First ever art 👀

Okay low-key terrified to post this on here but I’ve been working on it for like days (it should not have taken that long 😭).

FINALLY, got an iPad like a week ago so learning to draw digitally instead of on paper has been an 🥀experience🥀.

But it has been fun!

Praying I get better, but without further ado I present Vile faculty Carmen.

(Umm for anyone waiting on my ao3 works, I haven’t forgotten I’ve just been… busy… real busy. Like gotten my first job and starting uni busy. 🫢)

Don’t do adulthood guys. stay in school *finger guns*

[d3ad0fn1ght]

About the WOEICS Carmen wiki:

This is the description of the wiki:

As @carm3nmonoxide pointed out they were confused as to why Carmen was taken by The Chief. I just realized thanks to them that Carmen was not taken under the Chief's tutelage b/c in the S4 episode "Retribution - The Unsinkable Carmen Sandiego, Pt. 1" we don't know much about her backstory about who adopted her in Golden Gate Girls School and it could be Shadow-san/Suhara like in the CS19 show. I realize that I made the same mistake by copy-pasting the wiki and I should change it.

I think the person who wrote this wiki were confused in mixing the Inspector and the Chief...unless you assume that the Chief who took Carmen in was a literal robot which no I mean the C.H.I.E.F-bot was made in some A.C.M.E headquarters just recently during that time. I have a headcanon that the Chief did exist just in a different location if you consider my AU but if you don't consider my AU idk the Chief was just a high-ranking officer in the SFPD I guess OR A.C.M.E was located near the P.I. in San Francisco.

It is possible that A.C.M.E was located in San Francisco but as I said in my first post in Part 1 on Tumblr why would a global law enforcement agency in the WOEICS series that deals with advanced CPU and memory banks and advanced time travel be located in the U.S. in San Francisco, CA?

The Inspector has a different rank, "An 'Inspector' in detective work is typically a high-ranking, sworn police officer, not a private investigator (PI). They lead investigations, supervise detectives, and manage police teams. In some areas, such as the San Francisco Police Department, 'Inspector' is used as the title for a detective, while in others, it is a senior management rank."

Here is the actual Inspector as Carmen addresses him clearly, "It doesn't add up, Inspector." when discussing Malestrom's stolen artifacts:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

On another note, I do have a headcanon I will probably incorporate into my AU:

Requested by @carm3nmonoxide: Carmen Sandiego’s backstory after Golden Gate Girls (Suhara adopted her)

So @carm3nmonoxide reminded me that Suhara was Carmen’s adoptive parent and NOT Malcom Avalon, the reason I made this mistake was b/c at the time I wrote Part 2: Point NEMO AU Tumblr post I wrote so much I couldn’t think of a parent other than Malcom when I wrote that but @carm3nmonoxide reminded me so ty.

Suhara, the Inspector, and Liam Monaghan who at the time was not injured. Ivy's father was a Lieutenant in the San Francisco Police Department (SFPD) Crime Prevention Company and at the height of his career was tasked with directing the operations of SFPD SWAT (https://tecs.fandom.com/wiki/Ivy_Monaghan) I also give credit to the findcarmen.com wiki Admin(s) who made the TECS fandom wiki.

Young Carmen during that time worked around the P.I office where she was tinkering with Suhara’s study room or went to read in the P.I. agency’s library etc. Make up your own headcanon as to what she did here until she turned 17 yrs old. I would like to make a distinction early on…

P.I. vs. A.C.M.E.

🕵️‍♀️ A private investigator (P.I.) agency is:

Usually run by one person (especially in classic detective fiction)

Sometimes a small office with maybe a partner or assistant (C.H.I.E.F robot given by A.C.M.E as a gift to Carmen)

Privately owned, not government-funded

Takes individual cases (missing persons, theft, etc.)

Operates outside official law enforcement

👉 A P.I. setup ≠ a massive organization like A.C.M.E

🔎 WOEICS Carmen Timeline Theory (My Interpretation)

Carmen (at 17) was NOT originally part of A.C.M.E

Her early setup as a P.I. with a small, run-down office suggests:

Independent work

No government backing

No access to A.C.M.E resources

🏢 What this implies about A.C.M.E

A.C.M.E likely was NOT based in San Francisco at the time

The idea that A.C.M.E is a local agency or a CIA-like location based on the U.S. doesn’t hold up

Instead, A.C.M.E is:

A larger, distant organization

Possibly operating off-site / internationally

Not something a 17-year-old Carmen could just walk into

🌊 Point Nemo Fan-Theory (my WOEICS Prequel AU logic)

A.C.M.E being located at Point Nemo explains:

