43
44	A Muslim-American raised in New York state. She serves as the team's main sniper. [[AllThereInTheManual Before joining the SOG, she was briefly trained in Delta Force]].
45	-----
46	* AmbiguouslyBrown: Jaz uses her ethnicity to masquerade as an Arab Muslim during infiltration ops. She also has no problems pretending to be Latino.
47	* BrooklynRage: Born and raised in New York.
48	* ButNotTooForeign: Her exact ethnicity is never stated.
49	* ColdSniper: To her enemies before she kills them.
50	** FriendlySniper: To her team when they need help.
51	* FlatWhat: Her reaction to Alex Hoffman when he nonchalantly refers to Dalton [[SheIsNotMyGirlfriend as her boyfriend.]]
52	* MyGreatestFailure: Jaz tells Amir that her previous partner, Elijah Vallins, died during an op because he went to the wrong room. She didn't want the same thing to happen to Amir.
53	* {{Omniglot}}: She speaks Arabic, English, [[AllThereInTheManual French]] and some Russian & Farsi. Subverted on an op in Mexico where her not knowing Spanish almost blows the mission.
54	* RidiculouslyAverageGuy: She's used to infiltrate places where a woman is seen to be less suspicious than a man. This tactic is mainly used in Middle Eastern countries like Syria & Iran since women aren't taken very seriously in special operations.
55	* TheSquadette: The only female commando in the SOG team.

63
64	The SOG's medic. He serves as the backup sniper in case Jaz is in the field. [[AllThereInTheManual Used to be with Delta Force like Dalton]].
65	-----
66	* BadLiar: In episode 6 "The Seville Defection," he tells Paloma he's a Canadian and a medic. The next morning, the tattoo on his back obviously gives him away as American special forces. At least the medic part is true.
67	* CombatMedic: His job is to patch up injuries of his comrades or allies in the field, unless the injury's serious that the person needs to go to the hospital.
68	* ElitesAreMoreGlamorous: Spent some time with Delta Force before he worked with the DIA.
69	* FriendlySniper: To his team.

76	-> '''Played by''': Creator/HadiTabbal
77
78	The new recruit and ex-intelligence agent who infiltrated ISIL operations prior to recruitment to the SOG. Used to be a field officer with the CIA.
79	-----
80	* AmbiguouslyBrown: Amir uses his ethnicity to easily pose as a local in a variety of locales from the Middle East to Mexico.
81	* ButNotTooForeign: He's a Lebanese-American Muslim who grew up in Beirut.
82	* HeroOfAnotherStory: Before the show's events, he infiltrated ISIL in a covert operation and spent three years undercover under the watch of the CIA.
83	* ImpersonatingAnOfficer: During an op in Turkey, Amir masquerades as a US Army CID officer.
84	* TheInfiltration: He posed as an ISIS fighter years ago as a TheMole.
85	* MoleInCharge: During his time undercover with ISIS, he rose high enough in the organization that years later his name still carries a lot of weight. The leader of the Paris cell shows him great respect despite Amir showing up out of the blue and interfering in their operation.
86	* MyGreatestFailure: When he was 19, he blew off [[spoiler: his younger sister and told her to take the bus home rather than drive her like he was supposed to. The bomb that took out the bus was so powerful that there were no remains for the family to bury]], leading to Amir dedicating his life to taking down terrorist organizations.
87	-->''Yes. I'm the traitor. (Stabs Omar in the chest) [[BadassBoast I have devoted my life to bringing down men like you, and I'm not going to sleep until all of you are in the hell you deserve.]]''
88	* NewMeat: Is the newest member of the SOG.
89	* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: With a dose of DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything, Amir's infiltration op into the ranks of ISIS is similar to the BBC news headline that the Iraqi military revealed that they ran a black op on ISIS's forces in Iraq when some soldiers infiltrated the group and was able to get the names and affiliation of its fighters and leaders.
90	* {{Omniglot}}: Speaks Arabic, English and Farsi. He spoke French briefly in "Enhanced Protection." Subverted in episode 8, "Stealth" when he's the only team member who knows the Kazakh language, but he can barely string together a coherent sentence and him invoking the name of Allah in the language angers the Kazakh nomads the team is trying to calm down.
91	* [[RealMenLoveJesus Real Men Love Muhammad]]: He is a devout Muslim who makes sure to pray even when he is in the middle of a mission.
92	* RidiculouslyAverageGuy: He is the prime infiltrator of the group whenever they need a closer look at things on the ground. Looking harmless and BeneathNotice enables him to fade into the background as easily as a potted plant.
93	* SecretlyWealthy: He kept his family's wealth a secret from his team until he accidentally let it slip that his family had a cook when he was growing up, leading Dalton to use his embarrassment to surmise that the Al-Raisinis actually had an entire household staff.
94	* SupremeChef: He's the best cook in the team and fusses over his ingredients in contrast to how his teammates throw food that is vaguely edible onto the table.

106	-----
107	* AgentsDating: She used to be Alexander Hoffman's handler when he was carrying out missions for the U.S. It didn't take long for them to start sleeping with each other as well.
108	* DaChief: In charge of the DIA's daily operations.
109	* OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: Interrogated a Somali pirate by herself with ice cubes by her side in Africa. A few days later, she was able to extract critical information.
110	* OutlivingOnesOffspring: She lost her son in Afghanistan while participating in a humanitarian operation to build a girl's school. [[EvilCannotComprehendGood The American Taliban member can't seem to get why he would do such a thing since he was a Marine]].

120	-----
121	* ActionGirl: A former field agent.
122	* ADayInTheLimelight: "Grounded" has her be the SOG team's primary point of contact, as she is Colombian, speaks the language, and knows the country well.
123	* CunningLinguist: Is fluent in English and Spanish.
124	* DarkAndTroubledPast: She was a field agent before being captured by a drug cartel and nearly tortured to death. She has a large scar on her neck and Campbell is seen reviewing photos that show it's just one of the dozens that cover her body.
125	* DontYouDarePityMe: Snaps at Noah when he implies the case in "The Greater Good" is too personal for her.
126	* DudeMagnet: Downplayed, but she seems to have attracted the attention of both [=McG=] and Amir. And possibly Noah as well.
127	* VoiceWithAnInternetConnection: Hannah makes contact with DIA groups in the field. "Grounded" reveals it's the first time she's ever met any of them in person..

137	-----
138	* BadassBookWorm: Used to be a career CIA agent before he was recruited to work for the DIA and is revealed to have been the top of his class during training at the Farm.
139	** InformedAbility: Yet in spite of the above, he is easily fooled and held at gunpoint by the cute {{Hackette}} who turns out to be a Russian mole in "The Seville Defection."
140	* MustHaveCaffeine: Enjoys a drink of coffee in the morning before he starts work.
141	* NonActionGuy: He loves the fact that being an analyst means he can enjoy coffee and snacks while working.
142	* YouAreInCommandNow: Temporarily in "Break Out" when Patricia is trapped in Helmand Prison and in "Grounded" while Patricia was being suspended.
