*Clown Techniques
*Fool/Harlequin/Jester/Joker/Prankster Arts/Techniques
==Capabilities==
The user can utilize the Clown Arts, a specialized system of techniques based around buffoonish power. Clowns occupy a unique space in the collective unconscious. These figures run the gamut concerning both types and intentions. From circus performers to jesters, mimes to rodeo wranglers, these individuals have always possessed unique aspects that give them special power over others. Traditionally, they are figures of entertainment, providing levity and comfort to spectators. They can represent certain concepts like chaos or emotions. There have even been instances of foolish characters acting as religious figures, wielding mystic power granted to them by divine forces. Their inherent skill and/or power to evoke strong feelings or even use supernatural might give clowns capabilities idiosyncratic to the profession. As there is an art to being a joker, there are also techniques one can learn to wield their preternatural abilities.
Learning to play the fool can grant specialized techniques. Physically, one can gain enhanced levels of agility, flexibility and even durability (pretty handy for pratfalls). Users can handle props associated with the craft as weapons (juggling balls, balloons or even blades like swords or knives). Individuals can even demonstrate abilities based on their characters such as circus clowns causing uncontrollable laughter to disarm their opponents or mimes being able manifest invisible constructs based on their performance. Whether one’s inherent origins are magical, divine or even demonic, learning the art of the clown enables one access to entertaining yet incredibly potent power.
