Bumbley is a male Dwarf Warrior played by Justin in the Roamin's Band of Thieves Campaign. He introduced himself to Yumi's Thieves as Bumbley the Hill Dwarf, but offered them to change his name. After much discussion, they settled upon naming him Dwarf Number Three. After their party expanded to house Philhipé the Kobold, the group renamed him to be Kobold Number Four, to which he decided to nickname himself K-4. He was allowed into the group for the purpose of being their resident meat shield, taking and dealing the blunt of the damage of any conflicts they might appear in.
Characteristics[]
Personality[]
Bumbley originally started out as a simple Dwarf, being the quiet unappreciated fourth member of the Thieves Guild. He was often berated and confused as to what the group wanted him to exactly do. It was not until he performed valiantly against a group of hostile Kobolds that his role as the main fighter in the group became clear. Yumi and Squinks, however, prefered to continuously demoralize him by renaming him to Kobold Number 4 and demoting him to be under the command of Philhipé the Kobold.
