Ridley
After six successful years in The Calliope Wonderfair and Circus, Ridley left their career as an acrobat to take on the position of the Draywood monarchy’s entertainer and jester. Though they’re mostly known for the shows they put on for the royal family, they recently gained heroic status after stopping an attack on King Thomas Cain II’s life. They’ve since remained nothing more than a comedic commentator, but the city won’t soon forget their bravery.

"There they are, Calliope's Believe It or Not! As this child stands here before you all, higher than the treetops, stiller than a statue, braver than a bear-- I ask of you all, do you think they can do it?! Or, will your inner cynic take over and let them fall to an untimely demise? The choice is yours, dear audience!"
Career
Ridley began their career as a performer in the year 2070 at the age of ten, joining the circus in the fall of that year. Upon their initial introduction to the show, they were at first a big selling point for younger viewers, but quickly grew in popularity among those that returned each year as they noted their routines getting more complicated with each passing year, unlike those whose tricks tended to remain the same. However, despite their success with The Calliope Wonderfair and Circus, this did not stop them from taking a direct offer from King Thomas Cain II at the age of sixteen.
Their work as Draywood's official court Jester mostly entails performing for royal family upon request, however they've also taken center stage at various official events and several impromptu performances scattered around the city state that tend to time up nicely with clean up efforts following villainous attacks.
Apart from their performance duties, Ridley has recently taken up a closer role to the king, occasionally acting as a bodyguard following their successful attempt at stopping Princess Disaster from taking the king's life.
Personal Life
Not much is known about Ridley's personal life, likely a product of their penchant for lying and joking about things both important and frivolous. However, we do know that their parents passed away when they were ten years old and that this is when they decided to run off and join the circus. They have not mentioned any other family or friends.
