History Characters / HitmanSideCharacters

* AssholeVictim: If he's killed, it's hard to feel sorry for him, considering how unscrupulous he is throughout the mission.

* KarmaHoudini: If 47 doesn't kill him, he gets away with trying to secure powerful reactors by enlisting Ritter's services.

* VillainInAWhiteSuit: He's planing to enlist the services of Ritter while wearing his snazziest white suit.

* AccidentalMurder: Well, it's all part of the acting, but this can be made to happen, if 47 tricks him into electrocuting Knight.

[[folder:Moses Butusov]]
Jasper Knight's bodyguard
----
* OhCrap: As is standard for bodyguards in the series, he takes it poorly if 47 kills Knight, especially if he witnesses his client's body and is unable to locate the assailant.
[[/folder]]

* EarnYourHappyEnding: She's been undercover as Dalia's assistant doing investagative work, an extremely stressful and dangerous job. Dalia finds out and plots to kill her, with her only ally in an incredibly dangerous place being a CICADA guard with a crush on her. If Dalia is killed, the two of them flee the premises and confess their love for each other, free to live a life safe from Dalia's wrath.

[[folder:Nicolas Frank]]
The man running the auction.

* DeathFromAbove: If 47 wishes to prematurely end the auction, he can simply drop the chandilier on his head, depriving the palace of one talkative auctioneer.

[[folder:Santa Claus]]
It's Santa! He can teleport at whim if threatened by 47.
----
* MuggedForDisguise: While his outfit isn't that useful, it can be worn by 47 if he wishes. It becomes a permanant addition in 47's wardrobe if he completes all the challenges in the level, meaning poor old Santa doesn't have to keep being stripped to his underwear so 47 can look like him while assassinating targets.
[[/folder]]

* BrutalHonesty: He's quite blunt about his opinions, referring to his soon to be boss as a rich asshole and telling a man who he thinks is Oscar Layfayette that he didn't understand his book.

* ManChild: He's too lazy to do his job despite it being right next door to him and still collects Icon figurines.

* StrawmanPolitical: He mentions he's left wing, and is a lazy stoner who comes across as a bit moronic.
* TakeThatAudience: He's a parody on what a hitman fan would be like if they existed in the game universe.

* UndignifiedDeath: Being pushed off your balcony in your tighty whities is not a very dignified way to go.

* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: You can murder him just like any other NPC, though there's no reason to do so.

* CuttingOffTheBranches: He returns in three headed serpent as a drug trafficker.

A cyclist trying to extort a delievery truck driver by exaggurating the injuries he sustained during being hit.

[[folder:Nicola Scanarotti, Stefano Alberti]]
Silvio's bodyguards

* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: If 47 is not careful with some of his accident kills, they'll perish along with their boss.

[[folder:Olinto Trevisan, Roman Langella]]
Francesca's bodyguards

* OhCrap: They both take it really hard if Francesca is killed or if she goes missing, searching the whole map to find her in desperation.

!!!Sapienza Bonus Missions

[[folder:Sophia Wilde]]
Dino's manager.

* HiddenDisdainReveal: She secretly hates Dino Bosco for how difficult he is to work for. She obviously can't express these feelings due to her professionalism, causing her to suffer in silence.

[[folder:Francesca Palerma]]
A woman unsure of what her job is at the movie set.

* TemptingFate: Asking a perfectionist with a famous HairTriggerTemper for help and revealing your ignorance about your role in the movie is a terrible, terrible idea. She finds this out the hard way.

[[folder:Dr. Docciaborsa]]
A famous doctor at Marco's rally.

* OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: He implanted a brain into a monkey and is a successful brain surgeon on people. This is never shown due to him being a minor character.

[[folder:Monia Bellini]]
A struggling play writer at Marco's rally.

* StylisticSuck: Her plays are apparently terrible, as they are quickly cancelled after only a few performances. Naturally, Abiatti seems to love them.

[[folder:Prof. Antonio]]
A far left journalist who is at Abiatti's campaign.

* CoolShades: He has them on during his appearance.
* OnlySaneMan: While he may be a radical, he rightfully points out that Marco Abiatti's threat to beat the crap out of anti-corruption protestors is a violation of their freedom of speech. Naturally, Abiatti and his cronies dismiss this as "leftist BS."

[[folder:Michele Delle Marche, Cristina Dionisi, Felix Merkl]]
The band playing for Abiatti.

* BilingualBonus: Their songs are rather bleak and intense despite being upbeat in their performance. Since it's Italian, unless you speak the language or can have it translated, this will go unrecognised.
* SoundtrackDissonance: Songs with lyrics about death and obsession are terrible fits for upbeat and relaxing instrumentals.

[[folder:Marcello Folliero]]
A photographer who is hired to take photos of Abiatti.

* MuggedForDisguise: His outfit can be worn by 47, and it provides a bombastic and effective way to eliminate the CorruptPolitician.

[[folder:Roberto Mulo]]
Marco's corrupt assistant.

* HypercompetentSidekick: He's great at performing his duties, surveying the entire rally grounds to gather information on guests and make sure no bald assassins are stirring up any trouble in the area.
* StrawmanPolitical: He's as extreme politically as his boss.

[[folder:Biagio Coltelli, Baldassarre Arcuri]]
Servers at a baazar.

* MuggedForDisguise: Both their outfits can be worn, giving 47 an opportunity to poison hapless guests or the odd CorruptPolitician if his timing is right.

[[folder:Giovannitti]]
A man Marco wants to meet with.

* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: His meeting with Abiatti can be rescheduled, allowing 47 to lure Abiatti to a place where it's easy to silently kill him. This probably was not what Giovannitti wished to happen.

[[folder:Ghostly Fan]]
A LoonyFan obsessed with the Cassandra Snow novels.

