Characters
Max GuevaraBarcode number: 332960073452Max is a genetically enhanced transgenic super-soldier who escaped from the X5 program of Project Manticore, where she was known as X5-452. Working as a courier for Jam Pony Express, Max searches for others of her own kind while trying to blend in with the rest of society. She can be identified by barcode on the back of her neck. Eventually Max teams up with Eyes Only.
Logan CaleLogan is the man behind Eyes Only, an organization crusading to bring down the corrupt power brokers of the new millennium. Heir to a family fortune, Logan hacks into television cable networks and delivers his scathing video messages. He uses his resources to find out Max's identity, and the two develop a deep and complex relationship.
AlecBarcode number: 331845739494Alec is introduced as Max's breeding partner at Manticore, a role vehemently denied by Max herself. When Manticore is destroyed, Alec escapes to the outside world. A genetically enhanced male (or transgenic) super-soldier (designation X5-494), Alec is a rogue in the mold of Han Solo or Gambit. He is the identical twin of Ben, a psychotic Manticore escapee whom Max fought and was eventually forced into killing by breaking his neck after he began killing priests in Season One. Alec boxes in the ring as "Monty Cora", and when he quits and joins Jam Pony Express, his status as a boxer earns him first admiration and then a "special place" in the somewhat strange mind of Normal. At first a selfish scatterbrain, he eventually becomes a valuable ally.
Original CindyOriginal Cindy is Max's co-worker and drinking buddy. In the middle of Season One, she discovers that Max is from Manticore and, at the start of Season Two, that Logan is Eyes Only. She usually refers to herself in the third person and is a lesbian.
NormalNormal's real name is Reagan Ronald. He runs the Jam Pony Express courier service and is nicknamed Normal because his conservative demeanor clashes with his somewhat anarchic surroundings. He is a hard taskmaster, often annoyingly saying "bip, bip, bip," to mean "hurry!" He is also bigoted against transgenic, but comes around after skilfilly helping one deliver her baby.
SketchySketchy is one of Max's good friends and is a fellow messenger at Jam Pony. His love for alcohol and women often land him in trouble... trouble which Max often has to help him get out of. In the second season, Sketchy becomes obsessed with tracking down trangenics, not knowing that two of his closest friends are one.
ZackBarcode number: 330417291599Known to Manticore as X5-599, Zack is the X5 transgenic who orchestrated and lead Max and the others' escape. He is very protective of his fellow escapees and is somewhat mistrustful of regular humans. In the episode "... And Jesus Brought A Casserole" he gives his life to save Max.
Donald LydeckerColonel Donald Lydecker is one of Manticore's senior officers and the arch-enemy of Max and Zack. He remains attached to the X5 program and tries to recapture the super-soldiers, whom he refers to as "my kids". Eventually he switches sides after the project's director betrays him.
JoshuaAn early Manticore experiment, Joshua was engineered with canine DNA and consequently has some unusual facial features, as well as exceptional strength even by trangenic standards. As the very first successful Manticore creation, he has no barcode. He has a deep friendship with Max, often copying some of the things she says, since he is somewhat slow-witted. Because of his beastly appearance, Max, Alec and Original Cindy must find creative ways to hide him from public view. He had a brief romance with a blind woman named Annie Fisher, before she was murdered by Agent White to frame the transgenics. His enormous strength helped turn the tide in the climactic battle with the breeding cultists.
TingaBarcode number: 331450074656Tinga, also known as X5-656, is an X5 transgenic who escaped with Max and the others. She assimilated into normal human society, married Charlie Smith, had a child named Case, and worked in a bakery. In "The Kids Are A'ight", she escapes to Canada with Zack, returns for her family in "Hit A Sista Back", and is then captured by Manticore in exchange for her son's return.
Ames WhiteThis character could be said to replace Lydecker as Max's primary nemesis. A Manticore agent charged with tracking down and exterminating Manticore escapees in order to conceal the organization's existence, White is also part of an ancient cult (known only as the "Conclave") that have infiltrated various levels of society and, over thousands of years, bred super-humans that are more forbidable fighters than most of the genetically modified Manticore projects.
