'''The Crushers''' – this loss affiliation of villains has formed, defeated and been reformed multiple times over the years. It has been made up of mostly low-end villains who have banded together to face the tougher heroes of law enforcement agencies in the city. Their present make up is unknown, but they have always been led by the mad-android '''Mocker''' and the anarchist power-armored inventor '''F.I.S.T.''' (Flying Infantry Shock Trooper). Rumors have it that they are working for F.O.E. at present. </br>
'''Diamond Family''' – run by Don '''Virginia ‘''Diamond Lady''’ Diamond''', the youngest daughter of Tony Diamonds, she has reorganizing and regroup the last remains of her father’s mob organization and is determined to not only hold on to the last bit of crime that they still control (mostly extortion and gambling within Ridgeway and Upper Main Town) but she plans on somehow destroying the Bratsvas and retaking control of the city’s crime. </br>

'''F.O.E. (Fraternal Order of Evil)''' – this secretive villainous group of metahumans, under the leadership of the mad inventor and psychic, the '''Atomic Brain''' (a brain in the jar), controls most of the super and metahuman crime within the city. They have been thwarted multiple times by various heroes over the years but never destroyed and their secret lair within the city has never been discovered. </br> 
'''FleshWorks''' – founded by '''Victor Helios''' to provide (at a high price) various criminal enterprises with '''''Skin-Jobs''''' (realistic looking androids), '''''Golems''''' (Frankenstein monster type reanimated corpses) and '''''Chimera''''' (animal human hybrid creations).  
'''Feral Underground''' – made up mostly of outcasts and degraded mutants, they live in many of the city’s old abandoned subway system south of Main Town (these tunnels were supposedly sealed off after the earthquake of 1979 and replaced by the C-Train system). They are involved in mostly petty crimes of thief, smuggling and some exertion. The mysterious leader of the Feral Underground is known only as ‘Red Rags’ and always appears wearing a full body ragged red cloak. The supervillain known as the '''Rat King''' has strong ties to the gang and often helps them against the police and mending superheroes. </br>   
'''The Medved Bratsva (the ''‘Bear Brotherhood’'' in Russian)''' – the Russian Mafia is one of the strongest crime families within Centropolis. Headed by '''Dmitri ‘''the Red Tsar''’ Alexandroy''', a ruthless and greedy man who surrounds himself by only most cutthroat knee-breakers, they control most of the crime in the Red District and much of the drug trade within all of Centropolis. They destroyed most of the Old Italian mafia ten years ago with the assassination of Capo '''Tony ‘''Pooki''’ Diamonds''' and took over most of his old organization and crime infrastructure (although some escaped and are trying to make a comeback, see above). Dmitri has a core of ‘Chimera’ bear and wolf bodyguards provided to him by '''''FleshWorks'''''.</br>  
'''H.A.R.M. (Humans Against Real Monsters)''' – a splinter group of various anti-metahuman organization groups that believe that all metahuman, costumed individuals and mutants are too dangerous to be allowed to exist and must be stopped before they expose themselves as the “demons” they truly are. They have some unusually rich secret patrons that fund and support their activities around the US and the world. The group fronts advanced robot and mech-style armored fighting machines in their war against metahumans. </br>   
'''S.H.A.D.O.W. (the Secret Hierarchy of Agents for Domination Over the World)''' – while not a major force within Centropolis, the secretive overlord of this villainous organization, Overshadow, has agents and resources here due to his interest in the various high tech industries and the Unobtanium mines.</br>

The group include the insane paragon whom wears an alien capped suit called '''Proditor Capella''', who is believed to be one of the strongest beings alive (he fought Atlas sole multiple times winning about half the time. Something no other being was really able to except maybe Dr. Destroyer). Note though that the group almost never takes any jobs within Centropolis itself as not to draw attention to their location.</br> 
'''V’sorri Infiltrators''' – there remains remnants of the vicious V’sorri invasion from five years ago, especially in Centropolis. These aliens live in disguise (though various technological or psychic illusions) and still stow dissent and disaster in and around the Unobtanium industry.

'''W.R.A.I.T.H. (World Renegade Anti-Industrial Terrorist Headquarters)''' – this villainous organization operations throughout the world, but due to the importance of the various corporate enterprises and the mining of Unobtanium in Centropolis, has made a major focus of their criminal enterprises here.
