Agent Six is an agent of Providence and Rex's handler. And the sixth most dangerous person in this world
Appearance[]
In the first few seasons, Agent Six can be seen wearing a green suit with a black tie and black sunglasses. His appearance bears a strong resemblance to an agent from the Matrix series.
In later seasons following an event involving his memories, he is seen wearing a similarly colored tactical bodysuit.
Personality[]
Agent Six is stoic, quiet, and incredibly efficient. Due to his strict by-the-book personality, it's made clear that he only tolerates Rex, and few other Evos, that fight on the side of good to help stop aggressive or dangerous Evos. He appears initially to be devoid of any kind of relevant emotion (perhaps as a result of some personal tragedy). He seems to be either unaware or uncaring of other people's emotions as well. This was evident in the way he reacted to 1) Dr. Holiday's crush on him (as she at one time attempted to hold his hand) and 2) the true extent of Rex's psychological fear of failing him, as Dr. Holiday in one episode points out. His response to the latter was that Rex needed to gain more control over his emotions through training.
Weapons[]
Six possess a pair of fold out katanas hidden in the sleeves of his green suit jacket. He extremely skilled in the use of these swords, as well as possessing extremely advanced martial arts skills.
- Katana
Six is a master swordsman who wields two fold-out katanas that are hidden in the sleeves of his green suit jacket when not in use in. He is described by Rex on the official Generator Rex website as being able to do "things with swords [he's] never even seen in kung fu flicks".
The katanas themselves may be joined at the ends of their hilts to form a double-edged bowstaff. Six is seen fighting with the katanas like this in the tenth episode of season one, The Forgotten. It can be assumed from this that he was also trained in the use of a bow staff.
These swords can be combined from the handle to the bend of the blades to form something similar to a tuning fork, which can me used as a large magnet.
- Tantō
It is revealed in the episode "Promises, Promises" that Six carries a Tantō, given to him by his former partner and best friend, The White Knight. He gives Rex this weapon's twin, which is inscribed with the symbol of loyalty for his birthday, and states that it is a symbol that they are going down the same path together. Many fans speculate that the one Six gives to Rex was once owned by White, and was given to Six when their friendship ended.
Codename[]
It was revealed in the episode Divided By Six that Agent Six's codename was given to him by a secret order because he is the sixth most dangerous man on the planet. Above him are Five, IV, Tre, Dos, and One, who trained all of them.
Six implies that One took him in when he was homeless, or at least down on his luck. It can be assumed this happened when he was very young. He can be seen without his iconic sunglasses for the first time at the end of this episode when he removes them after speaking with his mentor for the last time, before One becomes, "one with everything."
Before Divided By Six aired, there were several fan-suggested theories as to the origin of Six's codename:
- One of the more popular explanations is that he is one of six to twelve elite agents working for Providence, and that he is the sixth most powerful of all of them. This is partially true.
- Another theory says that he is the sixth agent assigned as Rex's handler, and that the other five couldn't deal with Rex's personality. This was proven false in the episode "Promises, Promises" when it is revealed that Six was Rex's only handler.
- Many people believe he is named so because he is the sixth deadliest man in the world. This was proven true.
- Some suggested that 'Six' may simply be a surname. This could makes sense, as Captain Callen is referred to by his surname. Though technically possible, it remains highly unlikely.
- Others theorized that Six is the sixth person to come in contact with the evos. While this may be true, it has nothing to do with his codename.
