Once a struggling bandit of a child, then an orphaned survivor stranded in the jungle, he is now one with the pan and axe, a well-progressed triumph over his former lives.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Appearance & Personality</div>===
:Commonly seen these days wearing what looks like a black bodysuit, though closer inspection shows a parting at the midsection and wrists, just clothing of a similar material. Over that, a purple or silver jacket, complete with tie. Outside his home, he always has a mask on, a seemingly magitek piece that he makes a lot of bold claims about, though whether those claims are true or not remains to be seen.

:During company affairs, he represents himself with a professional-looking knee-length silver coat, complete with a birdlike hood and mask combination that covers his head entirely. The Might & Magitek logo stands out proudly on his chest.

:Green eyes, black hair, and a ton of scars all over his tanned skin make up the rest of his appearance. Each scar bears it's own significance, and he'll likely tell the story if asked. His hair still retains the purple highlighting that Aurelia left as a prank, though he's since renewed the coloring, remembering a happier time. These days, he prefers to hide his scars, wearing only reserved clothing in public, even down to the fully face-covering mask. Even in friendly company, it's all or nothing--No mask or identifying clothing, to the point that he's dressed in some sort of swimwear... or the mask and full outfit.

:His experiences in the past few years have left their mark, and as a result Anton is a much more carefree individual, having decided to mostly retire from the dangerous monster hunting business... To settle down and become the tavernkeep he'd wanted to be. In this instance, it's a cafe--Not a tavern, but the end result is the same: Anton is happier, free to pursue his recipe experimentation and charity-work, and ultimately build a solid relationship with his partners.

:In all, this new life has left him so much less stressed out on a daily basis, though the addition of two students in his work retinue do throw a wrench in things... Good or bad, only time will tell.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Biography</div>===

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Early Childhood</div>====

:Reasonably unknown at present. Recent information suggests that his father was an Ala Mhigan refugee, his mother an Ul'dahn prostitute. Father disappeared, unknown causes--Assumed dead? Mother resorted to an endless routine of work to make ends meet.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Late Childhood/Teenager</div>====

:Only partially known at present. His mother became sick, almost definitely due to work habits. With his father out of the picture, Anton turned to thievery to help make money, to try and pay for medicine, but although he was able to pay off the fee for the medicine, he was required to work for the man who provided it in order to acquire it at the reduced price. Unfortunately, though, the medicine was a placebo, a fake, nothing but sugar pills--His mother died anyway. Anton tried to get revenge upon the dealer for giving him the shoddy medicine, but even more tragedy was thrown at him: His childhood girlfriend was forced to pay the price for his transgressions, first captured, then tortured to prove a point, and ultimately killed. Her death was kept a secret from Anton to try and keep him working for the dealer--Ever curious, though, Anton figured out what had happened fairly quickly, two of the dealer's thugs commenting on how one had 'gone too far'... And he left. He fled the city under the first caravan out, only revealing himself on arrival to Horizon, which gave the dealer, later, enough information to find that he had taken a boat out.

:Anton's time in La Noscea was an interesting one, starting with the cleaning crew at the Bismarck, where he was eventually promoted to acquisitions, one of the guys handling ingredient procurement, trips out to the outlying settlements to trade. During his time he learned plenty of recipes and a good amount of methodology during those years, which lead to experimentation in his private time--He even accepted lower pay in order to gain time specifically to learn more. To accommodate the lessened pay (so that he could make rent and meals) he turned back to what he had learned earlier in life: Thievery. The problem there, though, lay in the fact that there existed a ruleset for thievery in Limsa Lominsa, and Anton quickly learned what that way of life meant. His time with the rogue's guild cut into his ability to keep a steady job at the Bismarck, <i>and</i> learn about the culinary world, so he chose to abandon the former amicably, and take on more lessons in between jobs of roguery.

:He only had so long, though...

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Wilds</div>====

:The dealer had decided to expand his business out to La Noscea, and unfortunately for Anton, that meant he only had a limited amount of time before he was found out--Certainly he'd be remembered! Under cover of night, he left. Untrained as he was, though, he didn't know how to survive outside the city, and headed first for Costa Del Sol to try and gain meaningful employment as an apprentice chef out there. He was brought on as a trial, a temporary hire to see how he would do--And was found to not make the cut. From there, he ran into the jungle, the wilds, the nigh untamed greenery.

:It wasn't long before he started getting chased by the wildlife. At first it was easy, small birds and the like, but that didn't last: a coeurl had begun stalking him, and though it may have been a younger beast, and unsure of itself, it was still more than a match for the equally young knife-wielding ex-chef-learner. After two close encounters, Anton had managed to get himself up into a tree... And that was that. The coeurl was waiting, essentially starving him out, and the poor kid was sure he was dead, a goner, without any sort of reprieve.. But no, relief came in the form of a large roegadyn man, who not only dispatched the young beast with style, but helped Anton get down without breaking anything, and fed him nonetheless.

:The roegadyn called himself Inquisitive Mentor, and after listening to Anton's story, he took the young man home with him, a tribe--clan? Group? Tiny village? of other roegadyn up further into the jungle, into the mountains. There, for what felt like years, he stayed with them, learning how to survive in the wilds, how to distinguish between medicinal and poisonous plants, and most importantly, how to fight. He'd seen the gladiators fight, even tried to learn how to use a shield, not that it stuck with him. He could use those knives of his, but that wasn't exactly a great weapon against larger beasties that lived in the wilds of La Noscea. Anton was paired up with Mentor's son, Knotted Iron, as he was the best fit as a training partner for the hyur, being a smaller stature, younger roegadyn. They trained extensively on archery and axework, and the midlander even made an effort to show off how to use a shield... But it wasn't exactly a professional quality demonstration.

:Knotted Iron and Anton became fast friends, and regularly went on forays out into the wilds together, both to explore, to learn about the surrounding area, and to hunt. It was on one of these trips that they returned to the village... Only to find that it had been ransacked. No survivors that they could find, and anything that hadn't been taken was trashed, burnt and destroyed beyond any chance of recovery. Anton's time with the rogues suggested it was a band of pirates, and the village was near a river, with tracks leading to and from... But not who the pirates were.

:The only survivor they definitively knew about was Iron's father, Mentor, who had gone on one of his regular trips far out across the world, and was not due to return for over a month yet. They didn't know where he'd gone, but prior to leaving the big man had expressed interest in two areas: Kugane, in the Far East... And the Cataclysm damage site known as the Burning Wall. The two decided to split up, try and find Mentor to inform him of what had happened with Iron heading to the Far East, and Anton to Thanalan, as he already knew the area there. Anton... Did not mention his past to Iron, and had in fact figured he'd be mostly forgotten on his return there, given the time that had passed them by.
====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">The Return to Thanalan</div>====

:Anton's first stop on his arrival back in Vesper Bay was to pick up supplies and a chocobo, putting his thievery skills to great use amongst the denizens of the small town to quickly and quietly secure himself passage up to the Burning Wall... But there was no mention, not even a whisper, of Mentor having come through there. Disappointed, Anton headed back to Ul'dah to see about finding himself any more information. Instead, he found himself more misfortune: The dealer did indeed remember him. He was taken, tortured and... Once more, turned into a worker for the deranged lalafell. Anton didn't know any better, and was still afraid of the little man and his crew. He worked as a thug now, a debt collector, a thief, and on occasion.. A hitman. On more than one occasion, he ran into a mischevious miqo'te thief, but never got a name out of her, but over time her pranks helped break his conditioning to the lalafell, and when the dealer found that he'd been trading sugar cubes for scant conversation, Anton was brought back in for further breaking.

:All Anton remembers of that time is a quantity of body parts, blood everywhere, and the definitive, unquestionable knowledge that the dealer and his two main officers were dead.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Recent Past</div>====

:Turns out, that the thief had a name: [[Tikka Swift]]. After his final incident with the dealer, she pulled yet another prank on him, an attempt to steal his sword. She stuck around for an actual conversation this time, and in the end, invited Anton to join her free company, the Radical Dreamers. A name that assuredly makes not a lick of sense to him, but he didn't particularly care--He gained friends there. He gained family there. His experience with the dealer killed what memory he had of his prior life, and he fully embraced his new one. He worked as a melee instructor and chef for the most part, occasionally playing nursemaid to those with only superficial wounds when the true medical heroes, such as his adoptive sister, [[Kiipa Nulstat]], were busy. He regularly clashed with [[Gen Quickpaw]], the leader of the company.. Generally over matters of simple nature, yet unable to come to a simple conclusion. One minor facet that he enjoyed, though not an official position, is his job of wrangling the new folks in for a drink and an introduction. Between cooking and tending bar, treating wounds, and teaching, he was a regular in most walks of the estate life.

:He managed to gather himself up a girlfriend. This, unfortunately, didn't last nearly as long as anyone was hoping--Even bystanders had high hopes for the two, [[Misha Jinhri]] and Anton, but after only a month, Misha left on a quest of soul-searching, to find herself. When she came back, things had changed... And the two, while remaining pleasant friends, were no longer a couple as a result of the findings of that journey, and the time apart. His love-life has remained relatively shattered from then on, progressing onto a helpless puppy love over his best friend, to constant flings with folks from around the company and his side job with the Obsidian Coterie. He thought he'd found something in his boss, [[Sumari Polaali]], but that had turned south when she refused to believe that she could ever come out from under the shadow that Kiipa left.

:He'd tried to mend fences with any number of previous relationships, even trying his damndest to love the smith, [[Katja Hoax]], the person who helped keep him steady after Kiipa abandoned him.. But it was all for naught. His friendships had dwindled to a shadow of what they were, as had his romantic relationships.. His sister barely gave him the time of day, though her daughter, [[Inelaa Locte]] seemed to adore him.. In all of this, he managed to find a blooming flower of a girlfriend in [[Suna Rokuyari]], all by telling her to not take drugs from strangers..

:He was distraught when his sister fell ill, and pledged himself to doing anything and everything he could to find a way to free her from the voidsent infesting her body, but in the end, he felt helpless, and relegated himself to instead making sure her family, his nieces and nephews, were well taken care of.

:Multiple incidents related to his poor manners Anton was fired from the company, now known as Might and Magitek, and was left in a momentary lurch. He turned to sleeping in dark street corners, hunting larger and larger beasts to keep his mind off of life in general. Over time, [[Aurelia Aerowind]] the tiny cake-gobbling Au Ra murderlizard he'd met during an incident where he had to protect a student from a crazed swordswoman, dragged him to her friends.. And her friends brought him into their company. As a whole, those friends shoved Aurelia and Anton together as a couple rather hastily. During this time he still regularly visited his sister, sneaking around her guardian when necessary... But it did not last much longer, the sleeping sister or the relationship with Aurelia. Happily, Kiipa woke up, though a vastly changed person... And less happily, Anton and Aurelia broke things off. Neither of them were ready for a relationship.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Present</div>====

:For a while, Anton wandered from place to place, generally serving as an odd-job chef for people, a cook on the go. There was an attempt made to run a moogle-themed bar with some friends, but it didn't pan out very well. He kept up his martial teaching lessons, and one such student came back to bite him--In a good way. [[Lune Vormold]], the avid lance learner he'd taken on so long ago, who'd kept up with her lessons non-stop, decided that she wanted to go on a date with Anton, and from there a happy relationship blossomed and still, to this day, kept growing--He'd even proposed to her. At the moment, she was still stuck under contract with her job, but... Things change. With the money he'd made he eventually managed to establish a home of his own near the beach in the Mist, originally intending it just as a place to live, for him and Lune. An executive decision was made after some time, and he turned his new home into his own place: A cafe on the top level, with hidden living quarters underneath for himself. The cafe was originally established as 'Born to Hold Eatery'... But before it's doors even opened for the first time, while he was offering lessons out of his home still, an old acquaintance showed up at his door.

:[[Emmette Stringers]], the person who'd hired him to work for the Obsidian Coterie, once upon a time.. And then, subsequently, fired him without any sort of proper cause, only to offer his assistant at the time his job.. And then some. That's who was now just inside his home, asking about cooking lessons. They had a long talk, but eventually came to an agreement: Yes, he would teach her, but he was <i>not</i> going to go easy on her. He didn't think she'd take the lessons seriously, and figured he'd get rid of her that way.

:He was wrong. She not only took to those lessons seriously, she signed on to be his assistant at the newly branded Purple Pom Parlour cafe. Anton's luck was moving on up in the world. To compound things, the prior executive's demeanor had changed dramatically. She was a bountiful source of happiness, and flirted heavily with Anton regularly, to the point that issues arose between her and Lune... Only to be settled by the latter deciding that, if things were going to be like that, she would share.. But only with Emmette.

:Of course, as yet, nothing has come of that but ridiculous teasing and flirting, as Emmette was now engaged to one [[Ramius Raske]].

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> [[Lune Vormold]] : One of the most dutiful of his students, she still trains with Anton regularly--But he does not consider her a trainee anymore, instead a friend... And then some, given that he's since proposed to her at least once, and has stolen her away on many dates. Stolen indeed, as she was still under contract with the boss that had originally sent her off to Anton for training, the same boss who was oh-so-very strict about her whereabouts... Not that Anton cared, as he regularly kidnapped her off the manor grounds, an agreement in place with the head of the guard core hired to that building. Occasionally, Lune even works at the P3 cafe to help him out.

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> [[Emmette Stringers]] : Once upon a time, he worked for her as a temporary chef to get her culinary house in order. She fired him after a month, citing his inability to accomplish anything or even show up as her reasoning, when in reality he had worked with her company just about every day to get things in order, even going so far as to plan out and teach an entire new menu line that more fit the skills of her chef. After some time, the tables turned, and she came to Anton seeking, ironically, culinary instruction. She'd lost her company and her demeanor had changed to a much more meek individual.. At least at first. Over time, the two grew rather close, enough to threaten a hazard in his romantic life with Lune... But the lovely little spearwoman offered to share Anton with Emmette if it came to that. At current, no such thing has, but Emmette still works at the P3 cafe as Anton's assistant.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Kiipa Nulstat]] : The woman who's done so much to help Anton live a fulfilling life, and the one who he always feels the burning need to make proud. She was his sister, not by blood but by choice--And he loved her fiercely, knowing full well that if ever there came a time where a choice had to be made, her life or his, he'd not hesitate to keep her safe until his end.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Aurelia Aerowind]] : The little lady who kept him sane after he lost his job with the Radical Dreamers, they met in a bar, working together to take down a particularly murderous swordswoman... And were pushed together as a couple recently by one of Aurelia's friends, [[Mayuri Kotonoha]]. They dated for a while, but mutually decided that they weren't fit for each other, though Anton very much adores her still, the angry little cake-monster that she is.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Suna Rokuyari]] : All he'd said was that she shouldn't take drugs from strangers, no matter what they said the drugs could do. The side-effects could be terrifying... And sure enough, they were. The little lizard girl came to visit Anton at the Dreamer estate regularly afterward, eventually signing on as his assistant in chefliness... And from there, his lover. The relationship did not last long, unfortunately, as she felt that he deserved better than she could offer--But they are still great friends, nonetheless.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Attika Nianu]] : Attika was Anton's star student--Whether that's because she was the only one that stuck around, or because she actually does a good job controlling herself, who knows. She has since traveled to Ishgard and back, occasionally studying with Anton on further combat techniques.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Inelaa Locte]] : At first, she was just the target of his retrieval mission into the Shroud. As he started adding things up, though, it became more and more clear.. Inelaa was Kiipa's daughter. Being that Kiipa had adopted Anton as her brother, that made Inelaa his niece.. And he hasn't taken a single moment extra to start showering her in gifts, ranging from giant stuffed animals to clothing and a book on combat arts--Specifically, around archery. The teenager has done a ton for his self-esteem, and has on her own proven that she's already enough of a woman to handle a crowd of horny people at a poetry slam! She's even surprised him with her skill at entertaining, performing a monster-class spooky song to a large crowd of onlookers with ease... And apparently, now has children!

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Sumari Polaali]] : She was, and still is, his boss. For a while, they had a romantic thing going on, until she couldn't take it anymore and.. Basically bailed out of it. He wanted to keep things going, but she couldn't believe that Anton would ever love anyone aside from Kiipa, and so couldn't handle the relationship. He gave her time, and tried again months later, but though she was momentarily receptive, it was not to be.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Tikka Swift]] : The mischievous little brat who'd essentially saved his life, through and through again so early on. He became a reliable source of sugar cubes for her, and joined her free company when she invited him in. As far as he's concerned, if anything ever happened to her or any of her gaggle of children, he'd go on a rampage. Initially, after that original invitation, he considered an attempt at a relationship of sorts with her, but decided against it rather quickly, understanding just how young she was in actuality, and what her life was like--He didn't want to add to the complications.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Katja Hoax]] : Once upon a time, they fucked like bunnies over a contract deal. That broke, as did their relationship afterward--One that Anton tried hard to mend after he realized his errors. He failed in that endeavour, his own mind messing him up time and time again... She has since found herself in a relationship with a dragoon from Ishgard, who he has great respect for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Gen Quickpaw]] : Gen was one of Anton's favorite people to have around. He respected the man, even with as much shit as they threw at each other--He's now Kiipa's side-man, though it's more seeming like she's just been absorbed into Gen's family all in all. Gen is, for all intents and purposes a brother-in-law of sorts, being Kiipa's lover... And over time, Anton and he have figured things out between themselves, and are.. Friends, though not exactly best of.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Tallera Weaver]] : Crazy voodoo sorceress. Anton ran across her one day, and since then, every time they meet up, somethin' crazy happens--Or they count the whores inside the Quicksand. One or the other. She seems fair convinced that she's a zombie, but he's not convinced--He does know, however, that she /really/ likes watching the stars. Of course, this became quite a bit more clear when he realized that the woman was, in fact, an Ishgardian Astrologian--A star-mancer-mage-wizard. He's got quite a bit of respect for the girl, and what she's been able to pull off, lately. On top of all that, he now works with the crazy woman as his side job, hunting down exotic beasties for parts--And in turn, he hires her for jobs regarding more magical skill.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Misha Jinhri]] : Misha, Misha, Misha. They met as a result of Tikka jumping off a balcony and Anton following her, but they hit it off easily. And, with Leif dodging out of getting a drink with the three of them, they realized that they clicked fairly well... So, they went on a date. And then another one. And decided that, regardless of how fast they were or weren't going, they'd try their hand at being a couple. It didn't work out, but the two are still friends. Or.. They were, anyway. After a long stretch of nothing but disrespect, he's not sure what to do with her anymore.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Felix Cyprus]] : One of the first people he met in the Dreamers. A stoic guardsman, now turned.. Stoic fistfighter? He wasn't sure what to make of the tall, dark, and lovely man at times, but he did try to call the man a friend.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Sarantuya Avagnar]] : Generally solemn, but inquisitive Au Ra lady who regularly sampled the crazy recipes Anton produced from the FC kitchen. Lengthy conversations about the world and what was in it.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Jeros Redd]] : Jeros. Technically? Jeros was his superior in terms of both free and grand company. Anton worked with the Maelstrom--So did Jeros, only for much longer. Same, too, with the Dreamers. Nonetheless, Jeros is helping to get the big guy back into fighting shape, after a nasty run-in with a particularly devastating voidsent. Indeed, they very much teach each other. Recently, he's been helping the man put together his past, and helping him unfold his future as a trainee armorer.

: <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Runa Sweet]] : After some time without a trainee, Anton happened upon Runa at a beach party for Emmette's company.. And, one thing lead in to another, and the company leader essentially asked him to help teach Runa how to swing a sword, and perhaps get some finesse training while he was at it. Runa, as it was, seemed to be an attentive student and followed direction with minimal question... So far.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Appearance & Personality</div>===
:Commonly seen these days wearing what looks like a black bodysuit, though closer inspection shows a parting at the midsection and wrists, just clothing of a similar material. Over that, a purple or silver jacket, complete with tie. Outside his home, he always has a mask on, a seemingly magitek piece that he makes a lot of bold claims about, though whether those claims are true or not remains to be seen.

:During company affairs, he represents himself with a professional-looking knee-length silver coat, complete with a birdlike hood and mask combination that covers his head entirely. The Might & Magitek logo stands out proudly on his chest.

:Green eyes, black hair, and a ton of scars all over his tanned skin make up the rest of his appearance. Each scar bears it's own significance, and he'll likely tell the story if asked. His hair still retains the purple highlighting that Aurelia left as a prank, though he's since renewed the coloring, remembering a happier time. These days, he prefers to hide his scars, wearing only reserved clothing in public, even down to the fully face-covering mask. Even in friendly company, it's all or nothing--No mask or identifying clothing, to the point that he's dressed in some sort of swimwear... or the mask and full outfit.

:His experiences in the past few years have left their mark, and as a result Anton is a much more carefree individual, having decided to mostly retire from the dangerous monster hunting business... To settle down and become the tavernkeep he'd wanted to be. In this instance, it's a cafe--Not a tavern, but the end result is the same: Anton is happier, free to pursue his recipe experimentation and charity-work, and ultimately build a solid relationship with his partners.

:In all, this new life has left him so much less stressed out on a daily basis, though the addition of two students in his work retinue do throw a wrench in things... Good or bad, only time will tell.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Biography</div>===

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Early Childhood</div>====

:Reasonably unknown at present. Recent information suggests that his father was an Ala Mhigan refugee, his mother an Ul'dahn prostitute. Father disappeared, unknown causes--Assumed dead? Mother resorted to an endless routine of work to make ends meet.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Late Childhood/Teenager</div>====

:Only partially known at present. His mother became sick, almost definitely due to work habits. With his father out of the picture, Anton turned to thievery to help make money, to try and pay for medicine, but although he was able to pay off the fee for the medicine, he was required to work for the man who provided it in order to acquire it at the reduced price. Unfortunately, though, the medicine was a placebo, a fake, nothing but sugar pills--His mother died anyway. Anton tried to get revenge upon the dealer for giving him the shoddy medicine, but even more tragedy was thrown at him: His childhood girlfriend was forced to pay the price for his transgressions, first captured, then tortured to prove a point, and ultimately killed. Her death was kept a secret from Anton to try and keep him working for the dealer--Ever curious, though, Anton figured out what had happened fairly quickly, two of the dealer's thugs commenting on how one had 'gone too far'... And he left. He fled the city under the first caravan out, only revealing himself on arrival to Horizon, which gave the dealer, later, enough information to find that he had taken a boat out.

:Anton's time in La Noscea was an interesting one, starting with the cleaning crew at the Bismarck, where he was eventually promoted to acquisitions, one of the guys handling ingredient procurement, trips out to the outlying settlements to trade. During his time he learned plenty of recipes and a good amount of methodology during those years, which lead to experimentation in his private time--He even accepted lower pay in order to gain time specifically to learn more. To accommodate the lessened pay (so that he could make rent and meals) he turned back to what he had learned earlier in life: Thievery. The problem there, though, lay in the fact that there existed a ruleset for thievery in Limsa Lominsa, and Anton quickly learned what that way of life meant. His time with the rogue's guild cut into his ability to keep a steady job at the Bismarck, <i>and</i> learn about the culinary world, so he chose to abandon the former amicably, and take on more lessons in between jobs of roguery.

:He only had so long, though...

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Wilds</div>====

:The dealer had decided to expand his business out to La Noscea, and unfortunately for Anton, that meant he only had a limited amount of time before he was found out--Certainly he'd be remembered! Under cover of night, he left. Untrained as he was, though, he didn't know how to survive outside the city, and headed first for Costa Del Sol to try and gain meaningful employment as an apprentice chef out there. He was brought on as a trial, a temporary hire to see how he would do--And was found to not make the cut. From there, he ran into the jungle, the wilds, the nigh untamed greenery.

:It wasn't long before he started getting chased by the wildlife. At first it was easy, small birds and the like, but that didn't last: a coeurl had begun stalking him, and though it may have been a younger beast, and unsure of itself, it was still more than a match for the equally young knife-wielding ex-chef-learner. After two close encounters, Anton had managed to get himself up into a tree... And that was that. The coeurl was waiting, essentially starving him out, and the poor kid was sure he was dead, a goner, without any sort of reprieve.. But no, relief came in the form of a large roegadyn man, who not only dispatched the young beast with style, but helped Anton get down without breaking anything, and fed him nonetheless.

:The roegadyn called himself Inquisitive Mentor, and after listening to Anton's story, he took the young man home with him, a tribe--clan? Group? Tiny village? of other roegadyn up further into the jungle, into the mountains. There, for what felt like years, he stayed with them, learning how to survive in the wilds, how to distinguish between medicinal and poisonous plants, and most importantly, how to fight. He'd seen the gladiators fight, even tried to learn how to use a shield, not that it stuck with him. He could use those knives of his, but that wasn't exactly a great weapon against larger beasties that lived in the wilds of La Noscea. Anton was paired up with Mentor's son, Knotted Iron, as he was the best fit as a training partner for the hyur, being a smaller stature, younger roegadyn. They trained extensively on archery and axework, and the midlander even made an effort to show off how to use a shield... But it wasn't exactly a professional quality demonstration.

:Knotted Iron and Anton became fast friends, and regularly went on forays out into the wilds together, both to explore, to learn about the surrounding area, and to hunt. It was on one of these trips that they returned to the village... Only to find that it had been ransacked. No survivors that they could find, and anything that hadn't been taken was trashed, burnt and destroyed beyond any chance of recovery. Anton's time with the rogues suggested it was a band of pirates, and the village was near a river, with tracks leading to and from... But not who the pirates were.

:The only survivor they definitively knew about was Iron's father, Mentor, who had gone on one of his regular trips far out across the world, and was not due to return for over a month yet. They didn't know where he'd gone, but prior to leaving the big man had expressed interest in two areas: Kugane, in the Far East... And the Cataclysm damage site known as the Burning Wall. The two decided to split up, try and find Mentor to inform him of what had happened with Iron heading to the Far East, and Anton to Thanalan, as he already knew the area there. Anton... Did not mention his past to Iron, and had in fact figured he'd be mostly forgotten on his return there, given the time that had passed them by.
====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">The Return to Thanalan</div>====

:Anton's first stop on his arrival back in Vesper Bay was to pick up supplies and a chocobo, putting his thievery skills to great use amongst the denizens of the small town to quickly and quietly secure himself passage up to the Burning Wall... But there was no mention, not even a whisper, of Mentor having come through there. Disappointed, Anton headed back to Ul'dah to see about finding himself any more information. Instead, he found himself more misfortune: The dealer did indeed remember him. He was taken, tortured and... Once more, turned into a worker for the deranged lalafell. Anton didn't know any better, and was still afraid of the little man and his crew. He worked as a thug now, a debt collector, a thief, and on occasion.. A hitman. On more than one occasion, he ran into a mischevious miqo'te thief, but never got a name out of her, but over time her pranks helped break his conditioning to the lalafell, and when the dealer found that he'd been trading sugar cubes for scant conversation, Anton was brought back in for further breaking.

:All Anton remembers of that time is a quantity of body parts, blood everywhere, and the definitive, unquestionable knowledge that the dealer and his two main officers were dead.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Recent Past</div>====

:Turns out, that the thief had a name: [[Tikka Swift]]. After his final incident with the dealer, she pulled yet another prank on him, an attempt to steal his sword. She stuck around for an actual conversation this time, and in the end, invited Anton to join her free company, the Radical Dreamers. A name that assuredly makes not a lick of sense to him, but he didn't particularly care--He gained friends there. He gained family there. His experience with the dealer killed what memory he had of his prior life, and he fully embraced his new one. He worked as a melee instructor and chef for the most part, occasionally playing nursemaid to those with only superficial wounds when the true medical heroes, such as his adoptive sister, [[Kiipa Nulstat]], were busy. He regularly clashed with [[Gen Quickpaw]], the leader of the company.. Generally over matters of simple nature, yet unable to come to a simple conclusion. One minor facet that he enjoyed, though not an official position, is his job of wrangling the new folks in for a drink and an introduction. Between cooking and tending bar, treating wounds, and teaching, he was a regular in most walks of the estate life.

:He managed to gather himself up a girlfriend. This, unfortunately, didn't last nearly as long as anyone was hoping--Even bystanders had high hopes for the two, [[Misha Jinhri]] and Anton, but after only a month, Misha left on a quest of soul-searching, to find herself. When she came back, things had changed... And the two, while remaining pleasant friends, were no longer a couple as a result of the findings of that journey, and the time apart. His love-life has remained relatively shattered from then on, progressing onto a helpless puppy love over his best friend, to constant flings with folks from around the company and his side job with the Obsidian Coterie. He thought he'd found something in his boss, [[Sumari Polaali]], but that had turned south when she refused to believe that she could ever come out from under the shadow that Kiipa left.

:He'd tried to mend fences with any number of previous relationships, even trying his damndest to love the smith, [[Katja Hoax]], the person who helped keep him steady after Kiipa abandoned him.. But it was all for naught. His friendships had dwindled to a shadow of what they were, as had his romantic relationships.. His sister barely gave him the time of day, though her daughter, [[Inelaa Locte]] seemed to adore him.. In all of this, he managed to find a blooming flower of a girlfriend in [[Suna Rokuyari]], all by telling her to not take drugs from strangers..

:He was distraught when his sister fell ill, and pledged himself to doing anything and everything he could to find a way to free her from the voidsent infesting her body, but in the end, he felt helpless, and relegated himself to instead making sure her family, his nieces and nephews, were well taken care of.

:Multiple incidents related to his poor manners Anton was fired from the company, now known as Might and Magitek, and was left in a momentary lurch. He turned to sleeping in dark street corners, hunting larger and larger beasts to keep his mind off of life in general. Over time, [[Aurelia Aerowind]] the tiny cake-gobbling Au Ra murderlizard he'd met during an incident where he had to protect a student from a crazed swordswoman, dragged him to her friends.. And her friends brought him into their company. As a whole, those friends shoved Aurelia and Anton together as a couple rather hastily. During this time he still regularly visited his sister, sneaking around her guardian when necessary... But it did not last much longer, the sleeping sister or the relationship with Aurelia. Happily, Kiipa woke up, though a vastly changed person... And less happily, Anton and Aurelia broke things off. Neither of them were ready for a relationship.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Present</div>====

:For a while, Anton wandered from place to place, generally serving as an odd-job chef for people, a cook on the go. There was an attempt made to run a moogle-themed bar with some friends, but it didn't pan out very well. He kept up his martial teaching lessons, and one such student came back to bite him--In a good way. [[Lune Vormold]], the avid lance learner he'd taken on so long ago, who'd kept up with her lessons non-stop, decided that she wanted to go on a date with Anton, and from there a happy relationship blossomed and still, to this day, kept growing--He'd even proposed to her. At the moment, she was still stuck under contract with her job, but... Things change. With the money he'd made he eventually managed to establish a home of his own near the beach in the Mist, originally intending it just as a place to live, for him and Lune. An executive decision was made after some time, and he turned his new home into his own place: A cafe on the top level, with hidden living quarters underneath for himself. The cafe was originally established as 'Born to Hold Eatery'... But before it's doors even opened for the first time, while he was offering lessons out of his home still, an old acquaintance showed up at his door.

:[[Emmette Stringers]], the person who'd hired him to work for the Obsidian Coterie, once upon a time.. And then, subsequently, fired him without any sort of proper cause, only to offer his assistant at the time his job.. And then some. That's who was now just inside his home, asking about cooking lessons. They had a long talk, but eventually came to an agreement: Yes, he would teach her, but he was <i>not</i> going to go easy on her. He didn't think she'd take the lessons seriously, and figured he'd get rid of her that way.

:He was wrong. She not only took to those lessons seriously, she signed on to be his assistant at the newly branded Purple Pom Parlour cafe. Anton's luck was moving on up in the world. To compound things, the prior executive's demeanor had changed dramatically. She was a bountiful source of happiness, and flirted heavily with Anton regularly, to the point that issues arose between her and Lune... Only to be settled by the latter deciding that, if things were going to be like that, she would share.. But only with Emmette.

:Of course, as yet, nothing has come of that but ridiculous teasing and flirting, as Emmette was now engaged to one [[Ramius Raske]].

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> [[Lune Vormold]] : One of the most dutiful of his students, she still trains with Anton regularly--But he does not consider her a trainee anymore, instead a friend... And then some, given that he's since proposed to her at least once, and has stolen her away on many dates. Stolen indeed, as she was still under contract with the boss that had originally sent her off to Anton for training, the same boss who was oh-so-very strict about her whereabouts... Not that Anton cared, as he regularly kidnapped her off the manor grounds, an agreement in place with the head of the guard core hired to that building. Occasionally, Lune even works at the P3 cafe to help him out.