* LoonyFan: He's obsessed with the novels, spending thousands just to attend the signings.
* MuggedForDisguise: His outfit can be worn to get close to Craig Black.

[[folder:Mike Vogt]]
A critic at the cafe.
----
* BrutalHonesty: He's rather blunt about how he feels about Black's novels and his prose.
* CausticCritic: Well to be fair, Black's books are hot garbage, and Vogt does not hold back his views on these "novels." This may be why he's not allowed at the book signing.

!!!'''Citizenship:''' Swedish

!!!'''Voiced By:''' Dave Hill

The Private Masseur stuck in the Swedish Consulate in Marrekesh.

* ICantHearYou: Konni is speaking with his contact; Donald, on his phone. Turning on the TV nearby causes him to be unable to hear anything, promptly ending the call.
* OhCrap: When talking to Donald, he is nothing but ''terrified'' of the whole situation he's managed to find himself in. Unfortunately, Donald doesn't seem to care much for his predicament and leaves him hanging once he's interrupted.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Has '''very''' blonde mop-top hair. Notably, this is one of the few disguises in the series where 47 does not try and replicate his hair (other characters are revealed to be wearing a wig). Civilians will simply assume he shaved his head if 47 disguises as him.

[[caption-width-right:350:[[TheFaceless Sayid's..err..."face"]]]]

A soldier working for General Zaydan and a former close friend of his, who turned against him after his brother was killed during Strandberg's rescue. He is currently being kept prisoner inside an empty room in the school.

* BagOfKidnapping: He has a grey bag over his head. It does not impede 47's vision in the slightest.
** Interestingly, the bag was initially absent in ''VideoGame/Hitman3'' on release, presumably so the mission could work with Playstation VR, but was re-added after fan complaints.
* CrueltyIsTheOnlyOption: Sayid cannot be freed from the school, because if his body is found, he's immediately marked as a non-target kill.
* MuggedForDisguise: 47 can take his place to kill Zaydan.
* RewardedAsATraitorDeserves: Zaydan intends on having him executed for his defection.
* TheStoolPigeon: He intended on whistleblowing Zaydan's plans after his brother was killed by his troops.
* SomethingCompletelyDifferent: He's currently the only NPC where his entire face is concealed from view, meaning his contracts mode image is literally just the above image, which looks plain odd next to the other civilians.
* TheFaceless: Downplayed. He has a bag over his head when you visit him when tied to a chair, but knock him out, and take his disguise, and [[UnseenNoMore you get to see what he looks like]].
* TreacheryIsASpecialKindOfEvil: Zaydan intends on having him killed for attempting to whistleblow. On the other hand, most of Zaydan's soldiers (who dislike him to begin with) are sympathetic to his situation

[[folder:Erik Olander]]
!!Erik Olander

[[folder:Tyler Clark]]
Pamela's assistant. He's helping with the interview.

* FlatCharacter: He's nowhere near as fleshed out as Pamela, mainly existing to give her someone to bounce off.
* HypercompetentSidekick: He does his job splendidly, unlike Jeff Baker. It's clear Pamela appeciates his dedication to his work.

[[folder:Jeff Baker]]
A con artist who impersonated a cameraman named Finley to scam GNN.

* MuggedForDisguise: 47 can dress up as him and help Pamela conduct the interview on Claus. This leads to a perfect opportunity to kill him.

[[folder:Alden Riauff Hansson]]
A man who has been living in the consulate for almost a decade.

* AttentionWhore: He's upset that Strandberg is getting more attention than him, lamenting about how nobody is talking about him and his actions.
* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: A rather blatant one of Julian Assange. They're both whistleblowers living in government asylum. They're also both known as being quite the AttentionWhore.

[[folder:Ellinor Westrup]]
A former spy who has found out about Reza's activities.

* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: She's found out about the extent of Zaydan's activities and understandably wishes to flee the country as soon as she can manage so she can focus on her legitimate career as a model.

[[folder:Zaki Diab]]
A fortune teller.

* ExcellentJudgeOfCharacter: In 'a house built on sand' he'll quickly recognise 47 for who he is and panic.
* MaybeMagicMaybeMundane: Some of his predictions are so eerie that it lends a bit of truth to the idea he may be an actual fortune teller. He's able to see through all of 47's disguises if 47 encounters him during 'a house built on sand,' something almost nobody in the series has been able to achieve without intimately knowing 47.

[[folder:Shuaib Ali]]
A protestor outside of the consulate.

* LargeHam: He frequently speaks in easy to repeat catchphrases and likes to shout to immerse the crowd in his speech. This is all pretty standard for a charismatic protestor, and it's causing quite a headache for Strangberg's guards who are trying to do damage control for him.

[[folder:Hektor Lindberg]]
An intern who is starting his job at working at the consulate.

* MuggedForDisguise: His outfit can be worn by 47 to get access to Strangberg.

[[folder:Nimr’ Arif Bahar]]
A landlord in Marakkech.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: His ceramics shop is no longer open by the time of 'a gilded cage' being replaced by a shoe shop that is being run by someone else. What exactly caused him to go out of business is never explained.

[[folder:Hilda Berg]]
The former head of security at the consulate

* OnlySaneMan: Well, only sane woman. She's one of the most vocal critics about their decision to host someone as nororious as Claus Strandberg. Since this action ends up causing 47 to break into the building, potentially causing irreparable harm to the consulate and it's workers, her concerns are entirely valid.

[[folder:Shahin Abdul-Barr Maalouf]]
The headmaster of the school. He's recently been evicted.

* StylisticSuck: His novel ideas are terrible, reading like awful Tom Clancy fanfiction.

[[folder:Terry Strong]]
An owner of a shoe shop.

* ButtMonkey: He's only had his shop for a small amount of time, and it's already been taken over by Zaydan and his goons.

