When i first opened up bonehunters i turned to the characters section and to my suprise there was a character called Crump, which happens to be my last name, and one that i am known by to most of my friends. I quickly wondered what sort of character he would be, hoping for one like brys or cutter, but i had a feeling that this would not be the case. well i was correct he was an idiot, who probably deserves to be dead.

Now he is actually one of the mott irregulars, and was supposedly kicked out, snow the boles are supposed to be the meanest mages so why didnt he use any magic, and i would like to know what he did to get kicked out, must have been pretty serious?

Crump = Jamber Bole.. so one of the infamous warlock family..?
Perhaps he did use magic and it was countered.
I hope we might see more of the Bole brothers in later books by either ICE or SE :p

The Bole brothers don't really act rationally or as others act, so to call him an idiot may be a bit harsh. They seem to act when the feel like it, not always in the most productive ways. That is what makes them so dangerous, is their power combined with their unpredictablity.

Are all the Mott Irregulars mages, or just all the Bole brothers?

That aside, just because one is/was a mage doens't mean one is all that good at it or likely to use the talent. There was at least one sapper/mage in the Bridgeburners in MoI.

Crump was clearly insane, anyway. The mess he made of the YGhatan wall strike... argh. Fun tho'. Amazing that no one killed him by the end.

- Abyss, nominates Crump for Best New Character Deserving a Painful Death.

Thinks Crump is hiding in plain sight a spy sorta. Vaguely remember a conversation in one of the prev books, MoI I think where one of the Mott Iregulars High Marshal somthingorother tells someone Paran? Whiskey jack?that they had Infiltrated every army/group on the march and seemed to know what everyone was doing before they did.
I think His title would be High Marshal Jamber Bole.
and I think the Bole Bro's were renowned for dealing with Sorcerors an such. dont beleivethay are all mages just a few of them big family tho I think 7 bros?
they lit out after Bauchelain and Broach did they not?, or someone in the book stated something about KB & B not wanting to draw the Bole bros attention to them.

The Bole brothers go after our jolly duo in the end of MoI. Nobody actally knows if they survived, but given the profecy B did on Mancy in BF, I think they just got another asskicking.

there 21 bole brothers and one sister whos meant t be the worst i think. Also hes a warlock not a mage. QB quote saying youll never find them in a forest eans they blend in kinda thing. in a desert i doubt there was much use for a swamp snufffling warlock. Neway crump should be killed. really definitely. it is getting on my nerves how no ones killed him. he cost the lives of sappers and his quote of i made it myself s so frustrating as he should be killed

Lol, I find him to be one of the funnier funny characters in tBH, Celorast and Turdle got a bit irratating. But Crump is definitely one of SEs seemingly stupid geniuses of the series.

Then again being one the Bole brothers, calling him an idiot could be paying him the highest of compliments.
I think theres nothing like a bit of psychotic to make the story more interesting:D

yeh but not as funny and incredibly frustrating.

ok imagine the voice of someone with down syndrome (dont no one g oall politically correct on me for saying people who have it are retarded) going but i made t myself. he then kills around 20 sappers. probably more soldiers as apparently due to the blast there were stones as fast as sling stones

Backing it up tho', he DID mislay the cussers, causing any amount of death. I suppose everyone knew YGhatan was going to be a bloodbath in any case, but still... geez.

The peeing on the altar thing, well, we'll chalk that up to stress. :)

- Abyss, sssssssssssssssss

i will say of all the things he has done the huge cusser explosion at Y'Ghatan is waay ahead of everything else. Thing is he is fearless he either doesn't understand or doesn't care about the consequences of his acts.