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> [[Emmette Stringers]] : Once upon a time, he worked for her as a temporary chef to get her culinary house in order. She fired him after a month, citing his inability to accomplish anything or even show up as her reasoning, when in reality he had worked with her company just about every day to get things in order, even going so far as to plan out and teach an entire new menu line that more fit the skills of her chef. After some time, the tables turned, and she came to Anton seeking, ironically, culinary instruction. She'd lost her company and her demeanor had changed to a much more meek individual.. At least at first. Over time, the two grew rather close, enough to threaten a hazard in his romantic life with Lune... But the lovely little spearwoman offered to share Anton with Emmette if it came to that. At current, no such thing has, but Emmette still works at the P3 cafe as Anton's assistant.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Kiipa Nulstat]] : The woman who's done so much to help Anton live a fulfilling life, and the one who he always feels the burning need to make proud. She was his sister, not by blood but by choice--And he loved her fiercely, knowing full well that if ever there came a time where a choice had to be made, her life or his, he'd not hesitate to keep her safe until his end.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Aurelia Aerowind]] : The little lady who kept him sane after he lost his job with the Radical Dreamers, they met in a bar, working together to take down a particularly murderous swordswoman... And were pushed together as a couple recently by one of Aurelia's friends, [[Mayuri Kotonoha]]. They dated for a while, but mutually decided that they weren't fit for each other, though Anton very much adores her still, the angry little cake-monster that she is.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Suna Rokuyari]] : All he'd said was that she shouldn't take drugs from strangers, no matter what they said the drugs could do. The side-effects could be terrifying... And sure enough, they were. The little lizard girl came to visit Anton at the Dreamer estate regularly afterward, eventually signing on as his assistant in chefliness... And from there, his lover. The relationship did not last long, unfortunately, as she felt that he deserved better than she could offer--But they are still great friends, nonetheless.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Attika Nianu]] : Attika was Anton's star student--Whether that's because she was the only one that stuck around, or because she actually does a good job controlling herself, who knows. She has since traveled to Ishgard and back, occasionally studying with Anton on further combat techniques.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Inelaa Locte]] : At first, she was just the target of his retrieval mission into the Shroud. As he started adding things up, though, it became more and more clear.. Inelaa was Kiipa's daughter. Being that Kiipa had adopted Anton as her brother, that made Inelaa his niece.. And he hasn't taken a single moment extra to start showering her in gifts, ranging from giant stuffed animals to clothing and a book on combat arts--Specifically, around archery. The teenager has done a ton for his self-esteem, and has on her own proven that she's already enough of a woman to handle a crowd of horny people at a poetry slam! She's even surprised him with her skill at entertaining, performing a monster-class spooky song to a large crowd of onlookers with ease... And apparently, now has children!

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Sumari Polaali]] : She was, and still is, his boss. For a while, they had a romantic thing going on, until she couldn't take it anymore and.. Basically bailed out of it. He wanted to keep things going, but she couldn't believe that Anton would ever love anyone aside from Kiipa, and so couldn't handle the relationship. He gave her time, and tried again months later, but though she was momentarily receptive, it was not to be.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Tikka Swift]] : The mischievous little brat who'd essentially saved his life, through and through again so early on. He became a reliable source of sugar cubes for her, and joined her free company when she invited him in. As far as he's concerned, if anything ever happened to her or any of her gaggle of children, he'd go on a rampage. Initially, after that original invitation, he considered an attempt at a relationship of sorts with her, but decided against it rather quickly, understanding just how young she was in actuality, and what her life was like--He didn't want to add to the complications.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Katja Hoax]] : Once upon a time, they fucked like bunnies over a contract deal. That broke, as did their relationship afterward--One that Anton tried hard to mend after he realized his errors. He failed in that endeavour, his own mind messing him up time and time again... She has since found herself in a relationship with a dragoon from Ishgard, who he has great respect for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Gen Quickpaw]] : Gen was one of Anton's favorite people to have around. He respected the man, even with as much shit as they threw at each other--He's now Kiipa's side-man, though it's more seeming like she's just been absorbed into Gen's family all in all. Gen is, for all intents and purposes a brother-in-law of sorts, being Kiipa's lover... And over time, Anton and he have figured things out between themselves, and are.. Friends, though not exactly best of.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Tallera Weaver]] : Crazy voodoo sorceress. Anton ran across her one day, and since then, every time they meet up, somethin' crazy happens--Or they count the whores inside the Quicksand. One or the other. She seems fair convinced that she's a zombie, but he's not convinced--He does know, however, that she /really/ likes watching the stars. Of course, this became quite a bit more clear when he realized that the woman was, in fact, an Ishgardian Astrologian--A star-mancer-mage-wizard. He's got quite a bit of respect for the girl, and what she's been able to pull off, lately. On top of all that, he now works with the crazy woman as his side job, hunting down exotic beasties for parts--And in turn, he hires her for jobs regarding more magical skill.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Misha Jinhri]] : Misha, Misha, Misha. They met as a result of Tikka jumping off a balcony and Anton following her, but they hit it off easily. And, with Leif dodging out of getting a drink with the three of them, they realized that they clicked fairly well... So, they went on a date. And then another one. And decided that, regardless of how fast they were or weren't going, they'd try their hand at being a couple. It didn't work out, but the two are still friends. Or.. They were, anyway. After a long stretch of nothing but disrespect, he's not sure what to do with her anymore.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Felix Cyprus]] : One of the first people he met in the Dreamers. A stoic guardsman, now turned.. Stoic fistfighter? He wasn't sure what to make of the tall, dark, and lovely man at times, but he did try to call the man a friend.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Jeros Redd]] : Jeros. Technically? Jeros was his superior in terms of both free and grand company. Anton worked with the Maelstrom--So did Jeros, only for much longer. Same, too, with the Dreamers. Nonetheless, Jeros is helping to get the big guy back into fighting shape, after a nasty run-in with a particularly devastating voidsent. Indeed, they very much teach each other. Recently, he's been helping the man put together his past, and helping him unfold his future as a trainee armorer.

: <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Runa Sweet]] : After some time without a trainee, Anton happened upon Runa at a beach party for Emmette's company.. And, one thing lead in to another, and the company leader essentially asked him to help teach Runa how to swing a sword, and perhaps get some finesse training while he was at it. Runa, as it was, seemed to be an attentive student and followed direction with minimal question... So far.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Appearance & Personality</div>===
:Commonly seen these days wearing what looks like a black bodysuit, though closer inspection shows a parting at the midsection and wrists, just clothing of a similar material. Over that, a purple or silver jacket, complete with tie. Outside his home, he always has a mask on, a seemingly magitek piece that he makes a lot of bold claims about, though whether those claims are true or not remains to be seen.

:During company affairs, he represents himself with a professional-looking knee-length silver coat, complete with a birdlike hood and mask combination that covers his head entirely. The Might & Magitek logo stands out proudly on his chest.

:Green eyes, black hair, and a ton of scars all over his tanned skin make up the rest of his appearance. Each scar bears it's own significance, and he'll likely tell the story if asked. His hair still retains the purple highlighting that Aurelia left as a prank, though he's since renewed the coloring, remembering a happier time. These days, he prefers to hide his scars, wearing only reserved clothing in public, even down to the fully face-covering mask. Even in friendly company, it's all or nothing--No mask or identifying clothing, to the point that he's dressed in some sort of swimwear... or the mask and full outfit.

:His experiences in the past few years have left their mark, and as a result Anton is a much more carefree individual, having decided to mostly retire from the dangerous monster hunting business... To settle down and become the tavernkeep he'd wanted to be. In this instance, it's a cafe--Not a tavern, but the end result is the same: Anton is happier, free to pursue his recipe experimentation and charity-work, and ultimately build a solid relationship with his partners.

:In all, this new life has left him so much less stressed out on a daily basis, though the addition of two students in his work retinue do throw a wrench in things... Good or bad, only time will tell.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Biography</div>===

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Early Childhood</div>====

:Reasonably unknown at present. Recent information suggests that his father was an Ala Mhigan refugee, his mother an Ul'dahn prostitute. Father disappeared, unknown causes--Assumed dead? Mother resorted to an endless routine of work to make ends meet.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Late Childhood/Teenager</div>====

:Only partially known at present. His mother became sick, almost definitely due to work habits. With his father out of the picture, Anton turned to thievery to help make money, to try and pay for medicine, but although he was able to pay off the fee for the medicine, he was required to work for the man who provided it in order to acquire it at the reduced price. Unfortunately, though, the medicine was a placebo, a fake, nothing but sugar pills--His mother died anyway. Anton tried to get revenge upon the dealer for giving him the shoddy medicine, but even more tragedy was thrown at him: His childhood girlfriend was forced to pay the price for his transgressions, first captured, then tortured to prove a point, and ultimately killed. Her death was kept a secret from Anton to try and keep him working for the dealer--Ever curious, though, Anton figured out what had happened fairly quickly, two of the dealer's thugs commenting on how one had 'gone too far'... And he left. He fled the city under the first caravan out, only revealing himself on arrival to Horizon, which gave the dealer, later, enough information to find that he had taken a boat out.

:Anton's time in La Noscea was an interesting one, starting with the cleaning crew at the Bismarck, where he was eventually promoted to acquisitions, one of the guys handling ingredient procurement, trips out to the outlying settlements to trade. During his time he learned plenty of recipes and a good amount of methodology during those years, which lead to experimentation in his private time--He even accepted lower pay in order to gain time specifically to learn more. To accommodate the lessened pay (so that he could make rent and meals) he turned back to what he had learned earlier in life: Thievery. The problem there, though, lay in the fact that there existed a ruleset for thievery in Limsa Lominsa, and Anton quickly learned what that way of life meant. His time with the rogue's guild cut into his ability to keep a steady job at the Bismarck, <i>and</i> learn about the culinary world, so he chose to abandon the former amicably, and take on more lessons in between jobs of roguery.

:He only had so long, though...

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Wilds</div>====

:The dealer had decided to expand his business out to La Noscea, and unfortunately for Anton, that meant he only had a limited amount of time before he was found out--Certainly he'd be remembered! Under cover of night, he left. Untrained as he was, though, he didn't know how to survive outside the city, and headed first for Costa Del Sol to try and gain meaningful employment as an apprentice chef out there. He was brought on as a trial, a temporary hire to see how he would do--And was found to not make the cut. From there, he ran into the jungle, the wilds, the nigh untamed greenery.

:It wasn't long before he started getting chased by the wildlife. At first it was easy, small birds and the like, but that didn't last: a coeurl had begun stalking him, and though it may have been a younger beast, and unsure of itself, it was still more than a match for the equally young knife-wielding ex-chef-learner. After two close encounters, Anton had managed to get himself up into a tree... And that was that. The coeurl was waiting, essentially starving him out, and the poor kid was sure he was dead, a goner, without any sort of reprieve.. But no, relief came in the form of a large roegadyn man, who not only dispatched the young beast with style, but helped Anton get down without breaking anything, and fed him nonetheless.

:The roegadyn called himself Inquisitive Mentor, and after listening to Anton's story, he took the young man home with him, a tribe--clan? Group? Tiny village? of other roegadyn up further into the jungle, into the mountains. There, for what felt like years, he stayed with them, learning how to survive in the wilds, how to distinguish between medicinal and poisonous plants, and most importantly, how to fight. He'd seen the gladiators fight, even tried to learn how to use a shield, not that it stuck with him. He could use those knives of his, but that wasn't exactly a great weapon against larger beasties that lived in the wilds of La Noscea. Anton was paired up with Mentor's son, Knotted Iron, as he was the best fit as a training partner for the hyur, being a smaller stature, younger roegadyn. They trained extensively on archery and axework, and the midlander even made an effort to show off how to use a shield... But it wasn't exactly a professional quality demonstration.

:Knotted Iron and Anton became fast friends, and regularly went on forays out into the wilds together, both to explore, to learn about the surrounding area, and to hunt. It was on one of these trips that they returned to the village... Only to find that it had been ransacked. No survivors that they could find, and anything that hadn't been taken was trashed, burnt and destroyed beyond any chance of recovery. Anton's time with the rogues suggested it was a band of pirates, and the village was near a river, with tracks leading to and from... But not who the pirates were.

:The only survivor they definitively knew about was Iron's father, Mentor, who had gone on one of his regular trips far out across the world, and was not due to return for over a month yet. They didn't know where he'd gone, but prior to leaving the big man had expressed interest in two areas: Kugane, in the Far East... And the Cataclysm damage site known as the Burning Wall. The two decided to split up, try and find Mentor to inform him of what had happened with Iron heading to the Far East, and Anton to Thanalan, as he already knew the area there. Anton... Did not mention his past to Iron, and had in fact figured he'd be mostly forgotten on his return there, given the time that had passed them by.
====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">The Return to Thanalan</div>====

:Anton's first stop on his arrival back in Vesper Bay was to pick up supplies and a chocobo, putting his thievery skills to great use amongst the denizens of the small town to quickly and quietly secure himself passage up to the Burning Wall... But there was no mention, not even a whisper, of Mentor having come through there. Disappointed, Anton headed back to Ul'dah to see about finding himself any more information. Instead, he found himself more misfortune: The dealer did indeed remember him. He was taken, tortured and... Once more, turned into a worker for the deranged lalafell. Anton didn't know any better, and was still afraid of the little man and his crew. He worked as a thug now, a debt collector, a thief, and on occasion.. A hitman. On more than one occasion, he ran into a mischevious miqo'te thief, but never got a name out of her, but over time her pranks helped break his conditioning to the lalafell, and when the dealer found that he'd been trading sugar cubes for scant conversation, Anton was brought back in for further breaking.

:All Anton remembers of that time is a quantity of body parts, blood everywhere, and the definitive, unquestionable knowledge that the dealer and his two main officers were dead.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Recent Past</div>====

:Turns out, that the thief had a name: [[Tikka Swift]]. After his final incident with the dealer, she pulled yet another prank on him, an attempt to steal his sword. She stuck around for an actual conversation this time, and in the end, invited Anton to join her free company, the Radical Dreamers. A name that assuredly makes not a lick of sense to him, but he didn't particularly care--He gained friends there. He gained family there. His experience with the dealer killed what memory he had of his prior life, and he fully embraced his new one. He worked as a melee instructor and chef for the most part, occasionally playing nursemaid to those with only superficial wounds when the true medical heroes, such as his adoptive sister, [[Kiipa Nulstat]], were busy. He regularly clashed with [[Gen Quickpaw]], the leader of the company.. Generally over matters of simple nature, yet unable to come to a simple conclusion. One minor facet that he enjoyed, though not an official position, is his job of wrangling the new folks in for a drink and an introduction. Between cooking and tending bar, treating wounds, and teaching, he was a regular in most walks of the estate life.

:He managed to gather himself up a girlfriend. This, unfortunately, didn't last nearly as long as anyone was hoping--Even bystanders had high hopes for the two, [[Misha Jinhri]] and Anton, but after only a month, Misha left on a quest of soul-searching, to find herself. When she came back, things had changed... And the two, while remaining pleasant friends, were no longer a couple as a result of the findings of that journey, and the time apart. His love-life has remained relatively shattered from then on, progressing onto a helpless puppy love over his best friend, to constant flings with folks from around the company and his side job with the Obsidian Coterie. He thought he'd found something in his boss, [[Sumari Polaali]], but that had turned south when she refused to believe that she could ever come out from under the shadow that Kiipa left.

:He'd tried to mend fences with any number of previous relationships, even trying his damndest to love the smith, [[Katja Hoax]], the person who helped keep him steady after Kiipa abandoned him.. But it was all for naught. His friendships had dwindled to a shadow of what they were, as had his romantic relationships.. His sister barely gave him the time of day, though her daughter, [[Inelaa Locte]] seemed to adore him.. In all of this, he managed to find a blooming flower of a girlfriend in [[Suna Rokuyari]], all by telling her to not take drugs from strangers..

:He was distraught when his sister fell ill, and pledged himself to doing anything and everything he could to find a way to free her from the voidsent infesting her body, but in the end, he felt helpless, and relegated himself to instead making sure her family, his nieces and nephews, were well taken care of.

:Multiple incidents related to his poor manners Anton was fired from the company, now known as Might and Magitek, and was left in a momentary lurch. He turned to sleeping in dark street corners, hunting larger and larger beasts to keep his mind off of life in general. Over time, [[Aurelia Aerowind]] the tiny cake-gobbling Au Ra murderlizard he'd met during an incident where he had to protect a student from a crazed swordswoman, dragged him to her friends.. And her friends brought him into their company. As a whole, those friends shoved Aurelia and Anton together as a couple rather hastily. During this time he still regularly visited his sister, sneaking around her guardian when necessary... But it did not last much longer, the sleeping sister or the relationship with Aurelia. Happily, Kiipa woke up, though a vastly changed person... And less happily, Anton and Aurelia broke things off. Neither of them were ready for a relationship.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Present</div>====

:For a while, Anton wandered from place to place, generally serving as an odd-job chef for people, a cook on the go. There was an attempt made to run a moogle-themed bar with some friends, but it didn't pan out very well. He kept up his martial teaching lessons, and one such student came back to bite him--In a good way. [[Lune Vormold]], the avid lance learner he'd taken on so long ago, who'd kept up with her lessons non-stop, decided that she wanted to go on a date with Anton, and from there a happy relationship blossomed and still, to this day, kept growing--He'd even proposed to her. At the moment, she was still stuck under contract with her job, but... Things change. With the money he'd made he eventually managed to establish a home of his own near the beach in the Mist, originally intending it just as a place to live, for him and Lune. An executive decision was made after some time, and he turned his new home into his own place: A cafe on the top level, with hidden living quarters underneath for himself. The cafe was originally established as 'Born to Hold Eatery'... But before it's doors even opened for the first time, while he was offering lessons out of his home still, an old acquaintance showed up at his door.

:[[Emmette Stringers]], the person who'd hired him to work for the Obsidian Coterie, once upon a time.. And then, subsequently, fired him without any sort of proper cause, only to offer his assistant at the time his job.. And then some. That's who was now just inside his home, asking about cooking lessons. They had a long talk, but eventually came to an agreement: Yes, he would teach her, but he was <i>not</i> going to go easy on her. He didn't think she'd take the lessons seriously, and figured he'd get rid of her that way.

:He was wrong. She not only took to those lessons seriously, she signed on to be his assistant at the newly branded Purple Pom Parlour cafe. Anton's luck was moving on up in the world. To compound things, the prior executive's demeanor had changed dramatically. She was a bountiful source of happiness, and flirted heavily with Anton regularly, to the point that issues arose between her and Lune... Only to be settled by the latter deciding that, if things were going to be like that, she would share.. But only with Emmette.

:Of course, as yet, nothing has come of that but ridiculous teasing and flirting, as Emmette was now engaged to one [[Ramius Raske]].

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> [[Lune Vormold]] : One of the most dutiful of his students, she still trains with Anton regularly--But he does not consider her a trainee anymore, instead a friend... And then some, given that he's since proposed to her at least once, and has stolen her away on many dates. Stolen indeed, as she was still under contract with the boss that had originally sent her off to Anton for training, the same boss who was oh-so-very strict about her whereabouts... Not that Anton cared, as he regularly kidnapped her off the manor grounds, an agreement in place with the head of the guard core hired to that building. Occasionally, Lune even works at the P3 cafe to help him out.

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> [[Emmette Stringers]] : Once upon a time, he worked for her as a temporary chef to get her culinary house in order. She fired him after a month, citing his inability to accomplish anything or even show up as her reasoning, when in reality he had worked with her company just about every day to get things in order, even going so far as to plan out and teach an entire new menu line that more fit the skills of her chef. After some time, the tables turned, and she came to Anton seeking, ironically, culinary instruction. She'd lost her company and her demeanor had changed to a much more meek individual.. At least at first. Over time, the two grew rather close, enough to threaten a hazard in his romantic life with Lune... But the lovely little spearwoman offered to share Anton with Emmette if it came to that. At current, no such thing has, but Emmette still works at the P3 cafe as Anton's assistant.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Kiipa Nulstat]] : The woman who's done so much to help Anton live a fulfilling life, and the one who he always feels the burning need to make proud. She was his sister, not by blood but by choice--And he loved her fiercely, knowing full well that if ever there came a time where a choice had to be made, her life or his, he'd not hesitate to keep her safe until his end.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Aurelia Aerowind]] : The little lady who kept him sane after he lost his job with the Radical Dreamers, they met in a bar, working together to take down a particularly murderous swordswoman... And were pushed together as a couple recently by one of Aurelia's friends, [[Mayuri Kotonoha]]. They dated for a while, but mutually decided that they weren't fit for each other, though Anton very much adores her still, the angry little cake-monster that she is.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Suna Rokuyari]] : All he'd said was that she shouldn't take drugs from strangers, no matter what they said the drugs could do. The side-effects could be terrifying... And sure enough, they were. The little lizard girl came to visit Anton at the Dreamer estate regularly afterward, eventually signing on as his assistant in chefliness... And from there, his lover. The relationship did not last long, unfortunately, as she felt that he deserved better than she could offer--But they are still great friends, nonetheless.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Attika Nianu]] : Attika was Anton's star student--Whether that's because she was the only one that stuck around, or because she actually does a good job controlling herself, who knows. She has since traveled to Ishgard and back, occasionally studying with Anton on further combat techniques.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Inelaa Locte]] : At first, she was just the target of his retrieval mission into the Shroud. As he started adding things up, though, it became more and more clear.. Inelaa was Kiipa's daughter. Being that Kiipa had adopted Anton as her brother, that made Inelaa his niece.. And he hasn't taken a single moment extra to start showering her in gifts, ranging from giant stuffed animals to clothing and a book on combat arts--Specifically, around archery. The teenager has done a ton for his self-esteem, and has on her own proven that she's already enough of a woman to handle a crowd of horny people at a poetry slam! She's even surprised him with her skill at entertaining, performing a monster-class spooky song to a large crowd of onlookers with ease... And apparently, now has children!

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Sumari Polaali]] : She was, and still is, his boss. For a while, they had a romantic thing going on, until she couldn't take it anymore and.. Basically bailed out of it. He wanted to keep things going, but she couldn't believe that Anton would ever love anyone aside from Kiipa, and so couldn't handle the relationship. He gave her time, and tried again months later, but though she was momentarily receptive, it was not to be.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Tikka Swift]] : The mischievous little brat who'd essentially saved his life, through and through again so early on. He became a reliable source of sugar cubes for her, and joined her free company when she invited him in. As far as he's concerned, if anything ever happened to her or any of her gaggle of children, he'd go on a rampage. Initially, after that original invitation, he considered an attempt at a relationship of sorts with her, but decided against it rather quickly, understanding just how young she was in actuality, and what her life was like--He didn't want to add to the complications.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Katja Hoax]] : Once upon a time, they fucked like bunnies over a contract deal. That broke, as did their relationship afterward--One that Anton tried hard to mend after he realized his errors. He failed in that endeavour, his own mind messing him up time and time again... She has since found herself in a relationship with a dragoon from Ishgard, who he has great respect for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Gen Quickpaw]] : Gen was one of Anton's favorite people to have around. He respected the man, even with as much shit as they threw at each other--He's now Kiipa's side-man, though it's more seeming like she's just been absorbed into Gen's family all in all. Gen is, for all intents and purposes a brother-in-law of sorts, being Kiipa's lover... And over time, Anton and he have figured things out between themselves, and are.. Friends, though not exactly best of.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Tallera Weaver]] : Crazy voodoo sorceress. Anton ran across her one day, and since then, every time they meet up, somethin' crazy happens--Or they count the whores inside the Quicksand. One or the other. She seems fair convinced that she's a zombie, but he's not convinced--He does know, however, that she /really/ likes watching the stars. Of course, this became quite a bit more clear when he realized that the woman was, in fact, an Ishgardian Astrologian--A star-mancer-mage-wizard. He's got quite a bit of respect for the girl, and what she's been able to pull off, lately. On top of all that, he now works with the crazy woman as his side job, hunting down exotic beasties for parts--And in turn, he hires her for jobs regarding more magical skill.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Misha Jinhri]] : Misha, Misha, Misha. They met as a result of Tikka jumping off a balcony and Anton following her, but they hit it off easily. And, with Leif dodging out of getting a drink with the three of them, they realized that they clicked fairly well... So, they went on a date. And then another one. And decided that, regardless of how fast they were or weren't going, they'd try their hand at being a couple. It didn't work out, but the two are still friends. Or.. They were, anyway. After a long stretch of nothing but disrespect, he's not sure what to do with her anymore.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Felix Cyprus]] : One of the first people he met in the Dreamers. A stoic guardsman, now turned.. Stoic fistfighter? He wasn't sure what to make of the tall, dark, and lovely man at times, but he did try to call the man a friend.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Jeros Redd]] : Jeros. Technically? Jeros was his superior in terms of both free and grand company. Anton worked with the Maelstrom--So did Jeros, only for much longer. Same, too, with the Dreamers. Nonetheless, Jeros is helping to get the big guy back into fighting shape, after a nasty run-in with a particularly devastating voidsent. Indeed, they very much teach each other. Recently, he's been helping the man put together his past, and helping him unfold his future as a trainee armorer.

: <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Runa Sweet]] : After some time without a trainee, Anton happened upon Runa at a beach party for Emmette's company.. And, one thing lead in to another, and the company leader essentially asked him to help teach Runa how to swing a sword, and perhaps get some finesse training while he was at it. Runa, as it was, seemed to be an attentive student and followed direction with minimal question... So far.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Appearance & Personality</div>===
:Commonly seen these days wearing what looks like a black bodysuit, though closer inspection shows a parting at the midsection and wrists, just clothing of a similar material. Over that, a purple or silver jacket, complete with tie. Outside his home, he always has a mask on, a seemingly magitek piece that he makes a lot of bold claims about, though whether those claims are true or not remains to be seen.

:During company affairs, he represents himself with a professional-looking knee-length silver coat, complete with a birdlike hood and mask combination that covers his head entirely. The Might & Magitek logo stands out proudly on his chest.

:Green eyes, black hair, and a ton of scars all over his tanned skin make up the rest of his appearance. Each scar bears it's own significance, and he'll likely tell the story if asked. His hair still retains the purple highlighting that Aurelia left as a prank, though he's since renewed the coloring, remembering a happier time. These days, he prefers to hide his scars, wearing only reserved clothing in public, even down to the fully face-covering mask. Even in friendly company, it's all or nothing--No mask or identifying clothing, to the point that he's dressed in some sort of swimwear... or the mask and full outfit.

:His experiences in the past few years have left their mark, and as a result Anton is a much more carefree individual, having decided to mostly retire from the dangerous monster hunting business... To settle down and become the tavernkeep he'd wanted to be. In this instance, it's a cafe--Not a tavern, but the end result is the same: Anton is happier, free to pursue his recipe experimentation and charity-work, and ultimately build a solid relationship with his partners.

:In all, this new life has left him so much less stressed out on a daily basis, though the addition of two students in his work retinue do throw a wrench in things... Good or bad, only time will tell.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Biography</div>===

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Early Childhood</div>====

:Reasonably unknown at present. Recent information suggests that his father was an Ala Mhigan refugee, his mother an Ul'dahn prostitute. Father disappeared, unknown causes--Assumed dead? Mother resorted to an endless routine of work to make ends meet.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Late Childhood/Teenager</div>====

:Only partially known at present. His mother became sick, almost definitely due to work habits. With his father out of the picture, Anton turned to thievery to help make money, to try and pay for medicine, but although he was able to pay off the fee for the medicine, he was required to work for the man who provided it in order to acquire it at the reduced price. Unfortunately, though, the medicine was a placebo, a fake, nothing but sugar pills--His mother died anyway. Anton tried to get revenge upon the dealer for giving him the shoddy medicine, but even more tragedy was thrown at him: His childhood girlfriend was forced to pay the price for his transgressions, first captured, then tortured to prove a point, and ultimately killed. Her death was kept a secret from Anton to try and keep him working for the dealer--Ever curious, though, Anton figured out what had happened fairly quickly, two of the dealer's thugs commenting on how one had 'gone too far'... And he left. He fled the city under the first caravan out, only revealing himself on arrival to Horizon, which gave the dealer, later, enough information to find that he had taken a boat out.

:Anton's time in La Noscea was an interesting one, starting with the cleaning crew at the Bismarck, where he was eventually promoted to acquisitions, one of the guys handling ingredient procurement, trips out to the outlying settlements to trade. During his time he learned plenty of recipes and a good amount of methodology during those years, which lead to experimentation in his private time--He even accepted lower pay in order to gain time specifically to learn more. To accommodate the lessened pay (so that he could make rent and meals) he turned back to what he had learned earlier in life: Thievery. The problem there, though, lay in the fact that there existed a ruleset for thievery in Limsa Lominsa, and Anton quickly learned what that way of life meant. His time with the rogue's guild cut into his ability to keep a steady job at the Bismarck, <i>and</i> learn about the culinary world, so he chose to abandon the former amicably, and take on more lessons in between jobs of roguery.

:He only had so long, though...

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Wilds</div>====

:The dealer had decided to expand his business out to La Noscea, and unfortunately for Anton, that meant he only had a limited amount of time before he was found out--Certainly he'd be remembered! Under cover of night, he left. Untrained as he was, though, he didn't know how to survive outside the city, and headed first for Costa Del Sol to try and gain meaningful employment as an apprentice chef out there. He was brought on as a trial, a temporary hire to see how he would do--And was found to not make the cut. From there, he ran into the jungle, the wilds, the nigh untamed greenery.

:It wasn't long before he started getting chased by the wildlife. At first it was easy, small birds and the like, but that didn't last: a coeurl had begun stalking him, and though it may have been a younger beast, and unsure of itself, it was still more than a match for the equally young knife-wielding ex-chef-learner. After two close encounters, Anton had managed to get himself up into a tree... And that was that. The coeurl was waiting, essentially starving him out, and the poor kid was sure he was dead, a goner, without any sort of reprieve.. But no, relief came in the form of a large roegadyn man, who not only dispatched the young beast with style, but helped Anton get down without breaking anything, and fed him nonetheless.

:The roegadyn called himself Inquisitive Mentor, and after listening to Anton's story, he took the young man home with him, a tribe--clan? Group? Tiny village? of other roegadyn up further into the jungle, into the mountains. There, for what felt like years, he stayed with them, learning how to survive in the wilds, how to distinguish between medicinal and poisonous plants, and most importantly, how to fight. He'd seen the gladiators fight, even tried to learn how to use a shield, not that it stuck with him. He could use those knives of his, but that wasn't exactly a great weapon against larger beasties that lived in the wilds of La Noscea. Anton was paired up with Mentor's son, Knotted Iron, as he was the best fit as a training partner for the hyur, being a smaller stature, younger roegadyn. They trained extensively on archery and axework, and the midlander even made an effort to show off how to use a shield... But it wasn't exactly a professional quality demonstration.

:Knotted Iron and Anton became fast friends, and regularly went on forays out into the wilds together, both to explore, to learn about the surrounding area, and to hunt. It was on one of these trips that they returned to the village... Only to find that it had been ransacked. No survivors that they could find, and anything that hadn't been taken was trashed, burnt and destroyed beyond any chance of recovery. Anton's time with the rogues suggested it was a band of pirates, and the village was near a river, with tracks leading to and from... But not who the pirates were.

:The only survivor they definitively knew about was Iron's father, Mentor, who had gone on one of his regular trips far out across the world, and was not due to return for over a month yet. They didn't know where he'd gone, but prior to leaving the big man had expressed interest in two areas: Kugane, in the Far East... And the Cataclysm damage site known as the Burning Wall. The two decided to split up, try and find Mentor to inform him of what had happened with Iron heading to the Far East, and Anton to Thanalan, as he already knew the area there. Anton... Did not mention his past to Iron, and had in fact figured he'd be mostly forgotten on his return there, given the time that had passed them by.
====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">The Return to Thanalan</div>====

:Anton's first stop on his arrival back in Vesper Bay was to pick up supplies and a chocobo, putting his thievery skills to great use amongst the denizens of the small town to quickly and quietly secure himself passage up to the Burning Wall... But there was no mention, not even a whisper, of Mentor having come through there. Disappointed, Anton headed back to Ul'dah to see about finding himself any more information. Instead, he found himself more misfortune: The dealer did indeed remember him. He was taken, tortured and... Once more, turned into a worker for the deranged lalafell. Anton didn't know any better, and was still afraid of the little man and his crew. He worked as a thug now, a debt collector, a thief, and on occasion.. A hitman. On more than one occasion, he ran into a mischevious miqo'te thief, but never got a name out of her, but over time her pranks helped break his conditioning to the lalafell, and when the dealer found that he'd been trading sugar cubes for scant conversation, Anton was brought back in for further breaking.

:All Anton remembers of that time is a quantity of body parts, blood everywhere, and the definitive, unquestionable knowledge that the dealer and his two main officers were dead.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Recent Past</div>====

:Turns out, that the thief had a name: [[Tikka Swift]]. After his final incident with the dealer, she pulled yet another prank on him, an attempt to steal his sword. She stuck around for an actual conversation this time, and in the end, invited Anton to join her free company, the Radical Dreamers. A name that assuredly makes not a lick of sense to him, but he didn't particularly care--He gained friends there. He gained family there. His experience with the dealer killed what memory he had of his prior life, and he fully embraced his new one. He worked as a melee instructor and chef for the most part, occasionally playing nursemaid to those with only superficial wounds when the true medical heroes, such as his adoptive sister, [[Kiipa Nulstat]], were busy. He regularly clashed with [[Gen Quickpaw]], the leader of the company.. Generally over matters of simple nature, yet unable to come to a simple conclusion. One minor facet that he enjoyed, though not an official position, is his job of wrangling the new folks in for a drink and an introduction. Between cooking and tending bar, treating wounds, and teaching, he was a regular in most walks of the estate life.

