Captain of the Logos, Niobe is Morpheus' ex-girlfriend who now is dating Commander Locke.

She is an [[Ace Pilot]], driving the Hammer hovercraft to Zion whilst under attack from an army of Sentinels.

 

=== Link ===

'''Played By:''' Harold Perrineau }}

The new operator on the Nebuchadnezzer after {{spoiler|Tank's off-screen death}}, Link is Tank and Dozer's brother-in-law, married to their sister Zee. He provides comic relief for the films, often being bamboozled by Neo's powers.

 

=== The Merovingian ===

'''Played By:''' Lambert Wilson }}

A powerful Frenchman Exile. Considering himself a businessman, the Merovingian believes in "cause and effect", is very manipulative and enjoys the finer things in life.

=== The Architect ===

'''Played By:''' Helmut Bakaitis }}

The program that created and acts as maintainer of the Matrix. Aside from that, it is never clearly explained who or what he really is, or if he and the giant machine in that Neo makes a deal with at the end of ''Revolutions'' are one and the same.

 

=== Seraph ===

 

The Oracle's bodyguard, appearing as a soft-spoken Asian man with kung fu powers. He once worked for the Merovingian, and had a few run-ins with Smith back when the latter was still part of the system.
