Characteristics

The Sniper seems to be about 29-32 years old and is a bit frustrated with his parents not understanding he's a hired assassin instead of a crazed gunman. He always wears a hat and sunglasses along with a vest. He has black hair with medium sideburns, and drives around in a van.

Arsenal

Basic

• Sniper Rifle: A sniper rifle, dumbass. Used for picking off opponents from across the map
  
• SMG: Best used short-range to pick off opponents from, well, not across the map.
• Kukri: His penis machete. Used for melee attacks.

Update

• Huntsman: A bow and arrow. Replaces the Sniper Rifle, better used medium-range. Has also earned the nickname Lucksman by many an angry victim.
• Jarate: The terrifying biological weapon centered around urine in a jar. Replaces the SMG.
• Razorback: Some rather useless shield that can block a Spy's backstab for a few seconds. Replaces the SMG.

Trivia

• Despite his parents constantly misunderstanding his occupation, the Sniper frequently protects his father from the assassination attempts of Robotnik, who is jealous of The End's robotic Japanese schoolgirl of a wife.
• The Sniper once brought Yoko to the battlefield on "Bring your Mother to Work Day". She pulled off 5 headshots in a row before being knifed in the back by a Spy. Valve offered her a permanent job, as well as her own video, but they immediately took back the offer when they realized she couldn't speak English.
• Secretly admires Link which is why he has a bow, a shield and a sword. He was also reported being seen at a convention in Link's usual clothing not too long ago.
• Recently was attacked by the Spy, which led to a scar across the left side of his face from where the Spy's knife slashed him.
• His voice actor is married to the voice actor of GLaDOS's and the game's Announcer. Wonder who the kids voice act?
