## Description

### Backstory

When they were a kid, they were taken by the octarian army. It's unknown what happened to their family, but they assume that the octarians who found them killed their parents. They then became part of a small group in the octarian army with others like them. The goal of this was to see how well the octarians could gain control over inklings, as well as use them for stealth missions when they were older. There were at least 20 of these inkling children, Dew being number 19 as was marked on their ear tag at the time. They were never told they were actually an inkling and just thought that they were "in-disguise" their whole life so they could get info on the inklings easier. They were under surveillance for most of their life in order to observe them but they were allowed to have time alone. During this time, they grew fond of a promising octarian engineer, Marina. They only met due the engineering sector being near where the lab the children were kept. Dew frequently showed Marina their art and Marina returned the favor by letting them listen to their music demos. One of these drawings was of Marina herself, which she kept stored in her armor. When Marina went missing, Dew was part of a group sent to retrieve her. But by the time they reached Octo Canyon, Dew had been separated from the group. While trying to find their way back, they were spotted by Agent 4 after the events of the Splatoon 2 hero mode. They attempted to hide but Agent 4 ended up finding them and brought them to the surface. Well, after 4 had to explain to Dew that their whole life was a lie and they were in fact, not an octoling as they thought they were. It took a long time for them to fully accept it. When they got to the surface, Dew got a glimpse of Marina, they immediately ran up to her and started pouring out how worried they were. Once she explained everything, she offered to let them stay in her and Pearl's shared house on Mount Nantai. After a while in inkopolis, they began to make friends with many inklings and even octolings, well, most of them. Some were... not as kind to Dew as they'd have liked. Luckily, they knew a solution. They're very good friends with Agent 8 who lived with Pearl and Marina at the same time they did. Once the Splatlands began to be more popular, they moved there. Not like they really had a choice. Sort of being a wanted criminal and all. The quickly stumbled upon Cuttlefish, who they remembered 8 mentioning. After joining the Squidbeak Splatoon, they found a lost small fry shortly after and adopted him, naming him Koji. After defeating Mr. Grizz, they began to become a full-time agent, doing turf wars and anarchy battles whenever they could to get money to support themselves. Somehow they haven't gotten caught by anyone. (Current day)
