0Coupé, real name Janelle and commonly referred to as Coop, is a character in Dispatch.
She is a former assassin and was a villain until she joined the Phoenix Program as one of the heroes that can be dispatched. As a part of the program, Coupé works for the SDN under Robert Robertson. Coupé is an merciless assassin through and through. She takes all jobs professionally, even if they seem menial to her, such as retrieving a child's balloon. She takes pride in her abilities, describing herself as "swift as the night, sharp as my knife." She also has no qualms about murdering others "as they see fit," despite that being a HR violation. Although her ambitions may be dubious as she claims she works with the SDN since they pay her on time, as opposed as a chance to better herself, after being kept over Sonar, she seemingly commits herself to her job on a more personal level.
Despite this cool-headed and cold personality, she also gets angry. If cut from the team, she takes the termination to heart and attacks Robert before leaving, and this personal vendetta carries on as a member of Shroud's entourage when she attacks the Z-Team, often requesting Sonar and Blonde Blazer, and fuming about her termination when fighting Mecha Man and Blonde Blazer.
However, she has other less-threatening sides to her. When off duty, she exhibits a more laid-back, albeit still poignant, manner of talking, although that goes out the window when she reaches her threshold of alcohol. When present to Robert's housewarming party, she is able to let herself go and dance with other member. She can show other emotions such as a fear when stating she needs the job after Robert's speech after a very chaotic dispatch during episode 3, and concern when the Mecha Man mecha suit is on the verge of exploding. She understands humor, laughing at Robert's dry rebuttal to Flambae at Crypto, and she can call others names in a mocking tone, such as Blonde Blazer when rescuing an apprehended Robert.
