__TOC__
==Characteristics==
===Appearance===
Bumbley is a male Dwarf with a muscular build, a long, thick brown braided beard, and green eyes. Bumbley wears a black undershirt, blue pants, a green tie in his beard, brown shoes and gloves. Bumbley wears a golden broach and a red sash around his waist. For combat, Bumbley wears sleeveless Steel Plate Armor with "K 4" written in black on his pectoral muscles. Bumbley also wears a metallic helmet that has horns attached to it.

===Personality===
Bumbley originally started out as a simple Dwarf, being the quiet unappreciated fourth member of the group. 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 [[Kobold|Kobolds]] that his role as the main fighter in the group became clear. Yumi and [[Squinks]], however, preferred to continuously demoralize him by renaming him to Kobold Number 4 and demoting him to be under the command of [[Philhipé]]. After being renamed to Kobold Number 4 Bumbley nicknamed himself K-4 and decided that he wanted everyone to start calling him that. As the party progressed through their adventure, K-4 developed a stronger personality and became more aggressive towards [[Yumi]] and her authority.  K-4 becomes very hostile towards Yumi after asking her to use the name K-4 but Yumi still taunted him by calling him his full name, Kobold Number 4.

===Relationships===
K4 was regarded as the patsy of the group, mostly by Yumi and Squinks, who constantly belittled him. Within the group, he was often punished for mistakes or forced to the back during conversations. This caused him to resent the group and stayed with the [[List_of_Minor_Characters#Monkey Fish King|Monkey Fish King]] after the group split up during the battle at the Sunsword Village.

==History==
===Background===
Not much is known about about Bumbley's past other than he was hired into Yumi's Band of Thieves to be their resident meat shield during battle and to have some diversity in their ranks. He was hired prior to Yumi accepting a job offer from Nisovin. During his hiring process, he introduced himself, but offered to have his named changed by the group. After much discussion, they settled upon naming him Dwarf Number 3. They then visited Nisovin at his house and discussed the job: stealing a key from [[Gwyneth Sunsword]].

===[[Band of Thieves]]===
Bumbley joined Yumi, Squinks and Gracias during their mission to steal the key from the [[List_of_Organizations#Gwyneht Sunsword's Sunblades|Sunblades]]. During their trip, they had an altercation with a group of Kobolds who thought they where stealing their gems. After brutally murdering one, and knocking out the others, they met with Gracias's new friend, [[Philhipé|a Kobold named Pete]]. Pete was then indoctrinate within the group by renamed Philhipé, and demoted Dwarf Number 3 to "Kobold Number 4," underneath Philhipé in the chain of command. 

After some arguing, they met with the bridge gnome [[List_of_Minor_Characters#Nessie|Nessie]], whom liked dwarves enough to allow K4 to pass in exchange for his Amulet of Bones. However, K4 was tricked by a young Gnome girl who gave him a kiss, but stole his Bladeturn without his knowledge. Once the rest of the band made it out, they noticed several Elves standing guard over the entrance to a forest. Successfully sneaking by them, the group entered the forest hallway only to be met with an army of Blood Snakes and a Blood Snake King. They battled their way through. forcing their way into the grotto beyond the Snake King which held the Monkey Fish.

After discussing a plan of action, they sent Squinks out in a disguise to seek the key, only for the rest of the band to be hunted by the Sunswords. Yumi, Gracias, Philhipé and K4 then delve deeper in the cave to meet with the Monkey Fish King. After discussing their intentions, the King decided to help the thieves by hiding them from the Elves. This allowed the band to sneak in and hunt for the Key, only to be confronted by [[Gwyneth Sunsword]], her Sun Hound [[Fenrus]], and several Sun Cleric Elves. After an unsuccessful battle, K4 jumped down a well to escape being captured.

===Fate===
After escaping the Sunswords, K4 stayed with the Monkey Fish King, living with him in some form of luxury.

==Non-Canon History==
===[[The Many Gobos of Pat]]===
In the non-canon campaign, [[The Many Gobos of Pat]], [[Dankie]] received a crystal flatscreen for his birthday from his adoptive father, [[Pattenborrow Threecircle]]. Dankie accidentally hit the buttons 'K' and '4' through the flatscreen's remote. Through the flatscreen, the Goblins saw that Bumbley was in a grotto with the [[List_of_Minor_Characters#Monkey_Fish_King | Monkey Fish King]]. He was being massaged by the King while he was completely naked. This caused much confusion with the Goblins, and when Pattenburrow came to check on them and saw that they were watching "smut", he disenchanted the crystal flatscreen.

===[[Okagnoma Guild Hall]]===

When the class of the Okagnoma Guild Hall was forced to confront [[Dalfgan]], the 2 Headed Ogre wizard, [[Suzanna Sophia Sorrella]] decided to use her [http://live.urealms.com/cards#treasure-01007-consumable-tamboksandjar Tambok Sandjar]. Doing so released a book and a [[Believer]], and the Believer possessed the book, becoming Bumbley. With a trusty Monkey Fish companion, Bumbley helped the class fight Dalfgan.

==Trivia==
* There is a superstition that whenever K4 is brought up in a campaign, that the players will roll 4 an abnormal number of times. It is called "the Curse of K4."
* Bumbley's renaming to Kobold Number 4/K4 might be a reference to Douglas 3 (normally referred to as D3) from the Original Unforgotten Realms web-series.
* Bumbley was nominated into the [[Tambok's Special Friend Show]] by Justin in [[The Unseen Rogues]].
* Bumbley is the character featured on the [[Warrior]] Class card for Season 2.
* Bumbley is the first player character to appear as a [[believer]] in one campaign and real in another campaign.
