[edit] Character Summary
[edit] Main Characters
- Delilah Devonshire has a very determined personality and is eager for truth. In fact, Delilah’s greatest quality is her commitment to truth. It’s also what gets her into trouble. She takes things seriously but she can break down easily in certain situations. Her spy parents went missing when she was only five and are presumed dead. Delilah refuses to believe this, however, and she is determined to find out anything she can about them and to prove the rumors wrong that her parents were double agents. Delilah's relationship with Julius is very important to her and she's very touchy and gets jealous when Julius flirts with other girls(especially Ice.). She appreciates having a capable partner in Julius, and together they will stop at nothing to keep the villains from carrying out their evil plots on mankind. She believes in breaking her opponent down from the inside out. She gets inside the villain’s head and she loves a new challenge. Delilah is strong-willed, inventive, resourceful, quick thinking and graceful. She enjoys fencing, etiquette and explosives, and always has time to learn something new that may be useful on a mission.
- Julius Chevalier is often flippant but is very determined and has a passion for crime fighting. Where Delilah is more goal-oriented, Julius is more spontaneous. He deals with situations as they happen and still manages to find the time to have fun. He enjoys surfing, poetry, safe cracking and yoga. His parents were killed in action when he was only four, and Julius would love to avenge their death. For now, he is comforted by the fact that they were considered two of the greatest spies of all time. Julius is a laid back guy and a little cocky. This confidence allows him to act on the fly. He has a dash of James Bond in that he is not easily ruffled, thinks fast, and makes it all look easy. He has a good sense of humour and is very intuitive when it comes to the needs of his partner, Delilah. Beneath a nonchalant, arrogant exterior lies a sensitive and caring guy – especially towards Delilah. He is calm and resourceful under pressure, but tends to be a bit careless when the pressure is off. He often tries to impress Delilah, and becomes extremely jealous and petty when she shows interest in other boys.
- As a team, Julius and Delilah are both gifted musicians, masters of disguise, martial arts experts and fluent in 20 languages. Still, they are both consummate professionals always seeking to improve their game. They seem to like each other, too.
[edit] The Academy Crew
- Al - The director of the Academy, he is always highly informed and gives Delilah and Julius their mission assignments. Al's not only their primary contact, guide and teacher, but he's also a parental figure for Delilah and Julius. A free spirited individual, Al talks like a mid-70's Californian surfer/hippie. He is passionate for food and culture and has a unique sense of humour, but can also be serious, especially when it comes to keeping his students safe.
- Scarlett The Academy's gadget guru. Like Al, Scarlett is prone to using anachronistic 70's expressions as well as cares a lot about her students. She's extremely inventive and always coming up with new spy technology that keep Delilah and Julius on top of their missions
- Nosey - A frequent partner of Delilah and Julius, he is a well-meaning, good-hearted goof with a reputation for being a stink magnet. It’s not that he’s naturally stinky, he is just inevitably drawn into very smelly situations on his missions.
- Ursula and Emmet - Another one of Al’s arranged spy teams, they are the rivals of Delilah and Julius who are jealous of their popularity and success.
