troubler
One who agitates
A troubler is someone or something that causes trouble, disturbance, or unease.
The word appears most often in religious or literary contexts: a troubler of Israel, a troubler of the peace.
It sounds archaic or formal in modern use, where troublemaker is the more common choice.
