Figured we might as well do this now.

Design: Chute-Em-Up
Subweapon

Concocted during an ill-advised R&D office party, the Chute-Em-Up is a portable inflatable waterslide, equipped with a pump for automatic filling and operation, and aimed upwards. The flow of ink, therefore, is able to launch any Octoling who swims into it powerfully forwards and upwards. A racheting hard leg (the majority of the skeleton for the device) allows for multiple trajectories (chosen upon deployment), and by being immersed in a pressurized jet of ink, an emptied ink tank will be partially refilled instantly by a trip through the Chute-Em-Up. The Chute-Em-Up is not a long term structure, as its ink pump will eventually run dry, but it can run for 10-15 seconds once deployed.

Chute-Em-Ups will provide logistical improvements in large-scale troop movement and small-scale tactical deployments, enabling dramatic rush tactics and heroic retreats. As the device is full of friendly ink, any allied 'ling will be re-Freshed and mostly cleaned of any contaminants and any enemy 'ling foolish or unlucky enough to take a trip through a Chute-Em-Up will not be landing on the other side as anything but an unfortunate puddle.

Bamboo 4 Hands

The Bambooz-inger is a gun inspired by the bamboozler, with four short (1/2 length) barrels arranged in a diamond and one ink chamber oriented at the bottom barrel. The ink chamber is inspired by the Splatling, with a small hand crank that winds up
a spring on the side of the weapon with a one-directional sprocket allows the spring to be wound but not discharge until the loading or barrel rotation mechanisms activate. The trigger, when pulled, releases the barrel pressure, which is held in place by a pressure seal, and then activates the rotation mechanism to rotate the barrels. The reloading mechanism is then activated and loads the bottom barrel with a full load of ink. The releasing spring powers all the mechanisms, and can be partially rewound. A rounded extension with textured grip extends under the four barrels to allow a steady hold of the gun. The barrels will continue rotating, firing, and loading as long as the trigger is held down.

Tl;Dr: Four barreled ink rotary SMG.

Quote from: Baron Bombardé
As part of our effort to integrate Octarians into our force, we've experimented several times with getting them to grow more tentacles. This didn't really go all that great most of the time, it's not really that things went wrong, there just wasn't all that much benefit in investing more time and resources into units who are meant to be inexpensive. Some had more potential than the others though, Baron Bombardé is one of them. Very quickly he had begun growing differently from the others, his body taking on an almost humanoid shape, two tentacles growing where the arms would be. Since then he's only grown larger, with yet more tentacles increasing his intelligence with time. Now he has grown truly massive, taller than the grandest giant octoling and thrice as wide. As he grew more tentacles, two large ones hanging from his back and a trio more hanging from his face as a sort of mustache and beard, his personality grew as well. He speaks with a deep and commanding voice, his tone demanding others attention as he makes speeches in the third person. Off the battlefield however, while it can't be said that his voice or third-person way of speaking changes, his mannerisms do, going from boisterous and bombastic to soft-spoken and cheerful.
In combat, the baron wears a large, big-buttoned leather jacket left perpetually open, constraining his arm tentacles into a more arm-like shape and with a pair of holes cut out for his back tentacles to go through, as well as a pair of leather pants and large boots. On his back is a properly sized custom ink tank, which has two unfilled balloon mines connected to a pair of extra valves on it. A pair of bandoliers cross over his body, covered in unfilled punt-bombs, and while he prefers his bombs he does have access to a standard splatling in case it is needed. He has also developed a special that is more properly suited for his own style of combat, a flood of ink allows him to fill up his bombs rapidly without draining his tank, and even fill the two balloon mines hanging from his tank, which he can pluck off and then toss with a pair of tentacles each to create massive blasts.
Off the battlefield however, one must remember that the Baron, despite his size and relative maturity, is still young, and very inexperienced. He knows little about the world, or about Octoling culture in-spite of his intelligence. Despite his decision to go to battle, he explores our cities with an almost childlike fascination and innocence, eager to try new things. Making an endearing contrast to his intimidating presence. A real gentle giant.

Changing my vote to Norah. Because if she goes well than not only do we get a third Hero, both to help deal with their Thunderbird or whatever it's called and to help push lanes, but we also can revise a non-prototype version of the Boiler Pack out of her.