[[folder:Ms. Persson]]
The receptionist at the consulate.

* OhCrap: She is not prepared for Strangberg's death, making an announcement to urge the employees not to disclose his death to the public just yet.

[[folder:Irshaad Ismail, Ashraf Raghib Mustafa, Khaleel Rani Nahas and Khuzaimah Afeef Saliba]]
The printing crew.
----
* FalseFlagOperation: What they've been sent to do. They're meant to pose of Civil dawn and cause civil unrest to add credence to Zaydan's propaganda that he's hitting back against terrorism.
* MuggedForDisguise: All of their outfits can be worn to infiltrate the school and assassinate Zaydan.

[[folder:Håkan Almer]]
A hapless worker at the consulate
----
* ButtMonkey: He doesn't seem to be having much success assembling the Ikea chair.
* TakeThat: He's struggling to put together a piece of Ikea furniture. It may very well be the most difficult thing to come from Sweden in the consulate.

[[folder:Guang Tseng]]
Kwang's bodyguard.

* OhCrap: As is standard for bodyguards, he does not take the death of his client well.

[[folder:Sebastian Krogh]]
A paranoid man talking to a fortune teller.

* SelfMadeOrphan: Implied, as he's planning to murder his mother for her inheritance.

!!!'''Voiced By:''' Matthew Gravelle

A New York indie drummer flown in by Monumental Records to replace The Class' previous drummer.

* CuttingOffTheBranches: Dialogue between Heidi and Sierra Knox in ''VideoGame/Hitman2'' confirms that 47 did disguise as De Silva to get close to Cross, as he apparently had no recollection of actually drumming for the band.
* IdenticalStranger: Not to Helmut Kruger's extent, but he bears enough of a resemblance to 47 (bar having a goatee and stubble) for him to be disguised as.
* MuggedForDisguise: His disguise can be taken to meet with Jordan Cross.

!!!'''Voiced By:''' Rochelle Greenwood

The manager of the Himmapan Hotel, where Jordan Cross is staying and thus an employee of Thomas Cross.

* BadBoss: There are memos from her all over the hotel, most of which contain threats to fire the entire hotel staff for trivial errors. One of her notes threatens the entire staff with termination because one waiter got a pair of room-service orders mixed up.
* NiceToTheWaiter: Inverted. She’s polite to Dexy Barat and Jordan Cross, but nasty to her underlings.
* NoSell: Being the manager of the hotel, Mookjai will see through any hotel staff disguise 47 has.

Morgan's bodyguard and confidant.

* AffablyEvil: He is quite chatty and pleasant to be around. Morgan's conversations with him helps provides exposition.
* AmbiguouslyEvil: He is the bodyguard to a murderer's lawyer, but whether he has any other skeletons in his closet is never explained.
* TheDitz: Confuses a Football team for Cricket team, and Ken is ''not'' happy about this.
* MuggedForDisguise: His disguise can be worn. It functions the same as the Hotel Security disguise, with the exception of Morgan seeing through it.
* YouALLLookFamiliar: Otis' model isn't unique and is shared by several bodyguards throughout the trilogy. The outfit he's wearing is also identical to the generic bodyguard outfit seen in Sapienza.

A late actress and the daughter of Highmoore Consulting [=CEO=] John Highmoore and Jordan Cross' late girlfriend, who died a year prior to the events of the mission. Her family hires the ICA to kill Jordan and Ken Morgan, believing that the former had murdered her.

* AccidentalMurder: [[spoiler:Her death was the result of Jordan losing his temper after Hannah mentions his father]].
* CarCushion: The briefing for the "Club 27" mission shows this is how Hannah died.
* ChekhovsGunman: Helmut Kruger indirectly mentions her death in "The Showshopper" when talking to Dalia, who wants him to infiltrate Highmoore Consulting.
* HardDrinkingPartyGirl: The media turned Hannah into one posthumously, suggesting that she was out of control during her death and made Jordan look sympathetic. Subverted when playing the audio tape, where it's revealed that [[spoiler:she was fully sober when Jordan pushed her to death]].
* PlotTriggeringDeath: The reason the contract against Jordan and Morgan happens.
* PosthumousCharacter: Her death happened a year prior to "Club 27", but avenging her death is the main reason her family issued the contract.
* RailingKill: [[spoiler:Jordan pushed her off his penthouse's balcony]].
* YourMom: [[spoiler:A snide comment about Thomas Cross resulted in Jordan snapping and killing her]].

[[folder:Wes Liston]]
The music recorder for Jordan Cross.

* FlatCharacter: Compared to Jordan, his band members, and the sound crew, Wes doesn't have the most defined personality.

[[folder:Jackie Carrington]]
Jackie is a 90's starlet as well as the person who put a hit on Kieran Hudson.

* KickTheSonOfABitch: Ordering a hit on someone is not a very nice thing to do, but the man she wants dead is a slimy douchebag who invades people's privacy like it's going out of style.

[[folder:Julian]]
A member of 'The Class' crew who is sleeping with Jackie.

* MrFanservice: He's quite attractive and is seen in only his underwear. This makes it easier to take his outfit.
* MuggedForDisguise: While he isn't wearing it, it belongs to him and is rather useful, meaning it's slim pickings for 47 if he wants it.

[[folder:Tharn Srisai]]
A chef working on Jordan's birthday cake.

* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: He probably didn't expect that the cake he was preparing would be used to kill Jordan.

[[folder:Benjamin Bertram]]
A stalker obsessed with Heidi Santoro.

* MuggedForDisguise: His outfit may be the most useless in the level, as it makes 47 hostile everywhere.

[[folder:Tarrin & Maelng]]
The bug exterminators working in the hotel.

