C.Q. Cumber is a character in the Octo Expansion for Splatoon 2. He is a translucent blue sea cucumber (likely a sea pig) wearing a train conductor's hat. He is an employee of 
Kamabo Corporation, serving as the conductor of the Deepsea Metro, and is shown interacting with Cap'n Cuttlefish.
He was first shown in the 8 March 2018 Nintendo Direct explaining the usage of the subway map to Agent 8.[2]
Octo Expansion
Upon receiving a CQ-80 and a CQ Card from the Telephone, Cap'n Cuttlefish and the newly christened Agent 8 board the Deepsea Metro. Once aboard, C.Q. Cumber introduces himself to the Captain and the Agent and adds 1,000 
CQ Points to the CQ Card.
At each station, C.Q. Cumber instructs Agent 8 - and, thus, the player - of the objective, hazards, and requirements of the upcoming test. If Agent 8 continues to talk to him, C.Q. Cumber will tell them to "take care out there", indicating he does care about them at least somewhat. If Agent 8 does something that either fails the test's requirements or precludes the possibility of completing the objective (for example, causing an 8-Ball to fall off of the stage), then C.Q. Cumber informs them of this before declaring the test failed.
Following the defeat of the final boss, C.Q. Cumber mentions that Kamabo Co. has ceased to exist. Despite this, he assures Agent 8 that the Deepsea Metro is still running, allowing Agent 8 to complete any tests that they missed.
