💚°|Harlequin|°💚

The skin is reddish in color.
The hair is short and red, but only individual strands are visible in the front.
The face is hidden by a plague doctor mask: it has a beak, and the lenses glow blue. An interesting detail: when the Doctor experiences strong emotions (especially at the sight of blood or during moments of sadistic inclinations), the lenses begin to glow red.
His attire consists of a dark red and black, floor-length cape with a hood and a blue lining. Beneath it, he wears a black and red cloak with two rows of three gold buttons and a red sash around his waist. He also wears crimson opera gloves with "claws" (likely made of waterproof material). His legs and feet are never shown.

Height: 183 cm, posture is straight, movements are precise, as if measured down to the millimeter.
The hair is short, dark blue, and neatly combed back.
The face is almost completely hidden by a mask: it's high-contrast, black and white, divided down the center. The left side is white with black details, the right is black with white details. The eye slits are lowered, and black streaks seem to flow down the left side—like tears. The mask can change expressions, from a slight crescent smile to a creepy, sharp-toothed grin.
On his head is a dark blue top hat with a wide golden ribbon.
The suit is a dark blue single-breasted tailcoat with an unusual detail: it splits into four tails. The lapels are triangular, gold, with blue piping; the buttons are also gold, and there is a gold belt.
Shirt and tie - under the tailcoat, a black button-down shirt and a gold tie with a white and blue teardrop-shaped brooch pinned to it.
The sleeves are dark blue, with long gold cuffs, along the width of which there are two blue stripes.
The gloves are white, but with expressive “claws”.
The bottom is dark blue trousers to match the tailcoat.
Shoes: black calf-length boots with a slightly raised heel and a gold sole.

At 192 cm tall, he is the tallest in the circus.
Hair - long, blue-violet, reaches to the waist.
The mask is white, with theatrically sharp features. A purple diamond is depicted over the left eye, and an upside-down purple heart over the right. Two thin purple lines run from the mouth down to the chin, giving the smile a nutcracker-like yet sinister look. The mask itself rises slightly above the head, creating the illusion of horns. Jester actually has real, solid white horns—he's the only one in the circus with such.
The eyes are bright purple (magenta), always narrow and slit-shaped.
The headdress is a purple-and-black jester's cap with four "liripas" (long ends). At each end is a bell.
The suit combines purple, black, and gold (the gold emphasizes his status). The outfit features asymmetrical patterns and numerous dangling bells. The details are intricate: for example, the sleeves feature purple puffy cuffs with black diamonds and gold trim, the hips feature diamond-shaped shoulder pads, and the back and sides of the garment split into two long, almond-shaped "tails."
The gloves are black, opera-style, and clawed. The claws aren't completely hidden; their shape shows through the fabric, clearly demonstrating that behind the theatrical appearance lies a monster.
Shoes: black knee-length boots with curved, pointed toes (resembling poulaines).

Hair. Long, white or silver, falling from under the cap.
The mask is white, with black vertical slits for the eyes. The pupils are golden-yellow. There's a black teardrop-shaped mark under the left eye. The mouth on the mask usually depicts a wide grin with sharp white teeth, but Pierrot is capable of changing his expression: the mouth can frown, stretch into a more sinister smile, reveal a long tongue, or even temporarily disappear.
A jester's cap, red and black checked. It has three ends, each with a bell, and a yellow star at the top of each end.
Collar. Black, with frills; yellow on the inside. Two triangular strips of fabric (black with yellow trim) hang from the collar, each also having a bell.
Suit. The dominant colors are red and black: red predominates in the upper part, black in the lower part. There may be a yellow belt-like detail at the waist. The sleeves are baggy, with black vertical slits and cuffs.
Gloves. Black, reaching about halfway up the forearms. Sharp claws are hidden beneath them. Interestingly, the sleeves and gloves are connected by a yellow stripe: red "diamonds" on the left stripe, black ones on the right.
Pants. Black, baggy, knee-length. At the very bottom are red, elongated "diamonds."
Shoes. Long, black, knee-length jester's boots. The top (where the pants meet the boots) is trimmed in red, and the laces are yellow.

Hair. He has curly black hair that reaches his cheeks. His signature feature is two strands on the left side of his forehead that curl inward, forming a heart shape.
Face and Mask. The face is usually hidden by a white mask with upward-curved eye holes. The mask features a sinister, sharp-toothed grin. The expression is not fixed: the smile can widen, narrow, turn into a grimace, or even disappear. The grin itself is a hole through which the wearer's teeth are visible. On the left side of the mask is a green diamond passing through the eye, and on the right is a green triangle pointing downward under the eye. When the mask is removed, the eyes and the inside of the mouth (presumably the tongue) glow a poisonous green. The eyes themselves usually appear as slits or thin rings.
Costume. Harlequin wears a green and black jester's hood with two liripipes (long "tails") that reach the top of his head and end in bells. The liripipes vary in design: on the left, they are mostly green with a black heart and a row of black hearts; on the right, they are half black, half green, with a heart that changes color depending on which side you choose.
Cloak. A black cloak with a gold lining, accents, and interior. It fastens at the neck with a gold strip of fabric. An upside-down heart is depicted on the left side of the cloak, and a regular heart on the right.
Tunic. Green, with two vertical black stripes along the left side of the torso. It has a gold insert in the center, edged with black stripes, and a gold lining. The sleeves are different: the left is completely black with a green stripe, the right is green with a row of black hearts.
Gloves. The left glove has a green overlay with black fingers and a black heart on the back of the hand, while the right glove has a black overlay with green fingers and a green heart. Both gloves have claws.
Pants and shoes. Loose black pants with gold hearts on the center front of the thighs. Knee-high boots with flat soles: left - green with a black collar, black laces, and a black sole, right - black with a green collar, green

