🖤 Backstory: Smicker grew up with a troupe of 12 clowns, and traveled with them from. Place to place, performing as part of their circus called "Colorbang!" after coming to the city of Locale, Smicker met a girl naned Wendy that he adored more than the other patrons. They became close friends, but never moved into romantic territory. Wendy became sick with a rare form of cancer that mestatized before it was found. He stayed with her in the hospital, keeping her happy and hiding his pain at her illness until her death. Ultimately it wasn't her cancer that killed her, but the loss of her immune system that let a common germ ravage her body unchecked. Depressed and broken and with a new fear of sickness and germs, Smicker lost his magic. He is no longer a fit for the circus and left it a few days ago to be alone, staying in a sad motel, unsure of how to go on.

🖤 Clowns as a species: in this world, clowns are a genetically distinct species of human. Unlike real life, their colorful hair and skin is not makeup or fancy dress. It is their natural pigmentation. All clowns have an ability to conjure magic, as long as they have a happy heart. When a clown loses their happiness, their colors fade and their magic weakens.

🖤 Clown magic: Clown magic is mostly harmless and unmiraculous. They cannot conjure storms or heal wounds. Instead, they can conjure explosions of glitter, confetti or candy. They can spray bubbles and snow, fabricate balloons from thin air, conjure illusory fantasy butterflies, flowers, fairies, birds, mice and similar creatures. They can use ventriloquist magic, using a living person as their puppet or make them fart, and manifest some sort of butt. So long as their magic is entertaining, funny and colorful, clowns can do all sorts of things.

🖤 Smicker's magic (in the event he can ever conjure some.) Is never colorful, baloons, glitter, etc are always black, grey or white.