:He managed to gather himself up a girlfriend. This, unfortunately, didn't last nearly as long as anyone was hoping--Even bystanders had high hopes for the two, [[Misha Jinhri]] and Anton, but after only a month, Misha left on a quest of soul-searching, to find herself. When she came back, things had changed... And the two, while remaining pleasant friends, were no longer a couple as a result of the findings of that journey, and the time apart. His love-life has remained relatively shattered from then on, progressing onto a helpless puppy love over his best friend, to constant flings with folks from around the company and his side job with the Obsidian Coterie. He thought he'd found something in his boss, [[Sumari Polaali]], but that had turned south when she refused to believe that she could ever come out from under the shadow that Kiipa left.

:He'd tried to mend fences with any number of previous relationships, even trying his damndest to love the smith, [[Katja Hoax]], the person who helped keep him steady after Kiipa abandoned him.. But it was all for naught. His friendships had dwindled to a shadow of what they were, as had his romantic relationships.. His sister barely gave him the time of day, though her daughter, [[Inelaa Locte]] seemed to adore him.. In all of this, he managed to find a blooming flower of a girlfriend in [[Suna Rokuyari]], all by telling her to not take drugs from strangers..

:He was distraught when his sister fell ill, and pledged himself to doing anything and everything he could to find a way to free her from the voidsent infesting her body, but in the end, he felt helpless, and relegated himself to instead making sure her family, his nieces and nephews, were well taken care of.

:Multiple incidents related to his poor manners Anton was fired from the company, now known as Might and Magitek, and was left in a momentary lurch. He turned to sleeping in dark street corners, hunting larger and larger beasts to keep his mind off of life in general. Over time, [[Aurelia Aerowind]] the tiny cake-gobbling Au Ra murderlizard he'd met during an incident where he had to protect a student from a crazed swordswoman, dragged him to her friends.. And her friends brought him into their company. As a whole, those friends shoved Aurelia and Anton together as a couple rather hastily. During this time he still regularly visited his sister, sneaking around her guardian when necessary... But it did not last much longer, the sleeping sister or the relationship with Aurelia. Happily, Kiipa woke up, though a vastly changed person... And less happily, Anton and Aurelia broke things off. Neither of them were ready for a relationship.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Present</div>====

:For a while, Anton wandered from place to place, generally serving as an odd-job chef for people, a cook on the go. There was an attempt made to run a moogle-themed bar with some friends, but it didn't pan out very well. He kept up his martial teaching lessons, and one such student came back to bite him--In a good way. [[Lune Vormold]], the avid lance learner he'd taken on so long ago, who'd kept up with her lessons non-stop, decided that she wanted to go on a date with Anton, and from there a happy relationship blossomed and still, to this day, kept growing--He'd even proposed to her. At the moment, she was still stuck under contract with her job, but... Things change. With the money he'd made he eventually managed to establish a home of his own near the beach in the Mist, originally intending it just as a place to live, for him and Lune. An executive decision was made after some time, and he turned his new home into his own place: A cafe on the top level, with hidden living quarters underneath for himself. The cafe was originally established as 'Born to Hold Eatery'... But before it's doors even opened for the first time, while he was offering lessons out of his home still, an old acquaintance showed up at his door.

:[[Emmette Stringers]], the person who'd hired him to work for the Obsidian Coterie, once upon a time.. And then, subsequently, fired him without any sort of proper cause, only to offer his assistant at the time his job.. And then some. That's who was now just inside his home, asking about cooking lessons. They had a long talk, but eventually came to an agreement: Yes, he would teach her, but he was <i>not</i> going to go easy on her. He didn't think she'd take the lessons seriously, and figured he'd get rid of her that way.

:He was wrong. She not only took to those lessons seriously, she signed on to be his assistant at the newly branded Purple Pom Parlour cafe. Anton's luck was moving on up in the world. To compound things, the prior executive's demeanor had changed dramatically. She was a bountiful source of happiness, and flirted heavily with Anton regularly, to the point that issues arose between her and Lune... Only to be settled by the latter deciding that, if things were going to be like that, she would share.. But only with Emmette.

:Of course, as yet, nothing has come of that but ridiculous teasing and flirting, as Emmette was now engaged to one [[Ramius Raske]].

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> [[Lune Vormold]] : One of the most dutiful of his students, she still trains with Anton regularly--But he does not consider her a trainee anymore, instead a friend... And then some, given that he's since proposed to her at least once, and has stolen her away on many dates. Stolen indeed, as she was still under contract with the boss that had originally sent her off to Anton for training, the same boss who was oh-so-very strict about her whereabouts... Not that Anton cared, as he regularly kidnapped her off the manor grounds, an agreement in place with the head of the guard core hired to that building. Occasionally, Lune even works at the P3 cafe to help him out.

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> [[Emmette Stringers]] : Once upon a time, he worked for her as a temporary chef to get her culinary house in order. She fired him after a month, citing his inability to accomplish anything or even show up as her reasoning, when in reality he had worked with her company just about every day to get things in order, even going so far as to plan out and teach an entire new menu line that more fit the skills of her chef. After some time, the tables turned, and she came to Anton seeking, ironically, culinary instruction. She'd lost her company and her demeanor had changed to a much more meek individual.. At least at first. Over time, the two grew rather close, enough to threaten a hazard in his romantic life with Lune... But the lovely little spearwoman offered to share Anton with Emmette if it came to that. At current, no such thing has, but Emmette still works at the P3 cafe as Anton's assistant.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Kiipa Nulstat]] : The woman who's done so much to help Anton live a fulfilling life, and the one who he always feels the burning need to make proud. She was his sister, not by blood but by choice--And he loved her fiercely, knowing full well that if ever there came a time where a choice had to be made, her life or his, he'd not hesitate to keep her safe until his end.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Aurelia Aerowind]] : The little lady who kept him sane after he lost his job with the Radical Dreamers, they met in a bar, working together to take down a particularly murderous swordswoman... And were pushed together as a couple recently by one of Aurelia's friends, [[Mayuri Kotonoha]]. They dated for a while, but mutually decided that they weren't fit for each other, though Anton very much adores her still, the angry little cake-monster that she is.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Suna Rokuyari]] : All he'd said was that she shouldn't take drugs from strangers, no matter what they said the drugs could do. The side-effects could be terrifying... And sure enough, they were. The little lizard girl came to visit Anton at the Dreamer estate regularly afterward, eventually signing on as his assistant in chefliness... And from there, his lover. The relationship did not last long, unfortunately, as she felt that he deserved better than she could offer--But they are still great friends, nonetheless.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Attika Nianu]] : Attika was Anton's star student--Whether that's because she was the only one that stuck around, or because she actually does a good job controlling herself, who knows. She has since traveled to Ishgard and back, occasionally studying with Anton on further combat techniques.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Inelaa Locte]] : At first, she was just the target of his retrieval mission into the Shroud. As he started adding things up, though, it became more and more clear.. Inelaa was Kiipa's daughter. Being that Kiipa had adopted Anton as her brother, that made Inelaa his niece.. And he hasn't taken a single moment extra to start showering her in gifts, ranging from giant stuffed animals to clothing and a book on combat arts--Specifically, around archery. The teenager has done a ton for his self-esteem, and has on her own proven that she's already enough of a woman to handle a crowd of horny people at a poetry slam! She's even surprised him with her skill at entertaining, performing a monster-class spooky song to a large crowd of onlookers with ease... And apparently, now has children!

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Sumari Polaali]] : She was, and still is, his boss. For a while, they had a romantic thing going on, until she couldn't take it anymore and.. Basically bailed out of it. He wanted to keep things going, but she couldn't believe that Anton would ever love anyone aside from Kiipa, and so couldn't handle the relationship. He gave her time, and tried again months later, but though she was momentarily receptive, it was not to be.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Tikka Swift]] : The mischievous little brat who'd essentially saved his life, through and through again so early on. He became a reliable source of sugar cubes for her, and joined her free company when she invited him in. As far as he's concerned, if anything ever happened to her or any of her gaggle of children, he'd go on a rampage. Initially, after that original invitation, he considered an attempt at a relationship of sorts with her, but decided against it rather quickly, understanding just how young she was in actuality, and what her life was like--He didn't want to add to the complications.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Katja Hoax]] : Once upon a time, they fucked like bunnies over a contract deal. That broke, as did their relationship afterward--One that Anton tried hard to mend after he realized his errors. He failed in that endeavour, his own mind messing him up time and time again... She has since found herself in a relationship with a dragoon from Ishgard, who he has great respect for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Gen Quickpaw]] : Gen was one of Anton's favorite people to have around. He respected the man, even with as much shit as they threw at each other--He's now Kiipa's side-man, though it's more seeming like she's just been absorbed into Gen's family all in all. Gen is, for all intents and purposes a brother-in-law of sorts, being Kiipa's lover... And over time, Anton and he have figured things out between themselves, and are.. Friends, though not exactly best of.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Tallera Weaver]] : Crazy voodoo sorceress. Anton ran across her one day, and since then, every time they meet up, somethin' crazy happens--Or they count the whores inside the Quicksand. One or the other. She seems fair convinced that she's a zombie, but he's not convinced--He does know, however, that she /really/ likes watching the stars. Of course, this became quite a bit more clear when he realized that the woman was, in fact, an Ishgardian Astrologian--A star-mancer-mage-wizard. He's got quite a bit of respect for the girl, and what she's been able to pull off, lately. On top of all that, he now works with the crazy woman as his side job, hunting down exotic beasties for parts--And in turn, he hires her for jobs regarding more magical skill.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Misha Jinhri]] : Misha, Misha, Misha. They met as a result of Tikka jumping off a balcony and Anton following her, but they hit it off easily. And, with Leif dodging out of getting a drink with the three of them, they realized that they clicked fairly well... So, they went on a date. And then another one. And decided that, regardless of how fast they were or weren't going, they'd try their hand at being a couple. It didn't work out, but the two are still friends. Or.. They were, anyway. After a long stretch of nothing but disrespect, he's not sure what to do with her anymore.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Felix Cyprus]] : One of the first people he met in the Dreamers. A stoic guardsman, now turned.. Stoic fistfighter? He wasn't sure what to make of the tall, dark, and lovely man at times, but he did try to call the man a friend.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Jeros Redd]] : Jeros. Technically? Jeros was his superior in terms of both free and grand company. Anton worked with the Maelstrom--So did Jeros, only for much longer. Same, too, with the Dreamers. Nonetheless, Jeros is helping to get the big guy back into fighting shape, after a nasty run-in with a particularly devastating voidsent. Indeed, they very much teach each other. Recently, he's been helping the man put together his past, and helping him unfold his future as a trainee armorer.

: <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Runa Sweet]] : After some time without a trainee, Anton happened upon Runa at a beach party for Emmette's company.. And, one thing lead in to another, and the company leader essentially asked him to help teach Runa how to swing a sword, and perhaps get some finesse training while he was at it. Runa, as it was, seemed to be an attentive student and followed direction with minimal question... So far.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Appearance & Personality</div>===
:Commonly seen these days wearing what looks like a black bodysuit, though closer inspection shows a parting at the midsection and wrists, just clothing of a similar material. Over that, a purple or silver jacket, complete with tie. Outside his home, he always has a mask on, a seemingly magitek piece that he makes a lot of bold claims about, though whether those claims are true or not remains to be seen.

:During company affairs, he represents himself with a professional-looking knee-length silver coat, complete with a birdlike hood and mask combination that covers his head entirely. The Might & Magitek logo stands out proudly on his chest.

:Green eyes, black hair, and a ton of scars all over his tanned skin make up the rest of his appearance. Each scar bears it's own significance, and he'll likely tell the story if asked. His hair still retains the purple highlighting that Aurelia left as a prank, though he's since renewed the coloring, remembering a happier time. These days, he prefers to hide his scars, wearing only reserved clothing in public, even down to the fully face-covering mask. Even in friendly company, it's all or nothing--No mask or identifying clothing, to the point that he's dressed in some sort of swimwear... or the mask and full outfit.

:His experiences in the past few years have left their mark, and as a result Anton is a much more carefree individual, having decided to mostly retire from the dangerous monster hunting business... To settle down and become the tavernkeep he'd wanted to be. In this instance, it's a cafe--Not a tavern, but the end result is the same: Anton is happier, free to pursue his recipe experimentation and charity-work, and ultimately build a solid relationship with his partners.

:In all, this new life has left him so much less stressed out on a daily basis, though the addition of two students in his work retinue do throw a wrench in things... Good or bad, only time will tell.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Biography</div>===

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Early Childhood</div>====

:Reasonably unknown at present. Recent information suggests that his father was an Ala Mhigan refugee, his mother an Ul'dahn prostitute. Father disappeared, unknown causes--Assumed dead? Mother resorted to an endless routine of work to make ends meet.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Late Childhood/Teenager</div>====

:Only partially known at present. His mother became sick, almost definitely due to work habits. With his father out of the picture, Anton turned to thievery to help make money, to try and pay for medicine, but although he was able to pay off the fee for the medicine, he was required to work for the man who provided it in order to acquire it at the reduced price. Unfortunately, though, the medicine was a placebo, a fake, nothing but sugar pills--His mother died anyway. Anton tried to get revenge upon the dealer for giving him the shoddy medicine, but even more tragedy was thrown at him: His childhood girlfriend was forced to pay the price for his transgressions, first captured, then tortured to prove a point, and ultimately killed. Her death was kept a secret from Anton to try and keep him working for the dealer--Ever curious, though, Anton figured out what had happened fairly quickly, two of the dealer's thugs commenting on how one had 'gone too far'... And he left. He fled the city under the first caravan out, only revealing himself on arrival to Horizon, which gave the dealer, later, enough information to find that he had taken a boat out.

:Anton's time in La Noscea was an interesting one, starting with the cleaning crew at the Bismarck, where he was eventually promoted to acquisitions, one of the guys handling ingredient procurement, trips out to the outlying settlements to trade. During his time he learned plenty of recipes and a good amount of methodology during those years, which lead to experimentation in his private time--He even accepted lower pay in order to gain time specifically to learn more. To accommodate the lessened pay (so that he could make rent and meals) he turned back to what he had learned earlier in life: Thievery. The problem there, though, lay in the fact that there existed a ruleset for thievery in Limsa Lominsa, and Anton quickly learned what that way of life meant. His time with the rogue's guild cut into his ability to keep a steady job at the Bismarck, <i>and</i> learn about the culinary world, so he chose to abandon the former amicably, and take on more lessons in between jobs of roguery.

:He only had so long, though...

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Wilds</div>====

:The dealer had decided to expand his business out to La Noscea, and unfortunately for Anton, that meant he only had a limited amount of time before he was found out--Certainly he'd be remembered! Under cover of night, he left. Untrained as he was, though, he didn't know how to survive outside the city, and headed first for Costa Del Sol to try and gain meaningful employment as an apprentice chef out there. He was brought on as a trial, a temporary hire to see how he would do--And was found to not make the cut. From there, he ran into the jungle, the wilds, the nigh untamed greenery.

:It wasn't long before he started getting chased by the wildlife. At first it was easy, small birds and the like, but that didn't last: a coeurl had begun stalking him, and though it may have been a younger beast, and unsure of itself, it was still more than a match for the equally young knife-wielding ex-chef-learner. After two close encounters, Anton had managed to get himself up into a tree... And that was that. The coeurl was waiting, essentially starving him out, and the poor kid was sure he was dead, a goner, without any sort of reprieve.. But no, relief came in the form of a large roegadyn man, who not only dispatched the young beast with style, but helped Anton get down without breaking anything, and fed him nonetheless.

:The roegadyn called himself Inquisitive Mentor, and after listening to Anton's story, he took the young man home with him, a tribe--clan? Group? Tiny village? of other roegadyn up further into the jungle, into the mountains. There, for what felt like years, he stayed with them, learning how to survive in the wilds, how to distinguish between medicinal and poisonous plants, and most importantly, how to fight. He'd seen the gladiators fight, even tried to learn how to use a shield, not that it stuck with him. He could use those knives of his, but that wasn't exactly a great weapon against larger beasties that lived in the wilds of La Noscea. Anton was paired up with Mentor's son, Knotted Iron, as he was the best fit as a training partner for the hyur, being a smaller stature, younger roegadyn. They trained extensively on archery and axework, and the midlander even made an effort to show off how to use a shield... But it wasn't exactly a professional quality demonstration.

:Knotted Iron and Anton became fast friends, and regularly went on forays out into the wilds together, both to explore, to learn about the surrounding area, and to hunt. It was on one of these trips that they returned to the village... Only to find that it had been ransacked. No survivors that they could find, and anything that hadn't been taken was trashed, burnt and destroyed beyond any chance of recovery. Anton's time with the rogues suggested it was a band of pirates, and the village was near a river, with tracks leading to and from... But not who the pirates were.

:The only survivor they definitively knew about was Iron's father, Mentor, who had gone on one of his regular trips far out across the world, and was not due to return for over a month yet. They didn't know where he'd gone, but prior to leaving the big man had expressed interest in two areas: Kugane, in the Far East... And the Cataclysm damage site known as the Burning Wall. The two decided to split up, try and find Mentor to inform him of what had happened with Iron heading to the Far East, and Anton to Thanalan, as he already knew the area there. Anton... Did not mention his past to Iron, and had in fact figured he'd be mostly forgotten on his return there, given the time that had passed them by.
====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">The Return to Thanalan</div>====

:Anton's first stop on his arrival back in Vesper Bay was to pick up supplies and a chocobo, putting his thievery skills to great use amongst the denizens of the small town to quickly and quietly secure himself passage up to the Burning Wall... But there was no mention, not even a whisper, of Mentor having come through there. Disappointed, Anton headed back to Ul'dah to see about finding himself any more information. Instead, he found himself more misfortune: The dealer did indeed remember him. He was taken, tortured and... Once more, turned into a worker for the deranged lalafell. Anton didn't know any better, and was still afraid of the little man and his crew. He worked as a thug now, a debt collector, a thief, and on occasion.. A hitman. On more than one occasion, he ran into a mischevious miqo'te thief, but never got a name out of her, but over time her pranks helped break his conditioning to the lalafell, and when the dealer found that he'd been trading sugar cubes for scant conversation, Anton was brought back in for further breaking.

:All Anton remembers of that time is a quantity of body parts, blood everywhere, and the definitive, unquestionable knowledge that the dealer and his two main officers were dead.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Recent Past</div>====

:Turns out, that the thief had a name: [[Tikka Swift]]. After his final incident with the dealer, she pulled yet another prank on him, an attempt to steal his sword. She stuck around for an actual conversation this time, and in the end, invited Anton to join her free company, the Radical Dreamers. A name that assuredly makes not a lick of sense to him, but he didn't particularly care--He gained friends there. He gained family there. His experience with the dealer killed what memory he had of his prior life, and he fully embraced his new one. He worked as a melee instructor and chef for the most part, occasionally playing nursemaid to those with only superficial wounds when the true medical heroes, such as his adoptive sister, [[Kiipa Nulstat]], were busy. He regularly clashed with [[Gen Quickpaw]], the leader of the company.. Generally over matters of simple nature, yet unable to come to a simple conclusion. One minor facet that he enjoyed, though not an official position, is his job of wrangling the new folks in for a drink and an introduction. Between cooking and tending bar, treating wounds, and teaching, he was a regular in most walks of the estate life.

:He managed to gather himself up a girlfriend. This, unfortunately, didn't last nearly as long as anyone was hoping--Even bystanders had high hopes for the two, [[Misha Jinhri]] and Anton, but after only a month, Misha left on a quest of soul-searching, to find herself. When she came back, things had changed... And the two, while remaining pleasant friends, were no longer a couple as a result of the findings of that journey, and the time apart. His love-life has remained relatively shattered from then on, progressing onto a helpless puppy love over his best friend, to constant flings with folks from around the company and his side job with the Obsidian Coterie. He thought he'd found something in his boss, [[Sumari Polaali]], but that had turned south when she refused to believe that she could ever come out from under the shadow that Kiipa left.

:He'd tried to mend fences with any number of previous relationships, even trying his damndest to love the smith, [[Katja Hoax]], the person who helped keep him steady after Kiipa abandoned him.. But it was all for naught. His friendships had dwindled to a shadow of what they were, as had his romantic relationships.. His sister barely gave him the time of day, though her daughter, [[Inelaa Locte]] seemed to adore him.. In all of this, he managed to find a blooming flower of a girlfriend in [[Suna Rokuyari]], all by telling her to not take drugs from strangers..

:He was distraught when his sister fell ill, and pledged himself to doing anything and everything he could to find a way to free her from the voidsent infesting her body, but in the end, he felt helpless, and relegated himself to instead making sure her family, his nieces and nephews, were well taken care of.

:Multiple incidents related to his poor manners Anton was fired from the company, now known as Might and Magitek, and was left in a momentary lurch. He turned to sleeping in dark street corners, hunting larger and larger beasts to keep his mind off of life in general. Over time, [[Aurelia Aerowind]] the tiny cake-gobbling Au Ra murderlizard he'd met during an incident where he had to protect a student from a crazed swordswoman, dragged him to her friends.. And her friends brought him into their company. As a whole, those friends shoved Aurelia and Anton together as a couple rather hastily. During this time he still regularly visited his sister, sneaking around her guardian when necessary... But it did not last much longer, the sleeping sister or the relationship with Aurelia. Happily, Kiipa woke up, though a vastly changed person... And less happily, Anton and Aurelia broke things off. Neither of them were ready for a relationship.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Present</div>====

:For a while, Anton wandered from place to place, generally serving as an odd-job chef for people, a cook on the go. There was an attempt made to run a moogle-themed bar with some friends, but it didn't pan out very well. He kept up his martial teaching lessons, and one such student came back to bite him--In a good way. [[Lune Vormold]], the avid lance learner he'd taken on so long ago, who'd kept up with her lessons non-stop, decided that she wanted to go on a date with Anton, and from there a happy relationship blossomed and still, to this day, kept growing--He'd even proposed to her. At the moment, she was still stuck under contract with her job, but... Things change. With the money he'd made he eventually managed to establish a home of his own near the beach in the Mist, originally intending it just as a place to live, for him and Lune. An executive decision was made after some time, and he turned his new home into his own place: A cafe on the top level, with hidden living quarters underneath for himself. The cafe was originally established as 'Born to Hold Eatery'... But before it's doors even opened for the first time, while he was offering lessons out of his home still, an old acquaintance showed up at his door.

:[[Emmette Stringers]], the person who'd hired him to work for the Obsidian Coterie, once upon a time.. And then, subsequently, fired him without any sort of proper cause, only to offer his assistant at the time his job.. And then some. That's who was now just inside his home, asking about cooking lessons. They had a long talk, but eventually came to an agreement: Yes, he would teach her, but he was <i>not</i> going to go easy on her. He didn't think she'd take the lessons seriously, and figured he'd get rid of her that way.

:He was wrong. She not only took to those lessons seriously, she signed on to be his assistant at the newly branded Purple Pom Parlour cafe. Anton's luck was moving on up in the world. To compound things, the prior executive's demeanor had changed dramatically. She was a bountiful source of happiness, and flirted heavily with Anton regularly, to the point that issues arose between her and Lune... Only to be settled by the latter deciding that, if things were going to be like that, she would share.. But only with Emmette.

:Of course, as yet, nothing has come of that but ridiculous teasing and flirting, as Emmette was now engaged to one [[Ramius Raske]].

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> [[Lune Vormold]] : One of the most dutiful of his students, she still trains with Anton regularly--But he does not consider her a trainee anymore, instead a friend... And then some, given that he's since proposed to her at least once, and has stolen her away on many dates. Stolen indeed, as she was still under contract with the boss that had originally sent her off to Anton for training, the same boss who was oh-so-very strict about her whereabouts... Not that Anton cared, as he regularly kidnapped her off the manor grounds, an agreement in place with the head of the guard core hired to that building. Occasionally, Lune even works at the P3 cafe to help him out.

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> [[Emmette Stringers]] : Once upon a time, he worked for her as a temporary chef to get her culinary house in order. She fired him after a month, citing his inability to accomplish anything or even show up as her reasoning, when in reality he had worked with her company just about every day to get things in order, even going so far as to plan out and teach an entire new menu line that more fit the skills of her chef. After some time, the tables turned, and she came to Anton seeking, ironically, culinary instruction. She'd lost her company and her demeanor had changed to a much more meek individual.. At least at first. Over time, the two grew rather close, enough to threaten a hazard in his romantic life with Lune... But the lovely little spearwoman offered to share Anton with Emmette if it came to that. At current, no such thing has, but Emmette still works at the P3 cafe as Anton's assistant.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Kiipa Nulstat]] : The woman who's done so much to help Anton live a fulfilling life, and the one who he always feels the burning need to make proud. She was his sister, not by blood but by choice--And he loved her fiercely, knowing full well that if ever there came a time where a choice had to be made, her life or his, he'd not hesitate to keep her safe until his end.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Aurelia Aerowind]] : The little lady who kept him sane after he lost his job with the Radical Dreamers, they met in a bar, working together to take down a particularly murderous swordswoman... And were pushed together as a couple recently by one of Aurelia's friends, [[Mayuri Kotonoha]]. They dated for a while, but mutually decided that they weren't fit for each other, though Anton very much adores her still, the angry little cake-monster that she is.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Suna Rokuyari]] : All he'd said was that she shouldn't take drugs from strangers, no matter what they said the drugs could do. The side-effects could be terrifying... And sure enough, they were. The little lizard girl came to visit Anton at the Dreamer estate regularly afterward, eventually signing on as his assistant in chefliness... And from there, his lover. The relationship did not last long, unfortunately, as she felt that he deserved better than she could offer--But they are still great friends, nonetheless.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Attika Nianu]] : Attika was Anton's star student--Whether that's because she was the only one that stuck around, or because she actually does a good job controlling herself, who knows. She has since traveled to Ishgard and back, occasionally studying with Anton on further combat techniques.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Inelaa Locte]] : At first, she was just the target of his retrieval mission into the Shroud. As he started adding things up, though, it became more and more clear.. Inelaa was Kiipa's daughter. Being that Kiipa had adopted Anton as her brother, that made Inelaa his niece.. And he hasn't taken a single moment extra to start showering her in gifts, ranging from giant stuffed animals to clothing and a book on combat arts--Specifically, around archery. The teenager has done a ton for his self-esteem, and has on her own proven that she's already enough of a woman to handle a crowd of horny people at a poetry slam! She's even surprised him with her skill at entertaining, performing a monster-class spooky song to a large crowd of onlookers with ease... And apparently, now has children!

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Sumari Polaali]] : She was, and still is, his boss. For a while, they had a romantic thing going on, until she couldn't take it anymore and.. Basically bailed out of it. He wanted to keep things going, but she couldn't believe that Anton would ever love anyone aside from Kiipa, and so couldn't handle the relationship. He gave her time, and tried again months later, but though she was momentarily receptive, it was not to be.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Tikka Swift]] : The mischievous little brat who'd essentially saved his life, through and through again so early on. He became a reliable source of sugar cubes for her, and joined her free company when she invited him in. As far as he's concerned, if anything ever happened to her or any of her gaggle of children, he'd go on a rampage. Initially, after that original invitation, he considered an attempt at a relationship of sorts with her, but decided against it rather quickly, understanding just how young she was in actuality, and what her life was like--He didn't want to add to the complications.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Katja Hoax]] : Once upon a time, they fucked like bunnies over a contract deal. That broke, as did their relationship afterward--One that Anton tried hard to mend after he realized his errors. He failed in that endeavour, his own mind messing him up time and time again... She has since found herself in a relationship with a dragoon from Ishgard, who he has great respect for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Gen Quickpaw]] : Gen was one of Anton's favorite people to have around. He respected the man, even with as much shit as they threw at each other--He's now Kiipa's side-man, though it's more seeming like she's just been absorbed into Gen's family all in all. Gen is, for all intents and purposes a brother-in-law of sorts, being Kiipa's lover... And over time, Anton and he have figured things out between themselves, and are.. Friends, though not exactly best of.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Tallera Weaver]] : Crazy voodoo sorceress. Anton ran across her one day, and since then, every time they meet up, somethin' crazy happens--Or they count the whores inside the Quicksand. One or the other. She seems fair convinced that she's a zombie, but he's not convinced--He does know, however, that she /really/ likes watching the stars. Of course, this became quite a bit more clear when he realized that the woman was, in fact, an Ishgardian Astrologian--A star-mancer-mage-wizard. He's got quite a bit of respect for the girl, and what she's been able to pull off, lately. On top of all that, he now works with the crazy woman as his side job, hunting down exotic beasties for parts--And in turn, he hires her for jobs regarding more magical skill.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Misha Jinhri]] : Misha, Misha, Misha. They met as a result of Tikka jumping off a balcony and Anton following her, but they hit it off easily. And, with Leif dodging out of getting a drink with the three of them, they realized that they clicked fairly well... So, they went on a date. And then another one. And decided that, regardless of how fast they were or weren't going, they'd try their hand at being a couple. It didn't work out, but the two are still friends. Or.. They were, anyway. After a long stretch of nothing but disrespect, he's not sure what to do with her anymore.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Felix Cyprus]] : One of the first people he met in the Dreamers. A stoic guardsman, now turned.. Stoic fistfighter? He wasn't sure what to make of the tall, dark, and lovely man at times, but he did try to call the man a friend.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Jeros Redd]] : Jeros. Technically? Jeros was his superior in terms of both free and grand company. Anton worked with the Maelstrom--So did Jeros, only for much longer. Same, too, with the Dreamers. Nonetheless, Jeros is helping to get the big guy back into fighting shape, after a nasty run-in with a particularly devastating voidsent. Indeed, they very much teach each other. Recently, he's been helping the man put together his past, and helping him unfold his future as a trainee armorer.

: <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Runa Sweet]] : After some time without a trainee, Anton happened upon Runa at a beach party for Emmette's company.. And, one thing lead in to another, and the company leader essentially asked him to help teach Runa how to swing a sword, and perhaps get some finesse training while he was at it. Runa, as it was, seemed to be an attentive student and followed direction with minimal question... So far.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Appearance & Personality</div>===
:Commonly seen these days wearing what looks like a black bodysuit, though closer inspection shows a parting at the midsection and wrists, just clothing of a similar material. Over that, a purple or silver jacket, complete with tie. Outside his home, he always has a mask on, a seemingly magitek piece that he makes a lot of bold claims about, though whether those claims are true or not remains to be seen.

:During company affairs, he represents himself with a professional-looking knee-length silver coat, complete with a birdlike hood and mask combination that covers his head entirely. The Might & Magitek logo stands out proudly on his chest.

:Green eyes, black hair, and a ton of scars all over his tanned skin make up the rest of his appearance. Each scar bears it's own significance, and he'll likely tell the story if asked. His hair still retains the purple highlighting that Aurelia left as a prank, though he's since renewed the coloring, remembering a happier time. These days, he prefers to hide his scars, wearing only reserved clothing in public, even down to the fully face-covering mask. Even in friendly company, it's all or nothing--No mask or identifying clothing, to the point that he's dressed in some sort of swimwear... or the mask and full outfit.

:His experiences in the past few years have left their mark, and as a result Anton is a much more carefree individual, having decided to mostly retire from the dangerous monster hunting business... To settle down and become the tavernkeep he'd wanted to be. In this instance, it's a cafe--Not a tavern, but the end result is the same: Anton is happier, free to pursue his recipe experimentation and charity-work, and ultimately build a solid relationship with his partners.

:In all, this new life has left him so much less stressed out on a daily basis, though the addition of two students in his work retinue do throw a wrench in things... Good or bad, only time will tell.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Biography</div>===

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Early Childhood</div>====

:Reasonably unknown at present. Recent information suggests that his father was an Ala Mhigan refugee, his mother an Ul'dahn prostitute. Father disappeared, unknown causes--Assumed dead? Mother resorted to an endless routine of work to make ends meet.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Late Childhood/Teenager</div>====

:Only partially known at present. His mother became sick, almost definitely due to work habits. With his father out of the picture, Anton turned to thievery to help make money, to try and pay for medicine, but although he was able to pay off the fee for the medicine, he was required to work for the man who provided it in order to acquire it at the reduced price. Unfortunately, though, the medicine was a placebo, a fake, nothing but sugar pills--His mother died anyway. Anton tried to get revenge upon the dealer for giving him the shoddy medicine, but even more tragedy was thrown at him: His childhood girlfriend was forced to pay the price for his transgressions, first captured, then tortured to prove a point, and ultimately killed. Her death was kept a secret from Anton to try and keep him working for the dealer--Ever curious, though, Anton figured out what had happened fairly quickly, two of the dealer's thugs commenting on how one had 'gone too far'... And he left. He fled the city under the first caravan out, only revealing himself on arrival to Horizon, which gave the dealer, later, enough information to find that he had taken a boat out.

:Anton's time in La Noscea was an interesting one, starting with the cleaning crew at the Bismarck, where he was eventually promoted to acquisitions, one of the guys handling ingredient procurement, trips out to the outlying settlements to trade. During his time he learned plenty of recipes and a good amount of methodology during those years, which lead to experimentation in his private time--He even accepted lower pay in order to gain time specifically to learn more. To accommodate the lessened pay (so that he could make rent and meals) he turned back to what he had learned earlier in life: Thievery. The problem there, though, lay in the fact that there existed a ruleset for thievery in Limsa Lominsa, and Anton quickly learned what that way of life meant. His time with the rogue's guild cut into his ability to keep a steady job at the Bismarck, <i>and</i> learn about the culinary world, so he chose to abandon the former amicably, and take on more lessons in between jobs of roguery.

