A jester is an entertainer that a monarch or nobleman would employ to entertain him and his guests. These court jesters thrived in the Medieval and Renaissance eras. These sprightly entertainers wore hats featuring floppy, pointed protrusions, with a bell hanging from the tip of each protrusion. They also donned motley clothing (the traditional costume of the jester and Harlequin – a patchwork made up of a variety of bright colours; iconically arranged in a check pattern). Jesters were often adept at many forms of entertainment, including singing, music, storytelling, acrobatics, juggling, comedy, and magic. The jester is also depicted as The Fool, one of the 78 cards in a Tarot deck, which itself is similar in appearance to the Joker playing card.
Strangely, jester-type entities commonly appear in the DMT experience. In DMT: The Spirit Molecule, many participants reported encountering “clowns”, “jesters”, “jokers”, and “imps” during their experiences with the substance. Many users report also describe these types of entities as ‘tricksters’. These entities are often engaged in elaborate and mind-boggling performances and tricks. The environment they inhabit can also reflect their entertaining nature, with many users finding themselves in strange dimensions that resemble a circus, carnival, or casino. In fact, Terence McKenna said that “the archetype of DMT is the circus”.

In most of these rounds (unless specified), Geralt appears just east of Riverrun, to provide a nice and central starting location. We'll use Geralt from the show, so that we have a solid basis for his abilities.
Round 1: Geralt has to live a day-to-day life in Westeros. He has no particular objectives, no prior knowledge, he is just dumped in the world at the very start of the series and left to his own devices. What happens?
Round 2: Cersei Lannister is alerted about a newcomer to the lands who has a history of interfering with politics and killing important people. She isn't bloodlusted, but she will try to remove Geralt however possible, seeing him as a possible threat. How does Geralt do?
Round 2.5: Same as above, but Cersei is bloodlusted.
Round 3: Geralt instead appears at the Wall, just after the Great Ranging. He is immediately enlisted and told to help fight against the Wildlings and White Walkers. Can he change the events that happen later on?
Round 4: Geralt is bloodlusted, and has to kill/cause the deaths of the entire Lannister family on his own. Consider the politics of the world on pause for a bit, so that they don't kill each other. Can he pull it off?
Seriously, best villain of the Sarah Jane adventures, and possibly one of the better ones in Nu Who. It's such a shame he was ultimately nothing more than a minor character in a spin-off show.
I've realized our fear is caused by the trickster archetype. It's causing us to fear anything and everything, each other. The trickster archetype is fascinating because it is common throughout many cultures, in native american, indo-european, african, etc. The trickster always deceived both humans and gods causing them to fight. I think many of our problems are caused by the trickster in whichever form it takes. It plays with us, and manipulates us to help us learn and laugh a little. How have you found the trickster in your experiences?
The way Areelu gets increasingly frustrated with my inability to obey the laws of reality or common sense.

I've seen a lot of people say he's a sucky killer, but I absolutely hate playing against him. I feel like I have somewhat of a chance against other killers, and i don't mind playing against killers who have projectiles like Huntress or Clown, but you have a chance against them because their projectiles slow them down somewhat. With The Trickster he's not slowed down and has seemingly an infinite amount of knives. (I know he doesn't but as a survivor that's how it feels lol)
I've seen a lot of people say just run around obstacles or go through windows but even then i'm still getting hit. I'm sure a lot of people disagree with me, and to each their own, but it does make me nervous posting about anything dbd since all the posts i see are survivor mains and killer mains hating on eachother. I don't know that i'd go as far as saying The Trickster is OP, but i feel like it definitely takes away from the point of being able to run from the killer and being able to get away.
Again, im sure a lot of people disagree, and i've only just recently started playing killer more so i could be ignorant to how the gameplay is from that side, but i don't think there's a killer i hate more than The Trickster lol. Maybe i'm also biased since i played against him basically back to back and lost like 3 pips when i was one away from ranking up.
No hate to any Trickster or killer mains, I genuinely think you're all amazing at playing this killer since i always seem to die to him, it's all fun and games in the end <3
(Update: I've gotten slightly better at being able to dodge his knives in an open area, but I've only been playing for about half a year so I'd love some tips on how to play against him or any other killers better if anyone has any <3)
So I think I just figured out altar a deity I have worked with for a weak and a half is a "trickster" and I was wondering if that is a real thing or just something tossed around on tiktok and such.
Edit: I ment week not year sorry
GGG, we've been through this. Nobody likes pendulum swinging effect that occurs half of the time and nothing the other half. You got zero control over when the effect occurs during regular gameplay, and especially for something defensive in nature, it's even worse because you'll relying it for survive, whereas with damage like the old Elementalist node, it just makes you kill a bit slower. You recognized this and changed it with Heart of Destruction, why do it again?
Half the time taking no dot damage, is this truly worthy of an ascendancy node? Also you NEED to take it to access to Escape Artist, unless it's changed and wasn't in patch note. It's really not making me excited to try out Trickster this league.
Fellow tricksters mains help me please.
