GAME APPEARANCES

Gauntlet: Legends (Dreamcast port only, 1999) Gauntlet: Dark Legacy (2001)

Opening
The Jester is summoned by Sumner, who tells Jester that a mysterious new force is wreaking havic across the land. Sumner then instructs him to visit new realms and defeat anyone in his way. Sumner then teleports Jester to the first realm.

Rival
Name: Evil Wizard Garm

Reason: The Jester is eating a turkey leg when he sees Garm looking around. The Jester sneakily chucks a bomb at him, but misses. Garm then notices Jester, as Jester then said that he knew Garm was behind this. Garm however explains that its not him, and that he is trying to regain enough power to summon Skorne again. Jester says that he can't let that happen and prepares for a brawl.

Connection: The main villian of Gauntlet is Garm this isn't hard to understand

Ending
Jester is summoned to a beach, as Sumner congratulates him for a job well done. Jester then cannonballs into the water and thinks to himself, what happens if Garm comes back? He then glows blue and knows that whenever that happens, he'll be ready.

Gameplay
The Jester is a fighter that, while can go up close and personal, prefers to stay back and constantly fire, keeping the opponent at a safe distance while always making sure they don't run away. He also can apply good Pressure, dancing around the opponent and making them come out of their comfort zone. Jester also can gain a bit more AP than most fighters, but will have AP very slowly drain over time, to emulate how in the game, your health slowly goes down over time.
