Author's Note

The trickster character type is one of my favourites for its humour and the diversity of it's potential relationships with the main characters of a story.
However, it is similar in it's narrative roles and identity to those of the sentry, in that they are used often, with important but brief parts and very little character development due to an absence of recognisable form.
With this concept I tried to give the trickster class a clear and definable form that could be developed and followed, and that would also be recognisable as a trickster class by its equipment and character as much as it's skills.
The form of the spells and skills is entirely in the hands of any writer who takes some inspiration from my models.
