Inkwell

"Hey there! Meet the coolest player in your town–yours truly!"

- Wisp imitating Inkwell

Inkwell is a jock octopus villager in. Inkwell references Splatoon and is one of several villagers introduced in the update that references other Nintendo franchises. Inkwell can be brought into the player's campground and invited to join the village by scanning any Inkling Girl, Boy, or Squid amiibo.

His name refers to the ink that octopuses produce, a major gameplay element in Splatoon. Likewise, his Japanese name contains sumi, "ink."

Appearance
Inkwell's design is based on an Inkling squid from Splatoon. He is an orange octopus with dark orange stripes on the back of his head and tentacles. The bottom of his tentacles are white. His eyes are right next to each other, almost making him appear as having one large eye with two pupils. He has a large brow and the underside of his eyes has a thick, dark outline.

Personality
Inkwell is a jock villager, which means that he will enjoy sports and exercising. He will get along with peppy, big sister, cranky, and other jock villagers, but will conflict with lazy villagers' laid-back lifestyle. He also may have trouble getting along with snooty villagers as well.

In New Horizons
Inkwell does not appear in Animal Crossing: New Horizons and does not have a poster.

Trivia

 * Alongside Viché and Cece, Inkwell is the only villager designed after a character from another Nintendo franchise that is not directly named after said character.
