He is a professional hitman and former top agent for the International Contract Agency (ICA), until he exposed agency information to the public, ending them permanently. His genetically engineered mind and body cause him to be considered the greatest assassin in the world. Agent 47 was created by Dr. Ort-Meyer as his 47th clone in his underground cloning laboratory, disguised under the surface appearance of a sanitarium.
His signature weapon is the chrome-finished ICA19 Silverballerhandgun. Its real-life counterpart is the AMT 1911 'Hardballer', an M1911 clone.
