Jesters are a diverse group categorizing a specie of Cognitae with shared characteristics. There exist a wide array of jesters, with such variety it's quite challenging to categorize them.

One thing all jesters have in common is their colorful skin markings, commonly present around the eyes.

==== Life cycle ====
Jesters begin their life in an egg. It's care is shared between parents, taking turns carrying it. This stage usually only take a few weeks to months, after which the egg hatches into the larval stage of Jesters: the Doll.

The Doll stage is named as such due to the uncanny appearance of newly hatched jesters; with beady eyes and simplistic anatomy, they heavily resemble an inanimate child's toy. They start off only a couple inches tall, and grow at a very unpredictable rate.

A matured Doll is named a Puppet. It distinguished itself from the doll stage by the Jester's physical and mental capabilities reaching maturity. They usually stand at just a few feet tall. From that point on, Jesters have the ability to grow into to main types of jesters; some individuals even able to take both forms, shifting between them.

The first type, named a Carrel, resemble in appearance an average Wonder or Diogenid, with a bipedal demeanor, thumbed hands, and smooth skin. Carrels usually have voluptuous hair, colorful skin marking, and thin tail. Other common Carrel traits include horns, additional mouths and/or disproportionate limbs.

The second type, named Folly, have much less cohesion in their form. The only way to tell a Folly from another type of creature is by the characteristic jester markings.

Knifex: Yoinked from HORIZON taxonomy!

=== Platonids ===
Platonids are what seem to be the default specie: they seem to originate from the same primitive ancestor. They are bipedals, with mostly hairless skin, and naturally red & warm blooded. They don't naturally have appendages such as tails, claws, horns or wings, but can have a wide variety of skin, eye and hair color.

=== Wonders ===
Wonders share a lot of similarities with platonids; bipedal with hairless skin; but posses additional traits that distinguishes them from platonids. They may sometimes be indistinguishably from Wonders on the surface, but their physiology vastly differs.

=== Diogenids ===
While no two beastars are the same, they can generally be grouped in one of the following categories:

==== Kemomi ====
Mostly humanoid, only displays few animal traits; usually ears, tail, eyes, wings, teeth and/or horns/antlers

==== Hybrid ====
Displays animal traits over 40% of the body (excluding head). The distinction between the animalistic part and humanoid parts is clear.

==== Prosopanthro ====
Mostly humanoid in shape, body is usually covered in fur. Some features are slightly altered, but still distincly humanoid.

==== Cruranthro ====
Head shape is no longer humanoid. Body is more animalistic, but still plantigrade. Usually doesn't have humanoid hair

==== Anthrodone ====
Mostly animalistic, Digitigrade but still able to stand: there is a clear distinction between arms/hands and legs/feet. Hands usually have opposable thumbs or at least high manipulation capacities

==== Teddy ====
Usually has the capacity to both stand and be polypedal. Little to no distinctions between hands and legs.

==== Zooform ====
Looks like an non cognitae animal.
