@paradisekillher this is going to age me horribly but the point and click Kyrandia games (1990's) had an evil scheming Jester as the main villain (and in one game main character). Not something I expect the student to be aware of though.

@yourmorals thought this said married to ned and i was like flanders? nickerson?

@paradisekillher Like other people already said, that's not even a thing in Digital Circus in the first place. Maybe it would have been better for educational purposes to ask them where they had seen that trope before rather than just making assumptions?

This is why teachers should play some video games. There's quite a few of those in there. There's some in Opera. I'm sure there's some in writing. Kekfa Palazzo is one of gaming's more well known jesters.

a student was talking today about the common trope of a jester betraying royalty and the language arts teacher and i looked at each other like that’s not… that common

@SLINGSHOT_BOOM fiction wise, shakespearean fools are always a good start! feste in the twelfth night, touchstone in as you like it, the fool from king lear. they lean more cynical and aware since they’re meant to be truth-tellers, different than the chaotic harlequin type

@paradisekillher do you know where i can learn about jesters ? 👀 i love them a lot and want to make characters based around jesters but a lot of media is like rebellious crazy insane jester

@Powergannon it’s based off theories, not necessarily what’s happened in the show

@paradisekillher There’s no jester who betrays royalty in TADC though, so where is that connection??