Why it feels detached from normal society

Why its authority is global, not local

Why agents operate across countries so easily

🤖 C.H.I.E.F Evidence

The robot C.H.I.E.F being highly advanced suggests:

Access to technology far beyond a normal agency

Centralized control system (not just a boss, but infrastructure)

The A.C.M.E logo on the screen implies:

The robot is directly tied to the organization’s core system

A.C.M.E is more technocratic than it appears

🧩 Conclusion

Carmen started as an independent P.I., not an agent

A.C.M.E is a separate, larger power structure

Its true base (Point Nemo in my AU) explains:

its reach

its tech

and its detachment from the real world

Also, yeah, the C.H.I.E.F might be wrong in that same episode when he said, "We, me and a famous ex-detective by the name of Carmen Sandiego...Yep. Back when she was one of us. Say it loud and say it proud, but just say it, ACME detectives!" but I don't think he was lying. -> This is based around my AU lore which is why I think the C.H.I.E.F is wrong, but you can think of this quote as correct also.

Spoilers for my AU: I think his memory got wiped but I don't want to spoil too much. Carmen Sandiego was a detective in that P.I. agency but she was recruited by A.C.M.E. and the P.I. agency office was in affiliation with the SFPD. Carmen also ran her own P.I. firm hence why she has her own office.

A.C.M.E the global law enforcement agency bribed Carmen by giving her a robot, the organization probably told the Inspector to lure in Carmen with a shiny gift. The Inspector does not know the organization personally since he works for the SFPD, so he was a poor victim but instigator for Carmen in all of this.

Edit: I changed my mind about the Inspector and A.C.M.E's relationship since I told @carm3nmonoxide that Suhara was a part of A.C.M.E not the P.I. Suhara/Shadow-san did work with the P.I. but as a spokesperson for A.C.M.E. This means Suhara was the one along with A.C.M.E who convinced the Inspector to bribe Carmen to work for the organization...this is similar to my Point NEMO Part 2 AU where Suhara told Chase a similar thing about how Chase needed to 'control' Carmen to be in the shape of Suhara's image.

As you can tell, Suhara hides his intentions behind Carmen which I am foreshadowing in the future where Carmen isn't angry but calmly tells Suhara about how reshaping her will not help overcome his past with his former pupils (this will make sense if you read Part 2 of what happened to Adam and Raven).

V.I.L.E Operatives

V.I.L.E didn’t remerge over night, no, it took years for the global organization of villainy to resurface. With many of its members behind bars and V.I.L.E. Academy torn down, they had to find and recruit new operatives another way. Under one sole leader, not the previously established heads, V.I.L.E will create fear, havoc, and chaos through their crimes.

This is the new generation of V.I.L.E.

Tybalt AKA Jauger

Sheena/Tigress’s son and heir.

An expert catburgler and devoted to V.I.L.E.

Aggressive, temperamental, and egotistic.

Uses a variety of gadgets and acrobatics to scale tough terrain.

Tybalt is Andre’s rival, a fact he loathes as he believes he should be leagues above everyone else. Yet this punk in a red fedora manages to constantly outwit him.

Slash

Paper Star’s prodigy.

Okay, no one is really sure what her deal is, just that she’s creepy.

Paper Star just showed up one day with this kid and no one dared to object to her.

Uses knives…so many knives.

Delights in the sight of blood. (‘Let’s see if your blood is as red as your hat~’)

Maya Delores AKA Pierrotte

Mime Bomb’s apprentice.

She is a chatterbox (ironic considering who her mentor is).

A clown who uses misdirection and distraction to fool her targets.

Uses tools that can be used as clown props (I mean she’s a clown, what do you expect?).

Is actually dark skinned, she just wears a lot of clown make up (the Picrew did not do a good job showing that)

Tells puns, really bad puns.

Would rather run away than use violence.

Is really in V.I.L.E just for the thrill.

Saira Bellum the II AKA The Doctor

Saira Bellum’s…kid? Clone? Robot? No one really knows and considering it was Dr. Bellum, no one wants to really ask.

Could technically be a head of V.I.L.E., but she really doesn’t want that kind of responsibility in her shoulders.

A tecnogenius and a brilliant hacker. The only one could match her intellect is the user known as Scarlet_R.

Plays video games while in meetings.

Prideful, extremely competitive, and will do anything to get ahead of everyone else.

Likes cats.

Hideo Miyzawa AKA Akuma

Eiko’s brother.

He sees it as a privilege to be apart of the V.I.L.E, and is more than fine with the criminal lifestyle.

He fights against Echo the most out of all of Team Crimson, hoping to bring his sister back to him and their family (more like drag her back kicking and screaming).

Is skilled in stealth and espionage.