:He only had so long, though...

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Wilds</div>====

:The dealer had decided to expand his business out to La Noscea, and unfortunately for Anton, that meant he only had a limited amount of time before he was found out--Certainly he'd be remembered! Under cover of night, he left. Untrained as he was, though, he didn't know how to survive outside the city, and headed first for Costa Del Sol to try and gain meaningful employment as an apprentice chef out there. He was brought on as a trial, a temporary hire to see how he would do--And was found to not make the cut. From there, he ran into the jungle, the wilds, the nigh untamed greenery.

:It wasn't long before he started getting chased by the wildlife. At first it was easy, small birds and the like, but that didn't last: a coeurl had begun stalking him, and though it may have been a younger beast, and unsure of itself, it was still more than a match for the equally young knife-wielding ex-chef-learner. After two close encounters, Anton had managed to get himself up into a tree... And that was that. The coeurl was waiting, essentially starving him out, and the poor kid was sure he was dead, a goner, without any sort of reprieve.. But no, relief came in the form of a large roegadyn man, who not only dispatched the young beast with style, but helped Anton get down without breaking anything, and fed him nonetheless.

:The roegadyn called himself Inquisitive Mentor, and after listening to Anton's story, he took the young man home with him, a tribe--clan? Group? Tiny village? of other roegadyn up further into the jungle, into the mountains. There, for what felt like years, he stayed with them, learning how to survive in the wilds, how to distinguish between medicinal and poisonous plants, and most importantly, how to fight. He'd seen the gladiators fight, even tried to learn how to use a shield, not that it stuck with him. He could use those knives of his, but that wasn't exactly a great weapon against larger beasties that lived in the wilds of La Noscea. Anton was paired up with Mentor's son, Knotted Iron, as he was the best fit as a training partner for the hyur, being a smaller stature, younger roegadyn. They trained extensively on archery and axework, and the midlander even made an effort to show off how to use a shield... But it wasn't exactly a professional quality demonstration.

:Knotted Iron and Anton became fast friends, and regularly went on forays out into the wilds together, both to explore, to learn about the surrounding area, and to hunt. It was on one of these trips that they returned to the village... Only to find that it had been ransacked. No survivors that they could find, and anything that hadn't been taken was trashed, burnt and destroyed beyond any chance of recovery. Anton's time with the rogues suggested it was a band of pirates, and the village was near a river, with tracks leading to and from... But not who the pirates were.

:The only survivor they definitively knew about was Iron's father, Mentor, who had gone on one of his regular trips far out across the world, and was not due to return for over a month yet. They didn't know where he'd gone, but prior to leaving the big man had expressed interest in two areas: Kugane, in the Far East... And the Cataclysm damage site known as the Burning Wall. The two decided to split up, try and find Mentor to inform him of what had happened with Iron heading to the Far East, and Anton to Thanalan, as he already knew the area there. Anton... Did not mention his past to Iron, and had in fact figured he'd be mostly forgotten on his return there, given the time that had passed them by.
====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">The Return to Thanalan</div>====

:Anton's first stop on his arrival back in Vesper Bay was to pick up supplies and a chocobo, putting his thievery skills to great use amongst the denizens of the small town to quickly and quietly secure himself passage up to the Burning Wall... But there was no mention, not even a whisper, of Mentor having come through there. Disappointed, Anton headed back to Ul'dah to see about finding himself any more information. Instead, he found himself more misfortune: The dealer did indeed remember him. He was taken, tortured and... Once more, turned into a worker for the deranged lalafell. Anton didn't know any better, and was still afraid of the little man and his crew. He worked as a thug now, a debt collector, a thief, and on occasion.. A hitman. On more than one occasion, he ran into a mischevious miqo'te thief, but never got a name out of her, but over time her pranks helped break his conditioning to the lalafell, and when the dealer found that he'd been trading sugar cubes for scant conversation, Anton was brought back in for further breaking.

:All Anton remembers of that time is a quantity of body parts, blood everywhere, and the definitive, unquestionable knowledge that the dealer and his two main officers were dead.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Recent Past</div>====

:Turns out, that the thief had a name: [[Tikka Swift]]. After his final incident with the dealer, she pulled yet another prank on him, an attempt to steal his sword. She stuck around for an actual conversation this time, and in the end, invited Anton to join her free company, the Radical Dreamers. A name that assuredly makes not a lick of sense to him, but he didn't particularly care--He gained friends there. He gained family there. His experience with the dealer killed what memory he had of his prior life, and he fully embraced his new one. He worked as a melee instructor and chef for the most part, occasionally playing nursemaid to those with only superficial wounds when the true medical heroes, such as his adoptive sister, [[Kiipa Nulstat]], were busy. He regularly clashed with [[Gen Quickpaw]], the leader of the company.. Generally over matters of simple nature, yet unable to come to a simple conclusion. One minor facet that he enjoyed, though not an official position, is his job of wrangling the new folks in for a drink and an introduction. Between cooking and tending bar, treating wounds, and teaching, he was a regular in most walks of the estate life.

:He managed to gather himself up a girlfriend. This, unfortunately, didn't last nearly as long as anyone was hoping--Even bystanders had high hopes for the two, [[Misha Jinhri]] and Anton, but after only a month, Misha left on a quest of soul-searching, to find herself. When she came back, things had changed... And the two, while remaining pleasant friends, were no longer a couple as a result of the findings of that journey, and the time apart. His love-life has remained relatively shattered from then on, progressing onto a helpless puppy love over his best friend, to constant flings with folks from around the company and his side job with the Obsidian Coterie. He thought he'd found something in his boss, [[Sumari Polaali]], but that had turned south when she refused to believe that she could ever come out from under the shadow that Kiipa left.

:He'd tried to mend fences with any number of previous relationships, even trying his damndest to love the smith, [[Katja Hoax]], the person who helped keep him steady after Kiipa abandoned him.. But it was all for naught. His friendships had dwindled to a shadow of what they were, as had his romantic relationships.. His sister barely gave him the time of day, though her daughter, [[Inelaa Locte]] seemed to adore him.. In all of this, he managed to find a blooming flower of a girlfriend in [[Suna Rokuyari]], all by telling her to not take drugs from strangers..

:He was distraught when his sister fell ill, and pledged himself to doing anything and everything he could to find a way to free her from the voidsent infesting her body, but in the end, he felt helpless, and relegated himself to instead making sure her family, his nieces and nephews, were well taken care of.

:Multiple incidents related to his poor manners Anton was fired from the company, now known as Might and Magitek, and was left in a momentary lurch. He turned to sleeping in dark street corners, hunting larger and larger beasts to keep his mind off of life in general. Over time, [[Aurelia Aerowind]] the tiny cake-gobbling Au Ra murderlizard he'd met during an incident where he had to protect a student from a crazed swordswoman, dragged him to her friends.. And her friends brought him into their company. As a whole, those friends shoved Aurelia and Anton together as a couple rather hastily. During this time he still regularly visited his sister, sneaking around her guardian when necessary... But it did not last much longer, the sleeping sister or the relationship with Aurelia. Happily, Kiipa woke up, though a vastly changed person... And less happily, Anton and Aurelia broke things off. Neither of them were ready for a relationship.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Present</div>====

:For a while, Anton wandered from place to place, generally serving as an odd-job chef for people, a cook on the go. There was an attempt made to run a moogle-themed bar with some friends, but it didn't pan out very well. He kept up his martial teaching lessons, and one such student came back to bite him--In a good way. [[Lune Vormold]], the avid lance learner he'd taken on so long ago, who'd kept up with her lessons non-stop, decided that she wanted to go on a date with Anton, and from there a happy relationship blossomed and still, to this day, kept growing--He'd even proposed to her. At the moment, she was still stuck under contract with her job, but... Things change. With the money he'd made he eventually managed to establish a home of his own near the beach in the Mist, originally intending it just as a place to live, for him and Lune. An executive decision was made after some time, and he turned his new home into his own place: A cafe on the top level, with hidden living quarters underneath for himself. The cafe was originally established as 'Born to Hold Eatery'... But before it's doors even opened for the first time, while he was offering lessons out of his home still, an old acquaintance showed up at his door.

:[[Emmette Stringers]], the person who'd hired him to work for the Obsidian Coterie, once upon a time.. And then, subsequently, fired him without any sort of proper cause, only to offer his assistant at the time his job.. And then some. That's who was now just inside his home, asking about cooking lessons. They had a long talk, but eventually came to an agreement: Yes, he would teach her, but he was <i>not</i> going to go easy on her. He didn't think she'd take the lessons seriously, and figured he'd get rid of her that way.

:He was wrong. She not only took to those lessons seriously, she signed on to be his assistant at the newly branded Purple Pom Parlour cafe. Anton's luck was moving on up in the world. To compound things, the prior executive's demeanor had changed dramatically. She was a bountiful source of happiness, and flirted heavily with Anton regularly, to the point that issues arose between her and Lune... Only to be settled by the latter deciding that, if things were going to be like that, she would share.. But only with Emmette.

:Of course, as yet, nothing has come of that but ridiculous teasing and flirting, as Emmette was now engaged to one [[Ramius Raske]].

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> [[Lune Vormold]] : One of the most dutiful of his students, she still trains with Anton regularly--But he does not consider her a trainee anymore, instead a friend... And then some, given that he's since proposed to her at least once, and has stolen her away on many dates. Stolen indeed, as she was still under contract with the boss that had originally sent her off to Anton for training, the same boss who was oh-so-very strict about her whereabouts... Not that Anton cared, as he regularly kidnapped her off the manor grounds, an agreement in place with the head of the guard core hired to that building. Occasionally, Lune even works at the P3 cafe to help him out.

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> [[Emmette Stringers]] : Once upon a time, he worked for her as a temporary chef to get her culinary house in order. She fired him after a month, citing his inability to accomplish anything or even show up as her reasoning, when in reality he had worked with her company just about every day to get things in order, even going so far as to plan out and teach an entire new menu line that more fit the skills of her chef. After some time, the tables turned, and she came to Anton seeking, ironically, culinary instruction. She'd lost her company and her demeanor had changed to a much more meek individual.. At least at first. Over time, the two grew rather close, enough to threaten a hazard in his romantic life with Lune... But the lovely little spearwoman offered to share Anton with Emmette if it came to that. At current, no such thing has, but Emmette still works at the P3 cafe as Anton's assistant.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Kiipa Nulstat]] : The woman who's done so much to help Anton live a fulfilling life, and the one who he always feels the burning need to make proud. She was his sister, not by blood but by choice--And he loved her fiercely, knowing full well that if ever there came a time where a choice had to be made, her life or his, he'd not hesitate to keep her safe until his end.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Aurelia Aerowind]] : The little lady who kept him sane after he lost his job with the Radical Dreamers, they met in a bar, working together to take down a particularly murderous swordswoman... And were pushed together as a couple recently by one of Aurelia's friends, [[Mayuri Kotonoha]]. They dated for a while, but mutually decided that they weren't fit for each other, though Anton very much adores her still, the angry little cake-monster that she is.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Suna Rokuyari]] : All he'd said was that she shouldn't take drugs from strangers, no matter what they said the drugs could do. The side-effects could be terrifying... And sure enough, they were. The little lizard girl came to visit Anton at the Dreamer estate regularly afterward, eventually signing on as his assistant in chefliness... And from there, his lover. The relationship did not last long, unfortunately, as she felt that he deserved better than she could offer--But they are still great friends, nonetheless.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Attika Nianu]] : Attika was Anton's star student--Whether that's because she was the only one that stuck around, or because she actually does a good job controlling herself, who knows. She has since traveled to Ishgard and back, occasionally studying with Anton on further combat techniques.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Inelaa Locte]] : At first, she was just the target of his retrieval mission into the Shroud. As he started adding things up, though, it became more and more clear.. Inelaa was Kiipa's daughter. Being that Kiipa had adopted Anton as her brother, that made Inelaa his niece.. And he hasn't taken a single moment extra to start showering her in gifts, ranging from giant stuffed animals to clothing and a book on combat arts--Specifically, around archery. The teenager has done a ton for his self-esteem, and has on her own proven that she's already enough of a woman to handle a crowd of horny people at a poetry slam! She's even surprised him with her skill at entertaining, performing a monster-class spooky song to a large crowd of onlookers with ease... And apparently, now has children!

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Sumari Polaali]] : She was, and still is, his boss. For a while, they had a romantic thing going on, until she couldn't take it anymore and.. Basically bailed out of it. He wanted to keep things going, but she couldn't believe that Anton would ever love anyone aside from Kiipa, and so couldn't handle the relationship. He gave her time, and tried again months later, but though she was momentarily receptive, it was not to be.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Tikka Swift]] : The mischievous little brat who'd essentially saved his life, through and through again so early on. He became a reliable source of sugar cubes for her, and joined her free company when she invited him in. As far as he's concerned, if anything ever happened to her or any of her gaggle of children, he'd go on a rampage. Initially, after that original invitation, he considered an attempt at a relationship of sorts with her, but decided against it rather quickly, understanding just how young she was in actuality, and what her life was like--He didn't want to add to the complications.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Katja Hoax]] : Once upon a time, they fucked like bunnies over a contract deal. That broke, as did their relationship afterward--One that Anton tried hard to mend after he realized his errors. He failed in that endeavour, his own mind messing him up time and time again... She has since found herself in a relationship with a dragoon from Ishgard, who he has great respect for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Gen Quickpaw]] : Gen was one of Anton's favorite people to have around. He respected the man, even with as much shit as they threw at each other--He's now Kiipa's side-man, though it's more seeming like she's just been absorbed into Gen's family all in all. Gen is, for all intents and purposes a brother-in-law of sorts, being Kiipa's lover... And over time, Anton and he have figured things out between themselves, and are.. Friends, though not exactly best of.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Tallera Weaver]] : Crazy voodoo sorceress. Anton ran across her one day, and since then, every time they meet up, somethin' crazy happens--Or they count the whores inside the Quicksand. One or the other. She seems fair convinced that she's a zombie, but he's not convinced--He does know, however, that she /really/ likes watching the stars. Of course, this became quite a bit more clear when he realized that the woman was, in fact, an Ishgardian Astrologian--A star-mancer-mage-wizard. He's got quite a bit of respect for the girl, and what she's been able to pull off, lately. On top of all that, he now works with the crazy woman as his side job, hunting down exotic beasties for parts--And in turn, he hires her for jobs regarding more magical skill.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Misha Jinhri]] : Misha, Misha, Misha. They met as a result of Tikka jumping off a balcony and Anton following her, but they hit it off easily. And, with Leif dodging out of getting a drink with the three of them, they realized that they clicked fairly well... So, they went on a date. And then another one. And decided that, regardless of how fast they were or weren't going, they'd try their hand at being a couple. It didn't work out, but the two are still friends. Or.. They were, anyway. After a long stretch of nothing but disrespect, he's not sure what to do with her anymore.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Felix Cyprus]] : One of the first people he met in the Dreamers. A stoic guardsman, now turned.. Stoic fistfighter? He wasn't sure what to make of the tall, dark, and lovely man at times, but he did try to call the man a friend.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Jeros Redd]] : Jeros. Technically? Jeros was his superior in terms of both free and grand company. Anton worked with the Maelstrom--So did Jeros, only for much longer. Same, too, with the Dreamers. Nonetheless, Jeros is helping to get the big guy back into fighting shape, after a nasty run-in with a particularly devastating voidsent. Indeed, they very much teach each other. Recently, he's been helping the man put together his past, and helping him unfold his future as a trainee armorer.

: <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Runa Sweet]] : After some time without a trainee, Anton happened upon Runa at a beach party for Emmette's company.. And, one thing lead in to another, and the company leader essentially asked him to help teach Runa how to swing a sword, and perhaps get some finesse training while he was at it. Runa, as it was, seemed to be an attentive student and followed direction with minimal question... So far.

Once a struggling bandit of a child, then an orphaned survivor stranded in the jungle, he is now one with the pan and axe, a well-progressed triumph over his former lives.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Appearance & Personality</div>===
:Commonly seen these days wearing what looks like a black bodysuit, though closer inspection shows a parting at the midsection and wrists, just clothing of a similar material. Over that, a purple or silver jacket, complete with tie. Outside his home, he always has a mask on, a seemingly magitek piece that he makes a lot of bold claims about, though whether those claims are true or not remains to be seen.

:During company affairs, he represents himself with a professional-looking knee-length silver coat, complete with a birdlike hood and mask combination that covers his head entirely. The Might & Magitek logo stands out proudly on his chest.

:Green eyes, black hair, and a ton of scars all over his tanned skin make up the rest of his appearance. Each scar bears it's own significance, and he'll likely tell the story if asked. His hair still retains the purple highlighting that Aurelia left as a prank, though he's since renewed the coloring, remembering a happier time. These days, he prefers to hide his scars, wearing only reserved clothing in public, even down to the fully face-covering mask. Even in friendly company, it's all or nothing--No mask or identifying clothing, to the point that he's dressed in some sort of swimwear... or the mask and full outfit.

:His experiences in the past few years have left their mark, and as a result Anton is a much more carefree individual, having decided to mostly retire from the dangerous monster hunting business... To settle down and become the tavernkeep he'd wanted to be. In this instance, it's a cafe--Not a tavern, but the end result is the same: Anton is happier, free to pursue his recipe experimentation and charity-work, and ultimately build a solid relationship with his partners.

:In all, this new life has left him so much less stressed out on a daily basis, though the addition of two students in his work retinue do throw a wrench in things... Good or bad, only time will tell.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Biography</div>===

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Early Childhood</div>====

:Reasonably unknown at present. Recent information suggests that his father was an Ala Mhigan refugee, his mother an Ul'dahn prostitute. Father disappeared, unknown causes--Assumed dead? Mother resorted to an endless routine of work to make ends meet.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Late Childhood/Teenager</div>====

:Only partially known at present. His mother became sick, almost definitely due to work habits. With his father out of the picture, Anton turned to thievery to help make money, to try and pay for medicine, but although he was able to pay off the fee for the medicine, he was required to work for the man who provided it in order to acquire it at the reduced price. Unfortunately, though, the medicine was a placebo, a fake, nothing but sugar pills--His mother died anyway. Anton tried to get revenge upon the dealer for giving him the shoddy medicine, but even more tragedy was thrown at him: His childhood girlfriend was forced to pay the price for his transgressions, first captured, then tortured to prove a point, and ultimately killed. Her death was kept a secret from Anton to try and keep him working for the dealer--Ever curious, though, Anton figured out what had happened fairly quickly, two of the dealer's thugs commenting on how one had 'gone too far'... And he left. He fled the city under the first caravan out, only revealing himself on arrival to Horizon, which gave the dealer, later, enough information to find that he had taken a boat out.

:Anton's time in La Noscea was an interesting one, starting with the cleaning crew at the Bismarck, where he was eventually promoted to acquisitions, one of the guys handling ingredient procurement, trips out to the outlying settlements to trade. During his time he learned plenty of recipes and a good amount of methodology during those years, which lead to experimentation in his private time--He even accepted lower pay in order to gain time specifically to learn more. To accommodate the lessened pay (so that he could make rent and meals) he turned back to what he had learned earlier in life: Thievery. The problem there, though, lay in the fact that there existed a ruleset for thievery in Limsa Lominsa, and Anton quickly learned what that way of life meant. His time with the rogue's guild cut into his ability to keep a steady job at the Bismarck, <i>and</i> learn about the culinary world, so he chose to abandon the former amicably, and take on more lessons in between jobs of roguery.

:He only had so long, though...

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Wilds</div>====

:The dealer had decided to expand his business out to La Noscea, and unfortunately for Anton, that meant he only had a limited amount of time before he was found out--Certainly he'd be remembered! Under cover of night, he left. Untrained as he was, though, he didn't know how to survive outside the city, and headed first for Costa Del Sol to try and gain meaningful employment as an apprentice chef out there. He was brought on as a trial, a temporary hire to see how he would do--And was found to not make the cut. From there, he ran into the jungle, the wilds, the nigh untamed greenery.

:It wasn't long before he started getting chased by the wildlife. At first it was easy, small birds and the like, but that didn't last: a coeurl had begun stalking him, and though it may have been a younger beast, and unsure of itself, it was still more than a match for the equally young knife-wielding ex-chef-learner. After two close encounters, Anton had managed to get himself up into a tree... And that was that. The coeurl was waiting, essentially starving him out, and the poor kid was sure he was dead, a goner, without any sort of reprieve.. But no, relief came in the form of a large roegadyn man, who not only dispatched the young beast with style, but helped Anton get down without breaking anything, and fed him nonetheless.

:The roegadyn called himself Inquisitive Mentor, and after listening to Anton's story, he took the young man home with him, a tribe--clan? Group? Tiny village? of other roegadyn up further into the jungle, into the mountains. There, for what felt like years, he stayed with them, learning how to survive in the wilds, how to distinguish between medicinal and poisonous plants, and most importantly, how to fight. He'd seen the gladiators fight, even tried to learn how to use a shield, not that it stuck with him. He could use those knives of his, but that wasn't exactly a great weapon against larger beasties that lived in the wilds of La Noscea. Anton was paired up with Mentor's son, Knotted Iron, as he was the best fit as a training partner for the hyur, being a smaller stature, younger roegadyn. They trained extensively on archery and axework, and the midlander even made an effort to show off how to use a shield... But it wasn't exactly a professional quality demonstration.

:Knotted Iron and Anton became fast friends, and regularly went on forays out into the wilds together, both to explore, to learn about the surrounding area, and to hunt. It was on one of these trips that they returned to the village... Only to find that it had been ransacked. No survivors that they could find, and anything that hadn't been taken was trashed, burnt and destroyed beyond any chance of recovery. Anton's time with the rogues suggested it was a band of pirates, and the village was near a river, with tracks leading to and from... But not who the pirates were.

:The only survivor they definitively knew about was Iron's father, Mentor, who had gone on one of his regular trips far out across the world, and was not due to return for over a month yet. They didn't know where he'd gone, but prior to leaving the big man had expressed interest in two areas: Kugane, in the Far East... And the Cataclysm damage site known as the Burning Wall. The two decided to split up, try and find Mentor to inform him of what had happened with Iron heading to the Far East, and Anton to Thanalan, as he already knew the area there. Anton... Did not mention his past to Iron, and had in fact figured he'd be mostly forgotten on his return there, given the time that had passed them by.
====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">The Return to Thanalan</div>====

:Anton's first stop on his arrival back in Vesper Bay was to pick up supplies and a chocobo, putting his thievery skills to great use amongst the denizens of the small town to quickly and quietly secure himself passage up to the Burning Wall... But there was no mention, not even a whisper, of Mentor having come through there. Disappointed, Anton headed back to Ul'dah to see about finding himself any more information. Instead, he found himself more misfortune: The dealer did indeed remember him. He was taken, tortured and... Once more, turned into a worker for the deranged lalafell. Anton didn't know any better, and was still afraid of the little man and his crew. He worked as a thug now, a debt collector, a thief, and on occasion.. A hitman. On more than one occasion, he ran into a mischevious miqo'te thief, but never got a name out of her, but over time her pranks helped break his conditioning to the lalafell, and when the dealer found that he'd been trading sugar cubes for scant conversation, Anton was brought back in for further breaking.

:All Anton remembers of that time is a quantity of body parts, blood everywhere, and the definitive, unquestionable knowledge that the dealer and his two main officers were dead.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Recent Past</div>====

:Turns out, that the thief had a name: [[Tikka Swift]]. After his final incident with the dealer, she pulled yet another prank on him, an attempt to steal his sword. She stuck around for an actual conversation this time, and in the end, invited Anton to join her free company, the Radical Dreamers. A name that assuredly makes not a lick of sense to him, but he didn't particularly care--He gained friends there. He gained family there. His experience with the dealer killed what memory he had of his prior life, and he fully embraced his new one. He worked as a melee instructor and chef for the most part, occasionally playing nursemaid to those with only superficial wounds when the true medical heroes, such as his adoptive sister, [[Kiipa Nulstat]], were busy. He regularly clashed with [[Gen Quickpaw]], the leader of the company.. Generally over matters of simple nature, yet unable to come to a simple conclusion. One minor facet that he enjoyed, though not an official position, is his job of wrangling the new folks in for a drink and an introduction. Between cooking and tending bar, treating wounds, and teaching, he was a regular in most walks of the estate life.

:He managed to gather himself up a girlfriend. This, unfortunately, didn't last nearly as long as anyone was hoping--Even bystanders had high hopes for the two, [[Misha Jinhri]] and Anton, but after only a month, Misha left on a quest of soul-searching, to find herself. When she came back, things had changed... And the two, while remaining pleasant friends, were no longer a couple as a result of the findings of that journey, and the time apart. His love-life has remained relatively shattered from then on, progressing onto a helpless puppy love over his best friend, to constant flings with folks from around the company and his side job with the Obsidian Coterie. He thought he'd found something in his boss, [[Sumari Polaali]], but that had turned south when she refused to believe that she could ever come out from under the shadow that Kiipa left.

:He'd tried to mend fences with any number of previous relationships, even trying his damndest to love the smith, [[Katja Hoax]], the person who helped keep him steady after Kiipa abandoned him.. But it was all for naught. His friendships had dwindled to a shadow of what they were, as had his romantic relationships.. His sister barely gave him the time of day, though her daughter, [[Inelaa Locte]] seemed to adore him.. In all of this, he managed to find a blooming flower of a girlfriend in [[Suna Rokuyari]], all by telling her to not take drugs from strangers..

:He was distraught when his sister fell ill, and pledged himself to doing anything and everything he could to find a way to free her from the voidsent infesting her body, but in the end, he felt helpless, and relegated himself to instead making sure her family, his nieces and nephews, were well taken care of.

:Multiple incidents related to his poor manners Anton was fired from the company, now known as Might and Magitek, and was left in a momentary lurch. He turned to sleeping in dark street corners, hunting larger and larger beasts to keep his mind off of life in general. Over time, [[Aurelia Aerowind]] the tiny cake-gobbling Au Ra murderlizard he'd met during an incident where he had to protect a student from a crazed swordswoman, dragged him to her friends.. And her friends brought him into their company. As a whole, those friends shoved Aurelia and Anton together as a couple rather hastily. During this time he still regularly visited his sister, sneaking around her guardian when necessary... But it did not last much longer, the sleeping sister or the relationship with Aurelia. Happily, Kiipa woke up, though a vastly changed person... And less happily, Anton and Aurelia broke things off. Neither of them were ready for a relationship.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Present</div>====

:For a while, Anton wandered from place to place, generally serving as an odd-job chef for people, a cook on the go. There was an attempt made to run a moogle-themed bar with some friends, but it didn't pan out very well. He kept up his martial teaching lessons, and one such student came back to bite him--In a good way. [[Lune Vormold]], the avid lance learner he'd taken on so long ago, who'd kept up with her lessons non-stop, decided that she wanted to go on a date with Anton, and from there a happy relationship blossomed and still, to this day, kept growing--He'd even proposed to her. At the moment, she was still stuck under contract with her job, but... Things change. With the money he'd made he eventually managed to establish a home of his own near the beach in the Mist, originally intending it just as a place to live, for him and Lune. An executive decision was made after some time, and he turned his new home into his own place: A cafe on the top level, with hidden living quarters underneath for himself. The cafe was originally established as 'Born to Hold Eatery'... But before it's doors even opened for the first time, while he was offering lessons out of his home still, an old acquaintance showed up at his door.

:[[Emmette Stringers]], the person who'd hired him to work for the Obsidian Coterie, once upon a time.. And then, subsequently, fired him without any sort of proper cause, only to offer his assistant at the time his job.. And then some. That's who was now just inside his home, asking about cooking lessons. They had a long talk, but eventually came to an agreement: Yes, he would teach her, but he was <i>not</i> going to go easy on her. He didn't think she'd take the lessons seriously, and figured he'd get rid of her that way.

:He was wrong. She not only took to those lessons seriously, she signed on to be his assistant at the newly branded Purple Pom Parlour cafe. Anton's luck was moving on up in the world. To compound things, the prior executive's demeanor had changed dramatically. She was a bountiful source of happiness, and flirted heavily with Anton regularly, to the point that issues arose between her and Lune... Only to be settled by the latter deciding that, if things were going to be like that, she would share.. But only with Emmette.

:Of course, as yet, nothing has come of that but ridiculous teasing and flirting, as Emmette was now engaged to one [[Ramius Raske]].

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> [[Lune Vormold]] : One of the most dutiful of his students, she still trains with Anton regularly--But he does not consider her a trainee anymore, instead a friend... And then some, given that he's since proposed to her at least once, and has stolen her away on many dates. Stolen indeed, as she was still under contract with the boss that had originally sent her off to Anton for training, the same boss who was oh-so-very strict about her whereabouts... Not that Anton cared, as he regularly kidnapped her off the manor grounds, an agreement in place with the head of the guard core hired to that building. Occasionally, Lune even works at the P3 cafe to help him out.

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> [[Emmette Stringers]] : Once upon a time, he worked for her as a temporary chef to get her culinary house in order. She fired him after a month, citing his inability to accomplish anything or even show up as her reasoning, when in reality he had worked with her company just about every day to get things in order, even going so far as to plan out and teach an entire new menu line that more fit the skills of her chef. After some time, the tables turned, and she came to Anton seeking, ironically, culinary instruction. She'd lost her company and her demeanor had changed to a much more meek individual.. At least at first. Over time, the two grew rather close, enough to threaten a hazard in his romantic life with Lune... But the lovely little spearwoman offered to share Anton with Emmette if it came to that. At current, no such thing has, but Emmette still works at the P3 cafe as Anton's assistant.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Kiipa Nulstat]] : The woman who's done so much to help Anton live a fulfilling life, and the one who he always feels the burning need to make proud. She was his sister, not by blood but by choice--And he loved her fiercely, knowing full well that if ever there came a time where a choice had to be made, her life or his, he'd not hesitate to keep her safe until his end.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Aurelia Aerowind]] : The little lady who kept him sane after he lost his job with the Radical Dreamers, they met in a bar, working together to take down a particularly murderous swordswoman... And were pushed together as a couple recently by one of Aurelia's friends, [[Mayuri Kotonoha]]. They dated for a while, but mutually decided that they weren't fit for each other, though Anton very much adores her still, the angry little cake-monster that she is.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Suna Rokuyari]] : All he'd said was that she shouldn't take drugs from strangers, no matter what they said the drugs could do. The side-effects could be terrifying... And sure enough, they were. The little lizard girl came to visit Anton at the Dreamer estate regularly afterward, eventually signing on as his assistant in chefliness... And from there, his lover. The relationship did not last long, unfortunately, as she felt that he deserved better than she could offer--But they are still great friends, nonetheless.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Attika Nianu]] : Attika was Anton's star student--Whether that's because she was the only one that stuck around, or because she actually does a good job controlling herself, who knows. She has since traveled to Ishgard and back, occasionally studying with Anton on further combat techniques.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Inelaa Locte]] : At first, she was just the target of his retrieval mission into the Shroud. As he started adding things up, though, it became more and more clear.. Inelaa was Kiipa's daughter. Being that Kiipa had adopted Anton as her brother, that made Inelaa his niece.. And he hasn't taken a single moment extra to start showering her in gifts, ranging from giant stuffed animals to clothing and a book on combat arts--Specifically, around archery. The teenager has done a ton for his self-esteem, and has on her own proven that she's already enough of a woman to handle a crowd of horny people at a poetry slam! She's even surprised him with her skill at entertaining, performing a monster-class spooky song to a large crowd of onlookers with ease... And apparently, now has children!

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Sumari Polaali]] : She was, and still is, his boss. For a while, they had a romantic thing going on, until she couldn't take it anymore and.. Basically bailed out of it. He wanted to keep things going, but she couldn't believe that Anton would ever love anyone aside from Kiipa, and so couldn't handle the relationship. He gave her time, and tried again months later, but though she was momentarily receptive, it was not to be.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Tikka Swift]] : The mischievous little brat who'd essentially saved his life, through and through again so early on. He became a reliable source of sugar cubes for her, and joined her free company when she invited him in. As far as he's concerned, if anything ever happened to her or any of her gaggle of children, he'd go on a rampage. Initially, after that original invitation, he considered an attempt at a relationship of sorts with her, but decided against it rather quickly, understanding just how young she was in actuality, and what her life was like--He didn't want to add to the complications.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Katja Hoax]] : Once upon a time, they fucked like bunnies over a contract deal. That broke, as did their relationship afterward--One that Anton tried hard to mend after he realized his errors. He failed in that endeavour, his own mind messing him up time and time again... She has since found herself in a relationship with a dragoon from Ishgard, who he has great respect for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Gen Quickpaw]] : Gen was one of Anton's favorite people to have around. He respected the man, even with as much shit as they threw at each other--He's now Kiipa's side-man, though it's more seeming like she's just been absorbed into Gen's family all in all. Gen is, for all intents and purposes a brother-in-law of sorts, being Kiipa's lover... And over time, Anton and he have figured things out between themselves, and are.. Friends, though not exactly best of.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Tallera Weaver]] : Crazy voodoo sorceress. Anton ran across her one day, and since then, every time they meet up, somethin' crazy happens--Or they count the whores inside the Quicksand. One or the other. She seems fair convinced that she's a zombie, but he's not convinced--He does know, however, that she /really/ likes watching the stars. Of course, this became quite a bit more clear when he realized that the woman was, in fact, an Ishgardian Astrologian--A star-mancer-mage-wizard. He's got quite a bit of respect for the girl, and what she's been able to pull off, lately. On top of all that, he now works with the crazy woman as his side job, hunting down exotic beasties for parts--And in turn, he hires her for jobs regarding more magical skill.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Misha Jinhri]] : Misha, Misha, Misha. They met as a result of Tikka jumping off a balcony and Anton following her, but they hit it off easily. And, with Leif dodging out of getting a drink with the three of them, they realized that they clicked fairly well... So, they went on a date. And then another one. And decided that, regardless of how fast they were or weren't going, they'd try their hand at being a couple. It didn't work out, but the two are still friends. Or.. They were, anyway. After a long stretch of nothing but disrespect, he's not sure what to do with her anymore.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Felix Cyprus]] : One of the first people he met in the Dreamers. A stoic guardsman, now turned.. Stoic fistfighter? He wasn't sure what to make of the tall, dark, and lovely man at times, but he did try to call the man a friend.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Jeros Redd]] : Jeros. Technically? Jeros was his superior in terms of both free and grand company. Anton worked with the Maelstrom--So did Jeros, only for much longer. Same, too, with the Dreamers. Nonetheless, Jeros is helping to get the big guy back into fighting shape, after a nasty run-in with a particularly devastating voidsent. Indeed, they very much teach each other. Recently, he's been helping the man put together his past, and helping him unfold his future as a trainee armorer.

