!!Toshiro Otomo (Terrence Scammel, ''Chaos Theory'')
An old-fashioned Japanese admiral, he is the head of Japan's new electronic warfare branch. [[spoiler: He turns out to be the game's second big-bad, alongside Douglas Shetland, using the Dvorak algorithms to launch false-flag operations to start a war in the Koreas and re-militarize Japan.]]
----

* BigBadDuumvirate: [[spoiler:He's working with Shetland to cause a war between North and South Korea, though ultimately for different reasons than Shetland.]]
* ChekhovsGunman: [[spoiler:He does not seem to be a very important character at first, providing only some color to a few of the briefings. Then he turns out to be party to the sinking of the Walsh and the war in Korea.]]
* FaceHeelTurn: Formerly Japanese intelligence, now villain.
* FalseFlagOperation: [[spoiler:Along with Shetland, hacks into a North Korean missile battery and disables the Walsh's defenses, which results in the sinking of the Walsh and North Korea getting the blame. Then he prepares to launch a North Korean cruise missile at Japan, in order to steer public opinion towards re-militarizing Japan.]]
* GracefulLoser: [[spoiler:Once his attempt at Seppuku fails, Otomo's sense of honor sees him confess to his crimes in public and taking all the blame.]]
* InsaneAdmiral
* KnightTemplar: [[spoiler:He wants to make Japan a great world power again. To that end, he's willing to kill thousands of Koreans, Americans and Japanese to see it done.]]
* {{Seppuku}}: Attempts it [[spoiler:once Sam breaches his inner sanctum. Sam saves his life because there has to be someone to take the fall for everything that's happened.]]
* TheStoic: He does not have much in the way of a sense of humor, though Grimm notes he is much nicer than he appears to be in person. [[spoiler: Given the fact that he tries re-arming Japan to go to war with North Korea, this may not be an accurate assessment of the man.]]
** NotSoStoic: [[spoiler: Starts screaming at the Japanese government officials, first when they try to deny his demands, second after they try to invade his UnderwaterBase.]]

[[folder: John Brown's Army]]
!!Emile Dufraisne

The leader of John Brown's Army. Emile was a wealthy Mississippi citizen who sold all of his possessions in order to fund his revolutionary army. He believes America has become corrupt and has to be taken down and rebuilt.
----

* BadBoss: He executes [[spoiler:Enrica]] if the bomb fails to go off on the cruise ship, suspecting [[spoiler:she]] was a mole who sabotaged the device, even though he had no evidence.
* BaldOfEvil: Very much an example of such.
* BigBad: Of ''Double Agent.''
* EqualOpportunityEvil: Played with. Despite being a militia leader, he's got a black female liberal as his second-in-command. Likewise, he's taken his organization's name from a famous abolitionist.
* IfYoureSoEvilEatThisKitten: He really likes pulling this, even on operatives who have already proven their loyalty.
* ProperlyParanoid: He's got no less than two [[DeepCoverAgent deep cover agents]] in his organization. Sadly, his tests don't prove anything since he's rather forgiving of mistakes comparatively speaking.
* RightWingMilitiaFanatic: Is the leader of one of these, though John Brown's Army is much more effective than most examples thereof.
* TakingYouWithMe: When the Feds storm his secret HQ, he tries to use his nuclear bomb to blow up New York City rather than be taken alive.

!!Carson Moss

----
* DumbMuscle
* TheDragon: To Dufraisne.
** DragonTheirFeet: [[spoiler:It's possible to play ''Double Agent'' and not even kill him if a certain level isn't unlocked.]]
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: His profile says he's racist, [[InformedFlaw though he never expresses it in game]].

!!Jamie Washington

A ruthless young member of John Brown's Army.
----

* AffablyEvil: He's very nice to the people he considers his friends, but extremely cruel to the ones he does not.
* TheBrute: He's prone to KickTheDog moments when Sam won't do it.
* EvilCripple: Downplayed. He has a pacemaker in his chest to keep his heart regular, but he's otherwise capable and healthy. You can kill him with your pistol's EMP attachment in version 2 of the game, however.
* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: Has complete and utter faith in Sam Fisher's loyalty to the JBA.

!!Enrica Villablanca (Rachel Reenstra)

A former student activist who has found herself working for John Brown's Army.
----

* AffablyEvil: Despite being blackmailed into becoming a member of the JBA, she's still a member and assists in their terrorist activities.
* TheDarkChick: Albeit, an AffablyEvil one.
* DefectingForLove: In the Xbox/PS2/Wii version of ''Double Agent'', Sam develops a genuine romantic attachment to Enrica, and is very pissed when [[spoiler:she's killed by Third Echelon]]. In the Xbox 360/PC version, though, Sam's just playing her for info, and is perfectly happy to kill her in cold blood in order to achieve OneHundredPercentCompletion. She does help Sam by unlocking a coded door for him if he lets her live instead, but he can kill her before she walks away after the door is opened, and no option to knock her unconscious is available.
* TheMedic: Serves in this role.
* MorallyAmbiguousDoctorate: Has a Ph.D. and is working for terrorists.
* NotInThisForYourRevolution: Unlike the other members of the [=JBA=], who are all hardcore anti-government militants, Enrica is essentially an Ivy League wannabe who only sticks around because Emile has enough dirt on her to bury her.
* OptionalSexualEncounter: It's possible, though not required, for Sam and Enrica to hook up in ''Double Agent''.
* UnresolvedSexualTension: With Sam.

* TheManBehindTheMan: [[spoiler:He gives orders to both Reed and V.P. Samson on behalf of Megiddo.]]
* VillainWithGoodPublicity: When he is mentioned on a news program Sam can overhear, he is described as a well-known philanthropist.

