These small forms have only four limbs to move around. Inklings are all born as small, squid-like creatures, with infants holding no humanoid features whatsoever. Inklings live excessively longer than Humans, some individuals easily reaching over 200 years old. Interestingly, the phrases 'This Way!', and 'Hey!' aren't spoken in Inkling Language by the Inklings, and instead spoken in Human Language. Some of these had been connected to Human language though:ġ - 'Ready!': 'Yeddy!', 'Week-Week!', 'Ye-squi-wy!', 'Ye-i-ngyes!', 'Hae-day!', 'Ge-wy!', 'Squeek-week!', 'He-by!'Ģ - 'Hooray!' 'NGYES', 'Ngyesh!', 'Wowee!', 'Gung-we-wy!', 'Woomy!' The language, both written and spoken language, is mostly indecisive apart from specific exclamations and statements heard. This language itself can mainly be heard as high-pitched gurgles. The species has developed their own known language, known as Inklish.

It is also hypothesized that their excellent eyesight can only see particular colors in specialized ways. Inklings don't have any bones, making their bodies mostly a liquid form, which ironically makes them unable to swim as they dissolve in water. They possess six tentacles, two of which are much larger and more prominent than the other four. Their Squid form has a more natural Cephalopod-like anatomy, mirroring a normal Squid, but they still have their signature eyes and mask markings, though these eyes seem to be conjoined at the center. In their humanoid form, Inklings hold an uncanny resemblance to Humans, but such notable details do split them apart: they have black markings around their eyes to resemble a mask, pointed teeth that mirror the shape of a Squid's beak (two pointed teeth on the upper jaw, and one single pointed tooth on the lower jaw), and their 'hair' is actually the Inklings' tentacles, which while default to their birth coloration, can easily change color depending on the Inkling's association. Inklings, along with other marine invertebrates, evolve thousands of years after humanity due to rising sea levels bringing their ancestors inland, and them becoming stranded once the sea levels retreated. Inklings come in numerous colors, which depending on the color also changes the coloration of their ink. All Inklings have two notable 'forms' that they can freely change into at will: their common Humanoid form, and their ancestral squid form.