* MuggedForDisguise: Their outfits can both be taken, and while they're not the most useful for travelling through the level, they'll provide some effective ways to eliminate Cross and Morgan in a silent and effective manner.

[[folder:Bob]]
Mrs. Mookjai's assistant.

* ButtMonkey: He takes a lot of undeserved flak from his boss, due to him being an easy target. As it's his job to put up with her outbursts, there's nothing he can do about it.

[[folder:Callum Burgess]]
A man meant to deliever Barat's message to the reception.

* TheStoner: He decided getting high was more important than actually doing his job. Fortunately, 47 can complete the job for him and let him work off the buzz by incapacitating or murdering him.

[[folder:Kittinan Janpong, Hans Graub and Ratsami Panichwit]]
The elite members of the hotel security.

* EliteMooks: They're of a higher rank than the security and tend to be harder to take out. While their outfits don't provide any extra benefits, getting rid of them makes travelling the map slightly easier.

[[folder:Lloyd Burgess]]
The pointman for the private militia.

* DarkIsEvil: He wears dark clothing and is working for a terrorist group.
* MuggedForDisguise: Due to almost all his face and body being obscured by his clothes, he can easily be impersonated by 47.

[[folder:William Candler]]
A herald for providence being tortured in the basement.

* ColdBloodedTorture: What he's being subjected to is brutal, and he can only be killed by using an Easter egg, meaning he's at Berg's mercy until his death.

[[folder:Robert Powell]]
The cook for the militia.

* TeamChef: He cooks for all the soldiers, an impressive feat due to the large amount of soldiers at the compound.

[[folder:Matthew Robertson]]
A technician for the militia. He's been tasked with giving Penelope Graves a SecretTestOfCharacter.

* SecretTestOfCharacter: What he is meant to do to Graves. 47 can do this in his stead if he takes his outfit and fake Interpol badge.

[[folder:Craig Abel & Timothy Guerrero]]
The bodyguards of Penelope Graves

* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: It's possible to kill them alongside Graves, due to how close they tend to be standing to her when an "accident" occurs.

[[folder:Quince Elliott]]
An explosives expert opening the batty.

* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: His bombs and batty can be used to kill Sean Rose, something that was clearly not what he wanted them to be used for.

A technician working on the assault van.
----
* FlatCharacter: Even among the generic militia members, he's pretty bog standard.

[[folder:Gustavo Torres]]
The Mexican secetary of interior who the militia intended to murder.

* SavedByCanon: He survives due to his assailants being murdered before they have a chance to attack him and is doing as well as he can (major life-ruining diplomatic scandal aside) in the present day.

[[folder:Simon Deveraux]]
A paranoid and reclusive CEO of Biosphere.

* {{Irony}}: The weapon that was meant to kill him can be used to kill the person intending to kill him. He never gets to appreciate the irony due to not knowing about it.

!!!'''Affiliation(s):''' GAMA, "Nails", Akira Nakamura, Erich Soders, Don Archibald Yates
!!!'''Voiced By:''' Matthew Gravelle

The chief surgeon at GAMA in Hokkaido in charge of Erich Soders' operation.

* BewareTheNiceOnes: He is a very timid man, but he does have his limits. If you [[YouKilledMyFather make him discover that he's trying to save the man who killed his father]], he will kill Soders under the influence of hand stabilization drugs, which causes amplified rage.
* DeadlyDoctor: If he finds out that Erich Soders killed his father, he will "accidentally" kill him during the operation, provided that he's all drugged up.
* DeathByIrony: If the player wants, his death can be made to look like an accident, exactly like he did to Soders.
* DramaticIrony: He's trying to save the man that murdered his father. This can be averted if the truth is revealed to him.
* FunctionalAddict: He needs to take pills on a regular basis to prevent his hands from shaking. Luckily he has a drug dealer at the hospital. This can be turned against him to either knock him out or to cause a drug-fueled rage that would make him kill Erich Soders.
* GoodCounterpart: To Ito. They're both doctors who are on drugs to help keep them stable during their work. While Ito uses his position to harvest organs while staying under suspicion, Laurent tries to stay legitimate throughout his work. Ito targets people indiscriminately while Laurent will only kill Soders if it's revealed that Soders is his father's murderer.
* HeroicBSOD: Suffers this big time if Erich Soders died, even if he's responsible for it.
* MakeItLookLikeAnAccident: He can dispose of Soders this way if it's revealed that Soders murdered his father. This makes the death come across as medical malpractice rather than the murder it really is.
* MuggedForDisguise: His outfit can be taken in order for 47 to "complete" the operation himself.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: His reaction to murdering Erich Soders himself could be this, as he will leave the operating theater and lean on a railing, depressed over what happened.
* NeverSuicide: Laurent's father was the victim of this, being killed in this way by Soders. He can also become a victim of this, if 47 feels like throwing him off the railing after he kills Soders.
* NiceGuy: He is cordial to people around him and treats KAI like a person, having regularly conversations with her. Even after finding out that Erich Soders murdered his father, he refuses to get revenge for the sake of his career and doing what he feels is right. This completely drops, however, once he is high on drugs.
* OddFriendship: He is good friends with KAI, a friendly artificial intelligence.
* PayEvilUntoEvil: What he can potentially do to Soders, killing the traitor in a purposely botched operation.
* VengeanceFeelsEmpty: He seems to have this opinion after killing Erich Soders.
* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: Making him kill Soders will inevitably ruin his career and potentially have him arrested for murder if it can be proven in court. This is a rather cruel fate for a man who has just been shown an extremely traumatic revelation.
* YouKilledMyFather: Erich Soders killed Laurent's father twenty years earlier, so naturally you can arrange for the doctor to find out and kill him.

