	As the Elves who survived the Robot uprising banded together into high fleets and dark gangs, some Elves fit into neither. These Elves adapted by breaking off into their own bands, and became mercenaries and entertainers, travelling from place to place before their hosts could tire of them, living as perpetual outcasts.

	==Background Story==		==Background Story==
	The Elven Empire was once a dominant power within the Sirius Sector, possessing both advanced psychic abilities and highly advanced technology, but when their servant Robots gained sentience, a conflict broke out and the Elves were forced to evacuate their home worlds. However, not all Elves who escaped this conflict were High Elven Nobles or members of the gangs who would form the Dark Elves. Some Elves were away from the Elven worlds when the conflict broke out or managed to escape through some other means, and sought out refuge with neighbouring factions.

Some Elves were away from the Elven worlds when the conflict broke out or managed to escape through some other means, and sought out refuge with neighbouring factions.

	These survivors soon came together to build small communities. These communities often existed on the edge of their new worlds, as many feared that they might attract the wrath of the Robot Legions, or that they were secretly in league with the Dark Elven Raiders. These Elven communities worked hard to prove their worth to their adopted homes to gain acceptance as guests, rather than be viewed as pariahs or vagrants. They soon became known as capable artists, mechanics, entertainers and warriors in equal measure. These Elves constantly strove to make themselves indispensable and valuable to their hosts, at least long enough to find their next home.

The Elves who continued to move on became known as the Elven Jesters, as they often presented themselves primarily as entertainers, rather than mercenaries or traders.

'''Elven Jesters''' are a faction from the Grimdark Future universe.

== Background Story ==
Elven Jesters are formidable warriors that travel from planet to planet primarily as entertainers, but also to lend a hand in times of war… for fun.

Whilst most elves split up into the two nemesis factions after the great machine war, there were those that couldn’t choose a clear faction as their families were torn between them. These elves formed a wandering galactic circus, which allowed them to freely move between the two factions as a neutral party, without ever having to choose.

The Elven Jesters rarely fight by themselves, and usually prefer to join forces in battle with other elves, or whoever else is willing to pay. They are clad in the lightest of armor which allows them to move swiftly across the battlefield and deal deadly blows with their horrifying melee weapons.

If you hear that the circus has come to town you better watch out, as this might not be quite the type of entertainment you were looking for…
