Editing Inferno (section)

===The Jester===
Devotees of selfish pleasures and rejecters of the need to help others, Jesters are damned to be pursued by hellhounds through the twisted Forest of Suicides on the Second Round of the Seventh Circle. Trapped forever in a mockingly grinning mask and jangling bells, Jesters embody the sin of folly.

The Emblems of a Jester are its leering '''Mask''' and discordantly jangling '''Jester Bells''', as well as the '''Touch of Madness''' that taints the very air around them.

Bards who follow the College of Jest bring discordance, strife and madness into the minds of those who dare to oppose them. They can evoke an '''Aura of Chaos''' from 3rd level, sacrificing their own ability to concentrate to ruin the efforts of their foes, and likewise use a '''Reflection of Pain''' to savage the minds of those who dare to strike a blow against them. From 6th level, their hideous laughter is empowered by a '''Hideous Echo''', and from 14th level, none can touch a Jester without suffering a wound in kind, an ability dubbed '''Do You Wanna Know How I Got These Scars?'''

When a Jester uses Embracing the Sin, they can sacrifice 2 Hope to regain all expended uses of Bardic Inspiration.