[[folder:KAI]]
!!KAI
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/h2016_kai.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:[[BenevolentAI Kronstadt's finest AI]]]]
!!!'''Citizenship:''' N/A
!!!'''Affiliation(s):''' Kronstadt Industries, GAMA, Akira Nakamura, Dr. Nicholas Laurent
!!!'''Voiced By:''' Naoko Mori

An artificial intelligence that controls most of the GAMA hospital.

* ArtificialIntelligence: One of the world's most advanced.
* AIIsACrapshoot: Some of the hospital staff firmly believe KAI is this, however it's averted in the game unless 47 deliberately sabotages KAI to invoke this, after which they starts spouting off creepy nonsense, weird laughter and even weirder facts. The primary reason to sabotage her is to make the operating table go berserk should you activate the procedure.
* BenevolentAI: KAI is quite friendly and will fix any attempts to tamper with medical procedures/equipment unless you sabotage or outsmart it. It even suggests the lead surgeon to try his pickup lines on it.
* ChekhovsGunman: It's developed by ''Kronstadt'' Industries, which will play a major role in the sequel.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Once tampered with, KAI will mumble nonsensical phrases.
--> "Why yes, Mr. Magpie. It is a lovely day for a picnic."
** Her prototype, Ayakashi, is an even bigger one, due to being an {{Expy}} of [[VideoGame/Portal2 Wheatley]].
* DevelopersForesight: Tampering with KAI will still have her send her usual hospital-wide announcement to Jason Portman and is re-recorded to be in her "corrupted" voice. This is quite notable because unless you've played most of the level to unlock the surgery starting location (or know how to get to KAI fast enough to sabotage her, which also necessitates knowing the level fairly well), this corrupted version of the voice line is not likely to be heard by most people, as you still require a keycard/ scrambler/ directors disguise to access KAI, with all but the middle option not being easy to get to.
** There's no real reason to tamper with KAI in "The Snow Festival", but her dialog is unchanged if you happen to do so (including the above quote, further putting it into this trope).
* DissonantSerenity: Her polite MachineMonotone never falters, even when she realizes she's being attacked. The worst she does is politely point out that tampering with her systems could result in a severe legal action from her creators.
* EnterSolutionHere: Tampering with KAI requires knowing the sequence of how to shut her down. Removing any one rack has her force a reboot, while showing the correct sequence on her screen, which corresponds to the server racks in the room. Accidentally pulling the wrong rack electrocutes 47.
* FunWithSubtitles: When KAI rattles off MouthfulOfPi when tampered with, the subtitles also show the numbers KAI is saying, which the devs really didn't need to do as such a number is known for being unwieldly, long and hard to remember by anyone that hasn't got a degree in mathematics. Naturally, the devs listed it out of courtesy to deaf people, so they too could enjoy the EasterEgg.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Frequently weirds out Dr. Laurent with some of the things she says, which are mostly cases of either MySensorsIndicateYouWantToTapThat or its inability to understand human social customs.
* MachineMonotone: Speaks with a robotic, drawling Japanese accent at all times, even when going haywire.
* MasterComputer: The thing is quite important for the hospital, especially in surgeries, as it can fix any "errors" that 47 causes to the equipment.
* MouthfulOfPi: While sabotaged, KAI can decide to start slowly counting off one-million digits of pi. However, she eventually stops short of one-hundred digits, determining that, "pi is boring."
* PuzzleBoss: While sabotaging it down is not necessary, it requires a certain strategy. Reaching it requires either the hospital director's disguise, the master keycard or one disposable scrambler. Then you need to pull out 4 pieces of it in a certain order or you get shocked. Fortunately, pulling the wrong one forces it to reboot, during which you can see the correct sequence to destroy it. Successfully pulling all 4 pieces in the right order shuts it down for the rest of the level.
* {{Robosexual}}: She makes some odd advances on Dr. Laurent, after finding out that he's been recently divorced. She offers to help him practice dating, much to his discomfort.
* ShoutOut:
** Her single eye, polite MachineMonotone and the need to enter her server room to sabotage her and the Hokkaido hospital systems invokes [[Film/TwoThousandOneASpaceOdyssey HAL-9000]]. After being tampered with, her eye even turns red.
** There's an EasterEgg in which you can find her prototype, Ayakashi, a [[VideoGame/Portal2 Wheatley]]-esque CloudCuckoolander AI who is confined to a spherical, metal construct reminiscent of the Aperture Science Personality Cores.
** Some of KAI's ramblings are direct references to specific things:
*** Pulling out the third rack makes KAI state where she was made and who made her, as well as telling 47 a joke that "father" taught her. This is in reference to a similar scene with similar dialog in ''Film/TwoThousandOneASpaceOdyssey'', when HAL-9000 does the same thing when Dave takes out her memory chips.
*** Another ramble is her referencing the Poem [[https://www.amazon.co.uk/Tyger-Burning-Bright-Much-Loved-Half-Remember/dp/1843175940 "Tyger Tyger, Burning Bright"]] which is all about a person wondering who created the Tyger in question, which is thematically appropriate for an AI to spout out. KAI even gets goosebumps reading it out loud.
*** KAI also sings a good chunk of Johann Strauss II's ''"Blue Danube Waltz"'', which is also associated with ''Film/TwoThousandOneASpaceOdyssey''
*** During her haywire rambling, she alludes to ''[[VideoGame/{{Portal}} Portal's]]'' cake meme:

