Class/CR:
Chaotic Neutral Prankster (CR 1)
Age:
Unknown (claims to be “nine centuries of fey nobility,” but is almost certainly
lying)
Gender:
Male (probably)
Occupation/Role:
Wandering prankster, street nuisance, unreliable informant
Faction/Allegiance:
None—claims allegiance to the “Glitterfang Sylvan Wish-Wisps of the Ninth
Blooming Court” (which almost certainly doesn’t exist)
Physical Description
Height/Build:
Tiny (about 2 feet tall), wiry frame with quick darting movements
Eye
Color: Yellow-orange with perpetual mischief
Skin/Fur/Features:
Typical red-skinned imp, though often dusted with glitter and glue from recent
“projects”
Distinguishing
Marks: Crooked blonde wig, sparkly pink “wand” (a stick with a
crystal shard glued on), squeaky glitter shoes, mismatched bits of costume
jewelry

trinkets, occasional feather boas or pilfered noble accessories
Personality
Key
Traits: Attention-seeking, hyperactive, mischief-obsessed,
theatrical
Mannerisms:
Narrates pranks aloud; slips between high-pitched faux-fey voice and deep
infernal growl; bursts into uncontrollable giggling fits when pleased with
himself
Beliefs/Motivations:
Chaos is joy; humiliation is an art form; a well-timed prank can topple kings
(or at least ruin their day)
Flaws/Weaknesses:
Can’t resist a good prank opportunity; easily distracted; tends to overshare
when laughing
Quirks:
Will argue vehemently that he’s a “Sylvan Prank Spirit” and not
a fiend—even under magical scrutiny
Skills and Abilities
Strengths:
· Invisibility at will (broken by laughing or being startled)
· Skilled at distraction and physical comedy
·
Knowledge of secrets all over Lygos due to constant spying
Weaknesses:
· Physically fragile; avoids direct combat
·
Compulsively reveals information if laughing hard enough
Notable
Abilities/Equipment:
· Minor Prankcraft (1/short rest): Minor Illusion, Mage Hand, or Grease as innate magic
· False Fey Aura: Detect Magic and similar spells often register him as fey unless a DC 13 Arcana check is passed
Background
Origin:
Unknown—no summoning circle or spellcaster claims him; seems to have “slipped”
into Lygos from elsewhere
History:
Quickly became infamous in all social circles, from dockworkers to nobility,
for public embarrassments, unpredictable appearances, and elaborate prank
setups
Current
Role in Lygos: Unofficial “wild card” in city life; turns up
anywhere, from funerals to court hearings, with disruptive results
Connections
Allies:
None formal, though tavern patrons sometimes encourage his antics; street
urchins adore him for the chaos he causes
Rivals/Enemies:
City Watch (constant nuisance); humorless politicians; anyone recently pranked
Ties
to Other Characters: Has likely disrupted speeches by Klarion Faelrune, rearranged Garric Stonewright’s blueprints, and glued Boddin Pindlefizz’s quills to his desk
Plot Hooks
Potential
Role in the Story:
· Party needs critical info: must win his trust or make him laugh
· A prank war escalates into city-wide chaos, and the party must contain him
·
Becomes an unlikely ally by pranking a dangerous foe at the
perfect moment
Secrets/Hidden
Agendas: Knows an alarming amount about noble scandals,
criminal hideouts, and city infrastructure—but never gives it away directly
Ways
to Involve Them:
· Use him as a comedic informant who trades gossip for help with pranks
· Involve him in a subplot where his “fake” fey identity might actually be hiding a true magical oddity
· Make him a quest complication—his antics risk blowing the party’s cover
