- Hacker Cave: Has a particularly impressive one in season 1, until it's breached and shot up in a gunfight.
- Paper-Thin Disguise: Adopts one to infiltrate the NYPD station, consisting of a different hairstyle, an Australian accent, and the name "Jules." It works.
Andrew "Andy" Wilson

- Amoral Attorney: Left behind his career at a high-power firm to avoid becoming one. Though he's still willing to play the part from time to time.
