DISGUISES
The professional seeks
anonymity on a contract,
acquiring disguises from
rooms and changing areas,
and opportunistically from
the people wearing them.
Disguises allow the professional to infiltrate and move undetected through
areas of high security. Similarly, when dressed as a worker, the professional
carries the tools of that profession and can use them as weapons without
raising suspicion. For example, as a workman the professional will carry
hammers and nail guns; as a gardener he will carry shears; and so on.
Stand near a dead or unconscious body, then press
