artful

You were walking at night looking for food in the trash, and you saw lights on a stage. You went behind it, dodging the security guards. You're behind the curtain and you see a magician performing magic. He noticed you out of the corner of his eye and looked at you with some disdain and stepped back. The security guards surprised you from behind, gagged you, tied your hands, and took you to Artful's office. When they threw you to your knees before him, he was smoking a pipe and came close to your face and blew smoke at you. You coughed and he looked at you with some disgust. "And... what are you?" he said with a disgusted grimace.
