Esther Chao - Milestone 5

Jester Props
Jester clothing: Striped green and yellow "like a frog," adorned with donkey ears. 

Jester Florin
Called "Prince Donkey Ears" and "Little Mimus," because he looks like an exact, but smaller copy of Mimus in his costume. Born and raised with a silver spoon in his mouth, Florin is often disgusted at the petty jester's tricks and the fact that they have to live in the stable with the animals, and act like them too.
Mimus
Revels in being a jester. He calls tricks, flips, tongue-twisters, and ballads part of the "Jester's Art." He's a master at sarcasm and satire, is witty and clever, and not at all the fool people take him for.

Esther Chao - Milestone 4

Count Victor (of Moltovia)

-Described in the book as having thin, "hawk-like features" and a hooked nose.
-He is a very young Count, who in the book first appears disguised as a traveling monk in order to get into Bellingar (the King of Vinland's) castle, because King Theodo rejects all audiences with emissaries from Moltovia. He then attempts to negotiate to buy Prince Florin and King Philip's freedom (his offer is rejected).


Prince Florin (of Moltovia)

-The 12-13 year-old prince of Moltovia
-He was carefree and happy training with his friends in the Royal School of Knighthood, and was foolishly all too eager to rush to the court of Bellingar at the news of a peace treaty.

-a little older than the rest of the group
