Your Character
You and Trystan stumble upon Chet in Chapter 10 after you are initiated into the Hand of Mahra, and you ask him what the different masks mean. Albeit being rude to you, he answers your questions, and tells you that if you keep asking for more, you will be in trouble. If you and Trystan get golden masks, you order Chet to either slap himself on the face, drop and give you a hundred, or ascend and take his place among the golds. If you decide to interrogate him in Chapter 11, you find out that he and Bethany were close, and that he showed her the ropes when she joined the Hand of Mahra. He also tells a little bit more about her relationship with Sonja.

Sonja Dormer
Chet had asked Sonja to appraise a statue that ended up being a forgery, and lost a fortune.

Ruth Iverson
Chet is the hedge fund manager of Ruth's husband, Bryce. Ruth doesn't like him, and when Chet sees her, she tells her to tell Bryce to stop ducking his calls, and that now that the market is in a downturn, it's time to buy.

Nick Bastion
When Nick (As Vosegus) attempts to give a speech to the members of the Hand in Chapter 10, Chet attacks him and says that he joined the cult to be somebody, not to get threatened and murdered. He then discards his robe, and stabs Nick with a knife.
