NPC Opponents

PvP does not fight the catalog stats shown below for any NPC except the three story bosses. Every other NPC's combat stats are built fresh per fight as a jittered mirror of the ATTACKER's own stats, scaled by a tier multiplier, so the same NPC name fights a stronger opponent harder and a weaker opponent easier rather than with any fixed numbers of its own.

The Arena never reads this catalog at all: its opponents are generated from a separate set of Arena-only tiers. And a jail Most Wanted or regular bust attempt is not a stat fight either: bust odds come from the sentence length, the city's difficulty tier, and any rescuer bonuses in play, never from an NPC's attack or defense.