: <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Runa Sweet]] : After some time without a trainee, Anton happened upon Runa at a beach party for Emmette's company.. And, one thing lead in to another, and the company leader essentially asked him to help teach Runa how to swing a sword, and perhaps get some finesse training while he was at it. Runa, as it was, seemed to be an attentive student and followed direction with minimal question... So far.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Appearance & Personality</div>===
:Commonly seen these days wearing what looks like a black bodysuit, though closer inspection shows a parting at the midsection and wrists, just clothing of a similar material. Over that, a purple or silver jacket, complete with tie. Outside his home, he always has a mask on, a seemingly magitek piece that he makes a lot of bold claims about, though whether those claims are true or not remains to be seen.

:During company affairs, he represents himself with a professional-looking knee-length silver coat, complete with a birdlike hood and mask combination that covers his head entirely. The Might & Magitek logo stands out proudly on his chest.

:Green eyes, black hair, and a ton of scars all over his tanned skin make up the rest of his appearance. Each scar bears it's own significance, and he'll likely tell the story if asked. His hair still retains the purple highlighting that Aurelia left as a prank, though he's since renewed the coloring, remembering a happier time. These days, he prefers to hide his scars, wearing only reserved clothing in public, even down to the fully face-covering mask. Even in friendly company, it's all or nothing--No mask or identifying clothing, to the point that he's dressed in some sort of swimwear... or the mask and full outfit.

:His experiences in the past few years have left their mark, and as a result Anton is a much more carefree individual, having decided to mostly retire from the dangerous monster hunting business... To settle down and become the tavernkeep he'd wanted to be. In this instance, it's a cafe--Not a tavern, but the end result is the same: Anton is happier, free to pursue his recipe experimentation and charity-work, and ultimately build a solid relationship with his partners.

:In all, this new life has left him so much less stressed out on a daily basis, though the addition of two students in his work retinue do throw a wrench in things... Good or bad, only time will tell.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Biography</div>===

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Early Childhood</div>====

:Reasonably unknown at present. Recent information suggests that his father was an Ala Mhigan refugee, his mother an Ul'dahn prostitute. Father disappeared, unknown causes--Assumed dead? Mother resorted to an endless routine of work to make ends meet.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Late Childhood/Teenager</div>====

:Only partially known at present. His mother became sick, almost definitely due to work habits. With his father out of the picture, Anton turned to thievery to help make money, to try and pay for medicine, but although he was able to pay off the fee for the medicine, he was required to work for the man who provided it in order to acquire it at the reduced price. Unfortunately, though, the medicine was a placebo, a fake, nothing but sugar pills--His mother died anyway. Anton tried to get revenge upon the dealer for giving him the shoddy medicine, but even more tragedy was thrown at him: His childhood girlfriend was forced to pay the price for his transgressions, first captured, then tortured to prove a point, and ultimately killed. Her death was kept a secret from Anton to try and keep him working for the dealer--Ever curious, though, Anton figured out what had happened fairly quickly, two of the dealer's thugs commenting on how one had 'gone too far'... And he left. He fled the city under the first caravan out, only revealing himself on arrival to Horizon, which gave the dealer, later, enough information to find that he had taken a boat out.

:Anton's time in La Noscea was an interesting one, starting with the cleaning crew at the Bismarck, where he was eventually promoted to acquisitions, one of the guys handling ingredient procurement, trips out to the outlying settlements to trade. During his time he learned plenty of recipes and a good amount of methodology during those years, which lead to experimentation in his private time--He even accepted lower pay in order to gain time specifically to learn more. To accommodate the lessened pay (so that he could make rent and meals) he turned back to what he had learned earlier in life: Thievery. The problem there, though, lay in the fact that there existed a ruleset for thievery in Limsa Lominsa, and Anton quickly learned what that way of life meant. His time with the rogue's guild cut into his ability to keep a steady job at the Bismarck, <i>and</i> learn about the culinary world, so he chose to abandon the former amicably, and take on more lessons in between jobs of roguery.

:He only had so long, though...

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Wilds</div>====

:The dealer had decided to expand his business out to La Noscea, and unfortunately for Anton, that meant he only had a limited amount of time before he was found out--Certainly he'd be remembered! Under cover of night, he left. Untrained as he was, though, he didn't know how to survive outside the city, and headed first for Costa Del Sol to try and gain meaningful employment as an apprentice chef out there. He was brought on as a trial, a temporary hire to see how he would do--And was found to not make the cut. From there, he ran into the jungle, the wilds, the nigh untamed greenery.

:It wasn't long before he started getting chased by the wildlife. At first it was easy, small birds and the like, but that didn't last: a coeurl had begun stalking him, and though it may have been a younger beast, and unsure of itself, it was still more than a match for the equally young knife-wielding ex-chef-learner. After two close encounters, Anton had managed to get himself up into a tree... And that was that. The coeurl was waiting, essentially starving him out, and the poor kid was sure he was dead, a goner, without any sort of reprieve.. But no, relief came in the form of a large roegadyn man, who not only dispatched the young beast with style, but helped Anton get down without breaking anything, and fed him nonetheless.

:The roegadyn called himself Inquisitive Mentor, and after listening to Anton's story, he took the young man home with him, a tribe--clan? Group? Tiny village? of other roegadyn up further into the jungle, into the mountains. There, for what felt like years, he stayed with them, learning how to survive in the wilds, how to distinguish between medicinal and poisonous plants, and most importantly, how to fight. He'd seen the gladiators fight, even tried to learn how to use a shield, not that it stuck with him. He could use those knives of his, but that wasn't exactly a great weapon against larger beasties that lived in the wilds of La Noscea. Anton was paired up with Mentor's son, Knotted Iron, as he was the best fit as a training partner for the hyur, being a smaller stature, younger roegadyn. They trained extensively on archery and axework, and the midlander even made an effort to show off how to use a shield... But it wasn't exactly a professional quality demonstration.

:Knotted Iron and Anton became fast friends, and regularly went on forays out into the wilds together, both to explore, to learn about the surrounding area, and to hunt. It was on one of these trips that they returned to the village... Only to find that it had been ransacked. No survivors that they could find, and anything that hadn't been taken was trashed, burnt and destroyed beyond any chance of recovery. Anton's time with the rogues suggested it was a band of pirates, and the village was near a river, with tracks leading to and from... But not who the pirates were.

:The only survivor they definitively knew about was Iron's father, Mentor, who had gone on one of his regular trips far out across the world, and was not due to return for over a month yet. They didn't know where he'd gone, but prior to leaving the big man had expressed interest in two areas: Kugane, in the Far East... And the Cataclysm damage site known as the Burning Wall. The two decided to split up, try and find Mentor to inform him of what had happened with Iron heading to the Far East, and Anton to Thanalan, as he already knew the area there. Anton... Did not mention his past to Iron, and had in fact figured he'd be mostly forgotten on his return there, given the time that had passed them by.
====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">The Return to Thanalan</div>====

:Anton's first stop on his arrival back in Vesper Bay was to pick up supplies and a chocobo, putting his thievery skills to great use amongst the denizens of the small town to quickly and quietly secure himself passage up to the Burning Wall... But there was no mention, not even a whisper, of Mentor having come through there. Disappointed, Anton headed back to Ul'dah to see about finding himself any more information. Instead, he found himself more misfortune: The dealer did indeed remember him. He was taken, tortured and... Once more, turned into a worker for the deranged lalafell. Anton didn't know any better, and was still afraid of the little man and his crew. He worked as a thug now, a debt collector, a thief, and on occasion.. A hitman. On more than one occasion, he ran into a mischevious miqo'te thief, but never got a name out of her, but over time her pranks helped break his conditioning to the lalafell, and when the dealer found that he'd been trading sugar cubes for scant conversation, Anton was brought back in for further breaking.

:All Anton remembers of that time is a quantity of body parts, blood everywhere, and the definitive, unquestionable knowledge that the dealer and his two main officers were dead.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Recent Past</div>====

:Turns out, that the thief had a name: [[Tikka Swift]]. After his final incident with the dealer, she pulled yet another prank on him, an attempt to steal his sword. She stuck around for an actual conversation this time, and in the end, invited Anton to join her free company, the Radical Dreamers. A name that assuredly makes not a lick of sense to him, but he didn't particularly care--He gained friends there. He gained family there. His experience with the dealer killed what memory he had of his prior life, and he fully embraced his new one. He worked as a melee instructor and chef for the most part, occasionally playing nursemaid to those with only superficial wounds when the true medical heroes, such as his adoptive sister, [[Kiipa Nulstat]], were busy. He regularly clashed with [[Gen Quickpaw]], the leader of the company.. Generally over matters of simple nature, yet unable to come to a simple conclusion. One minor facet that he enjoyed, though not an official position, is his job of wrangling the new folks in for a drink and an introduction. Between cooking and tending bar, treating wounds, and teaching, he was a regular in most walks of the estate life.

:He managed to gather himself up a girlfriend. This, unfortunately, didn't last nearly as long as anyone was hoping--Even bystanders had high hopes for the two, [[Misha Jinhri]] and Anton, but after only a month, Misha left on a quest of soul-searching, to find herself. When she came back, things had changed... And the two, while remaining pleasant friends, were no longer a couple as a result of the findings of that journey, and the time apart. His love-life has remained relatively shattered from then on, progressing onto a helpless puppy love over his best friend, to constant flings with folks from around the company and his side job with the Obsidian Coterie. He thought he'd found something in his boss, [[Sumari Polaali]], but that had turned south when she refused to believe that she could ever come out from under the shadow that Kiipa left.

:He'd tried to mend fences with any number of previous relationships, even trying his damndest to love the smith, [[Katja Hoax]], the person who helped keep him steady after Kiipa abandoned him.. But it was all for naught. His friendships had dwindled to a shadow of what they were, as had his romantic relationships.. His sister barely gave him the time of day, though her daughter, [[Inelaa Locte]] seemed to adore him.. In all of this, he managed to find a blooming flower of a girlfriend in [[Suna Rokuyari]], all by telling her to not take drugs from strangers..

:He was distraught when his sister fell ill, and pledged himself to doing anything and everything he could to find a way to free her from the voidsent infesting her body, but in the end, he felt helpless, and relegated himself to instead making sure her family, his nieces and nephews, were well taken care of.

:Multiple incidents related to his poor manners Anton was fired from the company, now known as Might and Magitek, and was left in a momentary lurch. He turned to sleeping in dark street corners, hunting larger and larger beasts to keep his mind off of life in general. Over time, [[Aurelia Aerowind]] the tiny cake-gobbling Au Ra murderlizard he'd met during an incident where he had to protect a student from a crazed swordswoman, dragged him to her friends.. And her friends brought him into their company. As a whole, those friends shoved Aurelia and Anton together as a couple rather hastily. During this time he still regularly visited his sister, sneaking around her guardian when necessary... But it did not last much longer, the sleeping sister or the relationship with Aurelia. Happily, Kiipa woke up, though a vastly changed person... And less happily, Anton and Aurelia broke things off. Neither of them were ready for a relationship.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Present</div>====

:For a while, Anton wandered from place to place, generally serving as an odd-job chef for people, a cook on the go. There was an attempt made to run a moogle-themed bar with some friends, but it didn't pan out very well. He kept up his martial teaching lessons, and one such student came back to bite him--In a good way. [[Lune Vormold]], the avid lance learner he'd taken on so long ago, who'd kept up with her lessons non-stop, decided that she wanted to go on a date with Anton, and from there a happy relationship blossomed and still, to this day, kept growing--He'd even proposed to her. At the moment, she was still stuck under contract with her job, but... Things change. With the money he'd made he eventually managed to establish a home of his own near the beach in the Mist, originally intending it just as a place to live, for him and Lune. An executive decision was made after some time, and he turned his new home into his own place: A cafe on the top level, with hidden living quarters underneath for himself. The cafe was originally established as 'Born to Hold Eatery'... But before it's doors even opened for the first time, while he was offering lessons out of his home still, an old acquaintance showed up at his door.

:[[Emmette Stringers]], the person who'd hired him to work for the Obsidian Coterie, once upon a time.. And then, subsequently, fired him without any sort of proper cause, only to offer his assistant at the time his job.. And then some. That's who was now just inside his home, asking about cooking lessons. They had a long talk, but eventually came to an agreement: Yes, he would teach her, but he was <i>not</i> going to go easy on her. He didn't think she'd take the lessons seriously, and figured he'd get rid of her that way.

:He was wrong. She not only took to those lessons seriously, she signed on to be his assistant at the newly branded Purple Pom Parlour cafe. Anton's luck was moving on up in the world. To compound things, the prior executive's demeanor had changed dramatically. She was a bountiful source of happiness, and flirted heavily with Anton regularly, to the point that issues arose between her and Lune... Only to be settled by the latter deciding that, if things were going to be like that, she would share.. But only with Emmette.

:Of course, as yet, nothing has come of that but ridiculous teasing and flirting, as Emmette was now engaged to one [[Ramius Raske]].

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> [[Lune Vormold]] : One of the most dutiful of his students, she still trains with Anton regularly--But he does not consider her a trainee anymore, instead a friend... And then some, given that he's since proposed to her at least once, and has stolen her away on many dates. Stolen indeed, as she was still under contract with the boss that had originally sent her off to Anton for training, the same boss who was oh-so-very strict about her whereabouts... Not that Anton cared, as he regularly kidnapped her off the manor grounds, an agreement in place with the head of the guard core hired to that building. Occasionally, Lune even works at the P3 cafe to help him out.

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> [[Emmette Stringers]] : Once upon a time, he worked for her as a temporary chef to get her culinary house in order. She fired him after a month, citing his inability to accomplish anything or even show up as her reasoning, when in reality he had worked with her company just about every day to get things in order, even going so far as to plan out and teach an entire new menu line that more fit the skills of her chef. After some time, the tables turned, and she came to Anton seeking, ironically, culinary instruction. She'd lost her company and her demeanor had changed to a much more meek individual.. At least at first. Over time, the two grew rather close, enough to threaten a hazard in his romantic life with Lune... But the lovely little spearwoman offered to share Anton with Emmette if it came to that. At current, no such thing has, but Emmette still works at the P3 cafe as Anton's assistant.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Kiipa Nulstat]] : The woman who's done so much to help Anton live a fulfilling life, and the one who he always feels the burning need to make proud. She was his sister, not by blood but by choice--And he loved her fiercely, knowing full well that if ever there came a time where a choice had to be made, her life or his, he'd not hesitate to keep her safe until his end.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Aurelia Aerowind]] : The little lady who kept him sane after he lost his job with the Radical Dreamers, they met in a bar, working together to take down a particularly murderous swordswoman... And were pushed together as a couple recently by one of Aurelia's friends, [[Mayuri Kotonoha]]. They dated for a while, but mutually decided that they weren't fit for each other, though Anton very much adores her still, the angry little cake-monster that she is.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Suna Rokuyari]] : All he'd said was that she shouldn't take drugs from strangers, no matter what they said the drugs could do. The side-effects could be terrifying... And sure enough, they were. The little lizard girl came to visit Anton at the Dreamer estate regularly afterward, eventually signing on as his assistant in chefliness... And from there, his lover. The relationship did not last long, unfortunately, as she felt that he deserved better than she could offer--But they are still great friends, nonetheless.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Attika Nianu]] : Attika was Anton's star student--Whether that's because she was the only one that stuck around, or because she actually does a good job controlling herself, who knows. She has since traveled to Ishgard and back, occasionally studying with Anton on further combat techniques.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Inelaa Locte]] : At first, she was just the target of his retrieval mission into the Shroud. As he started adding things up, though, it became more and more clear.. Inelaa was Kiipa's daughter. Being that Kiipa had adopted Anton as her brother, that made Inelaa his niece.. And he hasn't taken a single moment extra to start showering her in gifts, ranging from giant stuffed animals to clothing and a book on combat arts--Specifically, around archery. The teenager has done a ton for his self-esteem, and has on her own proven that she's already enough of a woman to handle a crowd of horny people at a poetry slam! She's even surprised him with her skill at entertaining, performing a monster-class spooky song to a large crowd of onlookers with ease... And apparently, now has children!

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Sumari Polaali]] : She was, and still is, his boss. For a while, they had a romantic thing going on, until she couldn't take it anymore and.. Basically bailed out of it. He wanted to keep things going, but she couldn't believe that Anton would ever love anyone aside from Kiipa, and so couldn't handle the relationship. He gave her time, and tried again months later, but though she was momentarily receptive, it was not to be.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Tikka Swift]] : The mischievous little brat who'd essentially saved his life, through and through again so early on. He became a reliable source of sugar cubes for her, and joined her free company when she invited him in. As far as he's concerned, if anything ever happened to her or any of her gaggle of children, he'd go on a rampage. Initially, after that original invitation, he considered an attempt at a relationship of sorts with her, but decided against it rather quickly, understanding just how young she was in actuality, and what her life was like--He didn't want to add to the complications.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Katja Hoax]] : Once upon a time, they fucked like bunnies over a contract deal. That broke, as did their relationship afterward--One that Anton tried hard to mend after he realized his errors. He failed in that endeavour, his own mind messing him up time and time again... She has since found herself in a relationship with a dragoon from Ishgard, who he has great respect for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Gen Quickpaw]] : Gen was one of Anton's favorite people to have around. He respected the man, even with as much shit as they threw at each other--He's now Kiipa's side-man, though it's more seeming like she's just been absorbed into Gen's family all in all. Gen is, for all intents and purposes a brother-in-law of sorts, being Kiipa's lover... And over time, Anton and he have figured things out between themselves, and are.. Friends, though not exactly best of.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Tallera Weaver]] : Crazy voodoo sorceress. Anton ran across her one day, and since then, every time they meet up, somethin' crazy happens--Or they count the whores inside the Quicksand. One or the other. She seems fair convinced that she's a zombie, but he's not convinced--He does know, however, that she /really/ likes watching the stars. Of course, this became quite a bit more clear when he realized that the woman was, in fact, an Ishgardian Astrologian--A star-mancer-mage-wizard. He's got quite a bit of respect for the girl, and what she's been able to pull off, lately. On top of all that, he now works with the crazy woman as his side job, hunting down exotic beasties for parts--And in turn, he hires her for jobs regarding more magical skill.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Misha Jinhri]] : Misha, Misha, Misha. They met as a result of Tikka jumping off a balcony and Anton following her, but they hit it off easily. And, with Leif dodging out of getting a drink with the three of them, they realized that they clicked fairly well... So, they went on a date. And then another one. And decided that, regardless of how fast they were or weren't going, they'd try their hand at being a couple. It didn't work out, but the two are still friends. Or.. They were, anyway. After a long stretch of nothing but disrespect, he's not sure what to do with her anymore.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Felix Cyprus]] : One of the first people he met in the Dreamers. A stoic guardsman, now turned.. Stoic fistfighter? He wasn't sure what to make of the tall, dark, and lovely man at times, but he did try to call the man a friend.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Jeros Redd]] : Jeros. Technically? Jeros was his superior in terms of both free and grand company. Anton worked with the Maelstrom--So did Jeros, only for much longer. Same, too, with the Dreamers. Nonetheless, Jeros is helping to get the big guy back into fighting shape, after a nasty run-in with a particularly devastating voidsent. Indeed, they very much teach each other. Recently, he's been helping the man put together his past, and helping him unfold his future as a trainee armorer.

: <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Runa Sweet]] : After some time without a trainee, Anton happened upon Runa at a beach party for Emmette's company.. And, one thing lead in to another, and the company leader essentially asked him to help teach Runa how to swing a sword, and perhaps get some finesse training while he was at it. Runa, as it was, seemed to be an attentive student and followed direction with minimal question... So far.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Appearance & Personality</div>===
:Commonly seen these days wearing what looks like a black bodysuit, though closer inspection shows a parting at the midsection and wrists, just clothing of a similar material. Over that, a purple or silver jacket, complete with tie. Outside his home, he always has a mask on, a seemingly magitek piece that he makes a lot of bold claims about, though whether those claims are true or not remains to be seen.

:During company affairs, he represents himself with a professional-looking knee-length silver coat, complete with a birdlike hood and mask combination that covers his head entirely. The Might & Magitek logo stands out proudly on his chest.

:Green eyes, black hair, and a ton of scars all over his tanned skin make up the rest of his appearance. Each scar bears it's own significance, and he'll likely tell the story if asked. His hair still retains the purple highlighting that Aurelia left as a prank, though he's since renewed the coloring, remembering a happier time. These days, he prefers to hide his scars, wearing only reserved clothing in public, even down to the fully face-covering mask. Even in friendly company, it's all or nothing--No mask or identifying clothing, to the point that he's dressed in some sort of swimwear... or the mask and full outfit.

:His experiences in the past few years have left their mark, and as a result Anton is a much more carefree individual, having decided to mostly retire from the dangerous monster hunting business... To settle down and become the tavernkeep he'd wanted to be. In this instance, it's a cafe--Not a tavern, but the end result is the same: Anton is happier, free to pursue his recipe experimentation and charity-work, and ultimately build a solid relationship with his partners.

:In all, this new life has left him so much less stressed out on a daily basis, though the addition of two students in his work retinue do throw a wrench in things... Good or bad, only time will tell.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Biography</div>===

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Early Childhood</div>====

:Reasonably unknown at present. Recent information suggests that his father was an Ala Mhigan refugee, his mother an Ul'dahn prostitute. Father disappeared, unknown causes--Assumed dead? Mother resorted to an endless routine of work to make ends meet.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Late Childhood/Teenager</div>====

:Only partially known at present. His mother became sick, almost definitely due to work habits. With his father out of the picture, Anton turned to thievery to help make money, to try and pay for medicine, but although he was able to pay off the fee for the medicine, he was required to work for the man who provided it in order to acquire it at the reduced price. Unfortunately, though, the medicine was a placebo, a fake, nothing but sugar pills--His mother died anyway. Anton tried to get revenge upon the dealer for giving him the shoddy medicine, but even more tragedy was thrown at him: His childhood girlfriend was forced to pay the price for his transgressions, first captured, then tortured to prove a point, and ultimately killed. Her death was kept a secret from Anton to try and keep him working for the dealer--Ever curious, though, Anton figured out what had happened fairly quickly, two of the dealer's thugs commenting on how one had 'gone too far'... And he left. He fled the city under the first caravan out, only revealing himself on arrival to Horizon, which gave the dealer, later, enough information to find that he had taken a boat out.

:Anton's time in La Noscea was an interesting one, starting with the cleaning crew at the Bismarck, where he was eventually promoted to acquisitions, one of the guys handling ingredient procurement, trips out to the outlying settlements to trade. During his time he learned plenty of recipes and a good amount of methodology during those years, which lead to experimentation in his private time--He even accepted lower pay in order to gain time specifically to learn more. To accommodate the lessened pay (so that he could make rent and meals) he turned back to what he had learned earlier in life: Thievery. The problem there, though, lay in the fact that there existed a ruleset for thievery in Limsa Lominsa, and Anton quickly learned what that way of life meant. His time with the rogue's guild cut into his ability to keep a steady job at the Bismarck, <i>and</i> learn about the culinary world, so he chose to abandon the former amicably, and take on more lessons in between jobs of roguery.

:He only had so long, though...

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Wilds</div>====

:The dealer had decided to expand his business out to La Noscea, and unfortunately for Anton, that meant he only had a limited amount of time before he was found out--Certainly he'd be remembered! Under cover of night, he left. Untrained as he was, though, he didn't know how to survive outside the city, and headed first for Costa Del Sol to try and gain meaningful employment as an apprentice chef out there. He was brought on as a trial, a temporary hire to see how he would do--And was found to not make the cut. From there, he ran into the jungle, the wilds, the nigh untamed greenery.

:It wasn't long before he started getting chased by the wildlife. At first it was easy, small birds and the like, but that didn't last: a coeurl had begun stalking him, and though it may have been a younger beast, and unsure of itself, it was still more than a match for the equally young knife-wielding ex-chef-learner. After two close encounters, Anton had managed to get himself up into a tree... And that was that. The coeurl was waiting, essentially starving him out, and the poor kid was sure he was dead, a goner, without any sort of reprieve.. But no, relief came in the form of a large roegadyn man, who not only dispatched the young beast with style, but helped Anton get down without breaking anything, and fed him nonetheless.

:The roegadyn called himself Inquisitive Mentor, and after listening to Anton's story, he took the young man home with him, a tribe--clan? Group? Tiny village? of other roegadyn up further into the jungle, into the mountains. There, for what felt like years, he stayed with them, learning how to survive in the wilds, how to distinguish between medicinal and poisonous plants, and most importantly, how to fight. He'd seen the gladiators fight, even tried to learn how to use a shield, not that it stuck with him. He could use those knives of his, but that wasn't exactly a great weapon against larger beasties that lived in the wilds of La Noscea. Anton was paired up with Mentor's son, Knotted Iron, as he was the best fit as a training partner for the hyur, being a smaller stature, younger roegadyn. They trained extensively on archery and axework, and the midlander even made an effort to show off how to use a shield... But it wasn't exactly a professional quality demonstration.

:Knotted Iron and Anton became fast friends, and regularly went on forays out into the wilds together, both to explore, to learn about the surrounding area, and to hunt. It was on one of these trips that they returned to the village... Only to find that it had been ransacked. No survivors that they could find, and anything that hadn't been taken was trashed, burnt and destroyed beyond any chance of recovery. Anton's time with the rogues suggested it was a band of pirates, and the village was near a river, with tracks leading to and from... But not who the pirates were.

:The only survivor they definitively knew about was Iron's father, Mentor, who had gone on one of his regular trips far out across the world, and was not due to return for over a month yet. They didn't know where he'd gone, but prior to leaving the big man had expressed interest in two areas: Kugane, in the Far East... And the Cataclysm damage site known as the Burning Wall. The two decided to split up, try and find Mentor to inform him of what had happened with Iron heading to the Far East, and Anton to Thanalan, as he already knew the area there. Anton... Did not mention his past to Iron, and had in fact figured he'd be mostly forgotten on his return there, given the time that had passed them by.
====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">The Return to Thanalan</div>====

:Anton's first stop on his arrival back in Vesper Bay was to pick up supplies and a chocobo, putting his thievery skills to great use amongst the denizens of the small town to quickly and quietly secure himself passage up to the Burning Wall... But there was no mention, not even a whisper, of Mentor having come through there. Disappointed, Anton headed back to Ul'dah to see about finding himself any more information. Instead, he found himself more misfortune: The dealer did indeed remember him. He was taken, tortured and... Once more, turned into a worker for the deranged lalafell. Anton didn't know any better, and was still afraid of the little man and his crew. He worked as a thug now, a debt collector, a thief, and on occasion.. A hitman. On more than one occasion, he ran into a mischevious miqo'te thief, but never got a name out of her, but over time her pranks helped break his conditioning to the lalafell, and when the dealer found that he'd been trading sugar cubes for scant conversation, Anton was brought back in for further breaking.

:All Anton remembers of that time is a quantity of body parts, blood everywhere, and the definitive, unquestionable knowledge that the dealer and his two main officers were dead.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Recent Past</div>====

:Turns out, that the thief had a name: [[Tikka Swift]]. After his final incident with the dealer, she pulled yet another prank on him, an attempt to steal his sword. She stuck around for an actual conversation this time, and in the end, invited Anton to join her free company, the Radical Dreamers. A name that assuredly makes not a lick of sense to him, but he didn't particularly care--He gained friends there. He gained family there. His experience with the dealer killed what memory he had of his prior life, and he fully embraced his new one. He worked as a melee instructor and chef for the most part, occasionally playing nursemaid to those with only superficial wounds when the true medical heroes, such as his adoptive sister, [[Kiipa Nulstat]], were busy. He regularly clashed with [[Gen Quickpaw]], the leader of the company.. Generally over matters of simple nature, yet unable to come to a simple conclusion. One minor facet that he enjoyed, though not an official position, is his job of wrangling the new folks in for a drink and an introduction. Between cooking and tending bar, treating wounds, and teaching, he was a regular in most walks of the estate life.

:He managed to gather himself up a girlfriend. This, unfortunately, didn't last nearly as long as anyone was hoping--Even bystanders had high hopes for the two, [[Misha Jinhri]] and Anton, but after only a month, Misha left on a quest of soul-searching, to find herself. When she came back, things had changed... And the two, while remaining pleasant friends, were no longer a couple as a result of the findings of that journey, and the time apart. His love-life has remained relatively shattered from then on, progressing onto a helpless puppy love over his best friend, to constant flings with folks from around the company and his side job with the Obsidian Coterie. He thought he'd found something in his boss, [[Sumari Polaali]], but that had turned south when she refused to believe that she could ever come out from under the shadow that Kiipa left.

:He'd tried to mend fences with any number of previous relationships, even trying his damndest to love the smith, [[Katja Hoax]], the person who helped keep him steady after Kiipa abandoned him.. But it was all for naught. His friendships had dwindled to a shadow of what they were, as had his romantic relationships.. His sister barely gave him the time of day, though her daughter, [[Inelaa Locte]] seemed to adore him.. In all of this, he managed to find a blooming flower of a girlfriend in [[Suna Rokuyari]], all by telling her to not take drugs from strangers..

:He was distraught when his sister fell ill, and pledged himself to doing anything and everything he could to find a way to free her from the voidsent infesting her body, but in the end, he felt helpless, and relegated himself to instead making sure her family, his nieces and nephews, were well taken care of.

:Multiple incidents related to his poor manners Anton was fired from the company, now known as Might and Magitek, and was left in a momentary lurch. He turned to sleeping in dark street corners, hunting larger and larger beasts to keep his mind off of life in general. Over time, [[Aurelia Aerowind]] the tiny cake-gobbling Au Ra murderlizard he'd met during an incident where he had to protect a student from a crazed swordswoman, dragged him to her friends.. And her friends brought him into their company. As a whole, those friends shoved Aurelia and Anton together as a couple rather hastily. During this time he still regularly visited his sister, sneaking around her guardian when necessary... But it did not last much longer, the sleeping sister or the relationship with Aurelia. Happily, Kiipa woke up, though a vastly changed person... And less happily, Anton and Aurelia broke things off. Neither of them were ready for a relationship.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Present</div>====

:For a while, Anton wandered from place to place, generally serving as an odd-job chef for people, a cook on the go. There was an attempt made to run a moogle-themed bar with some friends, but it didn't pan out very well. He kept up his martial teaching lessons, and one such student came back to bite him--In a good way. [[Lune Vormold]], the avid lance learner he'd taken on so long ago, who'd kept up with her lessons non-stop, decided that she wanted to go on a date with Anton, and from there a happy relationship blossomed and still, to this day, kept growing--He'd even proposed to her. At the moment, she was still stuck under contract with her job, but... Things change. With the money he'd made he eventually managed to establish a home of his own near the beach in the Mist, originally intending it just as a place to live, for him and Lune. An executive decision was made after some time, and he turned his new home into his own place: A cafe on the top level, with hidden living quarters underneath for himself. The cafe was originally established as 'Born to Hold Eatery'... But before it's doors even opened for the first time, while he was offering lessons out of his home still, an old acquaintance showed up at his door.

:[[Emmette Stringers]], the person who'd hired him to work for the Obsidian Coterie, once upon a time.. And then, subsequently, fired him without any sort of proper cause, only to offer his assistant at the time his job.. And then some. That's who was now just inside his home, asking about cooking lessons. They had a long talk, but eventually came to an agreement: Yes, he would teach her, but he was <i>not</i> going to go easy on her. He didn't think she'd take the lessons seriously, and figured he'd get rid of her that way.

:He was wrong. She not only took to those lessons seriously, she signed on to be his assistant at the newly branded Purple Pom Parlour cafe. Anton's luck was moving on up in the world. To compound things, the prior executive's demeanor had changed dramatically. She was a bountiful source of happiness, and flirted heavily with Anton regularly, to the point that issues arose between her and Lune... Only to be settled by the latter deciding that, if things were going to be like that, she would share.. But only with Emmette.

