Beat Karppi

"They call me Beat for a reason,"
"Thanks for covering me!"
"We own the turf around here, so leave,"
"I would punch you, but my team doesn't really like it when I do, but guess what? They aren't here,"

Appearance

Default Ink Colour: Yellow

Eye Colour: Magenta

Tentacle Style: Longer tentacles than the average male inkling. They curve outwards towards the tips, and reach a little under his shoulders. His three tentacles that act as bangs reach his nose.

Physical Description: Beat has a somewhat muscular and athletic body, with his height being average and has a little more weight to him. His teeth are also bigger and a torn right ear from his many fights with other inklings. Along with the torn ear, he has received two scars, one across his back and one smaller one across his thigh. He has sharper, narrower eyes, surrounded by a mask that is also sharp and "bottom lid heavy." The limbs in his squid form are shorter than average

Personality: ESTP- the entrepreneur
In short, Beat is a big jerk. He is well known for being a bully, and an arrogant one at that. He's aggressive, short tempered, and typically very apathetic, to those he doesn't know anyway. Once someone can get past his rough exterior, you will find... The same person. However, his insults do get toned down with friends, and he does shove his pride away to say sorry if he does feel like he messed up. Instead he sends the insults he saved to those who try and hurt his friends, and can be very protective of them. He has enthusiasm and energy to spare, and hates a pessimistic atmosphere, but he equally hates over optimism. He's hypocritical in that sense, and is a crazy risk taker, and more often than not, is the first to dash out onto the battle field, and will get the first splat. He also holds grudges for a long time, so if you made him mad last week, he will have no mercy

Extras

- He was born and raised around piranha pits

- He wants to be able to play the guitar, but has no idea where to start, not to mention he isn't that good at it

Battle

Rank: A+

Team(s): SOS

Fighting Style: Beat focuses on splatting opponents, and is usually the offense of the group, but he doesn't completely ignore inking the field. He relies on his other team members to cover for him when he's too focused to notice players trying to kill him. If you somehow pissed him off before a battle, or you're a rival of his, he will be actively hunting you down

Gear and Weapon sets:
Set 1- Short Beanie (Black) (Inksaver Main), Black Inky Rider (Bomb Range up), School Shoes (Inksaver Sub)- Gold Dynamo Roller (Splat Bomb, Inkstrike)

Set 2- Special Forces Beret (white) (Opening Gambit), White Inky Rider (Special Duration up), Strapping Whites (Inksaver Sub)- Dynamo Roller (sprinkler, Echolocator)

Set 3- Striped Beanie (Opening Gambit), Krak-on 528 (Run Speed Up), Mawcasins (Ink Recovery Up)- Tempered Dynamo Roller (Seekers, Killer Wail)

(Sets 1 and 3 can use any of the Rollers, while set 2 is reserved for just the Dynamo Roller)

Relationships

Dio Medeas Juniper

Friend/Rival/Team Leader

The Leader of the SOS, while also being an old rival of Beat. Okay well, they are still rivals. He doesn't like being bossed around, and often gets into fights with her for the leader position. However, he does find it fun to hang out with her when not battling, and admires her wide range of weapons. When he's itching for a fight, she doesn't hold him back, unlike most of the team, in fact, more often than not, she joins him. He also likes her optimistic and fiery attitude during battles, and a great person to laugh alongside. Or at, that's fun too, it's cute when she gets mad
