I noticed just now that the forums have transferred, so I’m re-posting these updated concept classes here!
The general theme for this class is that it focuses on being positive, free, and always happy and moving forward despite the odds; most of the classes now focus on might, pride, revenge or faith - characteristics that are in my opinion unnervingly serious. Fighting the Prime Evils doesn’t always need to be stoic in nature - just look at Covetous Shen! In spite of this, the Court of Jesters mainly aims to realistically influence kingdoms in secret for the good of all.
In line with this idea of a fun-loving, demon fighting hero, you will notice several skills and references to popular culture, comics, movies, music, and other games - in my opinion a distinct quality of Blizzard and their games that makes adventuring a not so boring and straightforward chore. So enjoy my fellow Nephalem! It is with great pride that I present to you the Jester. Let me know what you think!
P.S. Can anyone draw a good concept sketch for my humble character class? I can’t draw to save my life. Thanks!

Character Class Concept
Jester
About 200 years ago, in the City of Duncraig, gypsies, entertainers, fortunetellers, and wanderers at the squalor of society gathered and formed the Court of Jesters. They sought to uplift the depravity and injustice the weak bear from politics and corruption. Stealing food for the masses, whispering into ears of kings, and the occasional assassination of undesirables were part of their covert activities. Over time, this hodgepodge of liberals became more organized and spread to many cities and settlements, using their tricks of the trade as masks to their vendetta. But in the midst of their campaign, the most powerful Jesters - The Faceless Ones - have sensed a more sinister threat, working similarly in the shadows towards darker goals. Though this Evil was defeated and peace was restored, they foretold that a celestial event would herald its return. Hence the fateful day of the Falling Star came, and from their elite ranks a capable yet indulgent novitiate was sent to investigate in New Tristram.
