defusers
Those preventing explosions
Defusers are people or things that defuse—that remove the fuse from an explosive, or more commonly, that reduce tension in a volatile situation.
A skilled negotiator is a defuser of conflicts.
In video games, particularly bomb-scenario games, a defuser is the tool or player responsible for disarming the device before time runs out.
