Biography
In 1582, the Contractor and his fellow killers worked under their leader and local Templar Gaspar, who went by the cryptonym "The Architect". Pooling together their investigation, they chose influential targets around the provinces of Ōmi, Yamashiro, and Izumi Settsu to better control their respective towns and villages. Aboard a ship off the coast of Sakai, the Contractor took their research and assisted in giving out contracts to his cohorts.[1]
However, one of his co-conspirators, Rufino, a Portuguese translator, became aware of the reality of the situation and ran to his old associate and friend Tomiko at her homestead. There, he gave information about the ship near Sakai to Tomiko and her fellow Kakushiba ikki members Fujibayashi Naoe and Yasuke, who agreed to help him investigate.[1]
When Naoe and Yasuke climbed aboard the ship and destroyed the research, the Contractor saw and incapacitated Rufino, who had followed his allies. However, Naoe and Yasuke rescued Rufino and killed the Contractor and his men.[1]
From the Contractor's personal effects, they recovered a scroll containing orders from the Architect and discovered that contracts were still being sent out. As the document was marked with a red Templar cross, which Yasuke was all too familiar with, he and Naoe promised to stop the Templars' activities and save their targets while Rufino returned to the homestead.[1]
