History Characters / HitmanBloodMoney

* KickTheSonOfABitch: Hiring an assassin to kill your uncle, husband and father-in-law would be a pretty evil thing to do, but considering all of them are running a criminal empire (and are implied to have sexually abused her), it's hard to find too much fault for her.

* OffOnATechnicality: The authorities were ultimately unable to nail Clarence on charges of criminal negligence and manslaughter. It's implied he did some illicit evidence tampering to secure his acquittal.

* PyrrhicVictory: All charges against him were cleared and he avoided jail time, but his park was shut down and the lawsuits cost him his entire fortune. By the time the game begins, he's barely scraping by, he's completely at the mercy of a gang that doesn't need to pay him, his wife has left him and he's a crying miserable wreck with no future. And the father of one of his victims ''still'' wants Clarence dead, prompting a master assassin to come for him.

* OffOnATechnicality: The authorities were ultimately unable to nail Clarence on charges of criminal negligence and manslaughter.

* HowTheMightyHaveFallen: Joseph "Swing King" Clarence is a desperate man trying to rebuild his reputation. It's just a shame that in getting off scot-free, he obviously rubbed one of the victim's families the wrong way. 47 has come to put the washed-up mogul out of his misery, who has resorted to allowing a gang to distribute drugs out of the amusement park.
* HumiliationConga: Fresh from losing his fortune in court and being forced to rent out his beloved park to drug dealers, the Swing King has to endure a plethora of defeats and humiliations over the course of the mission: his wife is divorcing him, his futile attempt to recover from bankruptcy blows up in his face, his precious trophy statue gets smashed and he's left to spend the rest of his day alone in his office with barely enough authority to order his own niece around. And then 47 shows up to kill him. Cue the waterworks and humiliating death scene.

The acting Vice President of the United States of America, who was only placed in the role after the previous Vice President died under suspicious circumstances. He's a former biotech CEO and a secret member of Alpha Zerox and is conspiring with the Franchise to assassinate President Stewart so he can become President and enact their policies, starting with a ban on human cloning so the Franchise will have a monopoly on the technology. Agent Smith hires 47 to kill Morris in order to prevent the President's assassination.

* NoKillLikeOverkill: As anyone who's seen the Swing King in his current state knows, hiring 47 to kill him would be roughly equivalent to hiring the Terminator to crush a snail. Somewhat {{Justified}} in that Clarence seems to have given up on leaving his park and unwittingly has a small army of hoods protecting him, even if only by proximity.

* KickTheDog: Zig-zagged with KickTheSonOfABitch. On top of screwing the Swing King over in the rent agreement, he goes so far as to break his prize statue and insult him, taking great delight in watching Clarence's despair. Nasty, but then again, it's not as if the man didn't have it coming.
* KickTheSonOfABitch: 47 didn't need to kill Scoop, but he definitely won't be missed.

* BonusBoss: Unlike Eve and Maynard John, ? can be skipped. In addition, there's no actual bonus for killing her.

* HundredPercentAdorationRating: Despite being a ruthless criminal, people have nothing but positive things to say about him after his demise. It probably helps that his past wasn't revealed. People can't decide whether they love or hate his wine though.
