Appearance: Very lean and energetic a master acrobat and aerialist. Stamina and agility are two of the attributes he displays the most. His lean frame gives the suggestion of muscle, but it's concealed under the black clothing that he wears-never a stitch of color is on Jester's clothing, save for the cap he wears.

Background: Born in Tamerlane to an unwed and underaged mother, Jester was left outside the ringmaster's tent of a traveling circus. He grew up a natural acrobat, excelling in all manner of circus arts before the age of eight, thus he is an excellent hand to hand combatant. Although not as physically strong as most of his opponents, Jester makes up for it in speed.

Strengths: speed, agility, stealth and subterfuge. He's a master of the Garrotte and it's many variations, as well as numberous projectile weapons, such as stars and small daggers. He will also toss marbles at an enemy to distract them.

Weaknesses: Holy and Light magic and anything that constricts, he's terrified of tightplaces. He's also insane, and his judgement is often driven by impulse, which can either help or hinder a situation.

Other: Jester is not evil, though he's shadow based, he's really only mischievious...but he has a malicious streak in him that is only amplified by his insanity.

Limit Skills
I. TIGHTROPE - Jester will snap his Garrotte out, snagging his enemy by the throat, then toss his end into the air, jump after it and land on the rope after regaining his hold, generally snapping the victim's neck
II. WHIRLING DERVISH - Jester will quickly wrap his victim in his Garrotte, then yank it, sending them spinning before he allows the rope to coil around the enemy's throat, strangling them.
III. SLIP KNOT - Jester snares his opponent, then quickly rushes forth to tie the Garrotte around their neck, then swings them over his head.
IV. GUILLOTINE - Jester coils the Garrotte around his opponent's throat, then calls on his shadow magic to disolve the rope's corded coating and leave only the wire underneath, yanking on the Garrotte after the transformation, beheading his victim as the wire uncoils itself.


Guardian Stats
RIKKI TIKKI
A shapeshifting shadow with a taste for chaos, Rikki Tikki is as spontaneous as Jester is and will often insight trouble to see the reaction it brings. His attack is called Funeral March, and when summoned to use it, Rikki Tikki simply singles out any two opponents-OR allies, depending on his mood, and if one dies, the other goes too.
