Gary Doyle is a character from the Splatoon series, created by Faz Studios as their de-facto mascot during their era as a Nintendo second-party publisher. Since his inception, he has appeared in a variety of crossover titles, including games not made by Faz Studios.

Appearance

In short, Gary can be described as an average Inkling boy build-wise. He has the standard figure for male Inklings, but is a few inches shorter than the average height of one of his age (a fact which bothers him greatly). His eyes are a deep blue.

Due to a genetic oddity, Gary's natural ink color is a bright red, similar to the ink used for Team Ketchup. While this doesn't interfere with his ability to shift his ink color, he usually keeps it red (aside from Turf Wars), feeling as doing otherwise would be lying in a sense. His hairstyle is the "Topknot", a ponytail-like style in which two medium-sized tentacles protrude from his hair. Four smaller tentacles are also present further down.

Gary's usual outfit consists of the Retro Sweat, a pinkish sweater adorned with a image of Judd and a phrase in the Inkling language, black shorts with a red stripe on the side, and the Orange Arrows, a pair of orange and blue sneakers.

Personality

Gary can best be described a optimistic, yet awkward person with a big heart. He's usually very polite and caring, often striving to do the right thing. However, he is also socially anxious, which can lead to awkward encounters, especially around newcomers. Due to this, he often second-guesses himself in conversation and apologizes profusely for any inconvenience.

Despite all this, he'll take any opportunity to make a new friend, and keeps the ones he has close. His empathy has also given him a strong sense of justice, with one of his greatest pet peeves being bullying and inequality within the community.

A notable trait about Gary is his passion for video games. While he's willing to discuss other topics, conversations about gaming get him particularly interested, and can lead to a lengthy tirade about the subject from him. Alongside video games, he has also taken up an interest in singing, hoping to become a famous musician one day.

However, despite Gary's usual enthusiasm, he can be quite timid and shy at times. He also stresses somewhat easily, usually being caused by him trying to live up to the assumed expectations of others. It's this fear of letting others down which keeps him from coming out of his shell at times.

However, his greatest flaw is his inability to control or mask his emotions, especially if the situation at hand involves something or someone he deeply cares about. He's prone to getting flustered or angry if pushed, which often times leads him to making irrational decisions. Due to his emotional nature, he is also quite easy to read, and most can gain an understanding of his current mood solely by his facial expression.

Some of Gary's behaviors are due to him being on the autism spectrum, such as his anxiety and video games being a special interest of his.

Abilities

Gary has the abilities of an average Inkling. He possesses the ability to generate ink, which he can shoot at enemies. He has a number of weapons he can use his ink with, but is mainly an N-Zap '89 main. However, he is only slightly skilled with these weapons. He can also turn into a squid and swim around in the ink he creates. He is capable of Super Jumping, which allows him to launch himself vast distances.

Due to a pair of uniquely developed vocal cords, Gary also possesses a powerful voice, which he can raise up to 130 decibels, allowing him to be heard from over a mile away. The most common application of this ability is utilize sound waves to produce various effects. This ability has many applications, but these attacks are only at their strongest if Gary partakes in a few minutes of vocal exercises before using them. If used too long/often or without warmup, they can easily result in damage to Gary's throat. In addition, the nature of his vocal cords tends to cause his voice to rise in volume and pitch should he get panicked or angry, causing quite a din that can be painful to listen to.

Aside from his combat-based abilities, Gary has also demonstrated considerable singing talent, being able to hit some very high notes with enough vocal exercises beforehand. Due to his vocal cords, these high notes can hit a register capable of shattering glass.

History

Gary was born with two abnormalities; a bright red ink color and abnormally developed vocal cords. Despite this, he was raised as any child would be in Inkopolis, leading a generally good life without anything special happening. He developed a love of video games and music at a young age, leading to them becoming his favorite interests. However, upon entering school, he struggled with making friends due to his abnormal ink color and general awkwardness. This lead to him being picked on at times, which he never talked about to any of the adults in his life.

However, it was during an encounter with some of his bullies when Gary discovered his vocal ability. Having been pushed to the breaking point by the teasing, he screamed at such a volume that a few of the school's windows were shattered by the sound. While this did result in the teasing coming to an end, it did get Gary into some trouble with school officials. Feeling remorse and shame for the incident, Gary vowed to control his abilities as much as he could.

Many years after this incident, Gary moved out of his parents' house after finishing school, now trying to survive on his own in the world. While he did find a small group of friends, he still feels somewhat discontent with his life, yearning for something more.

