Cleaning the cleaner
Father in law
Reason for death
UnknownDetails
A window cleaner killed while at work- Obnoxious In-Laws: What we're led to believe about him and possibly the reason behind his death.
- Schmuck Bait: No, you can't Make It Look Like an Accident.
- Starter Villain: The first "villain" faced in the second game.
Cerberus the guardian
Guard
Reason for death
So the client could trespass laterDetails
A guard guardian an area that the client has been banned from- Epic Fail: He (or his employers) apparently can't spell security. It's spelled as skurety. How the hell they're that bad at spelling is probably the biggest mystery in the series since the Mind Screw at the end of the fourth classic game.
- Noodle Incident: It's unknown why the client isn't allowed in the area this guy is guarding.
Cliffdiving
Business partner
Reason for death
UnknownDetails
A man killed while hiking with his killer-by-proxy- Dramatic Irony: He was hiking with the man who ordered his death.
- Faux Affably Evil: The guy that orders his death is this, going on a hike with him just to give Tyler a way to identify and murder him.
- Make It Look Like an Accident: Due to extreme police incompetence, him being shot in the head and thrown off a cliff is seen as a horrible accident. It's likely the "friend" was a convincing enough actor to sell this steaming pile of bullshit to the idiotic investigators.
Admiring the view
Blackmailer
Reason for death
Blackmailing the clientDetails
A blackmailer killed while on a skylift admiring the sights- Asshole Victim: Yet another blackmailer who is killed because a client doesn't see any other option to deal with this complication.
- Blackmail: What he's doing to the desperate client and why he's ultimately assassinated.
- Blood-Splattered Innocents: The guy in the skylift with him is almost certainly drenched in the man's blood, probably meaning that this will probably go down as one of his least favorite skylift rides.
Hunting the hunter
Waylon Parker
Reason for death
Hunting animalsDetails
A hunter killed while hunting.- Disproportionate Retribution: While hunting is a controversial topic, killing people is usually considered worse than killing animals, meaning this guy probably wasn't the Asshole Victim the client makes him out to be.
- Evil Poacher: What the client implies he is, though this could just be hyperbole to make them feel better about ordering a hit on a fellow human.
- Karmic Death: He's a hunter killed by Tyler, who has a knack for Hunting the Most Dangerous Game.
Waiting for the buzz
Harasser
Reason for death
Harassing a family everydayDetails
A creepy and potentially dangerous man stalking a family.- Asshole Victim: A stalker and creep killed while preparing to harass a family.
- Newspaper-Thin Disguise: What he uses to obfuscate his stalking behavior. He's even killed while reading it.
Party pooper
Business partner
Reason for death
Getting in the way of a lucrative business ventureDetails
A businessman killed while attending a fancy party.- Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: He was shot off a building, causing him to land on a school bus and a tree. Humorously, the tree is given the most focus in the news article about his death.
- Disproportionate Retribution: Getting in the way of a business deal isn't the greatest motivation for killing someone. Too bad it's enough of a reason to get Tyler to do the deed.
- Needle in a Stack of Needles: It takes a bit of time to identify him due to the fact he looks just like everyone else at the party.
- No Kill like Overkill: He's shot off a tall building while on the roof. It's safe to say he's probably dead no matter what the exact cause of death is.
- Puzzle Boss: The challenge of the level is spotting him amongst the non-target party guests.
- Wine Is Classy: He drinks lots of red wine with his right hand, so he must be classy as hell. Too bad he dies before he can become even classier.
Paint it red
Gangster
Reason for death
Details
- Ambiguously Evil: It's unclear if they're a serious threat or mild nuisance.
- Gosh Dang It to Heck!: Their "profane" scribblings are mildish and childish, with "arse" being their worst curse word. For vandals, they're extremely conservative with their language.
- Jaywalking Will Ruin Your Life: The only crime they're seen doing is vandalism, which is rather minor as far as crimes go. Though considering they're gangsters, it's probably far from their only misdeed.
Burying the buried
Murderer
Reason for death
Murdering the client's fatherDetails
A smug murderer murdered at the funeral of his victim- Asshole Victim: He's undoubtedly one of the worst people Tyler kills, and his death is made to be satisfying due to his awful deeds.
- Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: He got close to the victim's father, only to coldly end his life.
