Ren Höek is one of the titular protagonists of the Ren & Stimpy TV series. He is a scrawny "asthma-hound" Chihuahua with cream fur, a floppy body, donkey-like ears, neon-pink eyes with dark red pupils, red (or sometimes light brown) eyelids, and a fairly long, rat-like, pink tail who often calls Stimpy an idiot ("eediot", to quote the character) and slaps him around, quite literally. Ren is vain, spiteful, hyperactive, abusive, and he has a short fuse (especially with Stimpy). His lifelong ambitious personality is to have huge pectoral muscles. Ren's name is the real name of Kricfalusi's building manager. He was born on Tuesday the 17th, which makes him especially unlucky. Martin "Dr. Toon" Goodman of Animation World Magazine described Ren as "scrawny," "dyspeptic," and "violently psychotic." On some occasions Ren "lost his mind" in a "cumulative process," resulting in Ren becoming, in Goodman's words, a "screaming klaxon, neon-pink eyes dilating into twin novae inches above his jagged, monolithic teeth." Andy Meisler of The New York Times described Ren as "adventurous," "intelligent," and "emotionally brittle." Ren was originally voiced by series creator John Kricfalusi for the first two seasons and was later voiced by Billy West in Season 3-5 after John K got fired in 1992. In the pilot, Pierre Decelles provided Ren's signature diabolical laughter, while West performed Ren's laugh in the series. John K returned to voice Ren in the short-lived Adult Party Cartoon.

I'd suggest watching WickedBinge to have a better understanding of this casting page. For example, sometimes villains are considered Bad Apples, because while what they do is harmful, they do it for the good of something else, or they do bad things due to something that makes it out of their control. Bad Apples can also be considered villains whose intentions are evil, but not evil enough to affect too much of the world around them. Bad Apples can also be mean children who were raised that way by their parents. They can also be irresponsible in their jobs or roles as parents. Neutral characters can be characters who were evil at first, before happily joining the side of good, either being evil from manipulation, or being good after they've been betrayed. (But it all depends on how evil the deeds were before they turned good, as well as how understandable their backstory and reason for doing bad things is, or how good their deeds are to fix things up and make them right again.) Evil Villain is a character that does more harm in their bad things, usually affecting the world around them, but has their rare, VERY rare moments of either good deeds, or feelings and sympathy for something or someone. An Evil Villain can be a character that can be hard to take seriously, but has no goodwill in them either. Evil Villains can also be characters who aren't considered real villains technically, but have done so many bad deeds, with bad intentions that affect the people around them. Even characters with negative thoughts can be considered evil! Devil Incarnate is a character who almost NEVER cares about the evil deeds they do, and they greatly affect the world or lives around them without even caring at all. They'll have either no real reason for being so vicious, or no backstory sympathetic enough that is reasonable for why they are evil in the first place, combined with the heartless deeds they have done that affect others around them greatly. They will not hesitate to do something so harmful and hurtful, even if it's for a small, simple plan! Feel free to rank who you think is Pure Angel, Mostly Good, Fairly Good, Neutral, Bad Apple, Evil Villain, and Devil Incarnate. And if you'd like to, just for fun, you can even explain why that character should be considered the rank you've placed them into the comment section of your selection! Enjoy!