This would come in the form of a late-night abduction by the Octarians, which caused Gary to fall into Anenome Abyss after a failed escape. This is where he would meet Sephalow, a rebelling Octotrooper who needed help taking down DJ Octavio. He took Gary into his rebellion to find Zapfish for the group, leading him on a grand journey throughout the Octarian homeland. After taking down DJ Octavio, he returned to Inkopolis.

Fantendo Smash Bros. Soul

Gary appears as a playable character in Fantendo Smash Bros. Soul.

Gary Debuted in Gary's Inktastic Journey.Character owned by TheFazDude. Gary Doyle is a loveable yet somewhat socially awkward Inkling, born with a rare genetic condition that gives him not only the extremely rare red ink colour, but also a mutation of his vocal chords which lets him use powerful shouts and screams to subdue his enemies. Gary loves nothing more than spending time with the friends he holds close, playing video games and eating pizza. He's had a few close encounters with the Octarian army in the past, having been kidnapped and forced to work together with Octarian renegade Sephalow. In Fantendo Smash Bros. Soul, Gary has relatively balanced stats, though mostly leaning towards slightly higher mobility both on the ground and the air, and lacking somewhat in defense. He's a light middleweight whose fast and wide-ranged attacks are useful for score combos both near and from afar, though he functions best as a zoner using his reliable sound-based attacks. While these attacks are strong and difficult to counteract, Gary must be careful when using his vocal abilities since if he uses them too much, they will become weaker as Gary's vocal chords become damaged. This is signified by Gary's icon on the HUD becoming cracked, though as these cracks heal over time, Gary's sound attacks become more strong again. This deters the player from spamming Gary's rather strong sound-based specials. Neutral Special: Vocal Shot Gary lets out a brief yell, which can be angled in any direction to produce a small, fast-travelling soundwave that deals minor damage and dissipates on impact with an enemy. Though lacking in power, it makes up for this in range and speed, with almost no starting or ending lag and being able to reach over very long distances. This gives it good combo potential and using it in very quick succession can stun lock enemies. Side Special: Scatter Shout Gary lets out a longer shout either to the left or right, which creates a three-round soundwave attack. Compared to Vocal Shot, these soundwaves are larger, moving slightly more slowly but each hit dealing considerably more damage than Vocal Shot. They have limited range, as a result, only travelling about halfway across the stage before fading, though they have the potential to pierce an unlimited number of foes which makes this attack good for crowd control. It has a moderate amount of ending lag making it less spammable than Vocal Shot. Up Special: Booyah Burst Letting out a loud cheer, Gary creates a sound-based explosion pulse centered around him, which deals heavy damage to foes within a close radius while also having the added perk of blasting him upwards. This can be used in mid air as a recovery, or just used generally while on the ground to rack up high amounts of damage to foes that come up close. It's reliable due to its quick start up and high damage, but once Gary is launched upwards, he won't be able to do anything until he reaches the ground again making him vulnerable to his foes' aerial attacks. Down Special: Ink Mine Gary plants an Ink Mine at his current location, which is signified by a small, almost indiscernible red dot. If one of Gary's opponents walks over the Ink Mine, it will explode violently in a brilliant burst of ink, dealing very heavy damage. Alternatively, Gary can detonate it remotely by using his Down Special again (as he cannot have more than one active at once), or by using a projectile which will set it off immediately on impact. Unlike most bomb trap attacks in the game, it doesn't affect the user, meaning Gary is immune to the explosion's effects. Fan Finisher: Cacophonic Cry Once activated, Gary lets out a lengthy shout, sending out enormous screen-sweeping soundwaves. If an opponent is hit by this while airbourne, they will take heavy damage and be knocked to the ground, while enemies hit by this while already on the ground will become stunned. Gary does this about 5 times, racking up enormous amounts of damage. He can also angle the direction of the sound waves between shouts, letting him target specific enemies if he wants to.

In addition, the version of Gary seen in the Super Slam Jam games, dubbed "Scary Gary", appears as a Summoner Orb character. When summoned, he releases his signature Booyah Burst, screaming so loud that it shakes the screen and releases a shockwave around him that causes high damage to anyone nearby (including players if their volume was up too high).

Beatdown Town

Gary appears in versions of Beatdown Town for Nintendo consoles as a bonus boss included with the Nintendo Jams album. Having arrived in the universe through unknown means, he enlists the help of Zoe to return home, developing a friendship with her along the way rather than a proper confrontation between the two.
