Frank's Assassin is an unidentified character that appeared at the appartment adjacent to the Parking Garage near the Mall. He shot Frank's Helicopter from behind using an RPG, thus killing Frank's Pilot and (presumably) Frank.
When Jake Hawkfield enters the appartment to pursue the killer, the assassin displays several unusual traits witnessed by Jake and other Citizens. These traits involve high stamina, speed, and strength. During the chase he is seen busting through walls and at one point jumping through a ceiling to reach the next floor. He can even jump the height of five stories, from the building's roof down to the streets below unharmed.
If the player (Jake) were to persist chasing him to the roof of the buiding, he has the option to either kill the assailant by shooting the gas canisters on the balcony where he enters the building from, or simply let him get away. Either option leads to the same outcome and does not affect the Prologue in anyway. This may however, affects Chapter One, serving as a gain or consequence if he were to be killed or escaped.
It is currently unknown if this is a Terrorist, A.R.C. Soldier, or something more sinister.
