The Network Killers
(AU Starts Here)
A new NetCriminal organization that's been rapidly building up a power base in Dimmsdale. It's led by DarkLaser.EXE, a powerful Sword-Element solo Darkloid (aka a NetNavi that's been corrupted by/born from the power of Dark Energy) who claims to be a digital imprint of an actual intergalactic warlord. Even if it's not true he's at least legitimately extraterrestrial in origin. He created the Network Killers as the first step in amassing enough power and resources to rebuild his empire from the ground up with Earth as his first conquest and new base of operations.
He's got an army of loyal followers at his disposal, both human and digital, but these are just some of the most prominent.
Mary Alice, operator of the Invisible-Element Navi Doombringer.EXE. Doombringer has an alternate form called Sunshine.EXE with completely different abilities, even becoming Recovery-Element instead, and the two use this and their mastery of deception to be the NK's top espionage agents.
Norm, operator of the Wind-Element DjinMan.EXE. Both joined for the chance to cause chaos as a way of getting revenge on a world that's fucked them over one too many times.
Remy Buxaplenty, severely affection-starved heir to the Buxaplenty family fortune, and his Null-Element Navi and only friend Juandissimo, who's official designation is SexyMan.EXE due to losing a bet against his Solo-Navi friend Cupid.EXE. Juandissimo's been trying to convince Remy that they should leave the NK before they get hurt or do something they can't take back, but the kid's stubborn. (Fun Fact: Sexy Man is an actual official Robot Master, if only on a technicality. It's one of a series of eight created by Auto in the manga series Rockman Maniax, specifically in a reoccurring gag comic called Doctor Auto's Laboratory. As you'd expect from who exactly their creator is, Sexy Man and his siblings are a bunch of weirdos whose designs would be questionable even if they actually functioned properly. Which they don't.)
Pop Star Britanny Britanny and her equally flashy Cursor-Element Navi PlatinumWoman.EXE. Apparently becoming the second most popular Dimmsdale-based pop star after Chip Skylark came onto the scene was enough to turn them to a double-life of crime.
The brothers SpringMan.EXE and GrenadeMan.EXE, who as you might guess are solo Navis. SpringMan is Null-Element while GrenadeMan is Obstacle-Element
Also, PencilMan eventually turns on Timmy's Dad and joins the NK looking for revenge on humanity.
