Achilles the Creepy Jester

A traveling jester encountered by the party on the road to Weber-Hollows. Real name Achilles, revealed in session 2026-05-01.

Lilith paid him for one of his cards. In her words: “I have one that I got from this weird jester that we met on the way here. He was actually really creepy and weird, but I paid him.” The card was later identified as a legendary item of divine nature.

Canon Details

  • Achilles has no nuts. Confirmed canon, per Dustin in session 2026-05-01.
  • Currently in scene with Azalea (Lexy’s character) and Nora Barrows — circumstances of that pairing TBD.

Open Threads

  • Where did he come from? Where does he go between encounters?
  • He had at least one legendary card to trade. Are there more, and is he still on the road?
  • His “creepy and weird” energy combined with possessing a fate-tier divine artifact is suspicious. Possible cult agent, divine messenger, or something stranger.