:Of course, as yet, nothing has come of that but ridiculous teasing and flirting, as Emmette was now engaged to one [[Ramius Raske]].

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> [[Lune Vormold]] : One of the most dutiful of his students, she still trains with Anton regularly--But he does not consider her a trainee anymore, instead a friend... And then some, given that he's since proposed to her at least once, and has stolen her away on many dates. Stolen indeed, as she was still under contract with the boss that had originally sent her off to Anton for training, the same boss who was oh-so-very strict about her whereabouts... Not that Anton cared, as he regularly kidnapped her off the manor grounds, an agreement in place with the head of the guard core hired to that building. Occasionally, Lune even works at the P3 cafe to help him out.

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> [[Emmette Stringers]] : Once upon a time, he worked for her as a temporary chef to get her culinary house in order. She fired him after a month, citing his inability to accomplish anything or even show up as her reasoning, when in reality he had worked with her company just about every day to get things in order, even going so far as to plan out and teach an entire new menu line that more fit the skills of her chef. After some time, the tables turned, and she came to Anton seeking, ironically, culinary instruction. She'd lost her company and her demeanor had changed to a much more meek individual.. At least at first. Over time, the two grew rather close, enough to threaten a hazard in his romantic life with Lune... But the lovely little spearwoman offered to share Anton with Emmette if it came to that. At current, no such thing has, but Emmette still works at the P3 cafe as Anton's assistant.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Kiipa Nulstat]] : The woman who's done so much to help Anton live a fulfilling life, and the one who he always feels the burning need to make proud. She was his sister, not by blood but by choice--And he loved her fiercely, knowing full well that if ever there came a time where a choice had to be made, her life or his, he'd not hesitate to keep her safe until his end.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Aurelia Aerowind]] : The little lady who kept him sane after he lost his job with the Radical Dreamers, they met in a bar, working together to take down a particularly murderous swordswoman... And were pushed together as a couple recently by one of Aurelia's friends, [[Mayuri Kotonoha]]. They dated for a while, but mutually decided that they weren't fit for each other, though Anton very much adores her still, the angry little cake-monster that she is.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Suna Rokuyari]] : All he'd said was that she shouldn't take drugs from strangers, no matter what they said the drugs could do. The side-effects could be terrifying... And sure enough, they were. The little lizard girl came to visit Anton at the Dreamer estate regularly afterward, eventually signing on as his assistant in chefliness... And from there, his lover. The relationship did not last long, unfortunately, as she felt that he deserved better than she could offer--But they are still great friends, nonetheless.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Attika Nianu]] : Attika was Anton's star student--Whether that's because she was the only one that stuck around, or because she actually does a good job controlling herself, who knows. She has since traveled to Ishgard and back, occasionally studying with Anton on further combat techniques.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Inelaa Locte]] : At first, she was just the target of his retrieval mission into the Shroud. As he started adding things up, though, it became more and more clear.. Inelaa was Kiipa's daughter. Being that Kiipa had adopted Anton as her brother, that made Inelaa his niece.. And he hasn't taken a single moment extra to start showering her in gifts, ranging from giant stuffed animals to clothing and a book on combat arts--Specifically, around archery. The teenager has done a ton for his self-esteem, and has on her own proven that she's already enough of a woman to handle a crowd of horny people at a poetry slam! She's even surprised him with her skill at entertaining, performing a monster-class spooky song to a large crowd of onlookers with ease... And apparently, now has children!

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Sumari Polaali]] : She was, and still is, his boss. For a while, they had a romantic thing going on, until she couldn't take it anymore and.. Basically bailed out of it. He wanted to keep things going, but she couldn't believe that Anton would ever love anyone aside from Kiipa, and so couldn't handle the relationship. He gave her time, and tried again months later, but though she was momentarily receptive, it was not to be.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Tikka Swift]] : The mischievous little brat who'd essentially saved his life, through and through again so early on. He became a reliable source of sugar cubes for her, and joined her free company when she invited him in. As far as he's concerned, if anything ever happened to her or any of her gaggle of children, he'd go on a rampage. Initially, after that original invitation, he considered an attempt at a relationship of sorts with her, but decided against it rather quickly, understanding just how young she was in actuality, and what her life was like--He didn't want to add to the complications.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Katja Hoax]] : Once upon a time, they fucked like bunnies over a contract deal. That broke, as did their relationship afterward--One that Anton tried hard to mend after he realized his errors. He failed in that endeavour, his own mind messing him up time and time again... She has since found herself in a relationship with a dragoon from Ishgard, who he has great respect for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Gen Quickpaw]] : Gen was one of Anton's favorite people to have around. He respected the man, even with as much shit as they threw at each other--He's now Kiipa's side-man, though it's more seeming like she's just been absorbed into Gen's family all in all. Gen is, for all intents and purposes a brother-in-law of sorts, being Kiipa's lover... And over time, Anton and he have figured things out between themselves, and are.. Friends, though not exactly best of.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Tallera Weaver]] : Crazy voodoo sorceress. Anton ran across her one day, and since then, every time they meet up, somethin' crazy happens--Or they count the whores inside the Quicksand. One or the other. She seems fair convinced that she's a zombie, but he's not convinced--He does know, however, that she /really/ likes watching the stars. Of course, this became quite a bit more clear when he realized that the woman was, in fact, an Ishgardian Astrologian--A star-mancer-mage-wizard. He's got quite a bit of respect for the girl, and what she's been able to pull off, lately. On top of all that, he now works with the crazy woman as his side job, hunting down exotic beasties for parts--And in turn, he hires her for jobs regarding more magical skill.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Misha Jinhri]] : Misha, Misha, Misha. They met as a result of Tikka jumping off a balcony and Anton following her, but they hit it off easily. And, with Leif dodging out of getting a drink with the three of them, they realized that they clicked fairly well... So, they went on a date. And then another one. And decided that, regardless of how fast they were or weren't going, they'd try their hand at being a couple. It didn't work out, but the two are still friends. Or.. They were, anyway. After a long stretch of nothing but disrespect, he's not sure what to do with her anymore.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Felix Cyprus]] : One of the first people he met in the Dreamers. A stoic guardsman, now turned.. Stoic fistfighter? He wasn't sure what to make of the tall, dark, and lovely man at times, but he did try to call the man a friend.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Jeros Redd]] : Jeros. Technically? Jeros was his superior in terms of both free and grand company. Anton worked with the Maelstrom--So did Jeros, only for much longer. Same, too, with the Dreamers. Nonetheless, Jeros is helping to get the big guy back into fighting shape, after a nasty run-in with a particularly devastating voidsent. Indeed, they very much teach each other. Recently, he's been helping the man put together his past, and helping him unfold his future as a trainee armorer.

: <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Runa Sweet]] : After some time without a trainee, Anton happened upon Runa at a beach party for Emmette's company.. And, one thing lead in to another, and the company leader essentially asked him to help teach Runa how to swing a sword, and perhaps get some finesse training while he was at it. Runa, as it was, seemed to be an attentive student and followed direction with minimal question... So far.

(Needs to be updated rather fiercely. Will do at some point in the near future.)
Long since gone are the days where Anton lived off the land, the jungles. Gone are the days where Anton worked happily with family and friends of the Radical Dreamers free company, renamed Might and Magitek--He forges a new path, by axe and by pan, grasping the hand of his partner, with her free company of Jutat De.

Only time will tell if things will go as happily as he wants them to.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Appearance & Personality</div>===
: More often than not, he's sporting a simple pair of black slacks or slops, and a blue or red shirt--When suited up in armor, he's got an Allagan-replica coat, complete with a face-concealing mask and arm/legguards... The outfit seems to protect his core, but leaving limbs plenty mobile for quick movements and long strides. Even in casual clothing, he always seem to have a weapon of some sort on him, be it one of his knives, his pan, or the big Parashu-model axe he keeps in top form. He always has several pouches and a flask attached to his belt.

:Green eyes, black hair, and a ton of scars all over his tanned skin make up the rest of his appearance. Each scar bears it's own significance, and he'll likely tell the story if asked. His hair changes color based on the season, or on a whim--He's been having way too much fun with dyes... Depending on the day, he either freely flaunts his body, his scars, or he hides them completely, to the point that he even wears a mask over his face so even those scars are unknown.

:Personality-wise, Anton has been much happier of late. Developments of two months ago left him homeless and nigh on jobless, but friends picked him back up and set him straight. He's back to cooking on a daily basis, and humming happily as he does so, feeling that his talents aren't being taken for granted this time around, and that he is legitimately valued, not a replaceable part of a whole.

In all, this new life has left him so much less stressed out on a daily basis, and free to pursue his dream of becoming a tavern owner in his own right, rather than a simple chef.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Biography</div>===

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Childhood</div>====

:Most unknown at present. Recent information suggests that his father was an Ala Mhigan refugee, his mother an Ul'dahn prostitute. Father disappeared, unknown causes--Assumed dead? Mother resorted to an endless routine of work to make ends meet.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Teenage</div>====

:Most unknown at present. Mother became sick, likely due to work habits. Anton turned to thievery to help make money, try to pay off medicine. Was able to pay off said medicine, but incurred massive debt in doing so. Medicine was placebo--Mother died anyway. Upon attempting retaliation for fake medicine, his childhood girlfriend was forced to pay the price for his transgressions: She died, as a lesson to him.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Wilds</div>====

:For lack of a better term, Anton was an incredibly unlucky person. His ability at gambling was terrible, and instead of getting out of debt, he accrued so much more debt that it had come to a head--His life, or his money. Being that he had no money, and he didn't particularly want his life to be over... He left. For fear of getting his friends hurt, he said nothing--They couldn't be used as bargaining chips if they didn't know. Just like that, he was gone. His first destination was to Limsa Lominsa, posing as a gladiator mercenary. He had minimal skill with a sword and shield, but figured he could get away with it readily enough, especially if he wore a helmet all the time to hide his identity. After a time, he learned he had quite a propensity for swinging about an axe, and as a pastime, he studied the cooks in the Bismarck. After a while, he was easily able to mimic them, and even understand why they did what they did. After a good while, though, his past caught up with him again--Even with his hair grown out, face grown older, and demeanor changed. He'd learned a different way of life, changed himself around amazingly, but still was not to be at rest.

:To Costa, he ran. They'd been looking for mercs there, right? He could get a job there, easy as that. But no. Not hiring. With that, he fled further inland, right into the wilds. For a while, he stumbled on his own--Barely able to make due. He refused to speak with any traveler, for fear of being found, but eventually it had come to the point that he was on death's doorstep. A roegadyn by the name of 'Inquisitive Mentor' found him, and helped him back to health, teaching him how to survive properly--At this point, he was far enough into the wilds, that it was amazing there was someone else around.

:Mentor was a man who liked to learn. In return for any knowledge he'd gleaned from a traveler, he gave something back--Usually another form of knowledge. Anton had very little to teach Mentor, but even his meager sword-and-board skills were something the big man could learn from. As thanks, the roe took his time teaching Anton how to live in the wilds--What was edible, what wasn't. Where he could find help without going back to civilization, and how to handle the basic predators--A point that he was surprised about, though, was that Anton had yet to run into any of the wildlife, though probably due to him being like unto death at the time.

:They parted ways, and Anton made his way to one of these sources of non-civilization help. The man he met was all too happy for a visitor, and though he never gave a name, taught Anton what is now his most valuable skill: How to <b>really</b> use an axe.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Recent Past</div>====

:Anton became a proud member of the Radical Dreamers, after being found by the single friend who remembered him: [[Tikka Swift]]. A name that assuredly makes not a lick of sense to him, but he didn't particularly care--He had friends there. He had family there. He worked as a melee instructor and chef for the most part, occasionally playing nursemaid to those with only superficial wounds when the true medical heroes, such as his sister, [[Kiipa Nulstat]], were busy. He regularly clashed with [[Gen Quickpaw]], the leader of the company.. Generally over matters of simple nature, yet unable to come to a simple conclusion. One minor facet that he enjoyed, though not an official position, is his job of wrangling the new folks in for a drink and an introduction. Between cooking and tending bar, treating wounds, and teaching, he was a regular in most walks of the estate life.

:Shortly after returning from the wilds, he managed to gather himself up a girlfriend. This, unfortunately, didn't last nearly as long as anyone was hoping--Even bystanders had high hopes for the two, [[Misha Jinhri]] and Anton, but after only a month, Misha left on a quest of soul-searching, to find herself. When she came back, things had changed... And the two, while remaining pleasant friends, were no longer a couple as a result of the findings of that journey, and the time apart. His love-life has remained relatively shattered from then on, progressing onto a helpless puppy love over his best friend, to constant flings with folks from around the company and his side job with the Obsidian Coterie. He thought he'd found something in his boss, [[Sumari Polaali]], but that had turned south when she refused to believe that she could ever come out from under the shadow that Kiipa left.

:He'd tried to mend fences with any number of previous relationships, even trying his damndest to love the smith, [[Katja Hoax]], the person who helped keep him steady after Kiipa abandoned him.. But it was all for naught. His friendships had dwindled to a shadow of what they were, as had his romantic relationships.. His sister barely gave him the time of day, though her daughter, [[Inelaa Locte]] seemed to adore him.. In all of this, he managed to find a blooming flower of a girlfriend in [[Suna Rokuyari]], all by telling her to not take drugs from strangers..

:He was distraught when his sister fell ill, and pledged himself to doing anything and everything he could to find a way to free her from the voidsent infesting her body, but in the end, he felt helpless, and relegated himself to instead making sure her family, his nieces and nephews, were well taken care of.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Present</div>====

:Having been fired from Radical Dreamers, now known as Might and Magitek, Anton was left in a momentary lurch. He turned to sleeping in dark corners, and hunting in his old stomping grounds in the jungles of La Noscea to keep his mind off things. The only thing keeping him from fully regressing into the wildling he used to be was his attachment to the tiny Au Ra girl, [[Aurelia Aerowind]]--His now girlfriend, and partner in crime in all things cake-related. She convinced him to join up with her company, Jutat De, and that is where he remains to date--Though he still has yet to put down roots with them, instead preferring to take up residence in the Mist apartments, across the ward from his sister's home, which he regularly visits to deliver food to her family, and talk to her while she sleeps her endless sleep.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Kiipa Nulstat]] : The woman who's done so much to help Anton live a fulfilling life, and the one who he always feels the burning need to make proud. She was his sister, not by blood but by choice--And he loved her fiercely, knowing full well that if ever there came a time where a choice had to be made, her life or his, he'd not hesitate to keep her safe until his end.

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> [[Aurelia Aerowind]] : The little lady who kept him sane after he lost his job with the Radical Dreamers, they've since decided that they are in a relationship. It's apparent that it's a new experience for her, and he's committed to taking things slowly to not spook her--And potentially get himself worked over by her company, or even the lady herself, who is a competent combatant. They met in a bar, working together to take down a particularly murderous swordswoman... And were pushed together as a couple recently by one of Aurelia's friends, [[Mayuri Kotonoha]].

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Suna Rokuyari]] : All he'd said was that she shouldn't take drugs from strangers, no matter what they said the drugs could do. The side-effects could be terrifying... And sure enough, they were. The little lizard girl came to visit Anton at the Dreamer estate regularly afterward, eventually signing on as his assistant in chefliness... And from there, his lover. The relationship did not last long, unfortunately, as she felt that he deserved better than she could offer--But they are still great friends, nonetheless.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Attika Nianu]] : Attika was Anton's star student--Whether that's because she was the only one that stuck around, or because she actually does a good job controlling herself, who knows. She has since traveled to Ishgard and back, occasionally studying with Anton on further combat techniques.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Inelaa Locte]] : At first, she was just the target of his retrieval mission into the Shroud. As he started adding things up, though, it became more and more clear.. Inelaa was Kiipa's daughter. Being that Kiipa had adopted Anton as her brother, that made Inelaa his niece.. And he hasn't taken a single moment extra to start showering her in gifts, ranging from giant stuffed animals to clothing and a book on combat arts--Specifically, around archery. The teenager has done a ton for his self-esteem, and has on her own proven that she's already enough of a woman to handle a crowd of horny people at a poetry slam! She's even recently surprised him with her skill at entertaining, performing a monster-class spooky song to a large crowd of onlookers with ease.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Sumari Polaali]] : She was, and still is, his boss. For a while, they had a romantic thing going on, until she couldn't take it anymore and.. Basically bailed out of it. He wanted to keep things going, but she couldn't believe that Anton would ever love anyone aside from Kiipa, and so couldn't handle the relationship. He gave her time, and tried again months later, but though she was momentarily receptive, it was not to be.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Tikka Swift]] : Tikka. His first friend that he'd found upon leaving the wilds. He knew her from beforehand, and felt incredibly bad for leaving her to her own devices like he did. She'd gone through so much while he was gone, he was determined to try and make it up to her. He'd thought to try and start a relationship with her, but after learning all that he has... He's just not sure if he can. Especially since she seems so young. Probably for the best. He's since realized that she'd not been as clear with her age, and was in fact quite older--And now has no idea at all what to think, aside from the fact that she's mostly machine and now has many babies.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Katja Hoax]] : Once upon a time, they fucked like bunnies over a contract deal. That broke, as did their relationship afterward--One that Anton tried hard to mend after he realized his errors. He failed in that endeavour, his own mind messing him up time and time again... She has since found herself in a relationship with a dragoon from Ishgard, who he has great respect for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Gen Quickpaw]] : Gen was one of Anton's favorite people to have around. He respected the man, even with as much shit as they threw at each other--He's now Kiipa's side-man, though it's more seeming like she's just been absorbed into Gen's family all in all. Gen is, for all intents and purposes a brother-in-law of sorts, being Kiipa's lover... But lately he's taken to avoiding the man, not wanting to cause any more problems with the one who fired him.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Tallera Weaver]] : Crazy voodoo sorceress. Anton ran across her one day, and since then, every time they meet up, somethin' crazy happens--Or they count the whores inside the Quicksand. One or the other. She seems fair convinced that she's a zombie, but he's not convinced--He does know, however, that she /really/ likes watching the stars. Of course, this became quite a bit more clear when he realized that the woman was, in fact, an Ishgardian Astrologian--A star-mancer-mage-wizard. He's got quite a bit of respect for the girl, and what she's been able to pull off, lately. On top of all that, he now works with the crazy woman as his side job, hunting down exotic beasties for parts--And in turn, he hires her for jobs regarding more magical skill.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Misha Jinhri]] : Misha, Misha, Misha. They met as a result of Tikka jumping off a balcony and Anton following her, but they hit it off easily. And, with Leif dodging out of getting a drink with the three of them, they realized that they clicked fairly well... So, they went on a date. And then another one. And decided that, regardless of how fast they were or weren't going, they'd try their hand at being a couple. It didn't work out, but the two are still friends. Or.. They were, anyway. After a long stretch of nothing but disrespect, he's not sure what to do with her anymore.

: <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> [[Emmette Stringers]] : At one point, he worked for her. When she cut him loose with a lie loaded with bullshit, his respect for her went out the window--Along with his liking of her company, the Obsidian Coterie.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Felix Cyprus]] : One of the first people he met in the Dreamers. A stoic guardsman, now turned.. Stoic fistfighter? He wasn't sure what to make of the tall, dark, and lovely man at times, but he did try to call the man a friend.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Jeros Redd]] : Jeros. Technically? Jeros was his superior in terms of both free and grand company. Anton worked with the Maelstrom--So did Jeros, only for much longer. Same, too, with the Dreamers. Nonetheless, Jeros is helping to get the big guy back into fighting shape, after a nasty run-in with a particularly devastating voidsent. Indeed, they very much teach each other. Recently, he's been helping the man put together his past, and helping him unfold his future as a trainee armorer.

: <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Lune Vormold]] : Proper trainee! She came to him asking to be trained in weapons and bodyguard-work at the behest of her master. Anton simply had to oblige, as she seemed so determined--And still does. She's second to Attika in favor, as far as his students have been.

Long since gone are the days where Anton lived off the land, the jungles. Gone are the days where Anton worked happily with family and friends of the Radical Dreamers free company, renamed Might and Magitek--He forges a new path, by axe and by pan, grasping the hand of his partner, with her free company of Jutat De.

Only time will tell if things will go as happily as he wants them to.

: More often than not, he's sporting a simple pair of black slacks or slops, and a blue or red shirt--When suited up in armor, he's got an Allagan-replica coat, complete with a face-concealing mask and arm/legguards... The outfit seems to protect his core, but leaving limbs plenty mobile for quick movements and long strides. Even in casual clothing, he always seem to have a weapon of some sort on him, be it one of his knives, his pan, or the big Parashu-model axe he keeps in top form. He always has several pouches and a flask attached to his belt.

:Green eyes, black hair, and a ton of scars all over his tanned skin make up the rest of his appearance. Each scar bears it's own significance, and he'll likely tell the story if asked. His hair changes color based on the season, or on a whim--He's been having way too much fun with dyes... Depending on the day, he either freely flaunts his body, his scars, or he hides them completely, to the point that he even wears a mask over his face so even those scars are unknown.

:Personality-wise, Anton has been much happier of late. Developments of two months ago left him homeless and nigh on jobless, but friends picked him back up and set him straight. He's back to cooking on a daily basis, and humming happily as he does so, feeling that his talents aren't being taken for granted this time around, and that he is legitimately valued, not a replaceable part of a whole.

In all, this new life has left him so much less stressed out on a daily basis, and free to pursue his dream of becoming a tavern owner in his own right, rather than a simple chef.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Biography</div>===

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Childhood</div>====

:Most unknown at present. Recent information suggests that his father was an Ala Mhigan refugee, his mother an Ul'dahn prostitute. Father disappeared, unknown causes--Assumed dead? Mother resorted to an endless routine of work to make ends meet.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Teenage</div>====

:Most unknown at present. Mother became sick, likely due to work habits. Anton turned to thievery to help make money, try to pay off medicine. Was able to pay off said medicine, but incurred massive debt in doing so. Medicine was placebo--Mother died anyway. Upon attempting retaliation for fake medicine, his childhood girlfriend was forced to pay the price for his transgressions: She died, as a lesson to him.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Wilds</div>====

:For lack of a better term, Anton was an incredibly unlucky person. His ability at gambling was terrible, and instead of getting out of debt, he accrued so much more debt that it had come to a head--His life, or his money. Being that he had no money, and he didn't particularly want his life to be over... He left. For fear of getting his friends hurt, he said nothing--They couldn't be used as bargaining chips if they didn't know. Just like that, he was gone. His first destination was to Limsa Lominsa, posing as a gladiator mercenary. He had minimal skill with a sword and shield, but figured he could get away with it readily enough, especially if he wore a helmet all the time to hide his identity. After a time, he learned he had quite a propensity for swinging about an axe, and as a pastime, he studied the cooks in the Bismarck. After a while, he was easily able to mimic them, and even understand why they did what they did. After a good while, though, his past caught up with him again--Even with his hair grown out, face grown older, and demeanor changed. He'd learned a different way of life, changed himself around amazingly, but still was not to be at rest.

:To Costa, he ran. They'd been looking for mercs there, right? He could get a job there, easy as that. But no. Not hiring. With that, he fled further inland, right into the wilds. For a while, he stumbled on his own--Barely able to make due. He refused to speak with any traveler, for fear of being found, but eventually it had come to the point that he was on death's doorstep. A roegadyn by the name of 'Inquisitive Mentor' found him, and helped him back to health, teaching him how to survive properly--At this point, he was far enough into the wilds, that it was amazing there was someone else around.

:Mentor was a man who liked to learn. In return for any knowledge he'd gleaned from a traveler, he gave something back--Usually another form of knowledge. Anton had very little to teach Mentor, but even his meager sword-and-board skills were something the big man could learn from. As thanks, the roe took his time teaching Anton how to live in the wilds--What was edible, what wasn't. Where he could find help without going back to civilization, and how to handle the basic predators--A point that he was surprised about, though, was that Anton had yet to run into any of the wildlife, though probably due to him being like unto death at the time.

:They parted ways, and Anton made his way to one of these sources of non-civilization help. The man he met was all too happy for a visitor, and though he never gave a name, taught Anton what is now his most valuable skill: How to <b>really</b> use an axe.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Recent Past</div>====

:Anton became a proud member of the Radical Dreamers, after being found by the single friend who remembered him: [[Tikka Swift]]. A name that assuredly makes not a lick of sense to him, but he didn't particularly care--He had friends there. He had family there. He worked as a melee instructor and chef for the most part, occasionally playing nursemaid to those with only superficial wounds when the true medical heroes, such as his sister, [[Kiipa Nulstat]], were busy. He regularly clashed with [[Gen Quickpaw]], the leader of the company.. Generally over matters of simple nature, yet unable to come to a simple conclusion. One minor facet that he enjoyed, though not an official position, is his job of wrangling the new folks in for a drink and an introduction. Between cooking and tending bar, treating wounds, and teaching, he was a regular in most walks of the estate life.

:Shortly after returning from the wilds, he managed to gather himself up a girlfriend. This, unfortunately, didn't last nearly as long as anyone was hoping--Even bystanders had high hopes for the two, [[Misha Jinhri]] and Anton, but after only a month, Misha left on a quest of soul-searching, to find herself. When she came back, things had changed... And the two, while remaining pleasant friends, were no longer a couple as a result of the findings of that journey, and the time apart. His love-life has remained relatively shattered from then on, progressing onto a helpless puppy love over his best friend, to constant flings with folks from around the company and his side job with the Obsidian Coterie. He thought he'd found something in his boss, [[Sumari Polaali]], but that had turned south when she refused to believe that she could ever come out from under the shadow that Kiipa left.

:He'd tried to mend fences with any number of previous relationships, even trying his damndest to love the smith, [[Katja Hoax]], the person who helped keep him steady after Kiipa abandoned him.. But it was all for naught. His friendships had dwindled to a shadow of what they were, as had his romantic relationships.. His sister barely gave him the time of day, though her daughter, [[Inelaa Locte]] seemed to adore him.. In all of this, he managed to find a blooming flower of a girlfriend in [[Suna Rokuyari]], all by telling her to not take drugs from strangers..

:He was distraught when his sister fell ill, and pledged himself to doing anything and everything he could to find a way to free her from the voidsent infesting her body, but in the end, he felt helpless, and relegated himself to instead making sure her family, his nieces and nephews, were well taken care of.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Present</div>====

:Having been fired from Radical Dreamers, now known as Might and Magitek, Anton was left in a momentary lurch. He turned to sleeping in dark corners, and hunting in his old stomping grounds in the jungles of La Noscea to keep his mind off things. The only thing keeping him from fully regressing into the wildling he used to be was his attachment to the tiny Au Ra girl, [[Aurelia Aerowind]]--His now girlfriend, and partner in crime in all things cake-related. She convinced him to join up with her company, Jutat De, and that is where he remains to date--Though he still has yet to put down roots with them, instead preferring to take up residence in the Mist apartments, across the ward from his sister's home, which he regularly visits to deliver food to her family, and talk to her while she sleeps her endless sleep.

<div style="padding:10px 35px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;"><center>''Relations''</center></div></span></h3>
: <center><font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> Romantic Interest <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> Sexual Interest <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> Platonic Love <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> Good Standing <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">●</font> Neutral Standing <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> Trainee <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> Poor Standing</center>

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Kiipa Nulstat]] : The woman who's done so much to help Anton live a fulfilling life, and the one who he always feels the burning need to make proud. She was his sister, not by blood but by choice--And he loved her fiercely, knowing full well that if ever there came a time where a choice had to be made, her life or his, he'd not hesitate to keep her safe until his end.

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> [[Aurelia Aerowind]] : The little lady who kept him sane after he lost his job with the Radical Dreamers, they've since decided that they are in a relationship. It's apparent that it's a new experience for her, and he's committed to taking things slowly to not spook her--And potentially get himself worked over by her company, or even the lady herself, who is a competent combatant. They met in a bar, working together to take down a particularly murderous swordswoman... And were pushed together as a couple recently by one of Aurelia's friends, [[Mayuri Kotonoha]].

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Suna Rokuyari]] : All he'd said was that she shouldn't take drugs from strangers, no matter what they said the drugs could do. The side-effects could be terrifying... And sure enough, they were. The little lizard girl came to visit Anton at the Dreamer estate regularly afterward, eventually signing on as his assistant in chefliness... And from there, his lover. The relationship did not last long, unfortunately, as she felt that he deserved better than she could offer--But they are still great friends, nonetheless.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Attika Nianu]] : Attika was Anton's star student--Whether that's because she was the only one that stuck around, or because she actually does a good job controlling herself, who knows. She has since traveled to Ishgard and back, occasionally studying with Anton on further combat techniques.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Inelaa Locte]] : At first, she was just the target of his retrieval mission into the Shroud. As he started adding things up, though, it became more and more clear.. Inelaa was Kiipa's daughter. Being that Kiipa had adopted Anton as her brother, that made Inelaa his niece.. And he hasn't taken a single moment extra to start showering her in gifts, ranging from giant stuffed animals to clothing and a book on combat arts--Specifically, around archery. The teenager has done a ton for his self-esteem, and has on her own proven that she's already enough of a woman to handle a crowd of horny people at a poetry slam! She's even recently surprised him with her skill at entertaining, performing a monster-class spooky song to a large crowd of onlookers with ease.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Sumari Polaali]] : She was, and still is, his boss. For a while, they had a romantic thing going on, until she couldn't take it anymore and.. Basically bailed out of it. He wanted to keep things going, but she couldn't believe that Anton would ever love anyone aside from Kiipa, and so couldn't handle the relationship. He gave her time, and tried again months later, but though she was momentarily receptive, it was not to be.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Tikka Swift]] : Tikka. His first friend that he'd found upon leaving the wilds. He knew her from beforehand, and felt incredibly bad for leaving her to her own devices like he did. She'd gone through so much while he was gone, he was determined to try and make it up to her. He'd thought to try and start a relationship with her, but after learning all that he has... He's just not sure if he can. Especially since she seems so young. Probably for the best. He's since realized that she'd not been as clear with her age, and was in fact quite older--And now has no idea at all what to think, aside from the fact that she's mostly machine and now has many babies.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Katja Hoax]] : Once upon a time, they fucked like bunnies over a contract deal. That broke, as did their relationship afterward--One that Anton tried hard to mend after he realized his errors. He failed in that endeavour, his own mind messing him up time and time again... She has since found herself in a relationship with a dragoon from Ishgard, who he has great respect for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Gen Quickpaw]] : Gen was one of Anton's favorite people to have around. He respected the man, even with as much shit as they threw at each other--He's now Kiipa's side-man, though it's more seeming like she's just been absorbed into Gen's family all in all. Gen is, for all intents and purposes a brother-in-law of sorts, being Kiipa's lover... But lately he's taken to avoiding the man, not wanting to cause any more problems with the one who fired him.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Tallera Weaver]] : Crazy voodoo sorceress. Anton ran across her one day, and since then, every time they meet up, somethin' crazy happens--Or they count the whores inside the Quicksand. One or the other. She seems fair convinced that she's a zombie, but he's not convinced--He does know, however, that she /really/ likes watching the stars. Of course, this became quite a bit more clear when he realized that the woman was, in fact, an Ishgardian Astrologian--A star-mancer-mage-wizard. He's got quite a bit of respect for the girl, and what she's been able to pull off, lately. On top of all that, he now works with the crazy woman as his side job, hunting down exotic beasties for parts--And in turn, he hires her for jobs regarding more magical skill.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Misha Jinhri]] : Misha, Misha, Misha. They met as a result of Tikka jumping off a balcony and Anton following her, but they hit it off easily. And, with Leif dodging out of getting a drink with the three of them, they realized that they clicked fairly well... So, they went on a date. And then another one. And decided that, regardless of how fast they were or weren't going, they'd try their hand at being a couple. It didn't work out, but the two are still friends. Or.. They were, anyway. After a long stretch of nothing but disrespect, he's not sure what to do with her anymore.

: <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> [[Emmette Stringers]] : At one point, he worked for her. When she cut him loose with a lie loaded with bullshit, his respect for her went out the window--Along with his liking of her company, the Obsidian Coterie.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Felix Cyprus]] : One of the first people he met in the Dreamers. A stoic guardsman, now turned.. Stoic fistfighter? He wasn't sure what to make of the tall, dark, and lovely man at times, but he did try to call the man a friend.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Jeros Redd]] : Jeros. Technically? Jeros was his superior in terms of both free and grand company. Anton worked with the Maelstrom--So did Jeros, only for much longer. Same, too, with the Dreamers. Nonetheless, Jeros is helping to get the big guy back into fighting shape, after a nasty run-in with a particularly devastating voidsent. Indeed, they very much teach each other. Recently, he's been helping the man put together his past, and helping him unfold his future as a trainee armorer.

: <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Lune Vormold]] : Proper trainee! She came to him asking to be trained in weapons and bodyguard-work at the behest of her master. Anton simply had to oblige, as she seemed so determined--And still does. She's second to Attika in favor, as far as his students have been.

