#### Background Story

*The former executive commissioner who was expelled by the former chief referee because of the crime of guarding theft. For some unknown reason, after the new chief referee took office, he was recalled but he was no longer appointed as the executive commissioner and was responsible for helping the chief referee to pass messages to some special people.*

**Design Notes**

*For the philanthropist messenger fashion, we wanted an uncluttered messenger setting. We wanted a messy, casual dress code that would give the impression that he was rushing to the courthouse before he had time to get dressed.*

*The philanthropist corresponds to Mammon, the code name for greed, so we added some small designs of coins hidden in his clothes to emphasize the attribute of greed.*

*Based on the above, we designed three versions of the sketches, and combined them with the more personable Scenarios 1 and 2, in order to strengthen the characteristics of greed and finally complete the design of the messenger.*

## Trivia

* The costume is based off of one of the 7 deadly sins, Greed.
	+ It is contrasting to Ant from the related essence storyline, who represents the virtue of Charity.
* Deputy court clerks assist with the preparation and processing of court cases.
* The Announcement for Season 13 Essence 2 wrongly calls this costume **Messenger**.
* This is Kreacher's 4th A Tier Costume and his 2nd permanent A Tier Costume.
