Five Bad Band: Tabletop Games
Fu Leng and the other subsequent rulers of the Shadowlands in Legend of the Five Rings tend fall into this structure.
With the Oni Overlords:
During the Clan War story arc:
Four Winds story arc:
Bloodspeakers circa Diamond Edition:
The World Slayers from Rifts Chaos Earth 'Creatures of Chaos".
The five vampiric species from Vampire: The Requiem .
The Big Bad : The Ventrue . Blue-blooded , controlling, and always in charge.
The Dragon : The Nosferatau . Disfigured, brutally fast and strong , capable of casting fear, and completely loyal to anyone who accepts them .
The Brute : The Gangrel . Animalistic, savage, frequently (though not always) stupid , with a tendency to operate as mercenaries or Psychos For Hire .
The Evil Genius : The Mekhet. Shadowy, clever, dislike direct contact, and can find out anything for a price.
The Dark Chick : The Daeva's . Decadent seducers obsessed with the finer things in life. Can become The Dragon (or more frequently, The Starscream ) to the Ventrue if truly motivated.
Similarly, the five Slasher Undertakings (both Ripper and Scourge) from Hunter The Vigil The Big Bad : Geniuses/Maniacs or Charmers/Psychos . Really varies depending on the Slashers in question.
The Dragon : Freaks/Mutants . As in the Nosferatau example above, these guys are disfigured, strong, and extremely loyal to anyone who accepts them. May be just misunderstood, or genuinely evil, or somewhere in between.
The Brute : Brutes / Masks . Neither is particularly smart, neither is emotional in anyway, shape or form, neither shows mercy, and both have Implacable Man as their hat. May actually be more physically dangerous than The Dragon , but much less competent.
The Evil Genius : Geniuses/Maniacs or Charmers/Psychos . As above, this will vary from Slasher to Slasher.
The Dark Chick : Avengers/Legends. The only ones with something approaching justification for their behaviour; often bound up by the rules of their own story. Generally have Jerkass Woobie as their hat .
Warhammer 40000 armies. Granted, the setting is swimming in Black and Gray Morality . Also, these are from the Imperium's point of view. They may not be good guys, but they are the "main characters," so to speak.
And the same, but for the Warhammer Fantasy setting. Though if one accepts the theory that the Horned Rat is a lesser Chaos God and removes the Orcs and Vampire Counts it can be made a lot neater, since those two have no real connection to Chaos.
Let's not forget the principal Five-Bad Band of the franchise, the Chaos Gods. Well, four. Depending on who you ask.
The Horus Heresy 's principal characters:
The five Praetors of New Phyrexia (and their boss) from Magic: The Gathering :
'Monsterpocalypse