<h3><span class="mw-headline" id="General"><div style="font-family:Georgia;padding:10px 15px; background: #000000;font-size:16px;color:#ffffff; text-shadow: 1px 1px 3px black;letter-spacing:0.2em;"><center>GENERAL INFORMATION</center></div></span></h3>
<div align=justify><div style="padding: 7px 4px;font-size:13px; color:#999999;font-family:Georgia;">Collected and quiet, this reclusive Keeper is far more content to listen rather than speak. She carries herself with a sense of pride and grace that is as much a mark of the wilds of the Shroud where she grew up, as it is the sign of someone with enough social etiquette to know how to move around others. The birth of her child, a recent affair, has filled out the lean woman, and she carries a maternal air that has done nothing to dull the sharp tongue those who call her friend are used to. </div></div>

<h3><span class="mw-headline" id="General"><div style="font-family:Georgia;padding:10px 15px; background: #000000;font-size:16px;color:#ffffff; text-shadow: 1px 1px 3px black;letter-spacing:0.2em;"><center>APPEARANCE</center></div></span></h3>

<div style="padding: 7px 4px;font-size:13px; color:#999999;font-family:Georgia;">Kiipa's grey skin marks her quite clearly as a Keeper upon first glance, and she maintains a tie to her homeland of the Shroud in the coloring that she chooses to surround herself in. While her hair is a natural dusky green, she's not afraid to have the lengthy strands dyed a variety of other colors; white, platinum blue, and even black have been favored previously. Abandoning the sleek look of her youth, she bears more the look of a wolf – or perhaps a richly spoiled housecat – than her kin, with slightly larger ears and a very full tail that reaches to her ankles in length. </div>

<div style="padding: 7px 4px;font-size:13px; color:#999999;font-family:Georgia;">While her body is more curved since the birth of her child, she has nearly returned to her previous fit self, and dresses herself in modest clothing while in the company of those who demand a sense of propriety. When comfortable, she favors items that bare her shoulders and arms, though she is not beyond putting on something a little racy just to turn heads once in a while.</div>

<div style="padding: 7px 4px;font-size:13px; color:#999999;font-family:Georgia;">Her strength and agility are hidden beneath the robes she wears when working, but she's very clearly a ranged fighter who likely doesn't specialize in close combat. Always present on her person is a black leather collar around her neck, and she can be seen touching it while lost in thought.</div>

<h3><span class="mw-headline" id="General"><div style="font-family:Georgia;padding:10px 15px; background: #000000;font-size:16px;color:#ffffff; text-shadow: 1px 1px 3px black;letter-spacing:0.2em;"><center>PERSONALITY</center></div></span></h3>

<div style="padding: 7px 4px;font-size:13px; color:#999999;font-family:Georgia;">Kiipa's personality upon first meeting can be vastly different per person. She wears her opinions on her sleeve, and it is not hard to be on the opposite side of a devastatingly low opinion for little more than one's race.
At her best, Kiipa is an easy-going woman with a silver tongue and a playful nature that seeks to pull even the most quiet and reclusive of person out of their shell. She is gentle and almost maternal to those that she regards as in need of protection, but those who she takes under her wing are held to a higher standard than most - it is not hard to fail to live up to her expectations, though she is kind enough not to say so.
</div>

<div style="padding: 7px 4px;font-size:13px; color:#999999;font-family:Georgia;">At her worst, she is a reclusive woman with distinct xenophobic tendencies. The ease with which she flirts at her best is instead replaced by a quick temper and a harsher tongue that easily finds the worst in a person and twists it into a weapon against any who might offend her. She loses her ability to understand and even cope with emotions, often lashing out in anger when patience is desperately needed. </div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia"><font style="color:#333333;" size="3">‡ </font> <font style="color:#999999;">'''Carbuncles'''. Kiipa's adoration for the little creatures came not long after she managed to successfully summon her first. While she travels in the company of her fae more often than not, it's not uncommon to see a carbuncle of blue following in her steps.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia"><font style="color:#333333;" size="3">‡ </font> <font style="color:#999999;">'''Stars'''. An unexplained enjoyment, the vast sky and the glimmering lights hold her interest more than most things tend to.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia"><font style="color:#333333;" size="3">‡ </font> <font style="color:#999999;">'''Music'''. A more private passion that she rarely gets to enjoy as of late, but music holds a special place to her.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia"><font style="color:#333333;" size="3">‡ </font> <font style="color:#999999;">'''Fish'''. Calming for her, nothing makes her happier (short of a few things) than a day spent fishing.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia"><font style="color:#666666;" size="3">‡ </font> <font style="color:#999999;">'''Arrogance'''. Kiipa has little time for those who are arrogant, and she'll spend little time around those who continue to display this unfavorable trait.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia"><font style="color:#666666;" size="3">‡ </font> <font style="color:#999999;">'''Heat'''. Despite having come to reside in the Goblet during her work, Kiipa has never adjusted to the heat of the land... that she's easily sunburned doesn't make it any easier.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia"><font style="color:#666666;" size="3">‡ </font> <font style="color:#999999;">'''Cold'''. While she's fond enough of the cool brought on by a rain in the Shroud, she has no love for the frigid weather found more north than that.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia"><font style="color:#333333;" size="3">‡ </font> <font style="color:#999999;">'''Weaving'''. Her skill with the craft is considerable, and most of her own coin is made with it in some fashion or another.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia"><font style="color:#333333;" size="3">‡ </font> <font style="color:#999999;">'''Writing'''. A hobby encouraged by a lone writer that she met and later befriended, Kiipa finds solace in the crafting of words, and delights in creating stories for the young, and tales for the... older.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia"><font style="color:#333333;" size="3">‡ </font> <font style="color:#999999;">'''Culinary'''. While her meals are generally built around fish or seafood, Kiipa knows her way around a kitchen and isn't afraid to cook up something exotic – as long as she has the recipe.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia"><font style="color:#333333;" size="3">‡ </font> <font style="color:#999999;">'''Love of Learning'''. In Kiipa's eyes, nothing is out of reach or forbidden. While she is sane enough to keep away from dangerous topics, there is little more delightful to her than learning something new, or relearning something she already knows that makes it more efficient or practical.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia"><font style="color:#333333;" size="3">‡ </font> <font style="color:#999999;">'''Integrity'''. Though her moral code is truly her own, she remains steadfast to it even if others might not wholly agree. More than that, she presents herself in a manner that is as honest as it can be – she does not like the idea of giving others a false impression.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia"><font style="color:#333333;" size="3">‡ </font> <font style="color:#999999;">'''Modest'''. It is not uncommon for her to not only not accept given compliments or praise, but for her to throw the compliment onto the shoulders of another. She believes that her works speaks well enough for her, and that the lives she betters are all the praise that she needs.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia"><font style="color:#333333;" size="3">‡ </font> <font style="color:#999999;">'''Loyalty'''. Those who befriend the Keeper woman know that her loyalty to her friends and those she considers her family is paramount. Nothing is too much when it comes to them, and in her, all those she loves find a stalwart companion who will fight to the bitter end for them.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia"><font style="color:#666666;" size="3">‡ </font> <font style="color:#999999;">'''Claustrophobic'''. Tight spaces and crowds are a good way to get the woman backed into a corner and looking for any way out. She'll avoid them as best she can, but as of late has tried to break the fear.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia"><font style="color:#666666;" size="3">‡ </font> <font style="color:#999999;">'''Lack of Self-Control'''. Best seen in conjunction with addictions, or when she's pushed to a point where a choice needs to be made. She becomes easily manipulated, and while she will always admit her failings, she does try her very best to avoid reaching the point of no return.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia"><font style="color:#666666;" size="3">‡ </font> <font style="color:#999999;">'''Alcoholic'''. When worse comes to worse, Kiipa's faithful friend is a bottle of the strongest thing money can buy. Though she restrains herself for the sake of others, when times get hard, she loses what little control she has.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia"><font style="color:#666666;" size="3">‡ </font> <font style="color:#999999;">'''Judgmental'''. First impressions are critical for the woman, and ones that are unfavorable settle deep in her mind and are hard to change. She's not afraid to voice her opinions on most races, viewing Seeker Miqo'te as lesser beings regardless of who they are as people. Harsh and cruel to those who have hit this darker side, it's rare for someone to make it out of the mental cavern she throws them into.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia"><font style="color:#333333;" size="3">‡ </font> <font style="color:#999999;">'''Family'''. Having lost her own during the Calamity, Kiipa seeks to rebuild and form a family whose bonds may not be tied by blood, but instead by love and devotion. Oddly enough, her new family is shaping up to be considerably lacking in fellow miqo'te...</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia"><font style="color:#333333;" size="3">‡ </font> <font style="color:#999999;">'''Children'''. As the matriarch of her family, she believes it is her duty to bring new life into the fold. Old injuries make this difficult, but she has no problem trying as often as she needs.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia"><font style="color:#333333;" size="3">‡ </font> <font style="color:#999999;">'''Learning'''. There is always something new to learn, and no matter what it is... she wants it.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia"><font style="color:#333333;" size="3">‡ </font> <font style="color:#999999;">'''Travel'''. Something of a homebody, her dream is to travel as needed to not only see the world, but aid those who have fallen on hard times.</font></div>

<div align=justify><div style="padding: 7px 4px;font-size:13px; color:#999999;font-family:Georgia;">While her medical knowledge almost asks that she be familiar on a rudimentary level with several different combat styles, Kiipa herself has limited capabilities in a melee capacity. She is nimble and quick, a good sparring partner for simple grappling, but it is in her ranged abilities where her most potent magicks lie.
<br>
Best known for her healing abilities with a fairy at her side, Kiipa's offensive abilities are brought out only when she is most threatened, or absolutely required to cause pain upon an enemy. Where some would attack with sword or axe, Kiipa's magic instead goes below the surface, turning an enemy's body into their own worst enemy. Capable of inflicting sickness, disease, and even weakness without even needing to touch a person, her infections ranging from light illness to devastating plague.</div></div>

<div align=justify><div style="padding: 7px 4px;font-size:13px; color:#999999;font-family:Georgia;">'''OOC Note:''' Kiipa's offensive abilities are based on player extrapolation given the naming conventions of her Arcanist and Scholar abilities. She is, offensively, a plague-bringer. These are moderated depending on event, though she very rarely enters combat offensively. </div></div>

After a few small trials, she is taken in and splits her time between learning and serving.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – Once deemed to be book smart enough to handle herself, she is sent on courier trips to outside towns. She forms a small name for herself as a traveling healer, while privately finding her own combat style.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – After successfully summoning a Carbuncle, the somewhat reclusive and lonely Keeper finds solace in the company of the creature. Her superiors note the change, and there is debate between them as to if she should be coached along the learnings for Summoners or Scholars.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – A chance meeting with the imposing, but friendly, [[Areic Davrun]] leads to conversation about aether and the possibility of a flaming axe. It is during this conversation that she decides to name her Carbuncle, choosing Memory.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – Despite believing it a chance encounter, Areic slowly becomes a steadfast part of the Arcanist's life, sending encouraging words to her when she writes her fears. Amusingly enough, she seems completely numb to his playful flirting.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – No longer needed among the townships of Limsa Lominsa, Kiipa is sent to the corrupt city of Ul'dah, where she experiences the first real signs of stereotypes against her people. Unfortunately, this city is also where she grows to harbor a deep resentment for Seekers, especially the males.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – During a quiet moment of relaxation in the popular Quicksand, Kiipa takes an unlikely step and approaches [[Kian Daas]], and finds someone of relatively like mind. His generally melancholy and grumpy behavior triggers a different mood-set when in his company, and few she comes to meet at the tavern come to know anything but the bubbly persona she exudes in an effort to make Kian smile.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – Once more at the Quicksand in Kian's company, Kiipa's sharp hearing alerts her to a self-defeating conversation, and she joins in, mocking [[Anton Borneheld]] and his choice in clothing while he converses with [[Leif Steele]]. Kian warns her not to pick fights she cannot win, and ultimately Kiipa leaves the bar defeated, but with her head held high. Honestly, those shoes were terrible!</font></div>

Despite her instinctive dislike for Seekers, Vanilla manages to make a good first impression and becomes the first Dreamer to formally invite the Keeper into the halls. Not yet ready to make the plunge, Kiipa declines politely, but later does join the ranks as a background member.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – A friendly enough interaction between Anton and others leads Kiipa into the company of a quiet Duskwight named Felix. Both sensibly choose not to engage in intimacy given their drunken minds, but they grow close over the next several weeks.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – During another bar night on the estate, Kiipa meets [[Gen Quickpaw]], the leader of the Radical Dreamers. Her impression of him is not great, .</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – Felix's confession that his affections for another woman have grown to love devastate the Keeper female, more because she lacks the experience to wholly understand the emotions raging through her. Returning to Limsa, the Keeper is found quite drunk by Kian and Leif, who implore her to cease her drinking. Areic collects her, taking her to his home, where Kiipa has resided during travels to Gridania.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – Areic takes Kiipa to his bed, and asks her to be more than just the stray cat who sleeps in front of his fire. He promises her warmth and love, a home and family, for only her heart. Still stung from Felix's confession, Kiipa accepts. She never feels regret for the quickly made choice, though her feelings for Areic are still confusing to her.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – Kiipa travels north to study more healing pursuits, and nearly dies during her travels. A passing healer manages to rescue the woman, but loses her when Kiipa wanders off after waking in delirium. Kian is alerted by Kiipa's associate, and leaves to rescue his Keeper-sister, but not until after severely crippling his relationship with Leif.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – Kiipa learns of Kian and Leif's separation from Leif, and the resulting fight when Kian appears damages the friendship between the two siblings.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – Areic finds Kiipa baking up a storm in his home, something she is prone to doing only when upset. After pulling her sorrows from her, he tells her that the best thing to do for Kian may simply be to wait.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – Kian and Kiipa meet, and while his initial words are harsh, in the end all is forgiven. Kiipa learns that Kian felt abandoned to his pain in the wake of the altercation with Leif, while Kiipa had simply figured that if the man needed her, he would have called. They part tearfully, with Kian telling her that he's going on a soul-searching trip... and he may not come back.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – While out fishing, Kiipa makes the acquaintance of [[Erimmont Chevalier]]. While initially an annoyance to him, her intelligence and interest in him beyond his body intrigue him.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – As armies flood north, Kiipa and Anton make their own journey to Ishgard. For Kiipa, it is an opportunity to learn more that can benefit the Radical Dreamers. For Anton, a chance to prove to the friend he cares deeply for that his affections are true.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – During a stop in Lavender Beds, Kiipa and Erimmont discuss their own personal lives while Anton rests with the chocobos. He finds them later, seated outside Areic's home.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – Some weeks later, Kiipa begins to lash out at others while feeling ill. Afraid she might be dying, she retreats to Areic's home in the company of Erimmont, hired to tend to her for the duration of her needs. This event cripples the friendship between Anton and Kiipa.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – Weeks pass, and Kiipa is overcome with emotion to find out that she is not dying, only pregnant. Erimmont continues to be a steadfast companion, and eventually accompanies her to Limsa, where she chooses to have her son in the region where she and his father met.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – Kiipa finds herself strained adjusting not only to life with a child, but attempting to field hostilities and jealousies between Erimmont and Anton. Gen begins to play a more integral part in her life, helping her navigate her new motherhood using his experience as a father.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – Erimmont undergoes a personal trial, begging Kiipa to remain away. Despite her misgivings, she agrees to do so.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – Kiipa begins to return to her training on a personal level, developing her prior plague-casting in private.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – Gen becomes more than a mere friend, now a trusted confidante as Erimmont begins a relationship with [[Glioca Sargonnai]] after confessing his love for Kiipa herself. During an intimate moment, Kiipa sees the marks left by the other woman and experiences uncomfortable doubt.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – Glioca and Kiipa converse, and show a measure of friendship while Erimmont rests. The two get along well enough, tied by their affections for the same man.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – Erimmont leaves the Free Company, and while Kiipa encourages him to do so for his own sanity, the action puts distance between them.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – Kiipa miscarries early into a second pregnancy, and experiences intense feelings of self-hate and fear.</font></div>

: <div style="font-family:Georgia;"><font style="color:#999999;" size="2">‡ – Kiipa throws herself back into work, keeping a slight eye on Anton while settling herself into her new place among the ranks of the Dreamers.</font></div>

Despite a few rocky patches as any siblings are like to encounter, there is no doubt in Kiipa's mind that if she had need of him, he would be there. Likewise, there are likely very few who could claim to be more at the grumphus' side... should he ever need her. .</div>

After years of fear that she'd never bear a child, his birth has helped heal many doubts about herself that she held. While he carries his mother's ears and tail, his coloring is clearly Areic's... and the fact the boy is much larger than miqo'te children makes him blatantly the Highlander's boy.</div>

|-
| <div style="font-family:Georgia; font-size:11px;">The closest of friends between the Locte children, Kiipa and Flidais were nigh inseperable since the birth of the younger, which likely attributed to the jealousy shown by the youngest daughter years later. The two worked together in everything, and formed a team so tightly bound that they moved as if one in spirit and mind.</div>

|-
| <div style="font-family:Georgia; font-size:11px;">As the youngest daughter, Nalii had a considerable amount to live up to in comparison to her older sisters. While perhaps more clever than the both of them, and just as resourceful, Nalii chose to use her talents to prank instead of grow. When these pranks became lethal, the term 'catfight' never suited the relationship between them so well.</div>

|-
| <div style="font-family:Georgia; font-size:11px;">As their mother's health began to dwindle after the birth of the boy, Kiipa bonded to him and strove to teach him all she could, hand-in-hand with Flidais. He was loved and cherished, spoiled as only a Miqo'te son would know. There isn't a day that passes that Kiipa doesn't believe herself to be responsible for his death, and the event is a core part of the nightmares she suffers from.</div>

Long since gone are the days where Anton lived off the land, the jungles. Gone are the days where Anton worked happily with family and friends of the Radical Dreamers free company, renamed Might and Magitek--He forges a new path, by axe and by pan, grasping the hand of his partner, with her free company of Jutat De.

Only time will tell if things will go as happily as he wants them to.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Appearance & Personality</div>===
: More often than not, he's sporting a simple pair of black slacks or slops, and a blue or red shirt--When suited up in armor, he's got an Allagan-replica coat, complete with a face-concealing mask and arm/legguards... The outfit seems to protect his core, but leaving limbs plenty mobile for quick movements and long strides. Even in casual clothing, he always seem to have a weapon of some sort on him, be it one of his knives, his pan, or the big Parashu-model axe he keeps in top form. He always has several pouches and a flask attached to his belt.

:Green eyes, black hair, and a ton of scars all over his tanned skin make up the rest of his appearance. Each scar bears it's own significance, and he'll likely tell the story if asked. His hair changes color based on the season, or on a whim--He's been having way too much fun with dyes... Depending on the day, he either freely flaunts his body, his scars, or he hides them completely, to the point that he even wears a mask over his face so even those scars are unknown.

:Personality-wise, Anton has been much happier of late. Developments of two months ago left him homeless and nigh on jobless, but friends picked him back up and set him straight. He's back to cooking on a daily basis, and humming happily as he does so, feeling that his talents aren't being taken for granted this time around, and that he is legitimately valued, not a replaceable part of a whole.

In all, this new life has left him so much less stressed out on a daily basis, and free to pursue his dream of becoming a tavern owner in his own right, rather than a simple chef.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Biography</div>===

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Childhood</div>====

:Most unknown at present. Recent information suggests that his father was an Ala Mhigan refugee, his mother an Ul'dahn prostitute. Father disappeared, unknown causes--Assumed dead? Mother resorted to an endless routine of work to make ends meet.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Teenage</div>====

:Most unknown at present. Mother became sick, likely due to work habits. Anton turned to thievery to help make money, try to pay off medicine. Was able to pay off said medicine, but incurred massive debt in doing so. Medicine was placebo--Mother died anyway. Upon attempting retaliation for fake medicine, his childhood girlfriend was forced to pay the price for his transgressions: She died, as a lesson to him.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Wilds</div>====

:For lack of a better term, Anton was an incredibly unlucky person. His ability at gambling was terrible, and instead of getting out of debt, he accrued so much more debt that it had come to a head--His life, or his money. Being that he had no money, and he didn't particularly want his life to be over... He left. For fear of getting his friends hurt, he said nothing--They couldn't be used as bargaining chips if they didn't know. Just like that, he was gone. His first destination was to Limsa Lominsa, posing as a gladiator mercenary. He had minimal skill with a sword and shield, but figured he could get away with it readily enough, especially if he wore a helmet all the time to hide his identity. After a time, he learned he had quite a propensity for swinging about an axe, and as a pastime, he studied the cooks in the Bismarck. After a while, he was easily able to mimic them, and even understand why they did what they did. After a good while, though, his past caught up with him again--Even with his hair grown out, face grown older, and demeanor changed. He'd learned a different way of life, changed himself around amazingly, but still was not to be at rest.

:To Costa, he ran. They'd been looking for mercs there, right? He could get a job there, easy as that. But no. Not hiring. With that, he fled further inland, right into the wilds. For a while, he stumbled on his own--Barely able to make due. He refused to speak with any traveler, for fear of being found, but eventually it had come to the point that he was on death's doorstep. A roegadyn by the name of 'Inquisitive Mentor' found him, and helped him back to health, teaching him how to survive properly--At this point, he was far enough into the wilds, that it was amazing there was someone else around.

:Mentor was a man who liked to learn. In return for any knowledge he'd gleaned from a traveler, he gave something back--Usually another form of knowledge. Anton had very little to teach Mentor, but even his meager sword-and-board skills were something the big man could learn from. As thanks, the roe took his time teaching Anton how to live in the wilds--What was edible, what wasn't. Where he could find help without going back to civilization, and how to handle the basic predators--A point that he was surprised about, though, was that Anton had yet to run into any of the wildlife, though probably due to him being like unto death at the time.

:They parted ways, and Anton made his way to one of these sources of non-civilization help. The man he met was all too happy for a visitor, and though he never gave a name, taught Anton what is now his most valuable skill: How to <b>really</b> use an axe.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Recent Past</div>====

:Anton became a proud member of the Radical Dreamers, after being found by the single friend who remembered him: [[Tikka Swift]]. A name that assuredly makes not a lick of sense to him, but he didn't particularly care--He had friends there. He had family there. He worked as a melee instructor and chef for the most part, occasionally playing nursemaid to those with only superficial wounds when the true medical heroes, such as his sister, [[Kiipa Nulstat]], were busy. He regularly clashed with [[Gen Quickpaw]], the leader of the company.. Generally over matters of simple nature, yet unable to come to a simple conclusion. One minor facet that he enjoyed, though not an official position, is his job of wrangling the new folks in for a drink and an introduction. Between cooking and tending bar, treating wounds, and teaching, he was a regular in most walks of the estate life.

:Shortly after returning from the wilds, he managed to gather himself up a girlfriend. This, unfortunately, didn't last nearly as long as anyone was hoping--Even bystanders had high hopes for the two, [[Misha Jinhri]] and Anton, but after only a month, Misha left on a quest of soul-searching, to find herself. When she came back, things had changed... And the two, while remaining pleasant friends, were no longer a couple as a result of the findings of that journey, and the time apart. His love-life has remained relatively shattered from then on, progressing onto a helpless puppy love over his best friend, to constant flings with folks from around the company and his side job with the Obsidian Coterie. He thought he'd found something in his boss, [[Sumari Polaali]], but that had turned south when she refused to believe that she could ever come out from under the shadow that Kiipa left.

:He'd tried to mend fences with any number of previous relationships, even trying his damndest to love the smith, [[Katja Hoax]], the person who helped keep him steady after Kiipa abandoned him.. But it was all for naught. His friendships had dwindled to a shadow of what they were, as had his romantic relationships.. His sister barely gave him the time of day, though her daughter, [[Inelaa Locte]] seemed to adore him.. In all of this, he managed to find a blooming flower of a girlfriend in [[Suna Rokuyari]], all by telling her to not take drugs from strangers..

:He was distraught when his sister fell ill, and pledged himself to doing anything and everything he could to find a way to free her from the voidsent infesting her body, but in the end, he felt helpless, and relegated himself to instead making sure her family, his nieces and nephews, were well taken care of.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Present</div>====

:Having been fired from Radical Dreamers, now known as Might and Magitek, Anton was left in a momentary lurch. He turned to sleeping in dark corners, and hunting in his old stomping grounds in the jungles of La Noscea to keep his mind off things. The only thing keeping him from fully regressing into the wildling he used to be was his attachment to the tiny Au Ra girl, [[Aurelia Aerowind]]--His now girlfriend, and partner in crime in all things cake-related. She convinced him to join up with her company, Jutat De, and that is where he remains to date--Though he still has yet to put down roots with them, instead preferring to take up residence in the Mist apartments, across the ward from his sister's home, which he regularly visits to deliver food to her family, and talk to her while she sleeps her endless sleep.

<div style="padding:10px 35px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;"><center>''Relations''</center></div></span></h3>
: <center><font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> Romantic Interest <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> Sexual Interest <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> Platonic Love <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> Good Standing <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">●</font> Neutral Standing <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> Trainee <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> Poor Standing</center>

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Kiipa Nulstat]] : The woman who's done so much to help Anton live a fulfilling life, and the one who he always feels the burning need to make proud. She was his sister, not by blood but by choice--And he loved her fiercely, knowing full well that if ever there came a time where a choice had to be made, her life or his, he'd not hesitate to keep her safe until his end.

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> [[Aurelia Aerowind]] : The little lady who kept him sane after he lost his job with the Radical Dreamers, they've since decided that they are in a relationship. It's apparent that it's a new experience for her, and he's committed to taking things slowly to not spook her--And potentially get himself worked over by her company, or even the lady herself, who is a competent combatant. They met in a bar, working together to take down a particularly murderous swordswoman... And were pushed together as a couple recently by one of Aurelia's friends, [[Mayuri Kotonoha]].

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Suna Rokuyari]] : All he'd said was that she shouldn't take drugs from strangers, no matter what they said the drugs could do. The side-effects could be terrifying... And sure enough, they were. The little lizard girl came to visit Anton at the Dreamer estate regularly afterward, eventually signing on as his assistant in chefliness... And from there, his lover. The relationship did not last long, unfortunately, as she felt that he deserved better than she could offer--But they are still great friends, nonetheless.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Attika Nianu]] : Attika was Anton's star student--Whether that's because she was the only one that stuck around, or because she actually does a good job controlling herself, who knows. She has since traveled to Ishgard and back, occasionally studying with Anton on further combat techniques.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Inelaa Locte]] : At first, she was just the target of his retrieval mission into the Shroud. As he started adding things up, though, it became more and more clear.. Inelaa was Kiipa's daughter. Being that Kiipa had adopted Anton as her brother, that made Inelaa his niece.. And he hasn't taken a single moment extra to start showering her in gifts, ranging from giant stuffed animals to clothing and a book on combat arts--Specifically, around archery. The teenager has done a ton for his self-esteem, and has on her own proven that she's already enough of a woman to handle a crowd of horny people at a poetry slam! She's even recently surprised him with her skill at entertaining, performing a monster-class spooky song to a large crowd of onlookers with ease.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Sumari Polaali]] : She was, and still is, his boss. For a while, they had a romantic thing going on, until she couldn't take it anymore and.. Basically bailed out of it. He wanted to keep things going, but she couldn't believe that Anton would ever love anyone aside from Kiipa, and so couldn't handle the relationship. He gave her time, and tried again months later, but though she was momentarily receptive, it was not to be.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Tikka Swift]] : Tikka. His first friend that he'd found upon leaving the wilds. He knew her from beforehand, and felt incredibly bad for leaving her to her own devices like he did. She'd gone through so much while he was gone, he was determined to try and make it up to her. He'd thought to try and start a relationship with her, but after learning all that he has... He's just not sure if he can. Especially since she seems so young. Probably for the best. He's since realized that she'd not been as clear with her age, and was in fact quite older--And now has no idea at all what to think, aside from the fact that she's mostly machine and now has many babies.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Katja Hoax]] : Once upon a time, they fucked like bunnies over a contract deal. That broke, as did their relationship afterward--One that Anton tried hard to mend after he realized his errors. He failed in that endeavour, his own mind messing him up time and time again... She has since found herself in a relationship with a dragoon from Ishgard, who he has great respect for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Gen Quickpaw]] : Gen was one of Anton's favorite people to have around. He respected the man, even with as much shit as they threw at each other--He's now Kiipa's side-man, though it's more seeming like she's just been absorbed into Gen's family all in all. Gen is, for all intents and purposes a brother-in-law of sorts, being Kiipa's lover... But lately he's taken to avoiding the man, not wanting to cause any more problems with the one who fired him.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Tallera Weaver]] : Crazy voodoo sorceress. Anton ran across her one day, and since then, every time they meet up, somethin' crazy happens--Or they count the whores inside the Quicksand. One or the other. She seems fair convinced that she's a zombie, but he's not convinced--He does know, however, that she /really/ likes watching the stars. Of course, this became quite a bit more clear when he realized that the woman was, in fact, an Ishgardian Astrologian--A star-mancer-mage-wizard. He's got quite a bit of respect for the girl, and what she's been able to pull off, lately. On top of all that, he now works with the crazy woman as his side job, hunting down exotic beasties for parts--And in turn, he hires her for jobs regarding more magical skill.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Misha Jinhri]] : Misha, Misha, Misha. They met as a result of Tikka jumping off a balcony and Anton following her, but they hit it off easily. And, with Leif dodging out of getting a drink with the three of them, they realized that they clicked fairly well... So, they went on a date. And then another one. And decided that, regardless of how fast they were or weren't going, they'd try their hand at being a couple. It didn't work out, but the two are still friends. Or.. They were, anyway. After a long stretch of nothing but disrespect, he's not sure what to do with her anymore.

: <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> [[Emmette Stringers]] : At one point, he worked for her. When she cut him loose with a lie loaded with bullshit, his respect for her went out the window--Along with his liking of her company, the Obsidian Coterie.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Felix Cyprus]] : One of the first people he met in the Dreamers. A stoic guardsman, now turned.. Stoic fistfighter? He wasn't sure what to make of the tall, dark, and lovely man at times, but he did try to call the man a friend.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Jeros Redd]] : Jeros. Technically? Jeros was his superior in terms of both free and grand company. Anton worked with the Maelstrom--So did Jeros, only for much longer. Same, too, with the Dreamers. Nonetheless, Jeros is helping to get the big guy back into fighting shape, after a nasty run-in with a particularly devastating voidsent. Indeed, they very much teach each other. Recently, he's been helping the man put together his past, and helping him unfold his future as a trainee armorer.

: <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Lune Vormold]] : Proper trainee! She came to him asking to be trained in weapons and bodyguard-work at the behest of her master. Anton simply had to oblige, as she seemed so determined--And still does. She's second to Attika in favor, as far as his students have been.

Long since gone are the days where Anton lived off the land, the jungles. Gone are the days where Anton worked happily with family and friends of the Radical Dreamers free company, renamed Might and Magitek--He forges a new path, by axe and by pan, grasping the hand of his partner, with her free company of Jutat De.

Only time will tell if things will go as happily as he wants them to.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Appearance & Personality</div>===
: More often than not, he's sporting a simple pair of black slacks or slops, and a blue or red shirt--When suited up in armor, he's got an Allagan-replica coat, complete with a face-concealing mask and arm/legguards... The outfit seems to protect his core, but leaving limbs plenty mobile for quick movements and long strides. Even in casual clothing, he always seem to have a weapon of some sort on him, be it one of his knives, his pan, or the big Parashu-model axe he keeps in top form. He always has several pouches and a flask attached to his belt.

:Green eyes, black hair, and a ton of scars all over his tanned skin make up the rest of his appearance. Each scar bears it's own significance, and he'll likely tell the story if asked. His hair changes color based on the season, or on a whim--He's been having way too much fun with dyes... Depending on the day, he either freely flaunts his body, his scars, or he hides them completely, to the point that he even wears a mask over his face so even those scars are unknown.

:Personality-wise, Anton has been much happier of late. Developments of two months ago left him homeless and nigh on jobless, but friends picked him back up and set him straight. He's back to cooking on a daily basis, and humming happily as he does so, feeling that his talents aren't being taken for granted this time around, and that he is legitimately valued, not a replaceable part of a whole.

In all, this new life has left him so much less stressed out on a daily basis, and free to pursue his dream of becoming a tavern owner in his own right, rather than a simple chef.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Biography</div>===

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Childhood</div>====

:Most unknown at present. Recent information suggests that his father was an Ala Mhigan refugee, his mother an Ul'dahn prostitute. Father disappeared, unknown causes--Assumed dead? Mother resorted to an endless routine of work to make ends meet.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Teenage</div>====

:Most unknown at present. Mother became sick, likely due to work habits. Anton turned to thievery to help make money, try to pay off medicine. Was able to pay off said medicine, but incurred massive debt in doing so. Medicine was placebo--Mother died anyway. Upon attempting retaliation for fake medicine, his childhood girlfriend was forced to pay the price for his transgressions: She died, as a lesson to him.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Wilds</div>====

:For lack of a better term, Anton was an incredibly unlucky person. His ability at gambling was terrible, and instead of getting out of debt, he accrued so much more debt that it had come to a head--His life, or his money. Being that he had no money, and he didn't particularly want his life to be over... He left. For fear of getting his friends hurt, he said nothing--They couldn't be used as bargaining chips if they didn't know. Just like that, he was gone. His first destination was to Limsa Lominsa, posing as a gladiator mercenary. He had minimal skill with a sword and shield, but figured he could get away with it readily enough, especially if he wore a helmet all the time to hide his identity. After a time, he learned he had quite a propensity for swinging about an axe, and as a pastime, he studied the cooks in the Bismarck. After a while, he was easily able to mimic them, and even understand why they did what they did. After a good while, though, his past caught up with him again--Even with his hair grown out, face grown older, and demeanor changed. He'd learned a different way of life, changed himself around amazingly, but still was not to be at rest.

