Added DiffLines:

* FullNameUltimatum: Often catches an irritated ''"Vincent..."'' from Dave when the latter finds him particularly overbearing.

Added DiffLines:

* ImmunityDisability: The show makes it very clear that not being able to feel anything really, really sucks. From having his kitchen plastered in sticky notes reminding him the stove is hot and his knives are sharp to having to ask Audrey to check the temperature of his coffee so he doesn't burn himself, it's obvious this is something that affects every aspect of Nathan's life.

Added DiffLines:

* TheCasanova: He's very much a lady's man, particularly in the early seasons when he has a new date nearly every episode. He's quite the charmer and has no problem flirting his way out of trouble.


Added DiffLines:

* LadykillerInLove: Usually TheCasanova, even after after becoming part of a LoveTriangle with Nathan and Audrey, he falls and falls ''hard'' in season 4 for Jennifer. This brings out a very soft and tender side of him not seen before this, and makes [[spoiler: her death]] that much more devestating.

Teagues, she dresses up for a dinner at a suspected Troubled chef's restaurant. The Teagues come through again in "As You Were," gifting her a nice dress and shoes for her birthday party. In season 5, a DreamWeaver sets his sites on her, leading to a DreamSequence in which she prepares for her wedding to him, complete with fairy-tale wedding gown and tiara.

* LoveTranscendsSpaceTime: All of the overlays Nathan meets are drawn to him. Lucy even tells him so even though she's the overlay he had the least contact with. Ironically, Mara can't stand him. This trope is what inspires Audrey to do...

Added DiffLines:

* FriendlessBackground: The overlays tend to be this way. Both Sarah and Audrey claim Nathan as their FirstFriend, for instance. It's never explained why, but it does mean the overlays do not have people looking for them nor do they miss anyone and seek out friends and family, which would ruin TheMasquerade.

-->'''Played by:''' Creator/SteveLund

In 1983, his unidentified dead body was found in Haven. The case was investigated by Garland Wuornos, who didn't really get anywhere and closed it. The mystery of his death and identity is one of the driving questions of the show. He is eventually revealed to be James Cogan, son of Audrey's past incarnation Sarah Vernon and a time-traveling Nathan. He was also the husband of Arla Cogan, the woman who became the Bolt Gun Killer.

away.


Added DiffLines:

* DisappearsIntoLight: [[spoiler: When Nathan shoots him to prevent the Barn leaving, his body starts emitting rays of light, as does the Barn]].
* TheNeedsOfTheMany: He is unconcerned with Audrey's desires to stay or with her hand-wringing about essentially dying once she heads into the Barn. He knows it needs to happen for the Troubles to end for another 27 years.
* OlderThanTheyLook: He appears as a middle-aged man, but has been with the Barn since it was created 500 years ago; episodes like "Sarah" reveal he's been around for years.
* TheWatcher: In "Thanks for the Memories," he describes himself as Audrey's "ride." He is there to drop her off at the appropriate time, and pick her up at the appropriate time. The show demonstrates he's a little more than that, since it's also his job to make sure the overlay stays in Haven to help the Troubled, but he's only ever seen a handful of times.
