~ Lucas Grey's monologue to Agent 47 in the "Legacy" cutscene in HITMAN.
Tell the Constant to start running!
~ Grey's last words before taking his own life.

Subject 6, also known as the Shadow Client and Lucas Grey, is one of the two tritagonists (alongside Carlton Smith) of the Hitman video game series, serving as the tritagonist of the World of Assassination trilogy. He served as the main antagonist of HITMAN before he progressively becomes one of the two tritagonists (alongside Olivia Hall) of both HITMAN 2 and HITMAN III.

He is one of the clone assassins created by Dr. Otto Wolfgang Ort-Meyer just like Agent 47, who is his best friend. After escaping from Dr. Ort-Meyer, Lucas Grey started his private militia and manipulated the ICA to eliminate Providence, the true organization behind Dr. Ort-Meyer and his project. Upon reawakening 47's memory and revealing his true identity, Lucas worked with 47 and intended to bring down Providence.

He is voiced by John Hopkins, who also voiced Maxwell Roth in Assassin's Creed: Syndicate.

Biography[]

Backstory[]

Like Agent 47, along with Agent 17 and the No. 48s, Subject 6 is a genetically engineered clone created by Dr. Otto Wolfgang Ort-Meyer, with enhanced natural attributes, and was raised in harsh conditions. One day, he and 47 managed to escape from the place they grew up, and found themselves at a small farm in a snowy region, where they were taken in by an unnamed woman.

However, the next morning, they woke up to gunshots when their "warden" had found them, slaughtering everybody they had been in contact with, and Subject 6 and his friend were forced to watch the woman get killed. Subject 6 managed to fake his death unintentionally during the raid at the farm and escaped successfully. However, 47 was recaptured and had his mind wiped by Dr. Ort-Meyer to avoid him from discovering the existence of Providence, something which haunted 6 for life. 6 then spent his lifetime running away from Providence, eventually adopting the alias, Lucas Grey.

After 1989, Grey became a mercenary and participated in conflicts in places such as Chechnya and Sierra Leone. Years later, he used his enhanced abilities and skills to become a head of security for a banker named Eugene Cobb. For many years, Grey had been tracking Agent 47 down; knowing about his existence and his M.O, he was able to correctly link together several deaths that were either unsolved or were found to have been accidents, specifically Alvaro D'Alvade, the Beldingfords, and the Hayamotos.

Nevertheless, after he discovered that Eugene Cobb was a Providence operative, Grey realized that he cannot run forever and decided to wage a war against Providence in an act of vengeance against all they have done. After killing Cobb, Grey eventually adopted the alias of the Shadow Client and raised a private militia from outlaw rebels like Sean Rose and pirates like the Malestrom, in order to start his war against Providence operatives and eventually their mysterious leaders known as the Partners.

HITMAN[]

Grey made his first appearance by approaching Russian billionaire and fashion mogul, Viktor Novikov, primed with prior knowledge of both the FSB's investigation into Novikov and the IAGO spy ring. After having disposed of the FSB agent, Nicholai Kamarov, Grey met with Novikov again to collect his reward. In return, Novikov handed him everything that IAGO had collected about the "global elite", and they departed.

As Novikov was leaving, Grey texted an unknown associate, probably Olivia Hall, to start leaking Novikov and Dalia Margolis' names to tie up loose ends. Grey told Novikov that he has a feeling that this was going to be the show Novikov would be remembered for, insinuating that Grey knew an impending assassination was going to happen. Later, 47 had assassinated Novikov and Margolis to prevent leakage of a stolen NOC list of British undercovers at IAGO's auction, a contract that was made by Grey himself.

Later, Grey leaked information regarding an Ether-sponsored weaponized DNA-specific virus to one of the company's shareholders, who in turn asked the ICA to eliminate its two project heads; Silvio Caruso and Francesca De Santis, in addition to destroying the virus on ethical grounds, at a secret field laboratory in Sapienza, Italy.

One week after 47 eliminated Caruso and De Santis, Grey discovered the trace of Hajun, a "Herald" of Providence sent to investigate the incident, and tracked him down to Ether's headquarters in Johannesburg, where he ambushed him by hiding in the backseat of his car, keeping him at gunpoint from behind. After a brief discussion, Grey asked the businessman to hand him "the key." After Hajun reluctantly gave it to Grey, he informed that Providence would hunt Grey down and kill him. Grey only replied that they were even then before killing Hajun.

