In this thread, I try to gather all the “Death by Proxy” kills the whole trilogy of Hitman proposes :

It concerns every kills done by a NPC to a target. In other words, the kill isn’t performed by 47’s hands. I won’t consider the kills done by an animal (like the hippo in Santa Fortuna).

This list also concerns _“methods intended by the developers”_. The forum is full of very good players that create perfect setup to kill targets with a NPC through different things and items (I remember a setup where an explosion is triggered by the jogger and a rake in Whittleton Creek). I won’t add them.

Likewise, I won’t add situations where a target “kills himself/herself” because (s)he smokes by a leaked propane flask.

EDIT : The definition of a proxy kill is quite complicated. The actual definition is _a kill performed by another NPC_, but some kills required a NPC to be done, even if the NPC just do nothing but carrying something. After reflexion, I decided to keep the kills through poisoned food or drugs, but when a NPC is required to perform the kill. Indeed, what’s the difference between a NPC who kills unvoluntary a target through electricity or poison?

Yes, he does!  
Don’t know what triggers the doctor to go to the mansion, but it seems to be just a timed thing on Master.

I guess it depends on how far you want to stretch the definition of proxy. I’d say it’s only when some kills the target with the **intention** of killing them. But I can think of quite a few where 47 gets someone to kill (usually themselves) unknowingly

You can propose. I would propably tune the definition and sort them according to the intention (NPC intends to kill target versus unvoluntary kill).

</div>

Well I would ask if **Target unintentionally kills themselves** might be a category

The first example that jumps to mind is Ingram and Stuyvesant jumping to their deaths without the knowledge their parachutes don’t work. On one hand it’s 47’s actions that cause their deaths, but one could argue they die by their own hands. Idk, might be something 🤷‍♂️

</div>

I get the idea, but I would probably need to rename the thread, as “target that kills unintentionally himself” isn’t actually a “death by proxy” as there is no proxy between the target and 47.

I already thought about that specific kill but I don’t include it as there is no proxy… IF I include this kill, other kills will be include (notably when the target is a smoker and does his/her hait close to a gas leakage).

But it’s the same with the waiter or other NPC that carries poisoned food to target. They do nothing but carry a plate…  
Well, I’ll think about it.

</div>

I think it is fine as it is. There number of kills in the OP is limited enough, no need to shorten or split the list. 🙂 Good job!

Btw I would also include the plate-carrying waiters. It is the same as the doctor in Miami.

You can remove the “(theoretically)” text from this one, @BlobSponge, I’ve done it many times and I’m not especially good at Hitman! It’s my only SASO method for Tyson.

Not theoritically. It was part of my SASO Master difficutly strategy.

Now, what else is there… there are suicides in Nightcall and Three-Headed Serpent. If you sabotage cage mechanisms, then Zoe will voluntarily go into it and die after you start the ceremony. Oh, and Soders can be killed by nurse bringing poisoned stem cells. I do wonder if poisoning shisha pipe in AHBOS counts, since Kong invites Matthieu to smoke with him.  
And then there are NPC deaths by proxy and suicides, like the Curator, guy wanting to jump into water in Haven or Sierra killing blackmailer.

There’s the KGB colonel in The Final Test. If you turn off the power of the projector, Knight will attempt to repair it. Meanwhile the KGB officer turns on the electricity again killing the target. Of course, since this is just a simulation nobody died for real.

Probably.

Also, in Crime and Punishment you can make Khabko kill Reznikov in a fit of rage.

Yeah, first part is not necessary and it can thus be done SO.

Excellent post! This is a very cool list @BlobSponge, so thank you for making it.

I don’t have any kills to add, but I do have some minor grammar corrections for the OP. I know, pretty lame of me, but I only want to help. Apologies in advance. 🙂

1. Alexia should be spelled **Alexa.**
2. Heaven Islands should be **Haven Island.**
3. While Marrakech is an accepted spelling, Hitman uses the alternative **Marrakesh** , so I’d suggest to go with that one.
