The "secret society" thing is Troynos' and Tyroc's thing, I was just throwing a suggestion their way. But thanks anyway

I'm pretty sure it was different for the comics and the cartoon. In the original Marvel comics, the only ones we know for sure contributed DNA to Serpentor were Julius Caesar, Napoleon Bonaparte, Attila the Hun, Alexander the Great, Hannibal, Genghis Khan, and Storm-Shadow. In the later Devil's Due comics, this list was expanded to include Vlad Tepes, Ivan the Terrible, and Philip II of Macedon.
In the cartoon, Serpentor was created from the DNA of Napoleon Bonaparte, Montezuma, Alexander the Great, Genghis Khan, Vlad Tepes, Ivan the Terrible, an unnamed Egyptian Pharaoh (maybe Amenhotep III?), and Sgt. Slaughter. Cobra tried to get a sample of Sun Tzu's DNA, but they were stopped by the Joes, and this was used to explain Serpentor's impetuousness (since he lacked Sun Tzu's wisdom and patience).
