Jules le Jongleur
Jules le Jongleur is an acrobat in the service of Tristan le Troubadour, accompanying his master on his Grail Quest on a hobby horse.[1] [3a]
He was trampled by Sir Laudyricus of Couronne at the Battle of Castle Reunart and after that he no longer rode alongside his master on his hobby horse. [3a]
If Jules is slain or leaves the battlefield, Tristan will no longer sings his chantons. The jester is however very hard to hit due to his amazing acrobatic prowess and samersaults. [1]
Cutting Wit
He is able to distract the opponents of his master as not only can he make wry comments or jeers but is also a remarkable mimic - able to simulate any creature in the known world.[1]
History
When Tristan began his quest for the grail, his loyal jongleur begged to be allowed to travel with him. [1]
Weapons and Equipment
Armed only with a slapstick, Jules assists Tristan in battle by distracting his opponents. [1]
