== Overview ==
Angus "Mac" MacGyver is an agent who operates for the Department of External Security (DXS), an American black ops agency. The main storyline of season one begins during an op to secure a WMD, when he's forced to relinquish said WMD to save Nikki Carpenter's life. After she was killed in the field, Mac is forced to reevaluate himself and recruit someone else. After they realize that Nikki is a mole, DXS stops her, but not before Patricia ordered the DXS to be shut down due to being compromised by Nikki. From there on, Mac and the others continue to work in the Phoenix Foundation, protecting the U.S from domestic and foreign enemies.
== Personality ==
MacGyver is an introvert, normally keeping his composure to stay focused on the mission at hand. This enables him to work well under pressure and in Jack's own words, Mac's ability to adapt is not some gimmick he does, it's his survival mechanism, having lived through a lot of heartbreak in his life. He thinks logically and strategically when on missions, making him the brains between him and Jack.
While lying is part of the job, Mac dislikes the fact that he has to lie to his friends, especially Bozer, whom he has known since childhood and share a brotherly bond. When Bozer discovered Mac's real occupation after a deadly encounter with Murdoc, their relationship became strained, but when Thorton threatened to lock up Bozer because he was a security risk, MacGyver threatened her with him quitting rather than have his best friend put away for life.
Mac is a pacifist by nature and prefers to take down his opponents non-lethally if possible. Due to this trait, he does not use guns in the field, preferring to rely on his mind and environment to get him out of a jam. He doesn’t hesitate to kill in order to defend his team-mates, innocents or himself as a last resort as evidenced by his taking out a mercenary on a train by blasting him out of a door with a torpedo while the train was going at break-neck speed but it is nonetheless a rare occurrence.
== Skills ==
MacGyver is shown to possess a genius-level intellect, proficiency in multiple languages, superb engineering skills, excellent knowledge of applied physics, military training in bomb disposal techniques, and a preference for non-lethal resolutions to conflicts.
