The Hellfire Club

The Hellfire Club is an alliance of villains from many worlds, created by the evil witch Maleficent. They are not as tightly knit as some other villain groups, but work together to conquer the worlds. A few of them joined of their own will, while others were black-mailed into it by Maleficent. They are the arch-enemies of Team Paladin

Maleficent
The leader of the Hellfire Club. Her homeworld is the Enchanted Dominion. An evil and powerful witch of the darkness, most well-known for her attempt to take over the universe, but her plan was foiled by the keybearer, Sora. She was stabbed by Riku when he was possessed by Ansem, Seeker of Darkness, and eventually killed by Sora, Donald, and Goofy. She was resurrected a year later, and helped Sora and his friends when they were confronted with a heartless army in the World that Never Was. She survived, and took control of the Castle that Never Was. Some time later, Phoenix came to the World that Never Was in her search for Omega, and she met Maleficent, who tried to coax her into taking the darkness. Phoenix defeated her, and made a permanent enemy out of Maleficent.

Pete
Maleficent's right-hand man. His homeworld is the Kingdom of Disney. He was a servant in the castle, until he tried to kidnap Queen Minnie. Mickey--not yet King--defeated him, and won the heart of Minnie. Pete was imprisoned for a short while, and after certain events, King Mickey sealed him into another plane of Existence. He was freed by Maleficent, and proceeded to begin making a heartless army for her, even after her demise and resurrection. Since the taking of the Nobody base as their own, Pete has been seeking out potential members of the Hellfire Club.

Professor Hojo
An insane and sadistic scientist. His homeworld is Midgar. He is the biological father of Sephiroth, and the cause of all of the horrible things that have happened in the Compilation of Final Fantasy VII. He was thought to have been killed by Cloud and Co. but it was revealed that he had uploaded his mind into an equivalent of the Internet. He possessed a Tsviet, but was killed again, and it was thought that he had been eradicated. However, Maleficent, with some assistance, collected the remnants of his mind and implanted them into a robotic body. However, he has a tendency to be a bit absent-minded because of missing bits of his mind. He attempted to fuse part of the Chaos Force into Tails, and while successful, he was almost killed by Sonic and Knuckles.

Sho Minamimoto
A Reaper with a thing for mathematics. His homeworld is Shibuya. He became the Game Master of the Reaper's game, with the intent to wipe out the biggest threat, Neku Sakuraba. However, he lost to Neku and was thought to have been erased after absorbing Taboo Noise. It was later revealed that he had tried to kill the Composer, the creator of the Reaper's Game, but failed to do so. Maleficent retrieved his soul from the Realm of Darkness, with the promise that he would stay in her service. Unknowing to Team Paladin, he was the one who took away Neku's friends, sealing away their souls into Pins.

The Phantom Blot
The Blot for short, an evil conglomeration of paint and thinner. He originally came from the Timeless River. He spends his days trying to complete evil plans to take over the world, but most of the time fails thanks to Mickey and Co. He is skilled in hypnosis, disguise, escapism, and is knowledgeable on a variety of subjects. He has also recently acquired the ability to steal the colors from a person, turning them gray-scale, then use their abilities. However, he has a weakness to water.

Seymour Guado
A Yevon Maester and malicious Unsent. His homeworld is Spira. He tried to marry Yuna, so that he could become the Final Aeon and become Sin itself, a gargantuan whale-like creature, but was defeated by her friends. He managed to escape from the Farplane, and allied himself with Maleficent to get revenge. He is skilled in magic and summoning.

Prince Charming
A handsome man who thinks too much of himself. His homeworld is Far, Far Away, literally and figuratively. He is skilled in the use of a sword, and also gained the Power of Darkness from Maleficent. He is now truly a threat, rather than how he was before.

Zexion
Former number VI of Organization XIII, the Cloaked Schemer. He tried to take control of Riku, to counter Marluxia's control of Sora, but Marluxia was killed by Sora, Donald, and Goofy, so Zexion took the form of Sora and tried to eliminate Riku with light. Zexion was mortally wounded by Riku, and then absorbed by the Riku Replica at Axel's urging. However, his Lexicon remained in the physical world, and Sho Minamimoto recreated him from this.

Saix
Former number VII of Organization XIII, the Luna Diviner, also referred to as the Berserker. When Axel kidnapped Kairi, Saix took Kairi from him to anger Sora. When Namine helped Kairi escape, Saix confronted them, and was about to kill them when Riku appeared. That moment of anger and pure unselfishness caused Riku to gain a keyblade, and he chased Saix away. Saix was killed by Sora while begging for his heart. Because of the strength that the moon gave him, Saix returned to the physical world, albeit in an unstable form. Only while the moon waxes does he remain stable, but at the new moon, he is nothing more than a ghost.

Phoenix King Ozai
Once a powerful firebender, reduced to a shell of his former self. His homeworld is Incarnate. He had his bending abilities taken away by Avatar Aang, and he was imprisoned. Pete came to the prison and freed Ozai. Maleficent restored his firebending abilities, however, Ozai soon discovered that he had to re-learn firebending. When Team Paladin first encountered him, he was at the approximate skill level that Zuko was at when Aang was freed from the iceberg. The chances of him ever returning to his original skill level are very, very low.

Slade
A mysterious man. He comes from Jump City, in the Author Fighters world. He is the arch-enemy of the Teen Titans, and a powerful villain. He has enhanced physical abilities, a healing factor, high intelligence, knowledge of many styles of martial arts, and is an expert in psychological warfare.
