Crunch

Crunch is the head bouncer at Maelstrom. He also helps provide protection for Vox Tempest. He has a twin called Crush, who works as a dancer at the same club.

History
Both Crunch and Crush fled Phrike to Phobos just before the beginning of the war for unknown reasons.

Crunch met Vox five years ago, as Vox rose in fame through his information brokering network. Unlike many of the other citizens of Phobos, Vox did not hold the fact that Crunch came from a Fractured world against him. In fact, Vox was more than eager to offer both Crunch and his twin Crush a job in the nightclub he was opening, which they both gladly accepted.

Crunch now acts as official head bouncer. Any complaints about the fact that there is a Fractured species manning the door tend to go unheeded by Vox.

Following the injuries Vox took after the events of The Nova's work for Anek Allegro, Vox has requested Crunch and several of the other bouncers accompany him on future missions for protection.

In-game appearances

 * Crunch was seen escorting Miracle Belle to her VIP area one night at Maelstrom. Anek Allegro was in her entourage, and did not look very impressed at Crunch's inclusion.
 * Vox had Crunch and the rest of his protection wait outside "Bullet" tower whilst himself and the rest of The Nova carried out their mission inside. Crunch and the crew got hot dogs whilst they waited for their boss and watched parts of the building blow up.
 * After The Nova managed to trigger every alarm in the hotel, as well as cause several explosion, Crunch was seen asking Arno Stern whether he reckoned Vox needed his help yet. He then let Arno borrow his phone.
 * After Vox called Crunch requesting backup as he made his excuse in the Eternal Drift, Crunch, Pearl and Oatmeal were seen blowing up the pursuing ship before responsibly disposing of their food wrappings.
 * Crunch was seen stopping Vox at Maelstrom the following night, to tell him that Lei Carter was a good person who deserved to be left alone. He looked distraught and slightly guilty when Vox asked whether Lei was happy.