Main character traits
Clinical detachment. He speaks calmly, measuredly, spouts jargon, and seems completely oblivious to others' pain—for him, it's all a "procedure," and people are just medical cases.
Obsession with "perfection." The doctor sincerely believes that the artists' deformities are defects that need to be corrected. His "treatment" actually consists of extreme surgeries and experiments, and he is willing to impose them by force, justifying it with concern.
Messiah complex. He's convinced that only he can "save" artists from their anomalies, and he perceives any protests as a lack of understanding or resistance to "science."
A craving for control. He values ​​order: sterility, clear protocols, the arrangement of instruments. This need to control extends to the artists' lives—he wants to dictate how they should look and function.
Latent sadism. Behind the façade of professionalism lies the pleasure of exerting power over the bodies of others. It's not the chaos itself that frightens him, but the fact that he can't "bring order" to it.
Manipulative. The doctor knows how to sound persuasive and reassuring to lull the patient's guard, and then subtly impose his conditions—for example, slipping a "treatment contract" or administering an injection that renders the patient unable to resist.

Main character traits
Calm and collected, he rarely loses his composure: even in tense situations, he remains level-headed, and this is what makes him especially frightening.
A calculating strategist, Jester plans everything: from the circus's travel routes to the rules for its participants. He learns quickly, understands psychology, and is excellent at calculating consequences.
Powerful. He calls himself the ruler of the circus and truly controls everything—from finances to who can perform and when.
A misanthrope. He treats people with condescension, almost like they're elements of a show: polite but distant, as if they were nothing more than pieces in a game.
Enigmatic. His motives are not obvious: he knows a lot about the circus's secrets, but he shares information sparingly, leaving room for interpretation.
Sarcastic. Maintains a dry sense of humor and ironic intonations even in the darkest moments.
Observant. Notices the smallest details and uses these observations to keep the situation under control.
Dangerous without being overtly aggressive. He doesn't need to shout or fight to inspire fear: his authority and ability to anticipate others' moves are sufficient.

Main character traits
Obsession with rules. He follows instructions with a frightening precision: for him, a rule isn't a recommendation, but a law that can't be broken. Even if someone higher in status deviates from the norm, the Ticket Taker can resist it—as in the lore incident involving an ice cream cone shaped like his face.
Pedantry and perfectionism. Order is important to him in everything: from cleanliness to his schedule. He plans his day down to the last detail and cannot tolerate chaos.
Outward calm and inner sternness. He speaks quietly, reservedly, almost politely, but behind this gentleness lies a readiness to act decisively and even ruthlessly. From a collected gentleman, he can instantly transform into a strict adherent to protocol.
Observation. He notices everything: a facial expression, a tremor in a voice, the slightest deviation from the norm. This makes him an excellent "threat detector": he quickly recognizes when someone is dangerous or acting strangely.
Paradoxical "normality." In the frenetic surroundings of the circus, he seems like the most "ordinary" person—and that only makes him more unsettling. His rationality seems like another form of strangeness.

Obsession and possessiveness. Pierrot is pathologically attached to the protagonist and strives to protect him to the point that his care becomes control. His love is compared to a collector's attitude toward a fragile object: he wants to keep the object of his affection "perfect and unchanging."
The tragic basis of his behavior. His obsession is rooted in a profound trauma—the death of Columbine, his first love. Because of this, he is determined never to lose anyone again and is willing to go to extreme lengths to protect those he holds dear.
Silence as a tool of tension. Pierrot deliberately speaks almost nothing in public: his silence forces those around him to tensely read his every gesture. At the same time, he speaks only to the protagonist—and this makes his rare words especially meaningful and even frightening.
Duality: polite and dangerous. On the outside, he appears courteous and gentle, easily embarrassed, but inside, he is extremely tough. If someone threatens those important to him (especially Harlequin), he acts decisively and ruthlessly.
A strong devotion to authority. He deeply respects Jester (the Jester) and relies heavily on him, viewing him as the circus's primary guarantor of order.
A complex relationship with Harlequin. Pierrot and Harlequin have a bitter feud, rooted in the past and exacerbated by rivalry. For Pierrot, Harlequin is a direct threat, so he is constantly on guard and ready for confrontation.
Hidden vulnerability. Despite his strength and danger, Pierrot is capable of touching, almost naive displays of affection: for example, he gives homemade gifts, is embarrassed by simple gestures of attention, and yet remains the physically strongest member of the troupe.

A trickster and provocateur. He loves to tease others, especially Pierrot: he deliberately provokes him and watches his reaction with interest. He can take risks simply to see how people will react.
Charismatic and theatrical. He carries himself very effectively, loves being the center of attention, and looks presentable. Even off-stage, he maintains a playful charm and an effective delivery.
Manipulative and seductive. He feels comfortable in the role of seducer and can be quite bold and straightforward. However, he's not accustomed to tenderness: hugs or displays of affection surprise and even embarrass him.
Carefree but dangerous. He seems frivolous and doesn't care what others think, but he also has a sadistic streak, and his impulsiveness makes him unpredictable.
Competitive. He has a long-standing rivalry with Pierrot (including over Columbine), and he readily plays on this tension, including by trying to "pull" the attention of those who interest Pierrot.
He's the youngest member of the circus, but he doesn't feel left out. On the contrary, he enjoys teasing the taller, more authoritative members of the troupe.
