The inkblot, as the name suggests, is animated ink pulled into a human form. They take orders only from their creator, Spindle, and have no mind of their own. They are solid objects (until they die), but they have a slightly melted appearance. Their skin and body is pitch black, and have no discernible facial features. They can also flatten themselves into two-dimensional shapes, and appear as large ink smudges on a wall. Their language, Inkspeak, is impossible to mimic, as not only are the sounds created unique to the vocal chords of inkblots, but the language itself also requires shaping the form of the body itself, creating shapes and forms slightly different from their standard appearance. |
