* Frank Giordino is the sleazy head of national security, who regularly engages in criminal activities to get himself more fame and power. In the past, Giordino assisted the head of FBI to [[FrameUp frame the Black Panthers]] for murder, solely to justify their arrest, which led to multiple Black people being brutally killed, Frank also--inadvertently but without remorse--killed his own sister, later on blackmailing her son, [[EvilUncle his own nephew]], Jason Fly, into working for him, fully ready to have him killed should he refuse. When his attempt to save the President ended up killing him instead, Frank decided to kill Jason Fly and his friends to stop them from talking, not caring when one of these attempts nearly killed his assistant and lover Jessie. In his most heinous attempt to cover his tracks, Frank sent a black ops team to blow up a dam in the foreign territory Jason Fly was in, which would have destroyed the whole valley and everyone in it.

A [[PoliticallyIncorrectVillain racist]] advisor to the President of the US, William Sheridan, Calvin was shocked when William, growing weary of his extreme views, choose to replace him. Deciding to assassinate William, Calvin convinced his brother, Walter Sheridan, to join him and become Number I, as he created a plan of installing a fascist government in the US, where anyone who isn't white is either subjugated or executed. Killing his partners, who knew that Walter has become the Number I, Calvin has the titular Number XIII assassinate William, afterwards [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness ordering him to be executed as well]]. When the XIII impersonator started to go on his trail and Walter wanted to quit their scheme, Calvin captured the current president, Walter, fake XIII and his friends and gleefully revealed to them his scheme of using SPADS soldiers to take over all strategic points of the US to declare MartialLaw across the country and then cause WorldWarIII to wipe out entire cities, before he left all his captured enemies to die in the explosion.
