Promotional Material Characters
Daryl
Daryl
The protagonist of the Agent Origins: Ashes short film. A firefighter for the FDNY and an agent for the Division.
- Cruel Mercy: You know that Cleaner he rushed to escape? When he cracked his mask open he didn't kill him. He just left him for his buddies to take care of.
- Duct Tape for Everything: Has a roll of duct tape hanging from his bag.
- Emergency Services: He's a firefighter.
- Good Is Not Nice: Well, when you infect the guy trying to kill you with the virus and then leave him in the corner to be roasted by his fellow Cleaners...
- Irony: Is a firefighter that needs a fire to set off a sprinkler so he and his neighbors can get water from it.
- Also, when he infects a Cleaner who then needed to be "cleaned."
- The Quiet One: Between Ashes and Escape, Daryl speaks the least. In Ashes alone he only has four lines, and each one is just a brief sentence.
Mia
Mia
The protagonist of the Agent Origins: Conspiracies short film. An agent for the Division.
- Action Girl: Takes on a gun wielding Rioter with a pizza dish(!), martial arts, and her own concealed firearm, and wins.
- In the Escape episode, not only does she lead the charge forward, she's also the one who calmly headshots Swizz, who was holding a hostage while John distracts him. Through the tent wall (with a little help from her Pulse skill) no less.
- Deadpan Snarker: Her featured episode has the majority of her lines as this.
- Right from the get go, while Saj is throwing out theories on who could be a government sleeper agent,
Saj: "It could even be Mia!"Mia: *In a tone dripping with sarcasm, boredom, and annoyance* "Even."- "Hey, Saj? You know we love having you over here. And I know it's, like, the apocalypse out there and everything, but...how long were you planning on staying?"
- Her response to the team checking in when they've all been activated, having just shot an attacking Rioter and saving Saj, her boyfriend, and herself then receive her Division Activation alert? "Yea, was hoping to get the call a little sooner."
- Decoy Protagonist: Not her, but her boyfriend. Conspiracies first jokingly implies that he is the Agent. Then the Rioter shows up.
- Designated Point Man: Provides this role for her team in "Escape", and makes use of the "Pulse" skill. She also leads the charge forward against the Rikers.
- Improbable Weapon: She throws a pizza dish (and the pizza she just finished cooking) at a Rioter before handing him his ass.
- Made of Iron: She grabs the Rioter's gun by the slide just as he fires to deflect the gun away from her and prevent it from properly cycling the next round, injuring her hand. She doesn't even flinch. She doesn't even get it it bandaged up until meeting up with Everett and the others at the rally point in Escape.
- Only Sane Woman: While Saj and her boyfriend are busy screwing around with conspiracy theories and airsoft replicas, she's just waiting for the Division to finally activate her. That and when she gets ready to leave, she asks for her bag. Her speechless boyfriend hands over her purse, causing her to give a exasperated reply of "The other bag", before the just as speechless Saj looks over and gives her the backpack with the lit up Division tech device.
Everett
Everett
The protagonist of the Agent Origins: Pursuit short film. A paramedic and an agent for the Division.
- Combat Medic: Seems to fill this role for his team when he bandages up Mia's hand in Escape and then gets to killing Rikers with the rest of the team in the same film.
- Establishing Character Moment: He gives his policeman friend morphine for his dying wife and then stops said friend from shooting the kid who took his bag of medicine, preferring to chase her around the city.
- Friendly Sniper: In addition to being the team's medic, Everett also seems to also be their designated marksman too, as shown in Escape.
- In the Hood: Everett wears a hoodie to cover his head due to the snowy weather.
- Non-Action Guy: Of the four Agent Origins short films, his doesn't involve killing or even fighting anyone. This of course changes in Escape.
- The Medic: Pursuit implies that Everett is a paramedic or an EMT in his civilian life.
John
John
The protagonist of the Agent Origins: Escape short film. A family man and an agent for the Division.
- Deep Cover Agent: His wife didn't even know that John owned a gun, let alone know anything about his secret life.
- Imagine Spot: For a brief moment he imagines going back to his home to see his wife and daughter missing. Daryl soon snaps him out of it.Daryl: "Hey! You're gonna see them again."
- Mr. Exposition: Of the four short films, his is the only one where we get any explanation of what the Division is.
- Refusal of the Call: Played with. He does answer the call, but when he is finally activated he looks to his daughter, and the look on his face tells it all that he really did not want to leave her and his wife alone in the middle of the crisis.
- Super Cop: Likely. Based on the handcuffs and baton hanging from his bag (and that both Daryl and Everett similarly have things from their own civilian lives in theirs) one could reason that John is with the NYPD.
- Which would be odd that a cop's wife would be shocked that her husband had a gun.
- It could be possible that he's part of the NYPD's Auxilary Police program, which doesn't allow the volunteer officers to carry guns.
- Which would be odd that a cop's wife would be shocked that her husband had a gun.
- The Leader: Leads the team of agents consisting of himself, Mia, Daryl and Everett as they take on a gang of Rikers.
