, he was able to break free and join the main WBW.
At first, Gary was shy and reclusive, often lashing out at those who he thought were dangerous out of paranoia. After meeting Agent 3, though, Gary has become more open towards people he doesn't know. He still has a lot of regret for what he did in his past life, but he tries to put on a brave face and make amends. He has also become more transparent about his past in his army, despite how much emotional pain it causes him.
=== Silver Age ===
Gary took charge during DJ Octavio and Commander Tartar's attempt to take over Inkopolis, helping protect the entire city from Tartar's laser. He even came to a temporary truce with Octavio, although this was short-lived.
During Bowser's attempted takeover of Midway Town, Gary recovered one of the Chaos Emeralds. He later aided Grand Dad and Knuckles in their final battle against the Koopa King.
During the Light Between Worlds event, Gary was transformed into a trophy, alongside all of WBW's other inhabitants (sans Pearl). However, he was changed back after Galeem's defeat.
=== Definitive Edition ===
When Plankton attacked Midway Town under the guise of George Bigg, Gary helped the Wildfire Team, as well as Pearl and Spy, during the final battle. Utilizing his Killer Wail, he was able to weaken Plankton's Biggbot to a point where Lord Darius was easily able to finish it off. This event inspired Gary to take on more of a heroic role in the town.
Later on, during Octavio's second attempt at conquering Inkopolis, Agent 3 trusted Gary to keep an eye out for him in Midway Town. He agreed to this, but nothing has come out of it as of yet.
