Five Hargreeves

Appareance: Body of a 18 years old, brown hair, green eyes, sharp jaw, slim but muscular build, 5’8.

Personality:

At age 13, Five became trapped in the apocalyptic future for more than 40 years. When he found a way back, his body regressed to that of his 18-year-old self while his mind stayed the same. As a result, he has the personality of a 60-year-old and is frustrated at being trapped in a child's body. He is shown to have a genius intellect, often dismissing others, including his family, as stupid or inferior and expressing disinterest in their personal affairs. He is also shown to be sarcastic, pragmatic, and incredibly prideful. He also exhibits impulsive behavior due to his prideful nature. This is seen when he brazenly uses his time-traveling powers as a boy despite Reginald Hargreeves' warnings that he was not fully prepared to wield them.

Five is also shown to be a ruthless and incredibly efficient killer. While he does not enjoy killing, he seems to have no qualms about the people he has killed. He is more than willing to eliminate anyone, even innocent people, whose deaths may stop the apocalypse from happening. He even displays nonchalance when making plans to murder them. He gained fame in his time as an agent of the Temps Commission for his success in killing countless individuals on missions, which he did as part of his contract to get back home to the present. Overall, Number Five has shown to be perfectly willing to eliminate anyone who stands in the way of his goals.

Despite his antisocial behavior, he does have compassion and cares deeply for his family. He works tirelessly, both in the past and future, to prevent the apocalypse and is seemingly the most devoted member of the family to stopping it. He even refuses to involve his family most of the time out of fear they will die. When he "renegotiates" his contract with the Temps Commission, he demands that his family be saved as well.

Additionally, as the series progresses, he becomes disillusioned with killing. When he agrees to assassinate the Commission's board of directors, he only does so, believing it's to save his siblings. Following this particular massacre, he swears off killing, and he does follow through with this promise, only fighting back when it's to defend himself or his family.

In the third season, he seeks a life of retirement and peace and expresses the desire not to intervene in any more time travel, refusing to mess up the lives of himself or his siblings any further. He is only forced back into work when the threat of yet another apocalypse emerges, and even then, he decides that the best option is to step back and accept his fate.

Powers

Space-Time Manipulation: Five has been shown to manipulate space and time, which allowed him to teleport through space and time, travel through time, and even manipulate time. Teleportation: Five has the ability to teleport both short and long distances, which he frequently used to evade Hazel, Cha-Cha and the Temps Commission. Despite being able to travel at will, multiple travels within a short time exhausted Five frequently, and the Handler noted that "even you [Five] have limited". In addition to teleporting himself, he is also able to take other people with him when he teleports. He is also able to teleport objects without physical contact. After regaining his powers, the color of Five’s power warped, turning it blue to purple. Time Travel: Five is able to travel through time. However, he had not yet mastered this ability, and the first time he used it, he accidentally traveled to the end of the world and was unsuccessful in traveling back. Despite being less adept at time travel, Five was a quick study and could travel through time and take his siblings with him on his first attempt. Five could reverse time by a couple of minutes, undoing events during that time so that only he remembers them and can alter events.

Abilities

Master Combatant: Five is a great combatant even as a child. After teleporting into the future, he learned advanced techniques from the Commission. He became a skilled assassin and fighter. Master Assassin: Five was the most deadly assassin in the Temps Commission, able to use his powers and kill multiple people in a matter of seconds, even after regressing his body to his teenage form. Genius-Level Intellect: Five is extremely intelligent and wise, mostly regarding his tactical and scientific skills. Expert Tactician: Five is a brilliant tactician capable of quickly formulating battle strategies and new plans if the situation changes, like elaborating different complex plans to defeat different enemies in difficult situations and be victorious. Expert Intimidator: Five knows how to be quite intimidating; because of his mental instability and aggressive way of acting, he manages to intimidate others even after he assumes his adolescent form.
