Captain Stab McKnabb the Kilted Killer

Many take him for a joke.
Please don't.

Captain Stab McKnabb (a.k.a. Stabby, The Kilted Killer)

"Am I a joke to you?  
— Captain Stab McKnabb the Kilted Killer.
 
Captain Stab McKnabb is a curious fella. The legend about this infamous assassin has been twisted and bent to such a degree that it is nearly unrecognizable to those who know the man who is known to his friends, allies, and enemies as "Stabby."  
— from the Codex Chronicler's notes.
 

Captain Stabby

He got the nickname when he killed an old friend, and at that point a betrayer, exactly 23 times. Which many thought was a bit overkill, but nobody dared mention it.
Whether he was a captain or not, nobody is sure. Nobody really wanted to ask in fear of angering him, and some of his enemies believed with certainty that he actually was the Captain of a group of similar killers who did his bidding. Others thought he once had been a sea captain from the north who had plundered and killed.  
— from the Codex Chronicler's notes.
 

The Kilted Killer

He got his infamous title of The Kilted Killer when he preformed his grandest and possibly last assassination. It happened during a festival in the year of 1539 PD, at the now so-called Plaza of Jarin, where its namesake was celebrating the birth of his newborn child.
Seemingly out of nowhere, Captain Stab McKnabb quickly walked up to Jarin while dressed in a blue kilt. At first, Jarin thought it was an idea of one of his friends had come up with and ridiculed Stab and made him laughingstock; up until Stab stabbed him in the chest four times in quick succession with a hidden knife before slitting the throat in good measure.
Utterly shocked by the act, the guards nearest his now dead target was quickly killed, while the other guards found themselves hit by a surprise attack by a man dressed in plate armor wielding a big sword. A man who was a close friend and ally of Captain Stab; a man who called himself Sir Sneakalot.  
— from the Codex Chronicler's notes.
 

Last sighting

In the ensuing chaos and distraction, Captain Stab inside the city and was seen several times by city guard and civilians. A bloodied man dressed in a blue kilt was not something one expected to see running through the streets at night.
The last ever sighting one had of Captain Stab McKnabb the Kilted Killer was when he jumped headfirst into the sea while being pursued by guards. Since the fall to the high waves was about 25 meters, and the place he dived into had several pointy rocks jutting out from the water's surface, nobody really believes - or want to believe - that he survived. But nobody has ever found the body.  
— from the Codex Chronicler's notes.
 

About Sir Sneakalot

But what about his ally, Sir Sneakalot? He was overwhelmed and taken to a prison cell, guarded by 12 guards, to await the executioner's blade after days of no food and too little water. But on the day of his execution, he was nowhere to be found. And his armor and sword were also gone. Gone, without a trace and with no blood spilled.  
— from the Codex Chronicler's notes.
