** Instead of CrazyIsCool, she appears to be genuinely mentally ill and this clearly impacts her descision making skills. Her bloodthirst manifests as tantrums that lead to her killing or torturing VIPs which then creates further problems.

* NomDeGurre: As a pilot in the Empire's Fury, the Agent is given the callsign "Nightshrike".

* GenreSavvy: Keeper knows better than to antagonize Sith, he's also well aware that just groveling at their feet won't help matters either. So whenever he speaks to a Sith Lord he maintains a very respectful but firm tone so they know he's both loyal and strong, not some beat dog they can kick around.

* BadBoss: Jadus kind of straddles the line between this and BenevolentBoss. On one hand, he will shock you with Force lightning if you refuse to kneel before him. On the other, as long as you do what he says he is perfectly willing to manipulate Imperial Intelligence, the Sith and the Empire in general for your benefit. In fact, he's the only person the Agent works for who doesn't double-cross them in some way, aside from his actions in Act 1; Imperial Intelligence, the Dark Council, and the Republic all [[MindManipulation backstab the Agent]] throughout the course of the storyline while Jadus respected them and gave them a rank and title to ensure others do as well if you side with him.

* OneLastJob: In the Agent's personal mission in Shadow of Revan, he comes out of retirement and recruits you to settle some old business: namely, [[spoiler:rescuing Watcher Two.]]

* TheSpock

* {{Transhuman}}: Or trans-alien if you are playing another species. By the end of the story, the Agent has advantages no other spy in the Galaxy likely has due to the [[spoiler: implants made by Watcher X and the overriding of the brainwashing]]. Allowing him/her to perform feats such as [[spoiler: masking his/her life signs enough to pass as a droid and being completely immune to mind-altering effects]].

* TurnedAgainstTheirMasters: [[spoiler:She turned against her creators, but considering they conducted experiments on other races, played wars just like it was some sort of a game - and the one thing they managed to do before their end was to wipe out all their creations' knowledge of them and their origins - they deserved every [[KickTheSonOfABitch part]] of [[AssholeVictim it]].]]

!!'''The Imperial Agent (Cipher Nine)'''

* {{Expy}}: Downplayed; unlike the other 7 classes, the Agent is unique in that their entire personality and abilities are written from scratch and not based on any other pre-existing character from the Star Wars canon. Though it can be argued they borrow aspects of Tarkin (given their Imperial leadership status), Leia (they disguise themselves in order to deal with a Hutt and attempt to engage in subterfuge at times like the Agent does), Garindan (the fact that they're an imperial spy to begin) ''and'' Aurra Sing (they're an assassin with a sniper, something the agent can be) with the Agent is still entirely their own thing.

* CoolShip: The Agent's X-70 Phantom is what James Bond's Aston-Martin would look like if Q turned it into a spaceship.

* {{Expy}}: Averted; unlike the other 7 classes, the Agent is unique in that their entire personality and abilities are written from scratch and not based on any other pre-existing character from the Star Wars canon. Though it can be argued they borrow traits of Tarkin (given their Imperial leadership status) ''and'' Leia (they disguise themselves in order to deal with a Hutt and attempt to engage in subterfuge at times like the Agent does), the Agent is still entirely their own thing.

* AntiVillain: Type I. He's not a particularly nice man by any means, but he cares for his agents as individuals, and his disapproval of Light Side agents comes from the fact that he thinks they're [[WideEyedIdealist naive and going to be broken]]. [[spoiler:Just before the finale he expresses regret for the things he's done in service to the Sith, and states he never lost sight of his goal to make the Empire a better place all the while acknowledging that he's ultimately failed.]]

* EvenEvilHasStandards: Even she finds Jadus disgusting and monstrous.

* {{Expy}}: Of [[VideoGame/MassEffect2 Jack]], more or less.

* KickTheSonOfABitch: [[spoiler:She, along with the GEMINI droids, the Eternal Fleet, and the Machine Gods turned against their creators, though [[AbusivePrecursors they]] deserved [[AssholeVictim it]].]]

* VillainHasAPoint: His insistence that the Empire cares nothing for the soldiers who support her is shown to have merit when [[spoiler:the Agent's reward for stopping Jadus (or even serving him for that matter) is to be brainwashed. This is PlayedWith, however, since the brainwashing was pretty much entirely the Dark Council's doing, with Jadus (if you served him) actually being incredibly helpful and allowing you to use his authority in order to investigate the truth of your brainwashing and free yourself. Keeper, for that matter, did go along with the Dark Council's orders, but fully understands Cipher Nine's resentment and can more than make up for what he did if you bring him the Black Codex.]]
