== History ==
He was the leader of a [[Camon's crew|thief crew]] that [[Vin]] worked with.
He was the leader of a [[Camon's crew|thief crew]] that [[Vin]] worked with. He organized a theft on the [[Canton of Finance]] with [[Theron]], the leader of another thief crew. However, after performing his part in the scam and receiving a three-thousand-[[boxing]] advance payment, he decides to run off with the money, ruining Theron's career permanently. When Vin used [[Allomancy]] on an [[obligator]] in the Canton of Finance, [[Bendal|an Inquisitor]] was set on his trail.{{book ref|mb1|1}} As punishment for his cruelty to Vin, he is ousted by [[Kelsier]] and becomes a beggar.{{book ref|mb1|3}} He is later killed by the Inquisitor to send a warning to [[Kelsier's crew]].{{book ref|mb1|11}}▼
About six years before the [[Collapse]], Theron, a leader of a thieving crew, discovered that the [[Steel Ministry]] secretly moved a large amount of funds to [[Luthadel]] along with acolytes transferring to Luthadel for their final instruction. Over the next five years, he spent thousands of [[boxing]]s to create the perfect opportunity to steal these funds, creating the appearance that [[House Jedue]] was financially desperate. This included faking contracts for House Jedue to "loose," such as the '''Farwan''' deal, the "loss" of which made it appear as if House Jedue could no long afford to run its canal boats to Luthadel. This appearance, in turn, allowed him to apply for a contract with the [[Canton of Finance]] to run the canal boats that transported the acolytes, and make the offer extremely appealing by offering a significantly reduced price without it appearing suspicious.{{book ref|mb1|1}}{{book ref|mb1|2}}
To sell the con, however, Theron needed someone to play the role of Lord Jedue, and so reluctantly partnered with [[Camon]].{{book ref|mb1|1}} Camon played along, but he knew Theron's resources were stretched thin. After securing the contract, Camon betrayed Theron and simply took the three thousand boxing down payment, abandoning the plan to actual run the boats and steel from the convoy, and leaving Theron to deal with the Ministry's wrath when it discovered it had been scammed.{{book ref|mb1|2}}
