In mythology and folklore the "Trickster" is a deity, a legendary being, an animal or nature spirit guide who plays tricks or employs other bemusing behaviors, designed to teach a lesson through the trickery. Sometimes their actions are seemingly malicious, but usually with ultimately beneficial results. Tricksters can be cunning or foolish or both and they are often funny or satirical, even when performing sacred or other important tasks.
