Toxen

"Now then - apart from being a monster on the side - I think it's time I introduce you to my REAL toys!"

Toxen is an Inkling/Kraken hybrid, known at the "pet" of Beta. Introduced in his Kraken form first, Toxen is Beta's go-to reliable friend.

Backstory
"Remember when I was in the zoo, with the zombies? Good times - when I was a captive. Before all of this, I had to blame the Octarians for sticking me into the shell of the vile beast of my Kraken squid form. How they got me in there is none of my business, but the thing that matters - it's normally irreversible. Death and resurrection in that order wouldn't change it. So, Beta - we had an agreement, me and him did. He got the help from Neptune's sister, as she apparently knows a lot about machinery and technology - to gift me my Inkling form back I used to have. And here we are today."

- Toxen

In short, Toxen used to be held captive in a Zombie zoo, which was near an area that Zomboss had under control. Beta noticed the trapped Kraken that time - and reportedly set him free; and Toxen has been helping ever since. But, only when he says it was normally irreversible, he had his reasons for being a mindless beast justified. Normally going in with blind rampages, Toxen was doing all he COULD do. Originally stuck in his Kraken squid form until Time Trouble, and now he's free to do what he wants.

Inkling
Toxen is normally calm and protective, ready to sacrifice his time. Thanks to his selective weapons, he takes great pride in doing so. With the right situation, Toxen can often change it. Unless he gets too reckless, which is most of the time.

Kraken
Mindless rampage monster. Enough said. All brawns, no brain.

Weapons
Dual Jet Squelchers - Shooter weapons with the largest range of their kind; albeit slow to fire.

Disruptors - Explosives that do no damage, but rather slow down the victims and weaken their power/energy. They also reveal invisible foes!

Inkstrikes - Huge tornadoes of ink. Toxen can aim them wherever he pleases; and watch as the target area gets littered with a huge tornado of ink it makes.

Trivia

 * Even though Toxen's name is a variation on toxic, a word for poison, he has absolutely nothing related to poison.
 * This is similar to Mirage, in which case her name is related to 'fake', even though she physically isn't.
