Line 12:
* [[Evil Genius|The Evil Genius]] - Counterpart to [[The Smart Guy]]. Operates the weapons or acts as [[Mission Control]] for the others. Often essential to the evil scheme; their screwing up could mean the entire thing falls apart. Most likely of this group to be [[Bad Boss]]'d for this very reason. Ironically, being less manically evil doesn't make them a better candidate for a [[Heel Face Turn]], as they are often just completely amoral. More prone to insanity or [[Bunny Ears Lawyer|other quirks]] than others. Very likely to be a [[Mad Scientist]] (or an [[Evil Sorcerer]] in fantasy-oriented works).
* [[The Brute]] - Counterpart to [[The Big Guy]]. If [[The Dragon]] doesn't lead the [[Mooks]], they will. While likely not better in a fight than [[The Dragon]], is often the most physically powerful and often the most sadistic. Likes to fight and get his hands dirty, and is usually second best to [[The Dragon]] at doing so. Oh, and they are [[Giant Mook|big]], and sometimes ([[Genius Bruiser|but not always]]) [[Dumb Muscle|pretty dim]].
* [[Dark Chick|The Dark Chick]] - The counterpart to [[The Chick]], they can vary quite significantly, and is chiefly defined by looking or acting wildly different from the other members, adding color to the group. It's this member that stands out for one reason or another, and may be considered the "freak" or loose cannon of the group, particularly by her own members. If in an [[Sliding Scale Longof NameIdealism Versus Cynicism|optimistic setting,]] she will be the one most likely to be [[High Heel Face Turn|redeemed and not die horrifically]] (and probably hook up with [[The Hero]] or [[The Lancer]]). If not, then she becomes a one part [[Dating Catwoman|Dominatrix]] and one part [[Yandere]] for [[The Hero]] (if male, with [[Psycho Lesbian|exceptions]]) if she holds any type of [[Dating Catwoman|romantic interest]] towards him at all. It's also possible for her to be in love with [[The Dragon]] or the [[Big Bad]].
 
Also frequent is for the group to get a [[Sixth Ranger]] of its own—possibly a [[Sixth Ranger Traitor]]. Sometimes there'll even be a more classical [[The Lancer|Lancer]]. Just like with the [[Five-Man Band]], the former can either be a [[Face Heel Turn]] or just simply a third entity that eventually joins them and the latter is a member that undergoes a [[Heel Face Turn]] (although the member doesn't necessarily have to join the heroes opposing the organization). It's extraordinarily rare for a Five-Bad Band to get a [[Team Pet]], though. However, when they do, [[Fluffy the Terrible|it]] will be out on the field of battle trying to ream [[Red Shirt|redshirts]] of the team to death or is seen consuming [[Mooks]] like treats.
