Profile

A pair of Chasers unaligned with the Guild. Irvine Lune and Molly Crescent are always trying to emulate the legendary bandit pair Typhoon Bill and Hurricane Jane. However, their hearts are too soft, and their heads too thick to ever pull off a heist to the same degree as they. Though they often attempt to steal claims from official Chasers, as well as engage in more basic forms of thievery, their bizarre behaviour, the lavish (and sometime garish) outfits they wear in doing so, and their spectacular lack of subtlety means they are regarded as bemusing crackpots by other Chasers, and embarrassingly uncatchable by law enforcement. The latter is not at all helped by their Terminal Getaway, old technology that enables random teleportation. However, their wanderlust and lack of foresight makes the 'random' part just another perk. And while they do behave like a pair of fools, they are fools armed with dual-purpose firearms. However, underlying all that is the fact that the two actually fool most everyone they meet. They are actually Greaver, animalistic demihumans passing as regular humans.

SOFTIES: For bandits, the two are incredibly kind-hearted and gullible. If they're stealing or attacking something, all it will take is a sob story from those trying to protect it to make them stop, and perhaps even join forces with them against any other threats.

UNRELIABLE: Though their fickle nature makes them dangerous foes, it also makes them unpredictable allies. One never knows if they will get distracted from the main point of the job, help the opposition, or even just wander off. This can potentially make them enemies, or at least demand constant babysitting by allies.

LOUD: Thievery typically demands some degree of stealth. These two (literally) don't know the meaning of the word. Their extravagant garb and attention-grabbing behaviour practically screams 'look at us!' when they're too busy to do it themselves. They are even loud in the olfactory sense, typically wearing lots of perfume and cologne, which marks them for anyone with a strong sense of smell.

TERMINAL GETAWAY: The one constant in how the two work can be the pair's undoing. Terminal Getaway is a weak, undirected teleporter, and those with some degree of control in the same field could easily block it or ensure they arrive somewhere unfavourable. Alternatively, breaking the device or rendering it inoperable would cut off off their escape. Finally, the random nature of its teleportation means that it might shunt the two, say, only 10 feet to the left, instead of allowing them to escape.

PARTNERS: Irvine and Molly are a pair. As such, separating them or taking one out will reduce their combat capability (PL: 33 -> 29). Secondly, being separated will drive the two to reunite with each other before any other objective. If one is seriously hurt, the other will drop everything to see to them, and most likely teleport out right away to seek treatment if none is available.
