Since Carbon has 6 neutrons, protons, and electrons it could be considered the the devil element, and ironically, it is the basis of all life, amirite?

It doesn't always have to have 6 electrons though.

Typically it forms covalent bonds however in organic compunds, so in that form 6 of the electrons are "its". Carbide compounds aren't particularly common, and carbocations/carboanions are only intermediate steps, which are not stable themselves.
