````col-mdflexGrow=2.5===# General InfoThe oldest son, Anson is a slender man with prematurely thinning golden hair, a pale complexion, and he is not physically strong. He has not only demonstrated an ability to manage the Blackbourne business effectively, but has proven much more adroit than his father at making use of the family's considerable political clout. Anson, regardless of the time of day, is always willing to widen his circle of influential acquaintances. He is very friendly to strangers if they are well-dressed and mannered, and polite to almost everyone and generally conveys an image of amiability that people respond to warmly. Anson usually sits in for his father at the meetings of the Council of Boroughs, and it is he who keeps the officials of the Ministries of Trade and Ports (and the clandestine powers of the Thieves Guild) content through payoffs and gifts. Anson is always dressed in the latest Blackbourne fashion styles, and has a frame that shows these garments to good advantage; he always carries an elegant walking stick studded with diamonds. Anson has one severe weakness: despite being married (Talia Blackbourne), he has a fondness for cheap trollops and frequently spends his afternoons or early evenings at one of the many houses of prostitution that line [[settlement/the-street-of-silk-veils|The Street of Silk Veils]]. He recently was nearly caught in a disastrous scandal, when a blackmailer obtained information that linked Anson to a young prostitute who had been strangled in the South End. He **believes** he has eliminated that threat by having the blackmailer assassinated.
