Your idea of Squeek being two characters in one is a rather intereting idea, one that I have never heard portrayed previously. Until now I assumed Squeek was symbiotic in the sense that his species and another species helped each other out, like, Species X eats the parasites that kill Species O as nourishment.
The environments, as well as getting more industrial, will also get more commercial and residential too - I think it's important to remember that.
I doubt a Meech would make an appropriate hero, but at least we'll be visiting the Meeches and seeing their viscious ways of life at some point in the Quintology.
I believe/have a theory that all the heroes will have some form of possession power. I mean, there's Abe - sure he can blow up his farts and drive huge trains and vehicles of havoc, but his real power lies in his psychic ability to take control of other living beings. And Munch, he's really poor. Okay, he can zap his enemies and command huge armies of carnivorous Fuzzles, but when it comes down to it, his abilities to take control of machinery is really his best and most vital attributy. I see further heroes as being able to 'possess' plants and elements.
Flying heroes certainly figure, as do female queen heroes and robotic heroes. Remember how Abe and Munch, and even the masses of Mudokons and Gabbits, are relationally dysfunction, yet they must live it through if they are to survive another person's appetite? I think that the five heroes will have a lot of quarralling and quibbling among themselves.
Anyway, there's the views of the Oddworld Encyclopedia.
Oh yes, and I have this idea that Nod is a slave on a boat, but I forget where i got that from.
