Flying Dutchman

The Flying Dutchman is a recurring character in SpongeBob SquarePants, as well as lot of its fanon works.
He is a ghost of a pirate who lives in his ship and likes to scare people.
==Appearance==
The Flying Dutchman has a green glow around him, yellow eyes with black irises, a scraggly beard, a pirate hat with a chunk taken out; a handbag marked "Souls," a droopy nose, a coat, little pigtails, and a ghostly tail, and also speaks with a Scottish Pirate accent. He has a sister named Sally Dutchman.
==Personality==
During all of his appearances, the Flying Dutchman proves to be anything but a "friendly ghost." Though his role in the series is to be the devil of the sea, varies constantly from a sea demon to a restless soul or even as a psychopompic judge to the dead, the Flying Dutchman has been consistently shown to be gruff, malicious and even downright sadistic, scaring people and stealing their souls out simply for fun, and in his first full appearance, he attempted to steal the souls of everyone in the Krusty Krab simply because SpongeBob's ridiculous costume as the "Flying Dutchman" was the ultimate insult to his image. The latter trait shows that he's extremely prideful.
Despite his antisocial behavior and malevolence, the Flying Dutchman isn't pure evil or without companionship.
He has a number of ghost friends and has the capable to bond with other people in case they have the same interests or objectives (mostly SpongeBob). He is also a notorious womanizer, with not even mortal women being free from his teasers (though the former episode implies that he's divorced). While the Flying Dutchman takes strong delight in scaring people, he doesn't live exclusively to haunt mortals, having sometimes tormented them only out of boredom (scaring SpongeBob for months to wait for his ship to be fully repaired), or otherwise because someone provoked him. Although, he is no saint, the Flying Dutchman has a strong sense of justice and has been known to award people for good deeds done towards him or to punish wicked souls (taking his role as a Psychopomp very seriously), and has been known to keep promises as seen in "Shanghaied", when he grants three wishes to SpongeBob and gang in exchange for his sock.
