Michael's History

Michael Bishop is a former New Division agent. After successfully overthrowing The Group, he is pardoned from wrong doing, and finally retired from government operation.

Prior to this, Michael was the head agent for the first iteration of Division, but went rogue upon learning of Director Percival Rose's under-the-table operations and secrets. He goes on to assist Nikita Mears in tracking down Percy's black boxes, and to take down Division from the outside. Later, he is recruited by Ryan Fletcher to track down the Dirty Thirty from within New Division.

Michael is former Naval Intelligence, stationed in the Persian Gulf in 2001. Kasim Tariq killed his wife Elizabeth and daughter Haley in a car bomb. Michael is critically injured in the bombing and recovered in a hospital bed. As Michael attempts to overdose on morphine, Percy shows up to recruit him and they meet for the first time.

Percy offers Michael the chance to join Division and make a difference. With nothing to lose, Michael accepts. He joins Division hoping that they will assist him in locating Tariq soon, so he could get his revenge.

Michael is an overprotective kind of person, especially to the people he loves, like Nikita. Although at one point realizing that Percy is not the man of honor he pretends to be, he stays there in order to protect recruits as best as he can. He will do anything to protect the recruits and make sure that they are safe from any harm. Michael is also fond of kids. Family is very important to him, in fact, it is everything.

He seldom smiles, the only time he smiles is when Nikita makes him laugh and when he enjoys the company of his friends. Michael is also very romantic and traditional.
