Board Thread:Role Ideas (Neutral)/@comment-37468018-20181111012323

Name: Joker

Alignment: Neutral (Killing)

Game Information/Background: Once a homeless boy on the street, he lay over the bridge connecting his town and Salem. He was sick of living, tired of being beaten and having his possessions stolen, and when he had none, he'd be beaten more. He stood shakily on the top, bracing himself for the moments to come before he heard

"Alakazam!"

He turned to see a Magician impressing the boys who bullied him. They gasped and knelt before him, all impressed. He sprinted to the Magician and begged to learn his trick. Aching for respect and recognition, he wanted to be in control. It took hours, but finally, the Magician reluctantly cracked. He asked the boy to choose a card, he got the five of hearts. The Magician smiled and shuffled it out of the deck. Then, miraculously, with a quick shuffle, the card was in his hands. The Magician explained that the choice the boy made was the way he knew.

The boy did the trick for himself and was amazed at the results, the eight of hearts was right in front of him. The boy wasted no time, practicing his trick, over and over, time after time. He would master this trick if it was the last thing he did. Every flip of the card, every shuffle, every time he whispered "Alakazam" he found it all the more magical. He went to a tavern to show his skill, and the Manager was not very happy. He said that magic was a waste of time and that no one should bother learning it. The boy convinced the man that the crowd would be amazed.

He stood on the stage and performed the trick, getting the 3 of Diamonds. He desperately flipped the cards through his fingers, and shouted "Alakazam!" When he was finished. The crowd sat silently. The boy was a little flustered. He heard a man in the front mutter "what a waste of time,". The people in the bar started to leave.

The Manager was furious, yelling at the boy over and over. The boy started to shout back and said that if the trick didn't amaze him, the boy would never see the man again. He did the trick and got the jack of clubs. The Manager stared at the card for just a moment before going right back to screaming. The boy struck the man across the face and took out a gun. He shot him repeatedly. Then he crushed his face so hard no one could tell the Manager was a human. He spat on the corpse and whispered "Alakazam,"

As soon as the boy walked outside, he saw the three boys who bullied him. They all grinned and immediately started mocking him about his performance, saying he was a fraud and a boring bad Magician. He asked if they would like to see him do the trick again. They found this funny, and humored the boy before they took out brass knuckles. They said if it didn't impress them then the boy would really know what a beating was like. When the boy did the trick this time, the card was the Ace of Spades. The boy took out the gone and shot all of them. They didn't even have time to react. He laughed. Looking at their corpses gave him joy. He knew he was on the run now. He cackled as he walked the bridge to Salem, ready to show his trick to all. He did the trick for himself one more time, but this time he got the Joker. He laughed and laughed, and then shouted as loud as he could
