| abstract | - The Bole brothers were rather famous members of the Mott Irregulars. They apparently numbered twenty-three and were all tall and considered "smart" by their compatriots, at least some of them. Though they could not read, they could count past ten and displayed an abiding hatred of necromancers. They had once made a messy example of one necromancer squatting on their land and strung up what was left of him at the Low Crossroads as a warning to others. They were considered to have an unusually good 'survival rate' (despite their seeming lack of common sense) in risky situations because they were thought to have been born with the "gift of survival" - given to them by the Salamander God, Stump Flit, (a patron deity, of sorts, of the Boles). There was also reportedly one Bole sister, who was said to be the worst of the lot.
