They committed crimes to make a living, but did not derive pleasure from violence or stealing. They often avoided violence, because it might lead to more severe actions against them, but had performed the occasional killing of eyewitnesses when the situation called for it. > Or a different person who.... > 3) ... just did whatever they wanted, but were fairly logical about it. They lived a bohemian life, never really running afoul of the law, but going about their daily routine (selling found trinkets and home-made crafts by day, stop by a library afterwards to browse whatever fits a whim, gather food from wherever somewhere along the way). They never really "fit in"- dressing in whatever clothes they thought appealing, speaking freely without regard for the opinions of others, etc, but their actions ended up geared towards providing comforts for themselves, and hence holding a job, home, and the like.
