The Villains' International League of Evil or V.I.L.E. for short, is a league made of the most dangerous thieves and criminals in time and in the world, led by Carmen Sandiego in the original TV show. They are the overarching antagonists of most versions of the Carmen Sandiego shows. In the 2019 Netflix reboot, Carmen Sandiego, they are the main antagonists, and the arch-nemesis of Carmen, led by five dangerous individuals.
History[]
1985 computer games and 1984 cartoon series[]
V.I.L.E was created by the crime mistress herself, Carmen Sandiego after she left the ACME Detective Agency, stealing treasures from around the world and leaving clues behind for ACME agents Zack and Ivy, under the guidance of the Chief, to find in order to capture her. Almost all of the operatives have puns for names.
2019 Netflix series[]
The organization was founded by five people, including Gunnhild the Gruesome, during the medieval times, which is why their symbol was a V, the Roman numeral for five.
Before Shadowsan (Suhara) left and betrayed V.I.L.E.'s faculty, he, Gunnar Maelstrom, Coach Brunt, Dr. Sarah Bellum, and Countess Cleo taught thieves-in-training on an island part of the Canary Islands, its headquarters, along with an academy training young operatives into committing criminal activity, on said island. After Shadowsan's betrayal, the faculty went a search for a new faculty member, which turned out to be Roundabout.
It should be noted that in this series, most of the operatives use codenames that are mostly words that define themselves instead of puns like in the rest of the franchise. Crackle briefly considered the codename, Graham Crackle (a pun on "Graham Cracker"), but Le Chevre pointed out that no one would take a criminal seriously if their name was a pun. Although, there has been a few exceptions.
