This article has been tagged since November 2006. The Fiendish Organization for World Larceny (F.O.W.L.) is a fictional group of villains that attempts to take over the world in the animated series Darkwing Duck. The group is led by High Command, three high ranking F.O.W.L. operatives hidden in the shadows. The organization originated in the DuckTales episode "Double-O-Duck", only there the F in their acronym stood for Foreign, and they were led by Dr. Nogood. They constantly scheme to take over the world, only to be stopped by Darkwing, his allies, and sometimes S.H.U.S.H. operative Agent Grizzlikof. Other members of F.O.W.L. include: FicTioNaL is a Gaming Legend. ...

- Steelbeak - F.O.W.L.'s chief agent, he literally has a beak of steel which he can break strong materials with (how exactly he got it goes unexplained). Suave and debonair, this tux-wearing villain is calm and collected most of the time, but can be angered when his plans start to fail. His name and "power" is a nod to the James Bond villain, Jaws, and his attitude and dress are patterned after Emilio Largo. His name could also be referencing Goldfinger. Once when Steelbeak wondered if he should disobey F.O.W.L. his reflection in a mirror reminded him that when his predecessor tried the same thing, F.O.W.L put the predecessor through six trash compactors. Whenever he comes up against Darkwing Duck, his plans always backfire into disaster like Wile E. Coyote.
- Ammonia Pine - A former cleaning lady who had accidental contact with an untested cleaning detergent. Inhaling the fumes changed her into a cleaning-obsessed villain. She later was recruited by F.O.W.L. for their dastardly plans. She hates (and is even afraid of) dirt.
- Ample Grime - Ample is Ammonia's messy, dirt-loving sister. No origin story is given for why she loves messes so much. She hates and fears cleanliness as much as Ammonia hates dirt, which proves to be a problem when the two are required to team up.
- Major Synapse - The typical R. Lee Ermey type military man-he once sent a Eggmen military unit into an active volcano so it could be "captured"-, he steals S.H.U.S.H.'s Norma Ray, using it to turn his useless hippie underlings into superpowered malcontents. He later used it on himself, turning into a giant head with a giant brain that had major telepathic abilities-until his own stupidity caused his underlings "Hotshot" & "Flygirl" to be flattened by a cartoon anvil-which they are last seen crawling away under-and his own superbrain explodes.
- Hotshot - One of Major Synapse's hippie underlings changed by the Norma Ray. He controls both fire and ice.
- Flygirl - One of Major Synapse's hippie underlings changed by the Norma Ray. She can move things with her mind and can also fly.
- Eggmen - F.O.W.L.'s henchmen and soldiers, dress in all-yellow jumpsuits with white helmets. Possibly a reference to the Beatles song "I am the Walrus".
- Dr. Nogood - The former head of F.O.W.L. (an obvious parody of Ernst Stavro Blofeld as well as Dr. No), who plotted to render all the world's paper money worthless by making it blank using a special "vanishing spray." He was presumably killed falling into a vat of the chemicals used to make the spray. {Note-another Darkwing Duck villain, Liquidator, also fell into a chemical compound and was presumed dead - until he came back in "liquid" form.} His plan to make money worthless would later be attempted by High Command, with Ammonia Pine using cleaning agents to wash the ink off paper money.
- Feathers Galore - A parody of Pussy Galore, Feathers was an agent of F.O.W.L.'s as well as the girlfriend of Bruno Von Beak. She turned good after she fell in love with Launchpad McQuack.
- Oddduck - Dr. Nogood's silent bodyguard, a large goon with a black bowler - an obvious parody of Oddjob.