After killing Hajun, Grey leaked information regarding General Reza Zaydan's impending coup in Morocco to construction conglomerate Hamilton-Lowe, who in turn asked the ICA to eliminate the two perpetrators of the coup, Zaydan himself and Swedish banker Claus Hugo Strandberg, to protect their contracts in the country. Whilst 47 went to Marrakesh, Morocco to assassinate the duo, Grey used the keys obtained from Cobb and Hajun and broke into a secret vault in New York, obtaining information on all Providence assets and operatives there.

After 47 assassinated indie singer Jordan Cross and his family lawyer Ken Morgan at the Himmapan Hotel in Bangkok, Thailand, Grey had his private militia abduct Jordan's father, Thomas Cross, who was a reclusive media mogul and Providence operative, while the latter was attending his son's funeral. Grey killed Thomas Cross in order for his hackers to loot his offshore accounts. Grey's actions against Thomas Cross immediately drew Diana's attention, who deduced the Shadow Client was behind the recent events and contracts 47 had received, from Paris to Bangkok.

Under Diana's advice, ICA and Erich Soders sent 47 to the militia's compound in Colorado, and assassinated four significant members working for Grey. Deep inside in the private militia training site, they discovered Grey's tornado shelter within its basement, filled with maps and collections of photos regarding all Providence operatives (including the aforementioned Thomas Cross and Arthur Edwards, the current Constant of Providence). It also included the photos of some previous targets assassinated by 47, including Alvaro D'Alvade, Masahiro HayamotoWinston Beldingford and Alistair Beldingford, meaning that the Shadow Client had been focusing on 47 for quite a long time.

Most importantly, however, 47 and Diana discovered evidence that Soders had betrayed ICA and became a Providence mole. Begrudgingly, Diana then decided to take down Soders first before they could continue to deal with the Shadow Client. Afterwards, Grey watched 47 exit the compound through the scope of a sniper rifle from a nearby hill.

Grey soon contacted Olivia Hall who, wrecked with guilt, rightly assumed the ICA found the camp by tracing her, but Grey reassures her that she did well, and they shouldn't speak again until the heat dies down. As she feared for her life, Grey further comforted her by explaining his past to her. As he attempted to pull the trigger to kill 47, the latter glanced back towards Grey's position, apparently sensing his presence. Grey then took his finger off the trigger and let 47 go free, claiming that he (Grey) knew him (47) "better than anyone."

Grey eventually left the compound for India, where he'd meet with Wazir Kale, the infamous Indian South China Sea pirate known as the Maelstrom, on Maya Parvati's recommendation before her death. Grey explained his agenda to the Maelstrom and recruited him for the cause.

HITMAN 2[]

After the assassination of Alma Reynard, another major militia member and the late Sean Rose's ex-girlfriend, Agent 47 assassinates Robert Knox and Sierra Knox, who defected from Providence, under Providence's request. Meanwhile, after arriving in Berlin, Grey contacted Olivia Hall, who was in an abandoned asylum within Romania. Olivia expressed her worry that 47 now worked for Providence and was coming for Grey, but Grey assured that 47 will need to remember their friendship.

Later, Grey managed to persuade Rico Delgado, the new leader of the Delgado Drug Cartel, to join his cause in exchange of the man who murdered Rico's uncle and cousin. Then, Grey infiltrated Ether with Olivia's help, kidnapping its chief biochemist Oscar Wong and leaving him to be interrogated by Rico about Ether's neuroscience facility.

After Rico's assassination at 47's hands (just like with his uncle and cousin) in Santa Fortuna, Columbia, Grey and his militia storm Ether’s headquarters in Johannesburg, Germany, to steal a device. He also took Ether CEO Neleis De Waal hostage and took him to the abandoned asylum, and recorded a hostage tape outing the existence of Providence to the world. After that, Grey and his men released De Waal.

Following the Maelstrom's assassination at Mumbai, India, Grey stayed in the Romanian asylum and waited for 47's arrival. Grey managed to revealed his true identity and their shared past to 47, before convincing him to work together to fulfill their long-lost goal: Destroy Providence. Afterwards, Grey restored 47's memory and persuaded Diana to work with him, ordering the militia to be disbanded (unbeknownst to Grey at the time, the order was not fulfilled). After 47's memory had been restored, he remembered the person whom Ort-Meyer answered to, who punished him during his escape attempt; Janus, the retired first Constant of Providence.