- Hate Sink: He's a smug and murderous scumbag who doesn't even have Protagonist-Centered Morality on his side.
- Karmic Death: He's killed at his victim's funeral.
- Reminiscing About Your Victims: He does this by turning up to the memorial of the man he killed. Too bad, his smug behavior is cut short when he joins his victim in death.
- Smug Snake: He turns up to the funeral of the man he killed. Fortunately, the funeral can accomodate an extra person, both in attendance and in afterlife.
- Villain with Good Publicity: He's merely seen as an innocent victim of Tyler's, rather than the cold blooded murderer he really is.
Cold people
Worker
Reason for death
Posing a threat to the client's jobDetails
A businessman killed after making sure he signed a form.- Flat Character: Because the client is a sociopath who sees people as obstacles or tools, he doesn't even bother to give a basic description of this guy.
- Kick the Dog: His death is purely to help a greedy and heartless scumbag advance further up the corporate ladder.
- Running Gag: He's yet another poor sod that Matt Blooper asks Tyler to murder.
Rock and roll
Park bench man
Reason for death
UnknownDetails
A man crushed to death with a rock while sitting on a park bench.- Death from Above: The poor guy has a rock dumped on his head.
- Improbable Weapon User: On the receiving end of this, courtesy of a rock.
- Make It Look Like an Accident: He's killed in a way that could make it look like a stone just happened to fall from the sky and crush him to death in some sort of horrible tragedy.
Slumdog madness
Poppy Reaper
Reason for death
Blackmailing a familyDetails
A blackmailer killed in the slums- Asshole Victim: A scummy blackmailer killed to stop his evil deeds from continuing. He's a middle-of-the-road bastard as far as Tyler's targets go, though that doesn't make him any less deserving of his fate.
- Blackmail: Yet another douchebag blackmailer targetting an entire family.
- Needle in a Stack of Needles: Like the businessman on the high rise building, this guy has to be identified before he can be assassinated.
Sunshine mind
Grandpa
Reason for death
Threatening to kick his asshole grandson out of the willDetails
An old man killed while sitting by a pond.- Call-Back: He's not the first old man to be killed near the water.
- Inheritance Murder: Like the old man from the last game, he's killed for this reason.
- Kick the Dog: He's an innocent victim killed because of the greediness of his own family.
- Would Harm a Senior: He's the senior harmed, due to his greedy shit of a grandson and his entitlement issues.
Game store lore
Store owner
Reason for death
UnknownDetails
A guy working at a game store killed for unknown reasons.- Flat Character: All that's known about him is that he works at a game store and seems to enjoy chatting with customers.
- Killed Mid-Sentence: He's murdered while having a conversation with a customer.
Pass the gas
Stephen Huskey
Reason for death
UnknownDetails
A man killed while working a shift in a gas station- Flat Character: Apart from his name, he really only exists to show that wind is now a factor in sniping missions.
- Toilet Humor: The title and mission punchline make a few variations of the same fart joke. It's unknown if Mr. Huskey actually farted as he died.
- Warm-Up Boss: The first guy killed where wind makes it's way into the level mechanics.
Optimistic Mechanic
Mechanic
Reason for death
No ideaDetails
A mechanic killed in an "accident" on the behest of another client.- Cruel and Unusual Death: While quick, being crushed under a car is still a painful and bloody way to go.
- Death by Irony: He's assassinated with the car he was repairing.
- Death from Above: Well, if above includes a few feet. He's crushed to death by the car he's working on.
- Make It Look Like an Accident: A request in killing him, as the client doesn't want the police to look too deeply into the murder.
Heart attack grill
Backstabber
Reason for death
Ruining the lives of the client one too many timesDetails
A Fat Bastard killed while eating at a local cafe- Asshole Victim: While it's not clear what exactly he did, it's bad enough that someone willingly hired an assassin to kill him for it.
- Death by Irony: His gluttony kills him indirectly, as it makes it far easier to identify him due to the sheer volume of food he has ordered. If Tyler didn't kill him, the burgers probably would have.
- Fat Bastard: While this isn't shown for graphical reasons, he's implied to be a gluttonous man.
- Needle in a Stack of Needles: He's yet another guy who looks identical to the other patrons, so care has to be taken in identifying him before pulling the trigger.
