Creator name: teddyfilmore Contract ID: 2-29-4173298-84 Platform: Playstation Contract Title: Kuro Manto Contract Briefing:
For nearly a century, a spirit known as Kuro Manto has been playing his own grisly game of thrones. If you lose, you die - and the only way to win is to never play at all.
According to myth, he wears a black cape and mask and forms out of shadow in public restrooms late at night, more often in the ladies’ room. He asks one simple but loaded question, “Do you want red toilet paper or blue toilet paper?”
While reading a few stories, the urban legend Aka Manto (Red Cape) stuck out as a fun one to adapt. In some versions, he asks about capes. In some, about vests. Some versions, he only appears in the women’s restroom in the stall farthest from the entrance, but the choice always determines how you die. The only way to survive is to run.
Choose red and he disembowels you, blue and he strangles the life out of you, any other color and he drags you to Hell. And in some versions, choosing yellow gets you drowned in the toilet.
I swapped it to Kuro Manto (Black Cape), because the Arkian Tuxedo is creepy, and, thankfully, there’s isn’t a red cape in my wardrobe.
How dare you it’s absolutely fabulous, it’s like some kind of superhero gentleman burglar costume, Arsène Lupin style. It’s my default suit for Sgail SONKOs
Contract Briefing:
O pitiful shadow lost in the darkness…
Bringing torment and pain to others…
A damned soul wallowing in sin…
Care to give death a try?
She waits in the mangroves, 47. Hair like rotted silk. Eyes like glass. The villagers call her Nure-onna, the Wet Woman. They say she came from across the sea, cursed and cast out, cradling her drowned child. In her arms: a stone black as night. It hums. It breathes. Kage-no-seki. Shadow Ore.
Anyone who seeks the ore vanishes. That’s the warning. She offers her child, and if you take it, she takes you.
But the truth is colder.
The ore is real. The villagers have kept it hidden for generations, buried deep in the mangroves. The story? A weapon. Fear is more reliable than fences. So they built a monster to guard it.
Now three outsiders have slipped in, posing as locals. One’s already embedded with the island’s security. They don’t fear the legend. They’re here to find what lies beneath it.
The villagers saw through them. They’ve brought you in to finish what the myth began.
No noise. No witnesses. Make them vanish. Let the mangroves keep their secrets.
While reading on some Japanese horror tales this one struck out for me as well But I tried to make a contract where you have to drown people in blue or red clothing. As you both are already doing this story I’ll try something else…

Contract Title: Kunekune (The Twisting Thing)
Contract Briefing:
What’s that over there? Something is, twisting in the fields?
You got a scope right? Check it out. Better not be an intruder.
What do you see? Hey, you alright?
What the… Hey! Talk to me! What is that thing?!
Medic! Sound the alarm! We’re under attack!
Contract Details (targets/kill conditions/complications):
A short description of the contract (optional): This contract idea came from the urban legend “Kunekune”, a slender, white, paper or fabric-like humanoid shape twisting in the fields during hot summer days. In the original story the elder brother witnessed its true form via telescope and went insane, while some say the appearance of the “Kunekune” may be the result of confusion with traditional scarecrows, therefore I combined scarecrow disguise, Colorado map with fields and guards using telescope, and made this contract.
Suggested contract image(s) or description/idea: Could you please help make the image two guards look into the field, one using telescope, and there is something (a 47 in scarecrow or the Super Fan disguise from Italy lol) in far distance?

Contract Title: Don’t Answer
Contract Briefing:
There is an old legend: ghosts live in former industrial buildings. When these buildings are repurposed, their peace is disturbed. The ghosts lure the troublemakers with noises into quiet corners—where they can kill them. So whenever you hear a noise, don’t answer.
Contract Details (targets/kill conditions/complications):
A short description of the contract (optional): Classical sniper contract. The complications are there so you start as a biker and don’t travel too far (exit is the motorcycle in the garage). You can kill all targets with a sniper from the overpass (where you could stash your sniper).
Suggested contract image(s) or description/idea:
A short description of the contract (optional): These 4 targets have the same face.Two are thrown and two are fiber wire.This contract idea is from Junji Ito’s famous work “人头气球”(The hanging balloon).In the manga,people would be hang on by the balloon which has their own face.And if you tear the balloon,the face’s master would also be tear.By the way,I send my regards to characters in this manga.They stiil go to work and school.That is… amazing
People please remember that AI images are not allowed on Hitmanforum:
It might also be problematic for IO if these images ended up being used for the contracts as for example Steam requires to note the players if the game contains them.

Contract Title: The Grand Battle Royale
Contract Briefing:
Hello 47,
Every year Japan hosts the notorious Battle Royale Event where 42 contestants compete against each other to be the last one standing.
The contestants are brought on an island and they are given a map, supplies and a weapon. The weapon can be anything from a frying pan to an assault rifle. As there is a lot of luck only the best contestant will end up winning and will make it out, if by the end of the timer there is more than 1 person alive the survivors will be punished by death.
How does it all relate to you? There is a tradition when sometimes a guest of honor joins the game, either a past winner or a highly skilled contestant. This year it’s you, Agent 47.
I can already tell you what your weapon is, it’s in the backpack, let’s hope for a useful one, an SMG, a Pistol, even an axe could be great.
Your weapon is a… a Fiber Wire?! Oh no, THAT is not good, although I still trust you on this one.
Can I trust you to make it to the top 10?
A short description of the contract (optional):
Gameplay Wise: This is a 9 target contract in Sgail, consisting of only Fiber Wire kills and it includes a No Disguise changes (Optional) to spice it up.
The gameplay trope is that each floor has 1 target, and since Sgail has 9 floors (0th Floor to 8th Floor) I picked 9 targets.
Targets were chosen carefully to make sure they all flow well and complemented each other, in my opinion they all connect in a certain way even tho they are all very spread out.
The contract includes 6 guards and 3 civillian NPCs having a ratio of 1:3.
Out of the 5 exits this map includes I placed targets right next to 3 of them to make it easier for player, and even better, for the keep helicopter exit I place both a target right next to the exit itself and I placed another target right next to the hand flare you need to pick in order to exit.
Does this contract provide a challenge? Yes. Is it a fun challenge? Yes indeed.
Theme Wise: The horror inspiration for this contract was taken from the 2000 Japanese movie “Battle Royale” where 42 9th graders had to fight to death till one survives.
Plenty of viewers wouldn’t consider it fully horror but it’s filled with blood and gore and I could stretch it enough to bring it over to this theme.
It’s a great movie I fully recommend and I’d be glad to see it featured.
@White-peacock I know that the rules stated no modded contracts but will having 9 targets in this one invalidate my contract from being chosen?

But I tried to make a contract where you have to drown people in blue or red clothing. As you both are already doing this story I’ll try something else…
