## Appearance

### Huki

Huki is a sanitized octoling, meaning he has the standard black eyes with green rings and pale green skin. He styles his hair in the punk octoling haircut, which has the standard sanitized octoling hair color, except it fades to pink at the end, indicating he's not fully sanitized. He wears a black, sleeveless crop top and 3 different glow bracelets, with a yellow one on his left wrist and a pink and blue one on his right. He sports black shorts and black cargo boots.

After his sanitization however, his hair is fully blue and green, and he no longer wears the glow sticks.

### Erese

Erese is a standard inkling, and so she has tan skin. She has medium mint hair and purple eyes. She wears a backwards purple ball cap. She also sports a hot pink hoodie with white strings. Underneath that is a jean skirt. She also wears mismatched socks of no particular color or size and yellow rainboots.

After Huki’s sanitization, her right hoodie sleeve is torn off, her skirt is ripped, and she has a large scar from the partial sanitization on her right eye.

### Juny

Juny is a standard octoling, so they have white skin. She styles her hair in the tentacurl hairstyle, and she has lilac hair. She has brown eyes, and she sports a yellow sweater. Said sweater covers her hands completely. She also wears lavender bell bottoms with patches of her favorite things and froggy crocs. (Yes, they exist)

After Huki's sanitization, her hair color is coral. Her outfit consists of a mint beanie, a strawberry hoodie, and gray sweatpants. She wears lavender contacts, and her hair is now styled in the octolocks style. Her froggy crocs however, she still wears.

## Personalities

### Huki

Huki is shy but determined. He lost a lot of his confidence when he was sanitized, but he regained it when he escaped the metro. He cares for Erese and Juny a lot, and he would hurt himself to protect them. He loves his new life, his friends and his band more than anything. He does not want to be involved in chaos, mostly watching in utter confusion or fear, or sometimes just playing dead until it all stops.

However, when he’s fully sanitized, he’s the opposite. He’s cold and heartless, not caring for anyone but Tartar, because that’s his commands. He becomes a regular sanitized octoling, only obeying Tartars orders, however, after he’s fully sanitized, Tartar makes him his second in command.

### Erese

Erese is very excited half the time, being the most upbeat and energetic. She loves Re-Coral and loves all her friends, caring for them deeply and with her life. She is the mother figure of the band, and she's very sassy, although she has a soft side. Shes very blunt and stubborn as well and will challenge someone to some ungodly challenge for fun and will actually try to complete said challenges, which always ends in her losing 20 bucks. She produces most of the music as well.

However, after she’s freed from the partial sanitization and she goes back to the surface, she can’t trust anyone. She fears for her life almost all of the time and she has a hard time trusting people, except when it depends on her survival. She’s very shy now, and hardly talks to anyone unless they approach first. She wishes she could go back to Aura Boralious, but she can't bear to deal with the memories.

### Juny

Juny is more shy than Huki, unless she’s singing, which is when she’s the most confident she ever is. She puts in her hardest effort in the band, she will and does kill for Erese and Huki, making sure they never get hurt by anyone. She is the most talkative out of the 2 however, despite her shyness. She is just as chaotic as Erese, but she prefers to watch and cheer rather than be in the chaos.

However, after she escapes the metro unscathed, she’s more protective of herself and T.U.F.I. than anyone else. She’s scared of the entire world now, more scared than she was before, and she doesn’t know how to move on until she joins the Meep Team. She guards her new friends and T.U.F.I. with her life.

## Backstory

* Huki
* Erese
* Juny

Huki was a normal elite octoling soldier, being forced to wear the hypnoshades against his will. He was trapped like this for 5 years, until he tripped fighting Agent 3, smashing the hypnoshades. It knocked him out, but when he came to, he escaped from Octo Valley to Inkopolis Square. He was fine here for a few days, but he then accidentally walked into the metro, and got partially sanitized. However, since he was partially sanitized, he had control over himself. He didn't know what to do however, so he just acted like a normal sanitized octoling for 6 months, until he finally got the courage to escape back to Inkopolis Square. However, when he did, he was shunned, so he bought a cloak and got on the next train to Splatsville, which is where he met Erese and Juny.

Warning, Erese’s backstory has a lot to do with the SHing and abusing which isn’t very good or nice :(

Erese was born in Inkopolis, and she grew up in a verbally and emotionally abusive home. She constantly had pressure put on her shoulders by her stepmother and her father, and she was expected to be more then she was. The pressure was too much for her, and she would constantly yell at them and run into her bedroom to go SH to cope. One day, after a fight, her stepmother walked into her room and caught her in the act. She slapped Erese on her face and on her scars and sent her off to a psych ward. However, this was good for Erese, because she finally got to meet friends. Together, they hatched a plan to escape the ward and go to Splatsville. They successfully did the plan, and they escaped and got on a train to Splatsville. When they got there however, they were very poorly clothed, and all they had to protect themselves from the desert ground were the psych ward socks. However, they each had some spare change, and they each bought a piece of clothing that covered what they were most insecure about. For Erese, this was her SH scars. All she bought was a plain, hot pink hoodie, her least favorite color, but she loved it. They each started working at a coffee shop, and they soon bought an apartment that they all shared. One day, Erese started remixing songs and making her own. She started getting requests from stores and shops to play her music in Aura Boralious, and she agreed. She got her money that she had earned at her job and moved to Aura Boralious to start her music career. When she got there, the first area that wanted to play her music was a little coffee shop. She went inside to hear her song, and that was where she met Juny and Huki.
After Alterna fell, one of the sole survivors and main scientists, Angelyta, crawled out from the ruckus after waking up from the coma the explosion put her in. When she saw there were only humanoid sea creatures opposed to humans, she wanted to change this. And so, she pulled smaller squids and octopi from the ocean before they could transition, and she brought them back to Alterna. From there, she experimented on them, trying to create modified humans from the cephalopods. However, all she made were modified inklings and octolings. However, these were enough for her, and she dubbed these species "Modified Cephalopods", or MCs for short. From here, she kept creating more MCs. Now, one of the first MCs was, of course, Juny, however, she went by #1195. After the 17th batch of MCs, an AI system named T.U.F.I. was created. T.U.F.I. was used to train and create the perfect beings out of the MCs, as well as track how to make the MCs from the base cephalopods. T.U.F.I. also held annual battle cups for Angelyta's joy. However, one fatal day, another annual battle cup was held, and it was Juny against another MC. Juny won, due to her training the hardest, but the battle brought down the entire building, crushing a majority of the MCs, along with Angelyta, killing off the last of the humans. When the dust cleared, the only remaining beings that could be seen were Juny and T.U.F.I.s broken system board. For weeks, Juny sat in the wreckedge, crying, because she didn't know what else to do, until she finally found the courage to find her way out of Alterna, to which she found the manhole to Splatsville, and she went down it. When she did, she found herself in, of course, Splatsville, which is where she decided to raise herself. However, she of course didn't raise herself, because she was 8 at this time, and an 8 year old roaming the streets of a bustling city is suspicious, so she was of course taken in by a kindly couple, and she lived there until she became 16, which is when she moved out on her own to Aura Boralious, where she then met Erese and Huki, and started Re-Coral.