Interrogation by heart
Ron
Reason for death
Being complicit in shooting Doug and to get information about the whereabouts of his bossDetails
A thug for a rival assassin that tried to kill Tyler in the previous game.- Asshole Victim: While he's pitiful in his final moments, he's still a kidnapper and thug who almost killed an innocent man.
- Be as Unhelpful as Possible: He's tight-lipped initially, so Tyler uses a buzzsaw to loosen them.
- Bullying a Dragon: While he's not quite Defiant to the End, he's still hostile and unhelpful to Tyler even when facing imminent torture and death.
- Cold-Blooded Torture: He's subjected to a torture almost as cruel as his execution, being threatened with said execution until he cracks under pressure.
- Cruel and Unusual Death: He's sliced in half with a buzzsaw.
- Disc-One Final Boss: He's killed halfway through the game in order to get the whereabouts of his boss, the Big Bad of the first two games.
- The Dragon: He's his boss' top muscle and a far more physically imposing person.
- Dumb Muscle: He's big and dense.
- Groin Attack: The buzzsaw first cuts through him from between his legs.
- Horrible Judge of Character: He somehow thinks a Professional Killer doesn't have the balls to kill him. Obviously, Tyler isn't impressed with this stupid and naive statement and soon shows him just how wrong this statement is.
- Jack Bauer Interrogation Technique: This is used to get him to cooperate with a seriously pissed off Tyler.
- Oh, Crap!: He's aware that he's in serious doo-doo when he's tied up several feet away from a hungry buzzsaw at the hands of an infuriated Tyler.
- Precision F-Strike: He starts cursing up a storm as his legs are moved inches away from a rotating buzzsaw.
- Sequel Escalation: Due to Tyler having a special grudge against Ron and his boss for kidnapping his wife, the torture this time around is even more brutal than the previous guy, who was just another contract.
- Would Harm a Senior: Seriously wounded Doug when the latter pulled a Heroic Sacrifice to save Tyler's life.
Valet ballet
Co-worker
Reason for death
So the client can earn a promotionDetails
A valet killed while at work to stop him from getting another promotion.- Disproportionate Retribution: While it's understandably frustrating that he's getting promotions faster than the client who has been working there twice as long, it's a pretty crappy reason to have him murdered.
- Kick the Dog: He's murdered for an ultimately trivial reason. It's safe to say that he's not one of Tyler's most moral contracts.
Close combat
Drug king
Reason for death
To cripple his drug empireDetails
A drug dealer hiding out in the woods who was killed alongside his bodyguards.death isn't treated as that bad.
- Genre Savvy: He's got armed guards around him for constant protection, though it doesn't save him from Tyler's ambush.
- Stationary Boss: He's reading while he's ambushed, so he's a sitting duck as his bodyguards engage in a firefight with Tyler.
- Villains Out Shopping: He's enjoying a good book when Tyler puts an end to his life story.
- Wake-Up Call Boss: While he's not a fighter, his bodyguards sure as hell are, and will quickly kill Tyler if not eliminated first.
Rolling high roller
Casino magnates
Reason for death
To stop them from dwarfing smaller businessesDetails
Two casino owners targetted before they could form a merger and outperform smaller casinos in bumville.- Disproportionate Retribution: While they're ruthless businessmen, they don't seem to be evil or corrupt, making their death a far stronger punishment than what suits their actions.
- Oh, Crap!: If one of them is killed, the other one will take off running.
- Pet the Dog: A very mild one. It's only necessary to kill one of them to complete the mission. While the other guy will probably be traumatised for the rest of his life, he'll still have his.
- Screw This, I'm Outta Here: If things go south, the survivor will wisely make a mad dash for his helicopter and become one of Tyler's only spared targets.
Office hours
Employee
Reason for death
Knowing too much about the client's businessDetails
An employee murdered under the orders of Matt Blooper (who became a CEO sometime between the last mission and this one.) He's shot to death while giving a presentation.- Bad Boss: The victim of a particularly nasty one, who only became one due to Tyler being paid to kill anyone who got in his way.
- Call-Back: It's not the first time an employee was killed because He Knows Too Much.
- He Knows Too Much: The reason he dies is so he cannot blow the lid on Matt's nefarious schemes.
- Kick the Dog: Yet another innocent victim of Tyler and his most prominent client, Matt Blooper.
- Killed Mid-Sentence: Like many others before him, he's abruptly murdered while talking, though the spin on this usual occurance is that he just so happens to be giving a presentation at the time of his demise.
