Anthony Xieneldyss is a half-human, half-demon man who works at Dull Corporation under the watchful eyes of their Boss. His work, while well-paid, is generally quite dull, so they try to liven it up by *slightly* flaunting the dress-code. He talks a lot about his parents, and lives in the poorer section of town.

### Personality:

Anthony is a good-natured and extremely tolerant man who finds whatever joy they can in their otherwise dull job. They do, however, get tired easily when working on their job, and as a result despite the fact that their work literally asks them to go into a different dimension on occasion, he is more or less tired of doing it.

### Events

##### Working 9 to Why?

Anthony invited the party to his cubicle at Dull Corporation, asking them to fill in the paperwork he was behind on in return for his paycheck for the day. The party, following his lead, completed the paperwork without taking any bribes. Happy with the work, he went to staple the files together, only to realise the stapler was empty. He directed the party to follow him into the bin, which actually served as a gate into a realm of office equipment, and helped defeat Lord Stapler to get their paperwork filed before closing time. He gave the party their slip, and thanked them for their help.

##### RP Event - Bad Day?

Anthony re-met with Xavier, and informed them that David had been fired for incompetence. He mulled over the events of Working 9 to Why?, and reflected on his family life. He informed Xavier that his father, a human, had met his mother, a demon of Phlegethos, at a pub when they younger. However, Anthony cautioned against trying to pronounce or write their mother's name. On Xavier's insistence, Anthony repeated the name, causing Xavier's ears to bleed. After apologising, they suggested they come over sometime, and gave them their address.

##### I See You're Looking To Kill A Lord. Would You Like Some Help with That?

Anthony, on break from his shift at the company, invited the party in to help him with a massive problem: several employees had been taken prisoner by the Lord of the Paperclips (otherwise known as Clippy), and in order to mount a rescue mission, he needed the approval of the employee of the month. Unfortunately, said employee was one of the kidnapped. So, before they were able to go down and rescue the employees, they first needed to convince Anthony's boss that they were worthy to get such a title. While the others headed inside to confront the Boss, Aaron waited outside, briefly encountering a person going by the name "David" who warned them against telling anyone he was there. After they successfully convinced the otherwise unsettling Boss that Anthony was worthy of the title, Anthony and the group ventured back into the officework realm (From Quest: Working 9 to Why?) and defeated Clippy, rescuing the employees and Anthony (who had been knocked unconscious in the battle), and earning Anthony's payslip as well as some company gear for their troubles.

##### On The Clock

Anthony, during the weekend, had been asked by the boss to come back into the office in the middle of the company picnic to fix the clock, which had been causing time issues. They brought along a number of people they found near the questboard, taking them into the office to fix the problem. After having the briefest of brief chats with The Boss, Anthony took the party into the office dimension, where they fought and defeated the Clock-King, before swapping their batteries and fixing their wires. Once they did this, the party was taken as guests of honour to the Dull Corp. company picnic. However, J'ai, The Boss' son, became too rowdy after being drunk, and transformed into a demon, which the party were politely asked to knock out. They did so, and Anthony rewarded the party with their paycheck,

#### Pen-porer

Anthony, wanting to ensure they won the awards at the ceremony for the hardest worker the following month, called the party to help them counter J'ai's future cheating by putting in the work of 6 people. Anthony worked with the party on the paperwork until everyone's quills snapped, which they attributed to the Lord of Quills complaining. They joined the party into the bin, being confused at the state of the dimension. Spotting David after everyone else, they confusedly introduced David to the rest of the party, and unsuccessfully defended against both the smaller members and the Pen-porer. They then gave the party money and their favourite pen as a reward once they left.

#### Ferrenport Feud 2/2: (Quest: Family Feud (1976) with secret backstage management issues recorded)

Anthony encountered the party while they were heading to the event. Introducing himself as Anthony, he informed the party that his company, Dull Corporation, would be sponsoring the event to pay for the damages that had taken place the previous night. He tried to inspire some confidence in the party by informing them the guard would have a notable presence, and warned the party about interacting with or approaching someone they referred to as J’ai, noting him to be the son of the CEO and thus prone to drunkedness and bullying of employees he considers as “lesser” to no consequence.

After the competition had finished, Ghann and Altos spotted Anthony embroiled in a heated argument about work ethic with a clearly drunk J’ai. Attempting to split the two up, they succeeded in enraging J’ai who fought the party in his true form along with two of his colleagues. The party successfully fended off J’ai and his co-workers, but only after they had killed Cassius.

#### Immaculate Joe

The party ran into him at the Dull Corporation's Employee Awards Night, where he panicked and quickly hid them in his dressing room. Asking why the party had attended despite him never putting up the sign on the questboard, and despite the fact he was required to kill them on sight, they responded by telling him a demon riot would be catastrophic if left unchecked, to which he agreed. He offered some of his money and assistance in the fight if J'ai let loose on stage. He did, and joined the party in the fight against J'ai and his pet dragon. Anthony was never given the award, and went on the run after not killing the party like he was meant to.
