The Clown acted according to his nature as a magical puppet clown; he felt compelled to act out the appropriate comical reaction to a given setup, which was a way of beating him in a fight. Conversely, he used chaotic cartoon tactics when throwing hands, such as extending boxing gloves, squirting flowers, and enormous mallets plucked out of nowhere.

The Clown Emperor was inherently capable of teleportation, including across universes. While wielding [[Madame Tarsa's cane|his mother's cane]], he also displayed the ability to create ephemeral, smaller duplicates of himself, all controlled by his mind. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Time of the Toymaker (novel)|The Time of the Toymaker]]'') | The Clown Emperor was inherently capable of teleportation, including across universes, but only to places he'd gone before. While wielding [[Madame Tarsa's cane|his mother's cane]], he also displayed the ability to create ephemeral, smaller duplicates of himself, all controlled by his mind. Being made of magically-animated rubber, he was more physically resilient than a human being. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Time of the Toymaker (novel)|The Time of the Toymaker]]'') | ||

[[Madame Tarsa]] was the one who began to craft the Clown in December 2020, but she was not done animating him when she was attacked by [[Sebastian Steer]], who magically froze her, stole the toy, took it back to his [[Imperial Castle]] in the [[Jynx Dimension]] and then attempted to study the toy and finish its enchantment himself to try and learn the [[Power of Creation]]. Not managing to crack the true secret, he instead used part of his own soul to “fill the gaps”. Coming to life, the Clown realised that he had some of Steer's magical powers, including a limited ability to teleport — exclusively to places he'd been before. In his disoriented state, he teleported back to the [[Workshop of Madame Tarsa]], where he found and stole [[Madame Tarsa's cane]], which greatly boosted his own magical abilities.

=== At the Interdimensional Black Market === | === At the Interdimensional Black Market === | ||
Arriving at the [[Interdimensional Black Market]], the Clown wasted no time in starting a fight. While dueling the sword-wielding [[Queen of the Black Market]] with his mother's staff, he created an army of duplicates which fought back against the Queen's [[Wraith]]s. The battle was largely an even match, and dragged on, with the salespeople and patrons of the Black Market gathering in a circle to watch the unfolding conflict. The stalemate was broken by the appearance of [[Sherlock Holmes#In the Prime Universe|Sherlock Holmes]] and [[Pythagoras-858]], with the former walking into the melee and tripping the Clown at a key moment. Feeling compelled to react by acting out the pratfall, the Clown lost the fight, and was forced to teleport away using the Cane after vanishing his duplicates.

Heading to [[Shenanig]], the Clown ended up in [[Darkborough]] at night. He bumped into [[Doctor Curious]] and asked him for directions to the [[Imperial Castle]], playing a prank on the mad scientist while he was at it. After entering the Castle, he used the power of Madame Tarsa's cane to tie up [[Sebastian Steer|Emperor Steer]] and [[Barnabus Raffleby|Chamberlain Raffleby]] with magical, unbreakable neon-pink ropes, and stuffed both of them in a broom closet before briefly taking the throne for himself.

However, [[Pythagoras-858]], [[Sherlock Holmes#In the Prime Universe|Sherlock Holmes]] and [[Wendy VII]], having tracked him down, convinced him that he wouldn't be happy trying to live like his “father” Steer, and should instead find his “mother”. Abandoning his cape and top hat, he returned to the Workshop once more, where he returned the cane to Tarsa, who accepted him as her son. He then got to work helping her fulfill the orders of toys in time for Christmas. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Time of the Toymaker (novel)|The Time of the Toymaker]]'') | ||
