Villain Society (pseudo-government)
| Villain Society is the umbrella term used to refer to a rapidly growing organization of villains united under a single support structure. This organization’s primary function is to support and uplift villains within its sphere of influence and integrate them into a literal society of villains with its own rules, culture, ideologies, and outlook. Villain Society is strictly pro-quirker with a dominant lean toward anti-human ideology. The organization was founded in 2074 by the Villain Council under the leadership of the Super-Villain Ishtar after the defeat of the Fraternity of Japanese Villains Description Villain Society is at its core composed of several independent Villain organizations that have formed a permanent alliance with one another with the intention of creating a society to oppose “Hero Society”. Among these organizations are, The Goddess Cult, The Kobayashi Criminal Syndicate, The Garden of Whispers, The Furlong Concern Banking Organization, [pilo], The Plutocracy, and [empty]. The six organizations’s representatives or leaders, aside from the Goddess Cult lead by Ishtar, make up the Villain Council that meet under the guise of the Board of Directors of the ASTA Corporation. Villain Society maintains a strict hierarchy and gives great deference to power and influence. “The Might of the Individual is good for the Collective”. Individuals with exceptional ability can be invited to have a voice with the Villain Council and many are often drawn in to become exceptionally well paid enforcers or agents. Smaller villain organizations that fall under the influence of Villain Society are immediately considered protected by the body and are expected to contribute and grow. Surprisingly, this mentality means that Villains who consider themselves part of Villain Society are quick to rise to one anothers defense, both out of a sense of loyalty and self preservation. The stronger villain society is, the stronger they can become. | VILLAIN SOCIETY  Type: Villain Syndicate Leadership: Magocratic Council Founded: 2074 Headquarters: Tokyo, Japan |
