History Characters / Hitman2016

* HighVoltageDeath: He can suffer one of these, thanks to a faulty radio microphone.

* SmugSnake: Seems to believe he can manipulate the KGB to do his bidding as well as screw over the CIA.

* TheFashionista: A rare male example. Viktor isn't in fashion just as a cover, he genuinely loves what he does and prefers it to his position as a head of IAGO.
** That said, he's clearly more interested in making a profit than genuinely investing in the industry. He is caught off guard in an interview when he is asked about his design philosophy and artistic vision, ending the interview as soon as possible and afterwards condemning the fact that a CEO apparently has to be passionate about their projects and not just OnlyInItForTheMoney.

* BadassIsraeli: Subverted in that she's a master spymaster but is no harder to kill than anyone else.

* SoProudOfYou: Is genuinely proud of the IAGO agent responsible for retrieving the NOC list, offering (though, possibly joking) to promote her to a central position in IAGO if she continues to impress and is disappointed when the agent announces her intentions to quit the spy business and start her own fashion brand (though she does wish her luck).

** John Stubbs does not walk around the Himmapan Hotel, instead, he is confined to the bottom floor, and at no point does him and his wife walk up to their hotel room, or mosey up to the cafe.

* AffablyEvil: While Stubbs is semi-retired and lives a life of luxury from his ill-gotten gains, he genuinely loves his wife, Caroline, and has set up measures for her to retrieve his fortune when he dies. He pays Will, his ghost writer, out of pocket to the Himmapan personally and tells him to keep writing his biography should anything happen to him.

** He can be poisoned by snail soup.

** He can be drowned in a toilet if the snail soup or his shisha pipe is laced with rat poison.

* AmbiguousSituation: Either his presence in the militia suggests he was hired for his duties as a field doctor and the Shadow Client legitimately didn't know he was a member of a cult, or the entire map is just meant to take place on a different apricot farm. It's not clear which is the correct interpretation of events. The phonecall between Paine and Nabazov in "The Source" suggests the Militia were looking for medical staff to join them.
* AssholeVictim: Diana isn't particularly upset when you kill Paine. If you save killing him until last, she'll end her introduction of him with "good riddance".
* ComicBookFantasyCasting: He bears an uncanny resemblance to [[Series/DoctorWho The Eleventh Doctor]], played by Creator/MattSmith, down to the glasses he wears. He also bears a resembles to Music/DavidByrne as he appeared in the music video for "[[Music/TalkingHeads Once in a Lifetime]]", particularly his suit and bowtie.

* FlatCharacter: He may very well be the most undeveloped character in the entire game, having no dialogue or personality whatsoever, save from what's mentioned from his briefing.

* TheMole: His bio indicates that his role in Liberation is to hinder CDC efforts to combat the Nabazov virus once it's released. He's also this for the militia, who he's using to test the virus.

** Yulduz sees Nabazov, a ConMan responsible for several mass suicides, as a lunatic who will kill himself during the suicide ritual.
