Washington Wakeman

Washington Wakeman is Westminster Wakeman's father and the sixth assassin in the Wakeman line.

History
Washington has had many relationships with many women (including a woman named Aoi, Wakkanai Wakeman's mother, and Wasselonne D'Andrezy's mother). But he only ever married one: Jane Deringer, Westminster's mother.

Washington is the Wakeman killer with the lowest amount of kills (21 in total) and the only one to date who had only ever been active in one country (France). Washington hated the title of Wakeman killer but felt like he had to do it to keep the family tradition alive. The moment Westminster made his first kill, Washington turned himself in. Viewing his incarseration as a sort of retirement.

(Other sources say that after losing Jane, the love of his life, he let himself be arrested by Dupin. His friends, who wanted to support him, turned themselves in and they were locked up in La Santé in Paris.)

His relationship with inspector C.A. Dupin IV is less close than that of Westminster and Ryunosuke. Dupin got put on Washington's case in the late '30s, after Washington killed a French politician. Dupin was known as the smartest police inspector in France and often stopped Washington's plans from succeeding. None the less, he was never actually able to catch him because, just like most Wakemans, Washington had a crew (consisting of Cornelius Wolf, Hayman Talon and Arsenio Minerva) who always helped him out.

After Westminster comes back after faking his own death, Washington escapes from prison to kill his son, who he thinks to be an imposter.
