Appearance:

Imagine a medieval court jester: bright red fabric bodysuit, little bells at the multiple tips of his fancy hat and all. Now imagine he's depressed, drunk, and slightly chubby, on top of being pretty damn ugly too (especially for a Half-Elf). He's short, got green eyes and short black hair, but you rarely see those from underneeth his fancy fool's hat.

Backstory:

This character is a former court jester who used to entertain the Eldoran leadership. The main idea here is that he witnessed the arrogance and incompetence that led to the settlement's eventual downfall. The jester could clearly enough see the writing on the wall, but who would pay heed to a jester's warning? Now the jester is a refugee, entertaining the populace of a foreign land with stories of a distant, desolate court and cheap tricks while drinking his sorrows away.

Behind the veneer of mockery and the inhibriation, he remians essentailly patriotic and good natured. Believing the sins of rulers leading to disaster for their subordinates to be a horrific injustice and a wrong he ought to strive to right. He's also determined to take a more active role in the goings on of his new home and has thus taken up adventuring. If the mighty of this world are too foolish to provide stability and wealth to their subjects, a fool will have to step in and do their job for them.

In-Game Activities:

As a result of the disasterous management of Eldora, Flop moved to Orum mid-March 2021, mere days before Eldora itself was sacked by Orcish raiders. He then mostly spent his time drinking booze and puting on puppet shows and standup comedy performances for the locals in the streets.

Through the power of Bard bullshit, also known as Charisma and DM favouritism, Flop acquiered a large house in Orum. This made him declare one of his sockpuppets to be the new Vicount von Orum and himself to be the vicount's "Master of Pants". The jester thus claims it to be his sworn knightly duty to protect any and all Orumite pants from threats within and without. After a near-death experiance, in a bandit camp in the crags south of Orum, Flop decided he needed otherworldly support in his efforts to mould this widerness into something more civilized. He has decided to henceforth follow the path of the Paladin! Let Flop's soul-searching AA adventure begin!

He also made a deal with the oligarchic, unofficial rulers of Orum, the Hunley Family, to open an Alchemy shop in town. They would provide the initial capital and Flop his newly acquiered Alecemical skills as well as the considerable respect that the Vicount von Orum's chosen champion's name evokes in the citizens of the town.
