>Giovanni is the only one who's (barely) competent, and it was his idea to start the whole group of villains thing. He now deeply regrets it and spends most of his time dealing with the other member's gaffes and blunders. An ongoing theme of his is constantly trying (and failing) to earn his estranged son's love.>Maxie and Archie got stuck together in the same room in the compound, and are Odd Couple-style roommates, constantly trying to annoy and sabotage each other over the pettiest. The whole thing has strongly homoerotic undertones that everybody but them pick up on. Archie is a total bruh, and Maxie is a total cynic who badly tries to hide his alcoholism.>Cyrus is a legitimately brilliant inventory who squanders most of his time watching anime, writing fanfiction, and complaining about things on online forums. When he's properly motivated, though, he's without a doubt the most dangerous and scariest villain of all. A subplot of his is his infatuation with Cynthia, and frequently the rest of the group drops Giovanni's latest plan to try and help him get a date.>Ghetsis fancies himself as a genius, charismatic gentleman, but he's really a total idiot that nobody likes. He frequently undertakes bloated missions that always fail and his attempts to backstab Giovanni are so apparent as to be pathetic. The only reason Giovanni doesn't outright kill him is that Ghetsis owes him $200.>Lysandre is a complete, barely intelligible psychopath, who frequently misquotes Ayn Rand and Nietzsche. He can't die, so he always takes a lot of physical abuse. The only thing he fears is being raped in prison.>Lusamine funds the whole thing, so she has to be kept on board, even though she's completely insane, doesn't bathe, and insisted that her kleptomatic boyfriend Guzma also join the group.
