Gauntlet

The Jester is one of the eight character classes in Gauntlet: Dark Legacy. He is first introduced in the original Dark Legacy arcade in 1999 prior to the game's console release, and later appeared in the Dreamcast edition of Gauntlet: Legends.

Along with the Archer, he is a speed character, which makes his strength and armor reasonably low. He is slightly more skilled in magic than the Archer. His alter-ego is the Hyena. He hails from the Dream World as its mayor, and has absolutely no fear whatsoever about setting his highly explosive bombs on fire as a power up, and holding on to them. He spends his free time helping Freddy Krueger make witty one-liners. He is after nothing else but slaughter and a laugh.

Turbo Attack[]

  • Sonic Boom: The Jester takes out a pair of giant gloves and claps with them creating a devastating sonic boom that kills most enemies in range. It's a short-range turbo and requires only 1 bar of power to do.
  • Hammer Time: The Jester pulls out a joke hammer that shoots out a big boxing glove destroying everything in its path. It's a long-range turbo and requires 2 bars of power to do.

Combos[]

  • Cartwheel- The Jester lunges forward and revolves on his hands and feet, with limegreen lines representing motion as he moves.
  • Pirouette- The Jester gets on one leg and spins, kicking, which kills or knocks back all enemies within a tiny radius.
  • Oldest Trick In The Book- The Jester pulls a rope from nowhere and a heavy item falls on the enemies in front of him. (This attack varies depending on your character's color; Blue Jester drops a 2 ton weight, but Red drops a giant disembodied foot, Yellow drops oppression, and Green drops a wooden crate of glass.)
