open/close all folders
Tropes they all share
- You Are Number 6: None of them have revealed their real names. Their alias/code names are word plays of their rank within the group according to how dangerous they are.
- Asskicking Leads to Leadership: Averted. They are ranked by who is the most dangerous, not who is the best fighter. Six can actually beat Dos, Trey, IV, and Five, even faring very well against all four at once. But he has more of a conscience than they do and so does not qualify as more dangerous.
- Badass Normal: They may not be E.V.O.s but they are skilled enough to fight one such as Rex. Being the most dangerous person on the planet will make you this.
- Color-Coded for Your Convenience: One is red (though that may only be the color of his EVO form), Dos is yellow/gold, Trey is blue, IV is brown and white, Five is pink, and Six is green.
- Dysfunction Junction: 2-6 do not get along well, it's implied the trouble with One has left them strained.
- Five is constantly annoyed by Trey, who seems to be happy to sometimes mess with her intentionally in return.
- IV is bitter towards everyone else.
- Six is treated as almost a traitor for leaving, and in return seems to hold some disdain for the others.
- Improbable Weapon User: All of them except for Trey who doesn't use any weapons at all.
- Especially IV who, for some reason, is able to control the bandages that he's wrapped in.
- Noodle Incident: Several are mentioned, all apparently missions where someone messed up or didn't contribute like they were expected to.
One
- Ascended to a Higher Plane of Existence: Implied after he had willingly died and the once-barren land of the volcanic island began to bloom with vegetation.Six: He is still One. He is just one with everything.
- Cool Old Guy: He was the most dangerous man in the world before he turned into an E.V.O. and is inferred to be the oldest of the Six.
- Determinator: Holds off from going full E.V.O. for five years on sheer willpower alone.
- Parental Substitute: For Six.
- So Proud of You: To Six.
Dos
- Cane Fu: When he's not using the sword inside.
- Cool Old Guy: He's the oldest of the five we see, and the Second most dangerous man on the planet. Or the most dangerous, after One's death.
- Eyes Always Shut: His eyes appear to be constantly shut.
- Instant Sedation: His cane has Knockout Gas, which he uses on Rex to bring him to cure One.
- Noodle Incident: He and Five had some kind of falling out in a previous mission, judging by his refusal to help her when she slips on the way up to One's house.Dos: Like you lent me a hand in Buenos Aires?
- Spexico: Averted. Rex asks him if he's Mexican. He replies with "España!"
- Sword Cane: His primary weapon.
Trey
- Badass Normal: He's not an E.V.O., but he can still give Rex a good fight.
- Bare-Fisted Monk: The only one to fight without a weapon.
- Dumb Muscle: Seems to rely on brute strength and isn't the brightest bulb of the bunch.
- Ragin' Cajun: He's got a thick Cajun accent and a love for a good row.
IV
- Bandage Mummy: Certainly has the appearance of one.
- Deadpan Snarker: just a few moments.
- Empowered Badass Normal: Not an E.V.O., but can still manipulate his bandages at will.
- Noodle Incident: The Malaysian job. He lost a pinky finger, apparently.
- Token Minority: The only black guy in the top 6.
Five
- Affably Evil: While she is a neutral she's come into conflict with the protagonists several times, but is always pleasant about it. She seems to be the only one of the Six to actually keep in contact with Six, getting him information and encouraging his relationship with Holiday.
- Badass Normal: She's a normal human, but is still considered the fifth most dangerous woman in the world.
- Instrument of Murder: She fights with a guitar.
- Color-Coded for Your Convenience: pink hair, pink cloth, and a pink guitar.
- Noodle Incident: She and Dos had some kind of falling out on a previous mission, judging by his refusal to help her when she slips on the way up to One's house.Dos: Like you lent me a hand in Buenos Aires?
- Oop North: Speaks with a distinct British accent that wouldn't be out of place in London.
- Shipper on Deck: For Six and Holiday.
- The Smurfette Principle: The only female member of The Six.
- Stealth Hi/Bye: Remarkably good at it, given the pink hair and garish punk-rock outfit.
- Third-Person Person: She speaks in third person.