* CreepyMortician: Not only is he involved in organ harvesting, he's overly enthusiastic about his job and acts as if the organs are his children.
* DeadlyDoctor: Well, deadly mortician. He uses his occupation to kidnap people and harvest their organs.
* DrivenToSuicide: Should his dosage be decreased, he will proceed to head to the railings of the zen garden and jump to his death. One of the challenges involves drugging him again to prevent this.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Disturbingly enough, he feels this for the organs he harvests, who he sees as children, should his dosage be ramped up enough.
* EvilCounterpart: To Laurent. They're both a FunctionalAddict who also happen to be very good at their jobs. While Laurent will be driven to kill Soders if the truth about his father's death is revealed, Ito is evil from the get go.
* {{Expy}}: Of Malcolm Sturrock. They're both psychopaths who hide in the background of the level they appear in, drastically changing the tone of the mission when encountered due to being far more depraved than the main targets. While sneaking past or murdering Sturrock is required to complete the mission, Ito can be completely avoided with no penalty.
* FourEyesZeroSoul: He has glasses and is a murderer and organ harvester. While he does show kindness to his fellow doctors, it does little to detract from how depraved his actions are.
* FunctionalAddict: To an extent. He's extremely reliant on his neurochip-delivered medication, lest he go insane, but he still is able to carry out his job as a mortician to an impressive extent. If his dosage is lessened, he will start acting erraticaly, doing completely abnormal things that go far beyond what someone with only Bipolar disorder would be capable of. Whether this is his true personality or a strange form of withdrawl is unknown.
* HiddenVillain: He's extremely evil, but his crimes will do undiscovered by most players, due to his storyline being completely optional.
* JapanesePoliteness: A very dark version of this. He's Japanese, and despite his monstrous actions, he's got impeccable manners and is rather friendly to those around him.
* KarmaHoudini: Since he's not a target, he likely gets away with all his crimes. You can kill him, though there's no incentive for doing so other than a lot of extra dialogue.
* KnightOfCerebus: Situs Inversus is generally one of the lighter missions in the game, with a vibrant and humorous atmosphere. This mood goes out the window entirely when Ito is present, being one of the creepiest and most evil non-targets in the series.
* MoodSwinger: Suffers from Bipolar Disorder, so he has a neurochip implanted in his brain that can be used to alter his mood. This can be used to kill him.
* MushroomSamba: Increasing his dosage will cause him to go into this.
* ObviouslyEvil: Most people covered in blood with a stern and sinister expression aren't up to any good. Ito is no exception.
* OrganTheft: The operation he runs out of GAMA's morgue. He obtained Soders' heart transplant from a poor Brazilian.
* SerialKiller: Heavily implied, as he's already got someone trapped in his morgue who he is planning to harvest. It is likely this isn't the first time he's held someone captive for this reason.
* SoftSpokenSadist: He generally keeps a calm and personable tone, even when ranting to the organs he has harvested.

!!!'''Citizenship:''' Unknown
!!!'''Affiliation(s):''' Liberation, Rebecka
!!!'''Voiced By:''' Timothy Watson

A former member of Liberation.

* ButtMonkey: Losing your girlfriend to a death cult and eventually dying of the virus that killed your girlfriend designates you as a butt monkey. Fortunately, the last option can be prevented by 47.
* ContrivedCoincidence: He can appear in all four of your missions (the third being ''a restricted paramilitary compound'') if you save him from committing suicide, see DeathSeeker below.
* DeathSeeker: He will be seen grieving his girlfriend's suicide in "The Author", eventually running off a cliff at midnight. Stop him from doing ''that'' and he'll inexplicably be in Colorado, where he'll attempt to set himself alight with an oil drum. Save him from '''that''' and he'll appear in "Patient Zero" as a content person walking around the facility and a letter in his room notes that a "heavenly angel" is looking out for him and so he has decided to not to end his life.
* DrivenToSuicide: You can find Jeff in "The Author", sitting on a bench and looking depressed. You can read a suicide note next to him, where he mourns the loss of his girlfriend to Nabazov's cult. If you hang around him for a while, Jeff will get up, run to the cliff screaming and jump off. He'll then attempt to set himself alight with oil during "The Vector". Should he end up being infected by the virus in "Patient Zero", he'll jump off the railings of the hospital's garden.
* EmbarrassingTattoo: Follow him into his room in "The Source" after his fight with Rebecka and he'll call up a tattoo removal service to remove the cult symbol on his forehead.
* FailureIsTheOnlyOption: Regardless of how events play out in Bangkok, Rebecka is canonically killed by the death cult in Bangkok, as revealed in the following mission; "The Author", where Jeff is mourning her in a bench in the main square of Sapienza. No matter if you save Jeff and Rebecka by pacifying them in Bangkok, only Jeff will be present.
* GenreSavvy: Seems to be the only person in the level who realises Oybek is an evil bastard.
* {{Hammerspace}}: In "Patient Zero", he can conceal and carry battle axes, katanas and other large objects on him, something 47 cannot do in ''2016'' (as he cannot hold more than two large objects, neither of which can be concealed), but which requires the briefcase to pull off in ''2'' and ''3'' (but only one large item can be concealed).
* HawaiianShirtedTourist: Wears a crimson and white Hawaiian shirt in all of his appearances, even on a snowy mountain in Hokkaido.
* PetTheDog: If you save his life twice and make sure he doesn't get the virus, Jeff regains his will to live and becomes a much happier person.
* OnlySixFaces: He shares his face model and shirt with a bunch of the male [=NPCs=] from Sapienza, minus the cult's christening symbol on the forehead.
* OneShotCharacter: He only appears in the Patient Zero campaign as an NPC who loses his girlfriend to ritualistic suicide and attempts to join her in the afterlife to be with her. Its oddly dark and touching for a NPC whose sole purpose is to give you a cult disguise.
* VideoGameCaringPotential: Saving his life in each level leads to his story having a happy ending and him regaining his will to live.
* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: You can also murder him yourself or simply watch him commit suicide.

!!!'''Citizenship:''' Japanese
!!!'''Affiliation(s):''' GAMA, "Nails", Akira Nakamura, Erich Soders, Don Archibald Yates
!!!'''Voiced By:''' Matthew Gravelle

The chief surgeon at GAMA in Hokkaido in charge of Erich Soders' operation.

