The Parasite's Host

Concept: Soul eaten Barbarian

The Clockwork Fool

During the battle of the furious lion sweeps the sable field a factory was built to resupply the front with fresh troops. An endless robotic army marched to its doom that day on the bough of a diamond oak. However an equally vast array of robots were built wrong. Dumped upon an ever growing scrapheap, this is how The Clockwork Fool first came to awareness.
Delightful Princess was having an adventure that day, smashing the trees with one well manicured finger. Little did she suspect that a large pile of bronze would come crashing down upon her foot. Her tears were as inevitable as a typhoon and many new rivers were created from her tears. Indeed even the exalt who fought, unmercifully cutting down the robotic comrades might have been momentarily distracted by the flooding were it not for The Fool.
With a clank and jape and a ungainly fall, he soon distracted Princess from the pile bronze (which was quickly rearranging itself into a perfect cube out of guilt). Indeed Delightful Princess was so taken with him that she insisted on taking him back to amuse her subjects.

Notes

I'm currently counting the current human host of the parasite as part of the retinue.
The Clockwork Fool is likely to be an Entertainer.
