Squidward J. Q. Tentacles is one of the ten main characters of the SpongeBob SquarePants franchise. He is SpongeBob's grumpy neighbor and coworker who lives in an Easter Island head. He is an arrogant artist and musician, and his favorite hobbies are painting self-portraits and playing the clarinet. Even though Squidward's name contains the word squid, he is an octopus, not a squid, as confirmed in many interviews and episodes. He has the traits of an octopus—a round bulbous head and rectangular pupils—while a squid has a long triangular head and circular eyes, unlike Squidward. Squids have ten limbs, many more than Squidward. The series' animators believed that giving him eight limbs would be too burdensome and difficult to animate, which is why he is usually depicted with six limbs. Notable exceptions are brief scenes in "Pressure" and "Sold!," in which he has a full set of eight legs. In "Feral Friends," his exact species is identified: a giant Pacific octopus. He is a very cynical, selfish, stick-in-the-mud individual. He works as the cashier at the Krusty Krab, a job he hates. Squidward is frequently annoyed by SpongeBob's loud and cheerful behavior, but he sometimes sticks up for SpongeBob and sees him as a friend on occasion.

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!
