History: First Season History (Full Wiki Entry)
Personality:
Six is a rather stoic man. He often comes across as cold, even unemotional. He doesn't say much, making what he doesn't say just as important if not more so than what he does. Because of the sunglasses he almost never takes off, he's very difficult to read.
While he may not have a genius-level intellect, Six is rather intelligent, able to analyze a situation swiftly and efficiently. Particularly on the battlefield. For example, while an EVO'd Noah had been on the rampage, Six managed to stop a pedestrian bridge from falling by using his katanas to slice through a pair of light poles and maneuver them into place to support the bridge. (Full details on these swords are in his inventory under the "Powers" section.)
As a former mercenary assassin, orders are orders though he'll choose to ignore them if he finds them unreasonable enough. He can also be rather suspicious, constantly keeping an eye on his surroundings in case of a threat. He'll also spend a good chunk of his off-hours training.
However, there's more to Six's personality than the unemotional soldier. He can be incredibly stubborn when he puts his mind to it. He has occasionally shown a rather dry sense of humor though Noah has complained that he hates it when Six "tries to be funny". Most of these flashes, however, seem to occur only when in the company of those people he chooses to protect and possibly care for.
Also, he has at times acted a bit paternal towards Rex. He'd been willing to walk away and leave Rex behind in the hidden village of engineers, even telling the boy that it was a nice place as a hint. Of course, he's obviously not the perfect parent. While he will offer some words of advice, there are some topics which he's no help on, one example being women whom he admits he doesn't have a clue about.
Six would later mention to Rex that he'd once been well on his way to becoming the new One. What changed that was Six meeting Rex. Coupled with his statement to Dos that the Spaniard's problem was that he lacked mercy and the fact that Six had been unwilling to show his father figure the "mercy" of death like his "siblings" had when it became obvious that One was incurable, it's easy to deduce that what ranks Six last among the six most dangerous people on Earth is because he isn't as ruthless and merciless as the others.
He also possesses a sense of honor. When Holiday's sister had been re-captured, Knight had demanded to know why she was still alive. Six reminded Knight that the deal Holiday had made was that as long as her sister didn't kill anyone, it was allowed to stay in the special pen designed for her. He'd even ordered the troops to handle Holiday's sister carefully.
Powers and abilities:
While Six does possess nanites that could one day transform him into a rampaging EVO, he hasn't transformed yet.
Instead, years of training means he is in peak physical condition, allowing him to handle a lot more than the average human. As one of the Numbers, the most dangerous people on Earth, his level of training allows him to go toe-to-toe with EVOs many, many times his size and even win despite having no powers whatsoever. He can also move shockingly fast, at times seeming to be little more than a blur.
He's an incredibly skilled martial artist, an expert swordsman and acrobat, and skilled with knife-throwing. He favors certain weapons, but only uses guns as blunt weapons, choosing to throw them or swing them into opponents rather than firing them.
He's incredibly stealthy, usually managing to slip up behind people with only the barest hints of sound even when just casually walking around. This can lead to him startling others even unintentionally.
He also has an almost encyclopedic knowledge of things that can kill you even without them having gone EVO.
Instead of special powers, he instead has quite the impressive inventory:
- Magna Blades
- A pair of collapsible swords that he literally keeps up his sleeves that can spring forward with a flick of the wrists, the blades appearing like a set of handles connected to round pieces when folded. Sharp enough to slice through most objects with ease, these are Six's primary weapons. They also can be combined to form a double-bladed staff or a powerful electromagnet. They can also channel electricity though the blades can become overcharged to a point where they can potentially kill their wielder.
- Shuriken
- A special set of shuriken blades which pop out from a circular device similar to the magna blades. The blades are sharp enough to pierce metal but have been shown to be ineffective at times depending upon the opponent.
- Green Suit
- Though Six wore body armor for most of his time in the Numbers and during the early days of Providence, Six typically wears a green suit with brown dress shoes. There's usually a tin of mints in one jacket inside pocket.
- Sunglasses
- Six keeps his eyes hidden behind a set of dark green sunglasses that he almost never takes off. He will even wear them in underwater gear.
Chosen faction: Undine
Suitability: Six is very much a "still waters run deep" sort of person. That and his former life as a mercenary assassin means it's natural for him to keep secrets and move stealthily.

Questions, comments, and concerns: The nanites are a major issue in Six's world. I have an entire reference guide to summarize the basics of what a huge issue they are. Six never turned in the series so any EVO forms for him that can be found online are purely fan designs. However, since Rex is the only one who can cure EVOs and he is 16 and ineligible to be applied here, I'm willing to say that while Six is concerned that he could go EVO and takes steps to try and limit collateral damage, he never actually will in game. That and to prevent an unplanned pandemic in game, the nanites are limited to Six's body and cannot be passed on in any way, shape, or form.
