** Until Brother Death, where we meet brother Mkono, an assassin even bigger and stronger than Bork. And considering that Bork can bench press upwards of 700 pounds, that's really saying something.

* MultiethnicName: Pretty common in the series. For starters Emile Antoon Khadaji has French-derived first and middle names and an Arabic-sounding last name (it seems to be a corruption of "Khadijah", an Arabic feminine given name), suggesting he may be partly of Moroccan Arab descent.

* HumanKnot: Khadaji's WeaponOfChoice is spetsdöd darts loaded with Spasm, a drug that causes the skeletal (striated) muscles in the body to contract at once and stay that way for about six months. This tends to make the victim look like a contortionist. Oh, and it's non-lethal, so [[AndIMustScream they're alive the whole time]].

* FantasticFirearms: Spetsdöds are self-defense weapons that adhere to the back of the hand and fire chemical darts with compressed air, triggered by touching a sensor at the end of the barrel with a fingernail. In ''The Man Who Never Missed'', Emile Khadaji uses spetsdöd darts tipped with Spasm (a chemical that causes every skeletal muscle in the human body to contract simultaneously and get stuck that way for roughly six months) in a one-man guerrilla campaign against the Confederation on Graves. They later become standard weapons of the Matadors, an order of bodyguards founded by Pen in ''Matadora'' to protect political dissidents.
