Francisco Scaramanga was a British national born in a traveling circus. By the age of ten, he was part of the circus as a trick-shot pistol marksman. He was recruited there by the KGB and trained for many years. He quit the KGB in the late 1950s, becoming an independent hitman-for-hire.
Scaramanga lives very well, drawing from the exorbitant sums of money he charges to carry out his assassinations and has built his home on his own private island somewhere off the coast of south-eastern China.
Scaramanga also uses some of his wealth to finance research and development of technologies including his infamous Golden Gun, a car that transforms into an aircraft and a solar-powered laser cannon.
Having outlived his usefulness, Francisco is dispatched by Hai Fat to assassinate the scientist and recover the Solex. After meeting with his British contact at a Hong Kong club, Gibson is assassinated and his invention is stolen from the crime scene by Nick Nack. Scaramanga initially returns the device to Fat, but following James Bond's interference, he instead decides to kill his employer and take the Solex, powerplant and company for himself. With Hai Fat's assets in his possession, the assassin plans to sell Gibson's solar technology to the highest bidder - criminal or otherwise.
I hope you have just as much finding them as I did hiding them. If you find any of the caches along the way in need of attention, please message me via my GC.com profile.
