Anthony L. Troutt (also known as "The Congressman" and one of "The Deceivers") is an Elusive Target in the HITMAN™ mission World of Tomorrow.

Briefing[]

A decorated war hero, Troutt is a center-right conservative with a strong popularity base among moderate voters in the U.S. As such, he represents a threat to interests of both sides of the U.S. political spectrum, who believe there is more than meets the eye to his popularity.

His war record is questionable. Having served in Grenada, a great deal of his record has been redacted. But rumor has it that he was involved in a "friendly-fire" incident that left hundreds of civilians for dead and was then covered up in the aftermath of the U.S. invasion.


Troutt retired after the Grenada invasion, though he soon landed a position as CEO for CICADA, a private military company. Ever the charmer, he was much liked and within a few years, he decided to go into politics, where his "populist" speeches soon made him a favorite amongst the better to-do voters of his party. in fact, his rise seemed almost too easy, which sparked off rumors of blackmail, as his opponents rarely dared to challenge him and would often bow down and retire from politics all together. However, his true tactics are more sinister than one would imagine.

The connection between Troutt and Magee was first made 10 years ago, when Magee started to appear at his rallies. At first this seemed like a mere coincidence - Magee was a wealthy self-help guru and avid supporter of Troutt (like so many other wealthy people), but interested started to arise in their friendship, when Magee began to be shrouded in controversy concerning manipulation of his wealthy clients. Most politicians would immediately separate themselves from such controversy - but not Troutt. Though he never publicly defended Magee - he never distanced himself either. Some people have speculated whether Troutt is under Magee's "spell", but intel suggests that they are co-conspirators... Magee psychologically breaks Troutt's opponents in exchange for Troutt's political power keeping the law at bay.

Troutt is now on a current "tour" of Europe, visiting business leaders and heads of state ahead of a likely presidential bid. We have learned that he will be visiting Silvio Caruso and will be staying in the clifftop villa for at least 48 hours.

Expect him to have a dedicated security team ensuring his safety.

Description And Behavior[]

Anthony L. Troutt is found on the first floor of Villa Caruso, being taken on a tour of the mansion by a housekeeper. Inside, he will be shown around the mansion's sun room, the vista outside the sun room, the library, and the wine cellar.

While in the library, Anthony will receive a call from a journalist investigating his involvement in the invasion of Grenada. After refusing to comment, he will call his wife and tell her not to respond to the journalist, reassuring her that things will change after he wins the election. Afterwards, he will take a look at Caruso's selection of books.

While in the wine cellar, Anthony has a dedicated glass of red wine, that he will eventually drink. The glass can be poisoned to summon him to the restroom and potentially eliminate him inside.

[In Wine Cellar]

Cataldo Pisani: This is a particular gem, Congressman. A Carménère and Cabernet Franc blend. Vigorous and mutable. Quite challenging, I think you will find.

Anthony L. Troutt: Hm… Very good balance. Long and woody. My compliments to Mr. Caruso. Thank you for your input, Congressman. lam sure Mr. Caruso will appreciate it. Shall we proceed?

Trivia[]

  • Anthony L. Troutt is one of the four legacy targets that their target photo was not reused in HITMAN™ 2, along with Brendan Conner, Richard J. Magee, and Richard M. Foreman.
  • According to his trailer, Anthony was a captain in the Navy during his time in Grenada, is listed as an Independent and hopes to run for President of the United States in 2024.
    • Due to his rank being Captain by 1983, it is very likely that he served in Vietnam during his early military days.
  • His family owns an estate in Maine, that apparently has been in their possession for 100 years, which his estate is also considered as a winery.
  • He is a creationist, as he ridicules Silvio's ownership of Charles Darwin and expresses a desire to ban his books once he's President.
    • This is possibly an overlook by the developers, as that ideology is more of a far right standpoint, compared to a centre right independent with a moderate base. It is possible that he only disagrees with some of the theory’s of human evolution, and was exaggerating.
  • He also refers to the author and occultist Aleister Crowley’s work as “Hippie bullcrap.”
  • He enjoys spy thriller, and military novels, claiming you can learn a lot about a man by reading his books.
  • He has a wife named Sofia, and multiple children, which judging by how he refers to them on his phone call to his wife, are probably minors.
