Dr. Saira Bellum

Dr. Saira Bellum is a member of V.I.L.E. and one of the V.I.L.E. Faculty who teaches at V.I.L.E. Academy. She teaches the operatives on how to operate the technology she created for missions. A genius in many different fields, she has contributed greatly to V.I.L.E.'s technical capabilities, and is also fond of watching cat videos on the Internet, researching baking recipes, and enjoys doing various other things that seem to go against the more serious personalities that her fellow teachers tend to display.
Bellum constructs and develops all the advance technology for V.I.L.E., and has R&D labs in various other countries working on technological and biological weapons, such as specialized crop-destroying fungus spores, mind manipulation devices, and robot thieves.
Bellum has also shown to have a genuine fondness for at least some of her students, but she has shown a dark side, being willing to destroy Indonesia's rice fields in order to sell V.I.L.E. instant imitation rice to the population at an inflated cost, with seemingly little regard for the starving people who wouldn't be able to afford the large prices. She absolutely abhors idioms and turns of phrase, as they can easily confuse her.
Originally from India, Dr. Bellum is a scientist who had a penchant for inventing elaborate devices. Having been one of the five members of V.I.L.E. Academy who contributed to Black Sheep's upbringing, she was one of the four members who supported her admission to V.I.L.E. Academy.
After the incident in Morocco, Bellum monitored Black Sheep, hoping it would make her more complacent to V.I.L.E. for her remedial year knowing she was being watched.

Dr. Bellum is a small woman with a bushy white Mohawk, who is always seen wearing a pair of teal colored welding-style goggles, which are prescription and necessary for her to see, and a white lab coat.

As one of the five masterminds of V.I.L.E., Dr. Bellum has near supreme authority in the organization.
Dr. Bellum is a genius inventor who is capable of creating various inventions and weapons used by V.I.L.E., including the Crackle Rod, surveillance drones, rice destroying spores, memory-erasing glasses, subliminal message inserting devices, and jetpacks.

Professor Maelstrom deals in symbolic crime; various ways to prove that evil will triumph over law and order. Examples of this include the attempt to steal the Magna Carta, and his desire to turn a historically significant gold coin into a set of cuff links.
Countess Cleo focuses on stealing priceless treasures and art and replacing them with forgeries, enabling her to keep them as trophies or resell to the criminal underworld. The Eye of Vishnu was kept in her residence in Poitiers, France, and it was Cleo who organized the thefts of the paintings of Vermeer.
Coach Brunt is the muscle and fighter of the faculty. Her schemes are usually simple-minded and mostly involve intimidating and hurting enemies with her strength. Crackle, after being released from police custody, made a joke about Brunt wanting him to steal the finest eclairs in Paris.
