Michael Westen
Burned spy and all-around badass who loves his mom, sunglasses, yogurt, and things blowing up. 1. Abusive Dad: Michael's dad used to beat him, in part because Michael antagonized him to keep his attentions off little brother Nate. 1.1. Because of his tough childhood, Michael is fiercely protective of children (see Berserk Button below). 1.1.1. In one episode, the Baddie of the Week is an abusive father, and Michael adopts the persona of someone who would have the motivation and opportunity to...
Fiona Glenanne
Michael's once-and-future girlfriend, an ex-IRA terrorist who LOVES making things go boom. 1. Action Girl: Fiona is probably the most dangerous of the three, if only because she is so Trigger Happy. 1.1. Specifically, she's probably the least well-trained and deadly of the three in hand-to-hand combat and gunplay, but she's the most willing to use them. 1.2. So much of her is all talk though. She tends to deliver about three to four threats to baddies per episode but never actually goes throu...
Sam Axe
Former Navy SEAL, current womanizing lush, and Michael's most loyal friend. 1. Anti-Hero: Slides from Type II to Type IV, depending on the point in time. 2. Awesome McCoolname 3. Aw, Look -- They Really Do Love Each Other / Vitriolic Best Buds: With Fiona, though it takes a while. 4. Badass 5. Badass in a Nice Suit: Whenever Sam uses his "Chuck Finley" alias (usually as Mafia, CIA, or another suitably high-class occupation), he ditches the Hawaiian shirts and cleans up rather well. 6. Berserk...
Jason Bly
A CIC agent sent in ostensibly to investigate Michael, but really to convince him to sit down and shut up about wanting his job back. 1. Bruce Wayne Held Hostage: Alongside Michaelin "Bad Breaks". 2. Fire-Forged Friends: After the events of Bad Breaks, he actually helps Michael and they part amicably 3. Foreshadowing: When Michael tries to tell him he didn't really deserve to be burned, Bly momentarily loses his cool and tells Michael he should be in jail. Later we find out what the governmen...

The Handler 5. I Have Your Wife: Michael's first job for her involved assisting someone she was controlling this way. 6. Hoist By Her Own Petard 7. Manipulative Bastard 8....

Frank Weston
Though never appearing on screen, the patriarch of the Weston family nevertheless remains something of a central mythical figure in the series due to the incredible influence he has over the Weston family, even after he died of a heart attack prior to the series. This influence only grows as of season 5 with The Reveal that Anson used Frank to gain information on Michael and arranged for his heart attack. 1. Abusive Parent 2. Doom It Yourself: By all rights a terrible mechanic. Didn't fare mu...
