PLOT: Anton Chooze and a mafia tragedy

Tim also played Anton Chooze's uncle with questionable connections in the city mob and elite: Atri Chooze.   Years ago Atri Chooze and his brother did one of their first attempts at a hit job when they were younger. It went horribly, and Anton lost his father. Taken from Anton when he was barely old enough to speak. Atri has never forgiven himself for what that did to Anton and his Mother. When the events of The Plowden Election  occured, and Atri found himself with a sudden path to catapult his pest extermination into the league of thieves guilds that made the city go round.   Atri used this newfound money from the Harpaines and especially Duke Vayryl Harpaine to fund his nephew and sister in law for whatever they needed. He even gave Anton some funding to go into a prestigious mage hunter spell sword college program with the city. Basically a mix of wizarding school and military special training. This is where he meets Sasha's character (TO BE ADDED HERE). They share many classes together. And later in their degree's, begin to date. They are about 2.5 years into their degree at this point and very close to graduating.   However, during this time, Atri was getting involved with some very horrific figures. Sienna Harpaine is an ambition individual, and has plans to take the city by storm with her bargaining abilities. See DM ONLY - The Kidnapping of Ester Eli for her involvement. Along the way, she was directly responsible for giving Atri choose an "in" into the city's thieves guilds and assassin guilds (which are oddly heavily linked to the cities merchant guilds/families, or sometimes basically the same). Atri was there when kidnapping Ester and was on a nearby roof surveilling the streets from above with his raven familiar sight. He has also helped ensure they keep Ester moved from location to location safely inside the genie lamp. Atri will be caught in the final fight, but his raven will oddly not be present at the fight, because his Raven is the one holding the lamp at a safe distance across the city. However Atri could not bring himself to kill her. He will be hiding her safely in his house. He will then urgently message Anton before he is killed in the fight.   Atri's voice is heavily laboured and sentences come in short panicked burst.     "Anton, listen to me, I don't have much time. I'm so sorry. My job took me too deep and I've let it go too far. If I don't make it back tonight I need you to take this lantern off my desk. I need you to take this lantern as far away from the city as possible. If I don't make it back today, it could bring some dangerous mage folk to the family. It won't matter if they're from the church, the government, or claiming to be from any major guild. They will probably kill you and your mother on the spot."   *A painful yelp is heard, then the sounds of Atri performing some sort of heavy and powerful incantation"   "But make sure it gets to a safe place. Get it to another city, out of the country if you can. It cannot be tracked I think, I'm not fully sure since I'm not the one who made this thing. Good luck with the rest of your schooling kiddo. One more semester and yo- AUGH"   *Antri is heard being hit by the final blow that hits him in the Ester quest* *After a short delay, he lets out a labored cough and a chuckle.*   "You're the best of us Anton. You're gonna do great things man... And make sure you go back to that tailor's store to pick up those fantastic tailored robes man, gotta have you looking the best in the world"   Need to reword to be more relaxed. Atri believes he can get out of this in time and doesn't want to worry Anton, but he truly needs to get that magical box somewhere safely like the raven queen told him. Antonn must also not try to open it he warns. As Atri on a 16 Arcana check knows this is related to the Ester kidnapping but doesn't know the full details of how to unlock what he assumes to be a trapped chest . The actual series of sendings is much more relaxed, and will do a good job of hiding the fact DC15 Insight with Dis. for Anton to realize something is truly wrong. Will still mention he needs to stop by Courtesan Robes and Tailoring tomorrow, they've got his mantle almost ready.   This is Anton's Mantle of drip and spell resistance, and he can try to find the ruined Tailors shop that turns out to be effectively a suit store for a powerful Harper like organization. This will be a mix of basically Kingsman and John Wick in a medieval setting, Courtesan Robes and Tailoring . And they find some survivors willing to give the party shelter and Anton his tailored suit if they help them with a side quest.
