Hitman with a Heart: Difference between revisions
→Video Games
Line 121:
* The two main characters of [[Rail Shooter]] arcade game ''Cooper's Nine''.
* Agent 47 from the ''[[Hitman]]'' series does not kill innocents unless absolutely required, such as when he kills a postman in one mission of Blood Money because the package he was delivering was Code Red, and in the last mission when he {{spoiler|kills a priest and reporter for knowing too much about him}}. Otherwise, 47 fits this trope perfectly, the storyline and game discourage it, and any other bloodshed is left up to the player.
** While most of the mentioned discretion is done out of pragmatism and not out of compassion, he does show shades of morality such as in the novel ''Enemy Within'' where he helped rescue orphans from a child prostitution ring and entrusted them to his friend Father Vittorio, and in ''Hitman: Absolution'', where he hesitated to finish off his handler Diana and agreed to protect a fellow clone named Victoria to keep her from being used as a ruthless killing machine, and expressed disgust over the use of "children as weapons". In the prequel comic book ''Birth of the Hitman'', 47 showed affection towards a lab rabbit and set it free, telling it to go and multiply now that 47 has given said rabbit a chance to live a normal life.
* Jaffar from ''[[Fire Emblem]]'' 7, who defrosts thanks to the friendship (and love, if you support them to A level) of his boss's daughter, Nino.
** Also, Volke, From ''[[Fire Emblem]]'' 9 and 10, counts.
