Owen Cage (also known as "The Rogue") is the secondary antagonist of the HITMAN™ campaign Patient Zero and one of Agent 47's targets in the mission Patient Zero. He is a sleeper agent of the doomsday cult "Liberation" and the developer of the Nabazov Virus.

Background[]

Owen Cage is the idealistic eco-warrior, driven to extreme measures by what he perceives to be a relentless race towards environmental collapse, driven by a cabal of high-ranked Illuminati members, and coordinated by the Elders of Zion.

He espoused his conspiracy theories under the internet name "Black Tide" on a range of internet message boards, before finally making contact with a cult, based in the Fergana region in Uzbekistan. Together with this cult he developed a plan to strike at one of the world's largest cities using a highly infectious hemorrhagic virus.

The Rogue[]

Owen Cage was originally planned to be an elusive target, "The Rogue", with an unused briefing for him being found in the games files. The reasoning behind Cage's contract is mostly the same, with his relationship with Oybek Nabazov being retained.

However, the contract originally stipulated that Cage be killed with a lethal poison injection, and for 47 to find and remove any research in the hospital on Cage's condition. Furthermore, his virus only spreads to 47 in the deleted mission.

Trivia[]

  • Encountering Owen Cage in Contracts mode does not cause him to spread the Nabazov Virus.
  • Due to him being delirious because of the Nabazov Virus, he doesn't react to any distractions and will not spot 47 doing anything illegal. He is one of the three targets in the game with this distinction, with the other being Erich Soders and Clone 3.
  • Any form of poison will kill Cage. This includes syringes, dart guns, and poison gas.
    • This also works regardless of poison, meaning emetics and sedatives will also kill Cage.
