Jacques is thought to be from a very long line of fools, although his history is a bit vague.
His father was probably a soldier who went to the crusades and never returned.
At the age of six, he and his mother were performing with a group of tumblers and acrobats on the streets of paris.
He was sold to Henry de Faucumberg by his mother, to give him a chance of a better life.
Henry gave the child to his sister, to keep her amused and Jacque has been entertaining her with magic tricks and other foolish things ever since he can often be found with Mad Maude and Lady Guinevere and has been known to shoot a long bow