After arriving at Whittleton Creek, where Janus had been residing, Grey instructed 47 to eliminate him and his head of security, Providence Herald Nolan Cassidy, before acquiring vital information they needed to locate the current Constant, Arthur Edwards. Soon, Diana and Grey had a discussion over the deaths of Diana's parents, who were killed by an unknown assassin (later revealed to be 47 himself) sent by Blue Seed Pharmaceuticals, which was also affiliated with Providence. Grey revealed that he was one of the people involved in this hit and apologized to Diana, which made her surprised and contemplating.

Afterwards, 47 infiltrated the Ark Society's annual gathering on the Isle of Sgail with Grey's assistance, as they were preparing for Janus' funeral. He assassinated their newly appointed chairwomen Zoe Washington and Sophia Washington, who had the two kill switches for a poison chip inserted in the Constant's body, before he abducted the Constant himself from the island.

In his imprisonment, the Constant betrayed the Partners and revealed the three families that led Providence, whilst the Partners faked their deaths and went into hiding, but the Constant revealed their their accounts at the Milton-Fitzpatrick bank would still be intact. Grey and 47 then went to New York towards their destination, the New York branch of the Milton-Fitzpatrick bank, which Grey once worked for. Grey sent 47 there to access to the data and eliminate its manager, Athena Savalas, who was also a Providence Herald, before leaving.

With the data acquired from the Milton-Fitzpatrick bank, Olivia discovered that the Partners paid transactions to Haven; a corporation based in the Maldives which presented itself as a reputation management service, but secretly created new identities for wealthy criminals. In order for Olivia to successfully breach Haven servers, 47 managed to infiltrate the Haven Island's HQ as a potential client and eliminated the resort's trio of owners, Tyson Williams, Steven Bradley, and Ljudmila Vetrova.

Nevertheless, once Olivia had access to Haven's files on the Partners, she discovered that the Partners' controlling shares have not been allocated to their new identities, but rather to the Constant himself, who already escaped. Later, Olivia sent information to Grey, who concealed the fact that the Constant had escaped and told 47 everything was going as planned. As they watched the upcoming storm, 47 and Grey vowed to take the entire Providence down as they make their next moves.

HITMAN III[]

After 47's exploits in New York City and Haven Island, Grey turned his attention to two targets in Ambrose Island: the new militia leader Noel Crest and the pirate Sinhi Venthan. Crest had intercepted Grey's order to disband the militia and instead took over and converted it into a ruthless mercenary group specializing in heists with no regard for collateral damage. Another focus was an ICA computer owned by Crest that could access Providence data, which Grey wanted destroyed or rendered useless. 47 completed these three assignments and moved on to the Partners.

Grey and 47 travel through Saudi Arabia to the United Arab Emirates, with Grey looking hopefully to the future once the Providence Partners were eliminated. Upon parachuting onto the Burj Al-Ghazali, they are almost struck by the propellers of a helicopter carrying Alexa Christine Carlisle. 47 lands on the building, climbs up and Grey oversees him as he assassinates Carl Ingram and Marcus Stuyvesant.

The two brothers discuss their future after they reach Dartmoor, where 47 assassinates Carlisle. However, Grey is then cornered by CICADA operatives who tell him that he can't do anything unless he kills them all at once. 47 then attempts to save Grey's life after Grey told him to get away but 47 ignored him and was about to try and save Grey's life but Grey disarms a soldier and tells 47 in disguise to "tell the constant to start running" before shooting himself in the head.

47 later hallucinates Grey while drugged. Grey assures him that Diana had not betrayed him and encourages him to wake up. This is his last appearance.

Personality[]

Similar to 47, Lucas was created to be a world class killer, and for the most part, this was a success. Exceptionally driven, committed, an unbreakable will, and exceedingly intelligent, Lucas will do whatever he has to to get the job done. He is a master of stealth, espionage, assassination and, if things go south, combat as well. Unlike 47 however, Lucas has the full range of human emotions; This includes guilt and remorse, both of which he feels strongly for the many things he's done throughout his life. This came as a shock to Diana, who commented that "Unlike him, you feel it all". He is also very soft spoken and courteous, but also harbors a somewhat bleak outlook on his own future.

To his dying breath, he was loyal to the only real friends he had, and to their goal of bringing down Providence.

Trivia[]

  • Number 6 had previously been mentioned in Hitman: Contracts and Hitman: Enemy Within as a childhood bully of 47 as well as his first kill. Here it turns out he was 47's best friend. Birth of the Hitman confirms 47's memory was altered by Ort-Meyer after Providence gets a hold of him temporarily.