* BewareTheNiceOnes: He is a very timid man, but he does have his limits. If you [[YouKilledMyFather make him discover that he's trying to save the man who killed his father]], he will kill Soders under the influence of hand stabilization drugs, which causes amplified rage.
* DeadlyDoctor: If he finds out that Erich Soders killed his father, he will "accidentally" kill him during the operation, provided that he's all drugged up.
* DeathByIrony: If the player wants, his death can be made to look like an accident, exactly like he did to Soders.
* DramaticIrony: He's trying to save the man that murdered his father. This can be averted if the truth is revealed to him.
* FunctionalAddict: He needs to take pills on a regular basis to prevent his hands from shaking. Luckily he has a drug dealer at the hospital. This can be turned against him to either knock him out or to cause a drug-fueled rage that would make him kill Erich Soders.
* GoodCounterpart: To Ito. They're both doctors who are on drugs to help keep them stable during their work. While Ito uses his position to harvest organs while staying under suspicion, Laurent tries to stay legitimate throughout his work. Ito targets people indiscriminately while Laurent will only kill Soders if it's revealed that Soders is his father's murderer.
* HeroicBSOD: Suffers this big time if Erich Soders died, even if he's responsible for it.
* MakeItLookLikeAnAccident: He can dispose of Soders this way if it's revealed that Soders murdered his father. This makes the death come across as medical malpractice rather than the murder it really is.
* MuggedForDisguise: His outfit can be taken in order for 47 to "complete" the operation himself.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: His reaction to murdering Erich Soders himself could be this, as he will leave the operating theater and lean on a railing, depressed over what happened.
* NeverSuicide: Laurent's father was the victim of this, being killed in this way by Soders. He can also become a victim of this, if 47 feels like throwing him off the railing after he kills Soders.
* NiceGuy: He is cordial to people around him and treats KAI like a person, having regularly conversations with her. Even after finding out that Erich Soders murdered his father, he refuses to get revenge for the sake of his career and doing what he feels is right. This completely drops, however, once he is high on drugs.
* OddFriendship: He is good friends with KAI, a friendly artificial intelligence.
* PayEvilUntoEvil: What he can potentially do to Soders, killing the traitor in a purposely botched operation.
* VengeanceFeelsEmpty: He seems to have this opinion after killing Erich Soders.
* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: Making him kill Soders will inevitably ruin his career and potentially have him arrested for murder if it can be proven in court. This is a rather cruel fate for a man who has just been shown an extremely traumatic revelation.
* YouKilledMyFather: Erich Soders killed Laurent's father twenty years earlier, so naturally you can arrange for the doctor to find out and kill him.

[[folder:KAI]]
!!KAI
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/h2016_kai.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:[[BenevolentAI Kronstadt's finest AI]]]]
!!!'''Citizenship:''' N/A
!!!'''Affiliation(s):''' Kronstadt Industries, GAMA, Akira Nakamura, Dr. Nicholas Laurent
!!!'''Voiced By:''' Naoko Mori

An artificial intelligence that controls most of the GAMA hospital.

* ArtificialIntelligence: One of the world's most advanced.
* AIIsACrapshoot: Some of the hospital staff firmly believe KAI is this, however it's averted in the game unless 47 deliberately sabotages KAI to invoke this, after which they starts spouting off creepy nonsense, weird laughter and even weirder facts. The primary reason to sabotage her is to make the operating table go berserk should you activate the procedure.
* BenevolentAI: KAI is quite friendly and will fix any attempts to tamper with medical procedures/equipment unless you sabotage or outsmart it. It even suggests the lead surgeon to try his pickup lines on it.
* ChekhovsGunman: It's developed by ''Kronstadt'' Industries, which will play a major role in the sequel.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Once tampered with, KAI will mumble nonsensical phrases.
--> "Why yes, Mr. Magpie. It is a lovely day for a picnic."
** Her prototype, Ayakashi, is an even bigger one, due to being an {{Expy}} of [[VideoGame/Portal2 Wheatley]].
* DevelopersForesight: Tampering with KAI will still have her send her usual hospital-wide announcement to Jason Portman and is re-recorded to be in her "corrupted" voice. This is quite notable because unless you've played most of the level to unlock the surgery starting location (or know how to get to KAI fast enough to sabotage her, which also necessitates knowing the level fairly well), this corrupted version of the voice line is not likely to be heard by most people, as you still require a keycard/ scrambler/ directors disguise to access KAI, with all but the middle option not being easy to get to.
** There's no real reason to tamper with KAI in "The Snow Festival", but her dialog is unchanged if you happen to do so (including the above quote, further putting it into this trope).
* DissonantSerenity: Her polite MachineMonotone never falters, even when she realizes she's being attacked. The worst she does is politely point out that tampering with her systems could result in a severe legal action from her creators.
* EnterSolutionHere: Tampering with KAI requires knowing the sequence of how to shut her down. Removing any one rack has her force a reboot, while showing the correct sequence on her screen, which corresponds to the server racks in the room. Accidentally pulling the wrong rack electrocutes 47.
* FunWithSubtitles: When KAI rattles off MouthfulOfPi when tampered with, the subtitles also show the numbers KAI is saying, which the devs really didn't need to do as such a number is known for being unwieldly, long and hard to remember by anyone that hasn't got a degree in mathematics. Naturally, the devs listed it out of courtesy to deaf people, so they too could enjoy the EasterEgg.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Frequently weirds out Dr. Laurent with some of the things she says, which are mostly cases of either MySensorsIndicateYouWantToTapThat or its inability to understand human social customs.
* MachineMonotone: Speaks with a robotic, drawling Japanese accent at all times, even when going haywire.
* MasterComputer: The thing is quite important for the hospital, especially in surgeries, as it can fix any "errors" that 47 causes to the equipment.
* MouthfulOfPi: While sabotaged, KAI can decide to start slowly counting off one-million digits of pi. However, she eventually stops short of one-hundred digits, determining that, "pi is boring."
* PuzzleBoss: While sabotaging it down is not necessary, it requires a certain strategy. Reaching it requires either the hospital director's disguise, the master keycard or one disposable scrambler. Then you need to pull out 4 pieces of it in a certain order or you get shocked. Fortunately, pulling the wrong one forces it to reboot, during which you can see the correct sequence to destroy it. Successfully pulling all 4 pieces in the right order shuts it down for the rest of the level.
* {{Robosexual}}: She makes some odd advances on Dr. Laurent, after finding out that he's been recently divorced. She offers to help him practice dating, much to his discomfort.
* ShoutOut:
** Her single eye, polite MachineMonotone and the need to enter her server room to sabotage her and the Hokkaido hospital systems invokes [[Film/TwoThousandOneASpaceOdyssey HAL-9000]]. After being tampered with, her eye even turns red.
** There's an EasterEgg in which you can find her prototype, Ayakashi, a [[VideoGame/Portal2 Wheatley]]-esque CloudCuckoolander AI who is confined to a spherical, metal construct reminiscent of the Aperture Science Personality Cores.
** Some of KAI's ramblings are direct references to specific things:
*** Pulling out the third rack makes KAI state where she was made and who made her, as well as telling 47 a joke that "father" taught her. This is in reference to a similar scene with similar dialog in ''Film/TwoThousandOneASpaceOdyssey'', when HAL-9000 does the same thing when Dave takes out her memory chips.
*** Another ramble is her referencing the Poem [[https://www.amazon.co.uk/Tyger-Burning-Bright-Much-Loved-Half-Remember/dp/1843175940 "Tyger Tyger, Burning Bright"]] which is all about a person wondering who created the Tyger in question, which is thematically appropriate for an AI to spout out. KAI even gets goosebumps reading it out loud.
*** KAI also sings a good chunk of Johann Strauss II's ''"Blue Danube Waltz"'', which is also associated with ''Film/TwoThousandOneASpaceOdyssey''
*** During her haywire rambling, she alludes to ''[[VideoGame/{{Portal}} Portal's]]'' cake meme:

