ECLIPSE Roleplay Update Notes - 1.1.1
The Hitman Update
In this update we will be introducing the Hitman Agency (as seen in the community update #1). The Hitman Agency is a sanctuary for those who have traded their souls to the devil. The Agency composes of a single director and his/her minions. Hitmen are anonymous, they are not a faction, a gang, a job, they can be anyone.
Placing a Contact
Anyone can place a contact on anyone, providing you have a valid reason and evidence to support it. To do so, you will have to SMS a Hitman in game, the number of the Agency will have to be found out in character. Once you have found your Hitman, you can meet up and discuss the details of your contract. From there you will accept or reject the terms and move on.
Onto the Hitman
In order for the contract to be processed, the Hitman must first collect information on the target, this includes the targets name, description, relationships, activities, common locations, vehicles and weapons. Then, a plan of termination must be formed. Once all this information is gathered, it is then submitted for Directors approval. The Director will then review the evidence to make sure that the server rules have been followed and that enough information has been collected to make a logical kill.
Preparing the Kill
The Director has reviewed and approved for the target to be terminated. The assigned Hitman will collect a vehicle from a random location on the map. This vehicle contains a Silenced Sniper Rifle with 10 ammo and a Silenced (regular) Pistol with 100 ammo. Before you get giddy, the sniper rifle can only be picked up, withdrawn and carried by Hitmen, so if you see one, steer clear! The Hitman will now make their way to the target location to proceed with The Plan.
The Kill
The Hitman is in position and is ready to terminate the target, they pull the trigger, the target is downed, the Hitman finishes them off. The target then wakes up in the Hospital and receives a message: "You were severely injured by the Hitman known as [Alias], your debit card was stolen and your account has been accessed, the hacker stole [10-30% of the contract amount]." If you place a contract on someone for $100k and they are terminated and the Hitmans "take" is 20%, they will lose $20k, that $20k will go to the Hitman. The original contract amount goes to the Agency for weapons and running costs. If you are the target and you manage to kill your Hitman at any point during the contract, the contract will be voided and you are safe. The person who placed the contract will not receive a refund.
