"Wanna hear a joke?"

Name:Jack "Harlequin" Trottel
Age20
GenderMale
PersonalityJack is first and foremost an entertainer, and to be more specific, a comedian. He is rather approachable and outgoing and will attempt to entertain people any chance he has, be it an inappropriate time for a joke or not. Along with his sociable nature he is quite comedic and humorous. That being said, he does make rather distasteful jokes at times, not really caring where or when to look at something on a brighter more idiotic side of things. He is quite extroverted and when it comes to his outlook on the objects around him he is a nihilist. Everything and everyone is truly worth nothing in the greater scheme of things and he is aware of that, but he doesn't care. That just means everything is equivalent, whatever brings him meaningless happiness is what he shall do. Jack is a hardcore optimistic nihilist really. Everything doesn't matter, but then why should everything else matter? He will make his own morals and goals, even if they are rather subjective and only exist in his own mind.

He is rather different from everyone else, the way he dresses, speaks, and acts. It is hard to find people similar to him. He is rather confident but never arrogant or cocky. He loves people and everything really. He seems and acts like a naive innocent fool.
He feels compelled to entertain. If he does not, then why would he be here. If not to amuse others...
Jack is a performer and must have an audience. It is the whole entire purpose of performing in his eyes. When entertaining, his darker side is shown. And every performer needs an audience, it is for this reason that he occasionally kidnaps civilians, to give them a good show. Truly, when these occurrences happen, Jack is the on entertaining himself with the squirming beings making unintelligible sounds of fear. Jack really all along was entertaining himself, not truly pleasing or making anyone else laugh. The purpose of him existing is to amuse and entertain himself with the walking wretches of flesh that look down on him. If he keeps laughing at them perhaps he can stop crying.
AppearanceJack is 5'11" and has a rather skeletal frame. The hat adorned with a sapphire was stolen by Jack.
Biography His father was a "natural" fool who had quite the knack for making people laugh. He was owned by one of the wealthy family's and was quite the entertainer. The jester was so successful he was capable of buying a house with money to spare. One day he discovered a baby left at that house that he bought. Why his house and not a church of some sort is unknown to him. Anyways, he may have made rather vulgar dark jokes but he was far from soulless. He took the child in and name him Jack. Jack grew up in rather pleasant surroundings because of the jester's mysterious success.
The jester and his son lived happily, eating and drinking fine delicious food only because Jack's father would follow a man around and make him laugh. Eventually, the jester made a distasteful joke about a recent war that was lost, unaware that the man who put money in his wallet knew many who died. Afterward, in a cartoonish like fashion his head was cut off while his son watched. It would teach him a lesson perhaps when he replaces his father hmm? That wasn't funny. Jack planned to avenge his father and kill the wealthy man who sentenced him to die in such a primitive brutal style. During his sleep, Jack approached his bed. No need to laugh before the joke was over, but Jack couldn't help it. The wealthy man awoke, hearing a child's laughter, before Jack plummeted his fathers scepter into the mans throat. Now he could laugh. Well, no. He couldn't laugh. Anyways, Jack made a run for it and stayed hidden until everyone stopped looking. Jack was now at the bottom of society and was preforming for the poor who could offer him no more than he already had. It was a fair exchange in his mind. His father's life disappeared without anyone caring for some reason though. It bothered him. Unnerved him. He despised how some deaths were more noticed than others. It wasn't funny at all....
Weapon:

The stick is made of a hard durable metal, is 5 feet long and the skull looks more realistic.... Hats basically the same though. He owns multiple of these and uses it as a club or short staff. He is quite skilled at using it in either fashion.
Other:

He always carries around a deck of Tarot cards made completely of The Fool card.

This jester carries around multiple objects that can be used for possible tricks

He has a tendency to not kill his targets/person-who-is-fucked immediately gut instead tie them up and attempt to make them laugh. Afterward, killing them in an ironic manner if possible or just making it humorous for himself. He is a bit of a sadist in this fashion, but it is more the fact that their pain makes him laugh instead of their pain alone. If they dont squirm or attempt to escape then he might as well be defiling a dead body. And corpses are just a bunch of kill-joys who never laugh

He is a pansexual

He seems to have some kind of strange thing where he is easily aggravated if he is the butt of another's joke for some reason.

He has bright yellow and orange footie pajamas that resemble a donkey in the way they have an ass's ears on it's hood. Grown-ass man with footie pajamas. Deal with it.
