Caelan Graham-Rountree had become one with the Inklings, joining their ranks after Callie and Marie put his soul into a male Inkling body with his caucasian skin and blue eyes, but a new hair color. Like all Inklings, he lives in Inkopolis. As Caelan is an Inkling now, he can't die, but instead can easily respawn after being "splatted". Caelan can see the color blue, which is his favorite color, as a form of hope and resilience. Caelan, like all Inklings, can alternate between humanoid and squid form. Caelan's humanoid form has a black marking resembling a mask around his eyes, pointed ears, and tentacles that change color in battle depending on the color of ink that his team uses. He has noticeably thicker eyebrows, and his main tentacles are secured into a ponytail, with a urban-camouflage-print hairband, at the back of his head, resembling hair. He possesses pointed teeth similar in shape to a squid's beak, whereas his squid form resembles a brightly-colored-yellow cephalopod, vaguely resembling the Bloopers from the Super Mario games that is the same color as his "hair" with two long clubbed tentacles, four shorter tentacles, and two large eyes that seem to be joined. He gained the ability to transform between humanoid and squid form at the age of 14. Caelan has evidently have no bones, allowing excellent eyesight and the ability to leap five feet in a single bound. He is kind-hearted and friendly as well as can be aggressive in battle. When Caelan speaks the Inkling language, his dialogue is composed of high-pitched gargling noises. All Inklings' forms have abilities associated with them. In humanoid form, Caelan can splatter a special type of colored ink by using his treasured Inkzooka. This ink can be quickly spread over many surfaces with the exception of things such as barrels, tarps, and glass of other colors. This ink can inhibit the movement of Inklings that do not have a matching color. When used as a projectile, ink can damage opposing Inklings. In squid form, an Inkling can swim and jump quickly through ink of the same color to swim up walls, through wire fences, and grates, into areas that are not typically reachable. Squids cannot travel past striped barriers, typically at the top of walls, to swim into inaccessible areas. While in squid form, if Inklings are in their own ink color, they will be invisible if they stay still and when moving quickly, only slight ripples will appear. While submerged in ink, he will also refill their ink reserves, which he can use for his Inkzooka in humanoid form. When in squid form, Caelan is on an inkless surface, he will be visible and move slowly, even slower than in humanoid form. He is unable to swim in water. When underwater, his form dissolves because his body is actually made of liquid. This may also be what allows him, in squid form, to pass through grates and travel along ink lines. He also has the ability to Super Jump, which enables him to be launched into the sky and land nearby an ally Inkling or a Squid Beakon.
