* NonActionBigBad: The Office prefer to use intermediaries to do all their dirty work, first using the Heroes to disrupt MegaCorp operations, then using a team of imposters to assassinate the President, both actions which are designed to bring the {{Mega Corp}}s into line. After this, they try and have the Heroes killed by an assassin in order to tie up any loose ends. The Heroes don't even get to fight them with them instead being killed by the Mega Corps who betray them when the truth about the Presidential assassination gets out (Though how the video evidence is somehow able to tie The Office to that event isn't entirely clear).

* DemolitionsExpert: Silver Weir was sent to SPC-14 for blowing up several corporate buildings and even invented a new type of grenade. She's the one who takes down the assassin by attaching a mine to his back. However, she does lack the RequiredSecondaryPowers of the strength to throw grenades over long distances, forcing her to hand one over to Slice in one instance to do the job instead.

* {{EMP}}: In order to bust into Mercury National's HQ, the Heroes obtain a portable EMP generator about the size of a small suitcase. While it gets them past the alarm system, it breaks down at an inopportune moment when the Heroes are faced with security robots, which is attributed to one last double cross by the ArmsDealer Slice killed when obtaining it.

* NinetiesAntiHero: Slice falls inside this category. He's AxeCrazy, [[BladeEnthusiast very fond of knives]], worked as a mercenary doing infiltration work and assassination work for the {{Mega Corp}}s prior to meeting his fellow Heroes in prison, and is something of a CombatPragmatist. A notable interaction early into the story has the Heroes break up a drug operation in New York and destroy the drugs, during which Slice suggests instead selling the drugs themselves. Despite this and his occasional clashes with Deacon, he remains a member of the team.

* NonProtagonistResolver: The two guys in charge of The Office are the BigBadDuumvirate of the first story, yet they wisely keep their hands as clean as possible, preferring to use middlemen to do their dirty work. After they turn the Heroes loose, they don't have any contact with them again, remaining TheUnfought until the end of the story, when the Mega Corps turn on them and promptly have them killed by way of a bomb hidden in a package that's supposed to contain their monthly cut of drug profits.

Even Trips and Patrice, while in for "lesser" crimes (grand theft auto and cybercrime respectively), still go along for the ride.