:To Costa, he ran. They'd been looking for mercs there, right? He could get a job there, easy as that. But no. Not hiring. With that, he fled further inland, right into the wilds. For a while, he stumbled on his own--Barely able to make due. He refused to speak with any traveler, for fear of being found, but eventually it had come to the point that he was on death's doorstep. A roegadyn by the name of 'Inquisitive Mentor' found him, and helped him back to health, teaching him how to survive properly--At this point, he was far enough into the wilds, that it was amazing there was someone else around.

:Mentor was a man who liked to learn. In return for any knowledge he'd gleaned from a traveler, he gave something back--Usually another form of knowledge. Anton had very little to teach Mentor, but even his meager sword-and-board skills were something the big man could learn from. As thanks, the roe took his time teaching Anton how to live in the wilds--What was edible, what wasn't. Where he could find help without going back to civilization, and how to handle the basic predators--A point that he was surprised about, though, was that Anton had yet to run into any of the wildlife, though probably due to him being like unto death at the time.

:They parted ways, and Anton made his way to one of these sources of non-civilization help. The man he met was all too happy for a visitor, and though he never gave a name, taught Anton what is now his most valuable skill: How to <b>really</b> use an axe.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Recent Past</div>====

:Anton became a proud member of the Radical Dreamers, after being found by the single friend who remembered him: [[Tikka Swift]]. A name that assuredly makes not a lick of sense to him, but he didn't particularly care--He had friends there. He had family there. He worked as a melee instructor and chef for the most part, occasionally playing nursemaid to those with only superficial wounds when the true medical heroes, such as his sister, [[Kiipa Nulstat]], were busy. He regularly clashed with [[Gen Quickpaw]], the leader of the company.. Generally over matters of simple nature, yet unable to come to a simple conclusion. One minor facet that he enjoyed, though not an official position, is his job of wrangling the new folks in for a drink and an introduction. Between cooking and tending bar, treating wounds, and teaching, he was a regular in most walks of the estate life.

:Shortly after returning from the wilds, he managed to gather himself up a girlfriend. This, unfortunately, didn't last nearly as long as anyone was hoping--Even bystanders had high hopes for the two, [[Misha Jinhri]] and Anton, but after only a month, Misha left on a quest of soul-searching, to find herself. When she came back, things had changed... And the two, while remaining pleasant friends, were no longer a couple as a result of the findings of that journey, and the time apart. His love-life has remained relatively shattered from then on, progressing onto a helpless puppy love over his best friend, to constant flings with folks from around the company and his side job with the Obsidian Coterie. He thought he'd found something in his boss, [[Sumari Polaali]], but that had turned south when she refused to believe that she could ever come out from under the shadow that Kiipa left.

:He'd tried to mend fences with any number of previous relationships, even trying his damndest to love the smith, [[Katja Hoax]], the person who helped keep him steady after Kiipa abandoned him.. But it was all for naught. His friendships had dwindled to a shadow of what they were, as had his romantic relationships.. His sister barely gave him the time of day, though her daughter, [[Inelaa Locte]] seemed to adore him.. In all of this, he managed to find a blooming flower of a girlfriend in [[Suna Rokuyari]], all by telling her to not take drugs from strangers..

:He was distraught when his sister fell ill, and pledged himself to doing anything and everything he could to find a way to free her from the voidsent infesting her body, but in the end, he felt helpless, and relegated himself to instead making sure her family, his nieces and nephews, were well taken care of.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Present</div>====

:Having been fired from Radical Dreamers, now known as Might and Magitek, Anton was left in a momentary lurch. He turned to sleeping in dark corners, and hunting in his old stomping grounds in the jungles of La Noscea to keep his mind off things. The only thing keeping him from fully regressing into the wildling he used to be was his attachment to the tiny Au Ra girl, [[Aurelia Aerowind]]--His now girlfriend, and partner in crime in all things cake-related. She convinced him to join up with her company, Jutat De, and that is where he remains to date--Though he still has yet to put down roots with them, instead preferring to take up residence in the Mist apartments, across the ward from his sister's home, which he regularly visits to deliver food to her family, and talk to her while she sleeps her endless sleep.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Kiipa Nulstat]] : The woman who's done so much to help Anton live a fulfilling life, and the one who he always feels the burning need to make proud. She was his sister, not by blood but by choice--And he loved her fiercely, knowing full well that if ever there came a time where a choice had to be made, her life or his, he'd not hesitate to keep her safe until his end.

: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font> [[Aurelia Aerowind]] : The little lady who kept him sane after he lost his job with the Radical Dreamers, they've since decided that they are in a relationship. It's apparent that it's a new experience for her, and he's committed to taking things slowly to not spook her--And potentially get himself worked over by her company, or even the lady herself, who is a competent combatant. They met in a bar, working together to take down a particularly murderous swordswoman... And were pushed together as a couple recently by one of Aurelia's friends, [[Mayuri Kotonoha]].

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Suna Rokuyari]] : All he'd said was that she shouldn't take drugs from strangers, no matter what they said the drugs could do. The side-effects could be terrifying... And sure enough, they were. The little lizard girl came to visit Anton at the Dreamer estate regularly afterward, eventually signing on as his assistant in chefliness... And from there, his lover. The relationship did not last long, unfortunately, as she felt that he deserved better than she could offer--But they are still great friends, nonetheless.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Attika Nianu]] : Attika was Anton's star student--Whether that's because she was the only one that stuck around, or because she actually does a good job controlling herself, who knows. She has since traveled to Ishgard and back, occasionally studying with Anton on further combat techniques.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Inelaa Locte]] : At first, she was just the target of his retrieval mission into the Shroud. As he started adding things up, though, it became more and more clear.. Inelaa was Kiipa's daughter. Being that Kiipa had adopted Anton as her brother, that made Inelaa his niece.. And he hasn't taken a single moment extra to start showering her in gifts, ranging from giant stuffed animals to clothing and a book on combat arts--Specifically, around archery. The teenager has done a ton for his self-esteem, and has on her own proven that she's already enough of a woman to handle a crowd of horny people at a poetry slam! She's even recently surprised him with her skill at entertaining, performing a monster-class spooky song to a large crowd of onlookers with ease.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Sumari Polaali]] : She was, and still is, his boss. For a while, they had a romantic thing going on, until she couldn't take it anymore and.. Basically bailed out of it. He wanted to keep things going, but she couldn't believe that Anton would ever love anyone aside from Kiipa, and so couldn't handle the relationship. He gave her time, and tried again months later, but though she was momentarily receptive, it was not to be.

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font> [[Tikka Swift]] : Tikka. His first friend that he'd found upon leaving the wilds. He knew her from beforehand, and felt incredibly bad for leaving her to her own devices like he did. She'd gone through so much while he was gone, he was determined to try and make it up to her. He'd thought to try and start a relationship with her, but after learning all that he has... He's just not sure if he can. Especially since she seems so young. Probably for the best. He's since realized that she'd not been as clear with her age, and was in fact quite older--And now has no idea at all what to think, aside from the fact that she's mostly machine and now has many babies.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Katja Hoax]] : Once upon a time, they fucked like bunnies over a contract deal. That broke, as did their relationship afterward--One that Anton tried hard to mend after he realized his errors. He failed in that endeavour, his own mind messing him up time and time again... She has since found herself in a relationship with a dragoon from Ishgard, who he has great respect for.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Gen Quickpaw]] : Gen was one of Anton's favorite people to have around. He respected the man, even with as much shit as they threw at each other--He's now Kiipa's side-man, though it's more seeming like she's just been absorbed into Gen's family all in all. Gen is, for all intents and purposes a brother-in-law of sorts, being Kiipa's lover... But lately he's taken to avoiding the man, not wanting to cause any more problems with the one who fired him.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Tallera Weaver]] : Crazy voodoo sorceress. Anton ran across her one day, and since then, every time they meet up, somethin' crazy happens--Or they count the whores inside the Quicksand. One or the other. She seems fair convinced that she's a zombie, but he's not convinced--He does know, however, that she /really/ likes watching the stars. Of course, this became quite a bit more clear when he realized that the woman was, in fact, an Ishgardian Astrologian--A star-mancer-mage-wizard. He's got quite a bit of respect for the girl, and what she's been able to pull off, lately. On top of all that, he now works with the crazy woman as his side job, hunting down exotic beasties for parts--And in turn, he hires her for jobs regarding more magical skill.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Misha Jinhri]] : Misha, Misha, Misha. They met as a result of Tikka jumping off a balcony and Anton following her, but they hit it off easily. And, with Leif dodging out of getting a drink with the three of them, they realized that they clicked fairly well... So, they went on a date. And then another one. And decided that, regardless of how fast they were or weren't going, they'd try their hand at being a couple. It didn't work out, but the two are still friends. Or.. They were, anyway. After a long stretch of nothing but disrespect, he's not sure what to do with her anymore.

: <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> [[Emmette Stringers]] : At one point, he worked for her. When she cut him loose with a lie loaded with bullshit, his respect for her went out the window--Along with his liking of her company, the Obsidian Coterie.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Felix Cyprus]] : One of the first people he met in the Dreamers. A stoic guardsman, now turned.. Stoic fistfighter? He wasn't sure what to make of the tall, dark, and lovely man at times, but he did try to call the man a friend.

: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Jeros Redd]] : Jeros. Technically? Jeros was his superior in terms of both free and grand company. Anton worked with the Maelstrom--So did Jeros, only for much longer. Same, too, with the Dreamers. Nonetheless, Jeros is helping to get the big guy back into fighting shape, after a nasty run-in with a particularly devastating voidsent. Indeed, they very much teach each other. Recently, he's been helping the man put together his past, and helping him unfold his future as a trainee armorer.

: <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Lune Vormold]] : Proper trainee! She came to him asking to be trained in weapons and bodyguard-work at the behest of her master. Anton simply had to oblige, as she seemed so determined--And still does. She's second to Attika in favor, as far as his students have been.

Gone is the day where Anton was but a simple wildling, testing out the waters of civilization after having been lost from them for some time. Now, he's found himself.. He's found family.. And he has a place where he belongs. He is no longer held under the sway of a debt, it's carriers dead, dying, or redeemed. He's even found himself an understanding little lady!

Only time will tell if things will go as happily as he wants them to.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Appearance & Personality</div>===
: These days, often found wearing his silver apron, gleaming magitek pan at his side. Pants, gloves, the entire uniform is made from a thick fiber, seemingly heat resistant and even resistant to most slashing--It's not been tested against more than simple swords and knives, though. His preferred choice of headgear, though, seems to mystify all: He'll grab damn near anything and put it on his head. Bandana? Sure. Goggles? Sure. Chocobo hat? Sure. Chef's hat? Doubly so! He only seems to wear these things until a specific Keeper woman tells him he looks silly.. At which point, he trades it out for something much more sensible.

His keen sense of loyalty has yet to falter, but the man seems almost hollowed out by his choices, a shell of a man, made necessary to keep that loyalty. No longer does he interview recruits, or spend time with Kiipa, he.. Most of his time is spent manning the kitchen, or procuring the ingredients needed for the week's meals. He doesn't seem to have much private time anymore..

No longer does he happily greet each newcomer, teasing them with a tale of bravado or a few boastful lies. He's still jovial, yes, but it doesn't really seem to be.. Him. The only times he seems to shine, anymore, are when he's accompanied by his assistant and girlfriend, [[Suna Rokuyari]], or his favored niece, [[Inelaa Nocte]]. When they're around, every move he makes has an added flair to it, simple actions are traded out for tricky ones, all meant to entertain.

His medical training has gone completely unnoticed, a fact that constantly seems to nag at him. He tries so hard to make sure people know that he can, and will, help put people back together.. But even when the company doctor is out, people would rather suffer their pains than let him do much.. Something that makes him feel absolutely useless.

Gone is that sense of an ulterior motive. Gone, just like the sense of wild anger. He's acclimatized to his surroundings, and he has no reason to not trust his company mates.. Except for the one person who he used to trust the most, now constantly leaving him in the dark.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Biography</div>===

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Childhood</div>====

:Most unknown at present. Father was an Ul'dahn-based thief, mother an Ul'dahn streetwalker. Father disappeared, unknown causes--Assumed dead? Mother resorted to an endless routine of work to make ends meet.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Teenage</div>====

:Most unknown at present. Mother became sick, likely due to work habits. Anton turned to thievery to help make money, try to pay off medicine. Was able to pay off said medicine, but incurred massive debt in doing so. Medicine was placebo--Mother died anyway.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Wilds</div>====

:For lack of a better term, Anton was an incredibly unlucky person. His ability at gambling was terrible, and instead of getting out of debt, he accrued so much more debt that it had come to a head--His life, or his money. Being that he had no money, and he didn't particularly want his life to be over... He left. For fear of getting his friends hurt, he said nothing--They couldn't be used as bargaining chips if they didn't know. Just like that, he was gone. His first destination was to Limsa Lominsa, posing as a gladiator mercenary. He had minimal skill with a sword and shield, but figured he could get away with it readily enough, especially if he wore a helmet all the time to hide his identity. After a time, he learned he had quite a propensity for swinging about an axe, and as a pastime, he studied the cooks in the Bismarck. After a while, he was easily able to mimic them, and even understand why they did what they did. After a good while, though, his past caught up with him again--Even with his hair grown out, face grown older, and demeanor changed. He'd learned a different way of life, changed himself around amazingly, but still was not to be at rest.

To Costa, he ran. They'd been looking for mercs there, right? He could get a job there, easy as that. But no. Not hiring. With that, he fled further inland, right into the wilds. For a while, he stumbled on his own--Barely able to make due. He refused to speak with any traveler, for fear of being found, but eventually it had come to the point that he was on death's doorstep. A roegadyn by the name of 'Inquisitive Mentor' found him, and helped him back to health, teaching him how to survive properly--At this point, he was far enough into the wilds, that it was amazing there was someone else around.

Mentor was a man who liked to learn. In return for any knowledge he'd gleaned from a traveler, he gave something back--Usually another form of knowledge. Anton had very little to teach Mentor, but even his meager sword-and-board skills were something the big man could learn from. As thanks, the roe took his time teaching Anton how to live in the wilds--What was edible, what wasn't. Where he could find help without going back to civilization, and how to handle the basic predators--A point that he was surprised about, though, was that Anton had yet to run into any of the wildlife, though probably due to him being like unto death at the time.

They parted ways, and Anton made his way to one of these sources of non-civilization help. The man he met was all too happy for a visitor, and though he never gave a name, taught Anton what is now his most valuable skill: How to <b>really</b> use an axe.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Present</div>====

:Anton is now a proud member of the Radical Dreamers, after being found by the single friend who remembered him: [[Tikka Swift]]. A name that assuredly makes not a lick of sense to him, but he doesn't particularly care--He has friends here. He has family here. He works as a melee instructor and chef for the most part, occasionally playing nursemaid to those with only superficial wounds when the true medical heroes, such as his best friend [[Kiipa Nulstat]], are busy. He regularly clashed with [[Gen Quickpaw]], the leader of the company.. Generally over matters of simple nature, yet unable to come to a simple conclusion. One minor facet that he enjoyed, though not an official position, is his job of wrangling the new folks in for a drink and an introduction. Between cooking and tending bar, treating wounds, and teaching, he's a regular in most walks of the estate life.

Shortly after returning from the wilds, he managed to gather himself up a girlfriend. This, unfortunately, didn't last nearly as long as anyone was hoping--Even bystanders had high hopes for the two, [[Misha Jinhri]] and Anton, but after only a month, Misha left on a quest of soul-searching, to find herself. When she came back, things had changed... And the two, while remaining pleasant friends, were no longer a couple as a result of the findings of that journey, and the time apart. His love-life has remained relatively shattered from then on, progressing onto a helpless puppy love over his best friend, to constant flings with folks from around the company and his side job with the Obsidian Coterie. He thought he'd found something in his boss, [[Sumari Polaali]], but that had turned south when she refused to believe that she could ever come out from under the shadow that Kiipa left.

He's since tried to mend fences with any number of previous relationships, even trying his damndest to love on [[Katja Hoax]], the person who helped keep him steady after Kiipa abandoned him.. But it was all for naught. His friendships have dwindled to a shadow of what they were, as have his romantic relationships.. His best friend barely gives him the time of day, though her daughter seems to adore him.. And, in all of this, he managed to find a blooming flower of a girlfriend in [[Suna Rokuyari]], all by telling her to not take drugs from strangers..

She's the ideal fit for the type of woman he wants as his partner in life.. But it's simply not to be. Poor timing, combined with poor choices, certainly didn't help that. They've gone from great friends, to acquaintances.. Then back up to close friends again, and at current, are little more than co-workers. He strives, so hard, to make her understand that he wants to be her friend, part of her family, but is repeatedly beaten back by her stubborn refusal to believe that he means any sort of well.
: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> [[Suna Rokuyari]] : All he'd said was that she shouldn't take drugs from strangers, no matter what they said the drugs could do. The side-effects could be terrifying... And sure enough, they were. The little lizard girl came to visit Anton at the Dreamer estate regularly afterward, eventually signing on as his assistant in chefliness... And from there, his lover. Whether that was simply a side-effect due to how much she adored him, or it happened naturally, he couldn't turn her down--Though it didn't help that his niece flat out ordered him to take her out on a date!
: <font style="color:#F02311;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> [[Attika Nianu]] : Attika was Anton's star student--Whether that's because she was the only one that stuck around, or because she actually does a good job controlling herself, who knows. Atop that, since deciding that she no longer needs Anton's mentorship and has since come back from Ishgard, she's developed an interest in Anton.. One that's reciprocated, by him and his girlfriend. It's an interesting threesome, two clumsy girls and one.. Guy?
: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Inelaa Locte]] : At first, she was just the target of his retrieval mission into the Shroud. As he started adding things up, though, it became more and more clear.. Inelaa was Kiipa's daughter. Being that Kiipa had adopted Anton as her brother, that made Inelaa his niece.. And he hasn't taken a single moment extra to start showering her in gifts, ranging from giant stuffed animals to clothing and a book on combat arts--Specifically, around archery. The teenager has done a ton for his self-esteem, and has on her own proven that she's already enough of a woman to handle a crowd of horny people at a poetry slam!
: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> [[Sumari Polaali]] : She was, and still is, his boss. For a while, they had a romantic thing going on, until she couldn't take it anymore and.. Basically bailed out of it. He wanted to keep things going, but she couldn't believe that Anton would ever love anyone aside from Kiipa, and so couldn't handle the relationship.
: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Tikka Swift]] : Tikka. His first friend that he'd found upon leaving the wilds. He knew her from beforehand, and felt incredibly bad for leaving her to her own devices like he did. She'd gone through so much while he was gone, he was determined to try and make it up to her. He'd thought to try and start a relationship with her, but after learning all that he has... He's just not sure if he can. Especially since she seems so young. Probably for the best. He's since realized that she'd not been as clear with her age, and was in fact quite older--And now has no idea at all what to think, aside from the fact that she's mostly machine and now has many babies.
: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> [[Katja Hoax]] : Once upon a time, they fucked like bunnies over a contract deal. That broke, as did their relationship afterward--One that Anton tried hard to mend after he realized his errors. To no avail, she slipped through his fingers, to a family that has now disowned her. She's back in the house, but has her eyes set on someone else..
: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Gen Quickpaw]] : Gen is one of Anton's favorite people to have around. He respects the man, even with as much shit as they throw at each other--He's now Kiipa's side-man, though it's more seeming like she's just been absorbed into Gen's family all in all. That alone, Gen's extremely polite treatment of Kiipa, has Anton liking the man more and more.
: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Tallera Weaver]] : Crazy voodoo sorceress. Anton ran across her one day, and since then, every time they meet up, somethin' crazy happens--Or they count the whores inside the Quicksand. One or the other. She seems fair convinced that she's a zombie, but he's not convinced--He does know, however, that she /really/ likes watching the stars. Of course, this became quite a bit more clear when he realized that the woman was, in fact, an Ishgardian Astrologian--A star-mancer-mage-wizard. He's got quite a bit of respect for the girl, and what she's been able to pull off, lately. On top of all that, he now works with the crazy woman as his side job, hunting down exotic beasties for parts--And in turn, he hires her for jobs regarding more magical skill.
: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Misha Jinhri]] : Misha, Misha, Misha. They met as a result of Tikka jumping off a balcony and Anton following her, but they hit it off easily. And, with Leif dodging out of getting a drink with the three of them, they realized that they clicked fairly well... So, they went on a date. And then another one. And decided that, regardless of how fast they were or weren't going, they'd try their hand at being a couple. It didn't work out, but the two are still friends. Or.. They were, anyway. After a long stretch of nothing but disrespect, he's not sure what to do with her anymore.
: <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> [[Emmette Stringers]] : At one point, he worked for her. When she cut him loose with a lie loaded with bullshit, his respect for her went out the window--Along with his liking of her company, the Obsidian Coterie.
: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Felix Cyprus]] : One of the first people he met in the Dreamers. A stoic guardsman, now turned.. Stoic fistfighter? He wasn't sure what to make of the tall, dark, and lovely man at times, but he did try to call the man a friend.
: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Jeros Redd]] : Jeros. Technically? Jeros was his superior in terms of both free and grand company. Anton worked with the Maelstrom--So did Jeros, only for much longer. Same, too, with the Dreamers. Nonetheless, Jeros is helping to get the big guy back into fighting shape, after a nasty run-in with a particularly devastating voidsent. Indeed, they very much teach each other. Recently, he's been helping the man put together his past, and helping him unfold his future as a trainee armorer.
: <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">●</font> [[Ceshiene Kahkol]] : Co-chef, or chef-in-training..? That is yet to be figured out.
: <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Lune Vormold]] : Proper trainee! She came to him asking to be trained in weapons and bodyguard-work at the behest of her master. Anton simply had to oblige, as she seemed so determined--And still does. She's second to Attika in favor, as far as his students have been.

Gone is the day where Anton was but a simple wildling, testing out the waters of civilization after having been lost from them for some time. Now, he's found himself.. He's found family.. And he has a place where he belongs. He is no longer held under the sway of a debt, it's carriers dead, dying, or redeemed. He's even found himself an understanding little lady!

Only time will tell if things will go as happily as he wants them to.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Appearance & Personality</div>===
: These days, often found wearing his silver apron, gleaming magitek pan at his side. Pants, gloves, the entire uniform is made from a thick fiber, seemingly heat resistant and even resistant to most slashing--It's not been tested against more than simple swords and knives, though. His preferred choice of headgear, though, seems to mystify all: He'll grab damn near anything and put it on his head. Bandana? Sure. Goggles? Sure. Chocobo hat? Sure. Chef's hat? Doubly so! He only seems to wear these things until a specific Keeper woman tells him he looks silly.. At which point, he trades it out for something much more sensible.

His keen sense of loyalty has yet to falter, but the man seems almost hollowed out by his choices, a shell of a man, made necessary to keep that loyalty. No longer does he interview recruits, or spend time with Kiipa, he.. Most of his time is spent manning the kitchen, or procuring the ingredients needed for the week's meals. He doesn't seem to have much private time anymore..

No longer does he happily greet each newcomer, teasing them with a tale of bravado or a few boastful lies. He's still jovial, yes, but it doesn't really seem to be.. Him. The only times he seems to shine, anymore, are when he's accompanied by his assistant and girlfriend, [[Suna Rokuyari]], or his favored niece, [[Inelaa Nocte]]. When they're around, every move he makes has an added flair to it, simple actions are traded out for tricky ones, all meant to entertain.

His medical training has gone completely unnoticed, a fact that constantly seems to nag at him. He tries so hard to make sure people know that he can, and will, help put people back together.. But even when the company doctor is out, people would rather suffer their pains than let him do much.. Something that makes him feel absolutely useless.

Gone is that sense of an ulterior motive. Gone, just like the sense of wild anger. He's acclimatized to his surroundings, and he has no reason to not trust his company mates.. Except for the one person who he used to trust the most, now constantly leaving him in the dark.

===<div style="padding:10px 15px; background: #BEC3BC;font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Biography</div>===

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Childhood</div>====

:Most unknown at present. Father was an Ul'dahn-based thief, mother an Ul'dahn streetwalker. Father disappeared, unknown causes--Assumed dead? Mother resorted to an endless routine of work to make ends meet.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Teenage</div>====

:Most unknown at present. Mother became sick, likely due to work habits. Anton turned to thievery to help make money, try to pay off medicine. Was able to pay off said medicine, but incurred massive debt in doing so. Medicine was placebo--Mother died anyway.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Wilds</div>====

:For lack of a better term, Anton was an incredibly unlucky person. His ability at gambling was terrible, and instead of getting out of debt, he accrued so much more debt that it had come to a head--His life, or his money. Being that he had no money, and he didn't particularly want his life to be over... He left. For fear of getting his friends hurt, he said nothing--They couldn't be used as bargaining chips if they didn't know. Just like that, he was gone. His first destination was to Limsa Lominsa, posing as a gladiator mercenary. He had minimal skill with a sword and shield, but figured he could get away with it readily enough, especially if he wore a helmet all the time to hide his identity. After a time, he learned he had quite a propensity for swinging about an axe, and as a pastime, he studied the cooks in the Bismarck. After a while, he was easily able to mimic them, and even understand why they did what they did. After a good while, though, his past caught up with him again--Even with his hair grown out, face grown older, and demeanor changed. He'd learned a different way of life, changed himself around amazingly, but still was not to be at rest.

To Costa, he ran. They'd been looking for mercs there, right? He could get a job there, easy as that. But no. Not hiring. With that, he fled further inland, right into the wilds. For a while, he stumbled on his own--Barely able to make due. He refused to speak with any traveler, for fear of being found, but eventually it had come to the point that he was on death's doorstep. A roegadyn by the name of 'Inquisitive Mentor' found him, and helped him back to health, teaching him how to survive properly--At this point, he was far enough into the wilds, that it was amazing there was someone else around.

Mentor was a man who liked to learn. In return for any knowledge he'd gleaned from a traveler, he gave something back--Usually another form of knowledge. Anton had very little to teach Mentor, but even his meager sword-and-board skills were something the big man could learn from. As thanks, the roe took his time teaching Anton how to live in the wilds--What was edible, what wasn't. Where he could find help without going back to civilization, and how to handle the basic predators--A point that he was surprised about, though, was that Anton had yet to run into any of the wildlife, though probably due to him being like unto death at the time.

They parted ways, and Anton made his way to one of these sources of non-civilization help. The man he met was all too happy for a visitor, and though he never gave a name, taught Anton what is now his most valuable skill: How to <b>really</b> use an axe.

====<div style="padding:0px 30px; font-size:14px;color:#5F5F5F;">Present</div>====

:Anton is now a proud member of the Radical Dreamers, after being found by the single friend who remembered him: [[Tikka Swift]]. A name that assuredly makes not a lick of sense to him, but he doesn't particularly care--He has friends here. He has family here. He works as a melee instructor and chef for the most part, occasionally playing nursemaid to those with only superficial wounds when the true medical heroes, such as his best friend [[Kiipa Nulstat]], are busy. He regularly clashed with [[Gen Quickpaw]], the leader of the company.. Generally over matters of simple nature, yet unable to come to a simple conclusion. One minor facet that he enjoyed, though not an official position, is his job of wrangling the new folks in for a drink and an introduction. Between cooking and tending bar, treating wounds, and teaching, he's a regular in most walks of the estate life.

Shortly after returning from the wilds, he managed to gather himself up a girlfriend. This, unfortunately, didn't last nearly as long as anyone was hoping--Even bystanders had high hopes for the two, [[Misha Jinhri]] and Anton, but after only a month, Misha left on a quest of soul-searching, to find herself. When she came back, things had changed... And the two, while remaining pleasant friends, were no longer a couple as a result of the findings of that journey, and the time apart. His love-life has remained relatively shattered from then on, progressing onto a helpless puppy love over his best friend, to constant flings with folks from around the company and his side job with the Obsidian Coterie. He thought he'd found something in his boss, [[Sumari Polaali]], but that had turned south when she refused to believe that she could ever come out from under the shadow that Kiipa left.

He's since tried to mend fences with any number of previous relationships, even trying his damndest to love on [[Katja Hoax]], the person who helped keep him steady after Kiipa abandoned him.. But it was all for naught. His friendships have dwindled to a shadow of what they were, as have his romantic relationships.. His best friend barely gives him the time of day, though her daughter seems to adore him.. And, in all of this, he managed to find a blooming flower of a girlfriend in [[Suna Rokuyari]], all by telling her to not take drugs from strangers..

: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Inelaa Locte]] : At first, she was just the target of his retrieval mission into the Shroud. As he started adding things up, though, it became more and more clear.. Inelaa was Kiipa's daughter. Being that Kiipa had adopted Anton as her brother, that made Inelaa his niece.. And he hasn't taken a single moment extra to start showering her in gifts, ranging from giant stuffed animals to clothing and a book on combat arts--Specifically, around archery. The teenager has done a ton for his self-esteem, and has on her own proven that she's already enough of a woman to handle a crowd of horny people at a poetry slam!
: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> [[Sumari Polaali]] : She was, and still is, his boss. For a while, they had a romantic thing going on, until she couldn't take it anymore and.. Basically bailed out of it. He wanted to keep things going, but she couldn't believe that Anton would ever love anyone aside from Kiipa, and so couldn't handle the relationship.
: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Tikka Swift]] : Tikka. His first friend that he'd found upon leaving the wilds. He knew her from beforehand, and felt incredibly bad for leaving her to her own devices like he did. She'd gone through so much while he was gone, he was determined to try and make it up to her. He'd thought to try and start a relationship with her, but after learning all that he has... He's just not sure if he can. Especially since she seems so young. Probably for the best. He's since realized that she'd not been as clear with her age, and was in fact quite older--And now has no idea at all what to think, aside from the fact that she's mostly machine and now has many babies.
: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">♥</font> [[Katja Hoax]] : Once upon a time, they fucked like bunnies over a contract deal. That broke, as did their relationship afterward--One that Anton tried hard to mend after he realized his errors. To no avail, she slipped through his fingers, to a family that has now disowned her. She's back in the house, but has her eyes set on someone else..
: <font style="color:#FA70BC;" size="3">♥</font><font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Gen Quickpaw]] : Gen is one of Anton's favorite people to have around. He respects the man, even with as much shit as they throw at each other--He's now Kiipa's side-man, though it's more seeming like she's just been absorbed into Gen's family all in all. That alone, Gen's extremely polite treatment of Kiipa, has Anton liking the man more and more.
: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Tallera Weaver]] : Crazy voodoo sorceress. Anton ran across her one day, and since then, every time they meet up, somethin' crazy happens--Or they count the whores inside the Quicksand. One or the other. She seems fair convinced that she's a zombie, but he's not convinced--He does know, however, that she /really/ likes watching the stars. Of course, this became quite a bit more clear when he realized that the woman was, in fact, an Ishgardian Astrologian--A star-mancer-mage-wizard. He's got quite a bit of respect for the girl, and what she's been able to pull off, lately. On top of all that, he now works with the crazy woman as his side job, hunting down exotic beasties for parts--And in turn, he hires her for jobs regarding more magical skill.
: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Misha Jinhri]] : Misha, Misha, Misha. They met as a result of Tikka jumping off a balcony and Anton following her, but they hit it off easily. And, with Leif dodging out of getting a drink with the three of them, they realized that they clicked fairly well... So, they went on a date. And then another one. And decided that, regardless of how fast they were or weren't going, they'd try their hand at being a couple. It didn't work out, but the two are still friends. Or.. They were, anyway. After a long stretch of nothing but disrespect, he's not sure what to do with her anymore.
: <font style="color:#C24640;" size="3">●</font> [[Emmette Stringers]] : At one point, he worked for her. When she cut him loose with a lie loaded with bullshit, his respect for her went out the window--Along with his liking of her company, the Obsidian Coterie.
: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font> [[Felix Cyprus]] : One of the first people he met in the Dreamers. A stoic guardsman, now turned.. Stoic fistfighter? He wasn't sure what to make of the tall, dark, and lovely man at times, but he did try to call the man a friend.
: <font style="color:#9EC60B;" size="3">●</font><font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Jeros Redd]] : Jeros. Technically? Jeros was his superior in terms of both free and grand company. Anton worked with the Maelstrom--So did Jeros, only for much longer. Same, too, with the Dreamers. Nonetheless, Jeros is helping to get the big guy back into fighting shape, after a nasty run-in with a particularly devastating voidsent. Indeed, they very much teach each other. Recently, he's been helping the man put together his past, and helping him unfold his future as a trainee armorer.
: <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">●</font> [[Ceshiene Kahkol]] : Co-chef, or chef-in-training..? That is yet to be figured out.
: <font style="color:#000000;" size="3">▼</font> [[Lune Vormold]] : Proper trainee! She came to him asking to be trained in weapons and bodyguard-work at the behest of her master. Anton simply had to oblige, as she seemed so determined--And still does. She's second to Attika in favor, as far as his students have been.
