STUNT and BUMPER
"Stunt" is a thief and a misogynist. He is famous for his rooftop robberies and has no qualms about killing.
"Bumper" is a polite pickpocket. He will greet you with smiles and compliments as he relieves you of your belongings.
Despite their differences, Stunt and Bumper are best friends who share a hatred for their arch-nemesis, Dominic Deegan.
BRIEF HISTORY
If Stunt and Bumper have real names, they aren't telling anyone. The criminal duo have been going by their nicknames since they met in a back alley, somewhere in a poor village on the outskirts of Callan's borders.
Stunt has hated women for as long as anyone can remember. He claims a woman murdered his mother, and his father ran off soon afterwards. Bumper, on the other hand, has always been polite and courteous to the fairer sex. Some say it's his natural semashi charm. Others say it's because he likes to get close to women as he robs their purses. No one knows if the stories are true, but somehow the two of them have always survived as a team.
Their nicknames are representative of their style. Stunt is far more acrobatic than Bumper, and prefers rooftop robberies and knife-point muggings. He's killed a few people in his day, but so far it's been other underworld types and other kinds that the authorities would want dead anyway. Bumper, of the dark-skinned semashi people to the west, uses his natural charm to put his victims at ease while his deft fingers relieve them of their valuables. He has never killed anyone, but has hurt a great deal of people.
Stunt and Bumper became more confident with their small-time robberies and decided to move on to "bigger pastures." They picked the well-to-do town of Lynn's Brook and moved their operations there, claiming the road to the Crescent Star Lake as "their own" along the way. They met with success, until they learned of a seer on the outskirts of town. They picked him as their next target, and quickly made a powerful, grumpy enemy.
CURRENT STATUS
Stunt and Bumper have yet to "one-up" Dominic Deegan. Even when they appear to catch him unprepared, Luna Travoria has always been there to save him from their wicked intentions.
They've been on quite an unlucky streak lately. They were caught by Lord Siegfried, nearly killed by the raging servant of the Infernomancer, and just recently imprisoned in a Sin City dungeon. No one can really figure out how they manage to escape every time. Who knows if their luck will ever change?
