Anton Edison

Anton, a character in The Heist: Monaco book, is Niles Edison's son and a potential member of your crew. He is first seen in Chapter 2.

Appearance
Anton has big glasses, a blue cap that covers most of his brown hair, and brown eyes. He wears a blue and green checkered shirt with a t-shirt underneath.

Personality
He is eager to prove himself and live up to his father's criminal legacy. He uses many television, movie, and pop culture references to explain himself or show his enthusiasm. Because he is young and less experienced, he is not very confident in his skills outside of hacking. He tends to ramble and stutter more when nervous.

Niles Edison
He's his father. They don't seem to have a good relationship given that they immediately start bickering if they are both in your crew. Anton believes that Niles too old fashioned, while Niles believes Anton relies too much on technology. In Chapter 13, Niles will wish Anton good luck on his mission and tell him to stay safe. Niles doesn't appear comfortable showing or giving affection, so he leaves it at that.

Your Character
You can choose to recruit either Anton or Blackbird to act as your crew's hacker. He mentions that he is a big fan of your character. In Chapter 13, he tells you that he thinks he is a one-trick pony, that hacking is all he is good at, and that he doesn't believe he could grift his way into the rehearsal dinner. You can build his trust in you and his confidence in himself, and also hack into Ansel Crane's phone if you choose to.