!!Colonel Jeremy Prentiss (Trevor Hayes)
A colonel who works for Black Arrow, Prentiss serves as one of Tom Reed's allies during the fifth game,
----
* TheBrute: Of the fifth game.
* ColonelBadass: Subverted, in that the best effort he makes against [[StealthExpert Sam Fisher]] is in a gunship with machine guns and missiles, and he still doesn't manage to hit him.
* HellishCopter: [[spoiler:Dies when his helicopter is hit by missiles fired from Vic Coste's own gunship.]]

* FauxAffablyEvil: Drops his facade when he is called out on his actions.
* FinalBoss: Has a true BossBattle in his finale.
* GeniusBruiser: Conducts and plans a series of meticulous and incredibly destructive terrorist attacks while staying one step ahead of the protagonists, is a former MI6 agent who knows most of the tactics Fourth Echelon will deploy against him and is one of the few antagonists of the franchise to come closest to killing Sam Fisher in a fair fight.
* HannibalLecture: Pulls off a creepy one on a helpless hostage in Iraq, reducing him to a sobbing wreck.
* RogueAgent: Ex-{{MI6}} agent.
* TheUnreveal: [[spoiler:His actual plan is never really elaborated on, aside from that he wants to get some kind of information from the Secretary of Defense's accounts, which he deems to be the most dangerous weapon available to the modern world. He knows not to give a MotiveRant to his enemies.]]
** [[spoiler: WordOfGod is that, in addition to nuclear access codes, he was also seeking all of the United States' massive troves of information to expose their secrets to the world and destroy all of their international relationships.]]
* VillainousBreakdown: Has a brief but spectacular one [[spoiler:when Briggs, [[LikeYouWouldReallyDoIt against all his expectations]], [[DidntSeeThatComing actually kills the Secretary of Defense]]]] complete with a BigNo and a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown.

The leader of Darah Dan Doa, Suhadi Sadono is one of the two members of the BigBadDuumvirate in the second game.
----

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Despite not displaying any remarkable combat skills previously, when you go up against him at the end of the game he has crazy good aim and can kill Sam with ''one shot'' from his pistol. You're not supposed to fight him directly.
* BigBadDuumvirate: With Soth for the second game.
* FeetOfClay: Although the news media portrays Sadono as a cunning and capable guerrilla leader, it's discovered over the course of the campaign that - though charismatic - he's rather incompetent and his successes are mostly due to his allies and his insurance policy.
* DeadManSwitch: His "Pandora Tomorrow" scheme involves several sleeper agents in the U.S. who will detonate smallpox bombs if he is killed or captured, in order to prevent the U.S. interfering with his revolutionary uprising.
* DistractedByTheSexy: Apparently because Karlthson was a woman, he couldn't resist her requests to have full access to his facility when she was captured.
* {{Expy}}: He dresses like UsefulNotes/CheGuevara and shares similar beliefs about [[TheRevolutionWillNotBeCivilized violent revolution]].
* LimaSyndrome: Toward [[{{CIA}} Ingrid Karlthson]].

The President of Georgia during most of the Georgian Information Crisis of the first ''Splinter Cell'' game, Nikoladze has a deep hatred of America, and seeks to attack it subversively.
----

* BigBad: Of the first game.
* CorruptCorporateExecutive: He came to power in Georgia by using his ample funds from the oil business.
* DirtyCommunist: Subverted as he's a post-Soviet villain who is explicitly doing it for the money.
* HeKnowsTooMuch: His knowledge of the "The Ark" ([[spoiler: A nuclear suitcase bomb]]) necessitated his assassination by Fisher before either he or his successor Cristavi could make any use of it.
* MeaningfulName: "Kombayn" means "grain harvester" or "combine", likely a reference to grain working given by his likely Soviet parents.
** The work a combine does is "reaping" a harvest, a modern variation of the age-old scythe; the Georgian President whose name is synonymous with "Reaper" orchestrates a genocidal reaping against the Azerbaijani people and anybody who gets in his way with modern technology.
* MyDeathIsOnlyTheBeginning: Although it's not elaborated on, in later games it's mentioned that assassinating him created several unforseen negative implications, enough that Third Echelon makes a significant effort to capture the major villains of the next two games alive.
* PresidentEvil: Eventually ousted, though, before his assassination.
* SmugSnake: Believed he could take on the United States ''and'' NATO. Even with his electronics-warfare weapons, this takes balls.
** To be fair, Nikoladze never wanted to fight either but Sam exposed his war crimes.

The CIA-chosen Georgian President who replaces Nikoladze after he goes renegade and into hiding.
----
* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: Cristavi was one of Nikoladze's ministers and betrayed him by plotting a CIA-backed coup, becoming president of Georgia to put an end to the crisis. Later on Cristavi offers protection to Nikoladze in exchange for a large sum of money, with the actual intent to keep the Ark for himself, and has Nikoladze's guards shot by his own EliteMooks.
* CorruptPolitician: A CIA-appointed president. He also wants to keep the Ark for himself instead of handing it over to the Americans, for some reason.
* ALighterShadeOfBlack: He's corrupt and wants to keep the Ark for himself, but overthrows the much worse Nikoladze and offers to bring "aid and reconciliation" to Azerbaijan (which was invaded on Nikoladze's orders).
* TortureAlwaysWorks: Cristavi learned the true purpose of the Ark by capturing and having one of Nikoladze's men tortured. Sam Fisher recovers the recording of this interrogation in the last mission.
