Nikita

Position: Level 2 Field Op

Codename: Josephine

Trainer: Michael

Nikita was recruited into Section from prison. She was falsely accused of killing a cop in cold blood. Later, Nikita learns that she was framed on purpose so that Operations could recruit her into Section. Nikita is a rare bread, she has the ability to kill but is compassionate and still had her soul. Nikita's relationship with Michael is not approved of, but after many tries to separate them, the relationship continues, and is well know in Section. Sometime during S2, Nikita is recruited by Mr. Jones into Center to evaluate Section and the operatives. At the end of S3, Nikita is subjected to the Gellman Process. With Adrian's help, Nikita is restored to her normal self. At the end of S4, Nikita is in charge of everyone's future, canceling Madeline, and Michael, keeping Operations in Section, and sending Walter to the Farm.

Madeline Frayn Sand:
Position: Level 9, Chief Strategist, 2nd in command

Birth date the 7th (month/year unknown)

Madeline's recruitment is not known, but it is known that she was recruited from prison. However, Madeline is as ruthless as they come. When she was a little girl, she pushed her sister Sarah down the stairs, killing her in order to get a doll. Madeline was married to Charles Sand, another op who went under cover for 9 years. When he resurfaces, Madeline shoots him. She had a relationship with Operations, in which he used her. She claims that on the outside it would be considered sexual harassment. In S4, Madeline kills herself using a cyanide tablet, after Nikita decides she would cancel her.

Operations (Paul Wolfe):

Position: Head of Section 1, next in line as Chairman of Oversight

Paul was recruited 20 years ago from a Vietnamese POW camp, he was a Lieutenant in the US marine Corp. He was married to Corinne Wolfe Martelli and had one son, Stephen Wolfe. Operations once had a relationship with Madeline, but was only a false relationship to get to George. He was about to take over George's Position in S4, but Nikita ordered him to stay in Section for another 7 years. Operations is a ruthless leader, who at times, appears to be doing either more bad than good, or things for his benefit, rather than for Section's benefit.

Seymour Birkoff:
Position: Level 4 Comm Op

Until recently, Birkoff's recruit was unknown, even to him. He told different people different people different stories. In S4 he learns that his mother Lisa, was a Section Op who became pregnant, having twins. At that point, Section decided to keep one twin inside Section and let the other one free as part of an experiment to compare their different lives. Walter was the one who decided which twin stayed and which twin left...by flip of a coin. Birkoff is dependable, well liked, cynical and sheltered. Aside from the mission van, Birkoff rarely goes on the outside. He has only acted as a field op once, infiltrating a terrorist group ( Birkoff believed it was Operations way of canceling him), and covered Michael's Position once as a courier on a mission. Birkoff's duties include Intel verification, system security, mission analysis, tactical liaison along with others. In S4, Birkoff is given 3 months downtime (it was assumed he would go to see his brother) and builds an Artificial Intelligent (AI) to take over for him. The AI then acts as Birkoff's ID (his unrestricted conscience), doing everything that it felt was is Birkoff's best interest, including activating the self destruct. The AI is connected neutrally to Birkoff, so Birkoff is forced to kill himself in order to stop the self destruct and save everyone's life.
