Dark Siders

The Dark Siders is a small evil legion created and led by Vladmir Kurtz. The idea was originally thought up by Keith Offenheimer as a harmless club but Vlad turned it into... something else. In the Gen 3 story, the Dark Siders only consisted of 7 members: Vlad Kurtz, Jestress Singel, Keith Offenheimer, Gorgen, Sky Deathstar, Anita Wallita and Blietrah. It doesn't gain any more members until later on in the future.

Coincidentally each member represents one of the 7 deadly sins: Vlad being Pride, Jestress being Wrath, Keith being Envy, Gorgen being Gluttony, Sky being Lust, Anita being Greed and Blietrah being Sloth.

The Dark Siders was admitted to the Society of Evil Legions in story Arc 7, where it became recognized as an official evil organization. They currently thrive off of selling weapons to Penguian terrorists in exchange for resources while living in a secret base in the Vi Awki Desert.

Vlad's original intention for the Dark Siders was to create an army of evildoers who would obay his every command, but instead, it ends up becoming some sort of "safe haven" for outcasts and misfits who have been ostracized from society. When he realizes that his evil legion had become more a charity organization, he starts to become much more reluctant to allow others in. Much to Vlad's dismay, many more oddballs, evil or not, would start proposing to join them in order to find a place they finally belong.