* SerialKiller: Heavily implied, as he's already got someone trapped in his morgue who he is planning to harvest. It is likely this isn't the first time he's held someone captive for this reason.
* SoftSpokenSadist: He generally keeps a calm and personable tone, even when ranting to the organs he has harvested.

!!!'''Citizenship:''' Unknown
!!!'''Affiliation(s):''' Liberation, Rebecka
!!!'''Voiced By:''' Timothy Watson

A former member of Liberation.

* ButtMonkey: Losing your girlfriend to a death cult and eventually dying of the virus that killed your girlfriend designates you as a butt monkey. Fortunately, the last option can be prevented by 47.
* ContrivedCoincidence: He can appear in all four of your missions (the third being ''a restricted paramilitary compound'') if you save him from committing suicide, see DeathSeeker below.
* DeathSeeker: He will be seen grieving his girlfriend's suicide in "The Author", eventually running off a cliff at midnight. Stop him from doing ''that'' and he'll inexplicably be in Colorado, where he'll attempt to set himself alight with an oil drum. Save him from '''that''' and he'll appear in "Patient Zero" as a content person walking around the facility and a letter in his room notes that a "heavenly angel" is looking out for him and so he has decided to not to end his life.
* DrivenToSuicide: You can find Jeff in "The Author", sitting on a bench and looking depressed. You can read a suicide note next to him, where he mourns the loss of his girlfriend to Nabazov's cult. If you hang around him for a while, Jeff will get up, run to the cliff screaming and jump off. He'll then attempt to set himself alight with oil during "The Vector". Should he end up being infected by the virus in "Patient Zero", he'll jump off the railings of the hospital's garden.
* EmbarrassingTattoo: Follow him into his room in "The Source" after his fight with Rebecka and he'll call up a tattoo removal service to remove the cult symbol on his forehead.
* FailureIsTheOnlyOption: Regardless of how events play out in Bangkok, Rebecka is canonically killed by the death cult in Bangkok, as revealed in the following mission; "The Author", where Jeff is mourning her in a bench in the main square of Sapienza. No matter if you save Jeff and Rebecka by pacifying them in Bangkok, only Jeff will be present.
* GenreSavvy: Seems to be the only person in the level who realises Oybek is an evil bastard.
* {{Hammerspace}}: In "Patient Zero", he can conceal and carry battle axes, katanas and other large objects on him, something 47 cannot do in ''2016'' (as he cannot hold more than two large objects, neither of which can be concealed), but which requires the briefcase to pull off in ''2'' and ''3'' (but only one large item can be concealed).
* HawaiianShirtedTourist: Wears a crimson and white Hawaiian shirt in all of his appearances, even on a snowy mountain in Hokkaido.
* PetTheDog: If you save his life twice and make sure he doesn't get the virus, Jeff regains his will to live and becomes a much happier person.
* OnlySixFaces: He shares his face model and shirt with a bunch of the male [=NPCs=] from Sapienza, minus the cult's christening symbol on the forehead.
* OneShotCharacter: He only appears in the Patient Zero campaign as an NPC who loses his girlfriend to ritualistic suicide and attempts to join her in the afterlife to be with her. Its oddly dark and touching for a NPC whose sole purpose is to give you a cult disguise.
* VideoGameCaringPotential: Saving his life in each level leads to his story having a happy ending and him regaining his will to live.
* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: You can also murder him yourself or simply watch him commit suicide.