The briefcase case
Man with brown briefcase
Reason for death
So the client could make twice as much from their dealDetails
A dealer killed during a transaction.- Ambiguously Evil: It's unclear what the nature of the deal was. Was he dealing drugs? Blackmail material? Or simply something related to business? All that's known was that it was of a high enough value to warrant paying an assassin to kill him for the contents he possessed.
- Flat Character: He's defined by the briefcase by his side, with nothing else noteworthy about him as a person.
- Greed: What made him get assassinated. The person he was transacting with ordered his death in order to get his briefcase without paying him for it.
Cutting out
Robert
Reason for death
Stealing from charity organisationsDetails
An embezzler targetted for stealing from charity groups. He was killed while trimming his hedges.- Asshole Victim: He's a heartless thief who skims money from charities so it's safe to say he more than deserves what Tyler dishes out to him.
- Cruel and Unusual Death: After being shot in the head, he accidentally impales himself in the back with both blades of his hedge trimmer. If the bullet didn't kill him, the injuries from his own gardening equipment probably would have.
- Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: He inadvertedly does this to himself, with his own garden shears. Even Tyler is shocked with this improvised attack.
- Recycled Premise: He's not the first person in the clear vision series to embezzle money from a charity. Bumville seems to have a problem with these types of people.
Dead shipment
Guy in debt
Reason for death
Not paying back his debtDetails
A man killed while at his dock job due to his failure to pay back debts to a Loan Shark.- Disproportionate Retribution: Being killed for failing to repay a debt is an extreme and extremely final reaction.
- Kick the Dog: He's a victim of both a Loan Shark and Tyler, being murdered by the latter. He's a poor guy way in over his head killed for a cruel reason rather than a genuinely evil person.
- Loan Shark: He's victim to the ruthless debt collecting methods of one and to the life collecting methods of Tyler.
- Needle in a Stack of Needles: His level has some of the most civilians going about their daily lives, making it slightly harder to identify him. As a welder, he's the one suspended on the ship's edge.
- Unfortunate Names: The ship he's welding is called the morbid obesity.
???
Rival assassin
Reason for death
Kidnapping Tyler's wife and Shooting DougDetails
A mobster and assassin who is Tyler's arch nemesis.- Arch-Enemy: He's this to Tyler, due to kidnapping his wife.
- Big Bad: He's Tyler's most persistent and dangerous threat for the first two games.
- Boom, Headshot!: How Tyler kills him.
- Bullying a Dragon: He really screwed up by kidnapping the wife of a man with dozens of kills under his belt.
- Cutscene Boss: He's encountered and killed in a cinematic.
- Dark Is Evil: Has a black hat and a blacker heart.
- Evil Is Petty: He tried to murder Tyler's wife after mocking Tyler after he realised that the assassin was coming to kill him.
- Eviler than Thou: He's what Tyler would be if he shed all his morality and embraced all the evil that lies within his heart.
- Final Boss: He's the last person killed by Tyler in the second game.
- Genre Savvy: He's smart enough to steal Tyler's gun before waking him up, leaving the assassin defenseless. He also tries to kill Tyler when he realises intimidation isn't going to work, only stopped by Doug pulling a Big Damn Heroes right before he can pull the trigger.
- Hat of Authority: His mobster style hat helps distinguish himself from Tyler and Ron, and it makes him look more menacing.
- Hate Sink: A cruel and ruthless man like Tyler, but he lacks Tyler's many Pet the Dog moments.
- I Have Your Wife: He kidnaps Tyler's beloved wife, which drives the plot of the second game.
- It's Personal: He shot Doug and kidnapped Tyler's wife, almost killing him as well. It's no wonder Tyler is so obsessed with killing him.
- Killed Offscreen: His death isn't seen, but it sure as hell is heard.
- Non-Action Big Bad: He relies on his goons to dirty their hands on his behalf, not even having his gun on hand when Tyler encounters him.
- Professional Killer: What he's infamous for. He doesn't appreciate Tyler stepping in on his turf and taking business away from him.
- Would Harm a Senior: He wounds Doug with a pistol when the latter tries to stop Tyler from being killed.
- Would Hit a Girl: He tried to suffocate Tyler's wife out of spite when Tyler came to kill him, only failing because of Tyler's haste.
