** Robomaster, a robotic superweapon originally built during the UsefulNotes/ColdWar by a bunch of [[KnightsTemplar conspiracy theorists with spare time on their hands]] to annihilate humanity so that humanity would not suffer from a nuclear war. Scrapped when he developed a [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway heart.]] A white elephant in that he's too overly emotional for violence, so he's the League's political insider.

** The EvilClown, [[TheQuietOne a mercenary that doesn't talk much.]] He wears a mask with a smiley face on it at all times to hide his actual facial expression as part of some strange superstition of his. It's speculated that he's just plain ugly.

* Big Daddy-The mysterious BigBad who is always cloaked in shadow and wears a horned helmet with a [[RuleOfCool massive and apparently functioning eyeball on it despite the fact it would make him vulnerable]]. He wants the hero and Oberon dead for unclear reasons. Loves a good XanatosGambit.

*{{Unfunny}}: Titania and the hero.
