As an OSIC agent, Haze has knowledge on many subjects, including [[The Deep]] and the [[Adversary]].<ref name=":6" /><ref name=":7" /> She has read the OSIC's files on the other heroes.<ref>{{ConvoCite|hero1=Haze|hero2=Holliday|number=1|hero_quote1=Haze|quote1=I've read your file, sheriff.

Haze has gotten used to entering people's nightmares, as most of them are similar. She finds scarier to see what they dream for.<ref>{{ConvoCite|hero1=Haze|hero2=Kelvin|number=1|hero_quote1=Haze|quote1=Nightmares are easy. There is enough commonality in what people are afraid of. Usually some flavour of death, loss or failure. But scary, are what people dream for.}}</ref>
