History Blog / AReallyBadJoke

* {{Heroes}}: What Maduin thinks we need, but not one to die in the process of defeating Slendy, but to conquer and live.

Maduin is a CrazyAwesome TricksterMentor who has dared to get up close and personal to everyone's favorite HumanoidAbomination time and again for the expressed purpose of playing practical jokes on him, theorizing that humor can be a powerful weapon against him. Each update to the blog comes with twisted glee that readers can sense from it's author as he prepares a new method of pulling an Ashton Kutcher on Slendy.

* MeaningfulName: 'Maduin' sounds an awful lot like both '[[AwfulTruth mad one]]' and '[[CrazyAwesome mad win]]'.

Knock knock. Who's there? Orange. Orange who? Orange you going to let me in? This is [[http://worstjestever.blogspot.com/2010/10/thats-not-funny.html A Really Bad Joke.]] It's also Maduin the Jester's blog following him as he battles the [[TheSlenderManMythos Slender Man]] as only he can: with pranks.

* BlackAndGrayMorality: From the very first post, Maduin makes it clear that he's going to do things that will get him some hate, and he does. In fact, he takes a play right out of [[Blog/AnomalousData Jay's]] playbook and deliberately introduces people to TheSlenderManMythos and then studies how they cope.

[[spoiler: There's since been another update since Maduin's death, posted by Sopia: [[http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Q-LFNpQ0ViM/VRwg1EXO4fI/AAAAAAAAABU/3FjN79mJVW4/s320/Torn.png This image]]. It was posted 1st April, 2015.]]

** [[spoiler: If [[http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Q-LFNpQ0ViM/VRwg1EXO4fI/AAAAAAAAABU/3FjN79mJVW4/s320/Torn.png this]] is any indicator, Maduin himself may qualify.]]

Maduin has sadly passed on. but you can read how [[http://worstjestever.blogspot.com here]] and [[http://maduin.tumblr.com/ here]]

* EnemyMine: Adrian, the same guy who called WhatTheHellHero on Maduin, is now cooperating with him to end the nightmare. Crosses over with TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou, because Adrian wants to keep Maduin alive to beat the crap out of him once Slender Man is defeated.

* GenreBlind: Adrian. He's still under the delusion that he and Maduin can survive the war Slendy is waging on humanity.

** [[spoiler: Then he gets one of his own, by the name of Sopia]]
* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotSymbolic: The rabbit mask, which could be an Alice in Wonderland reference or one of several other allegories.

* ShoutOut: [[http://worstjestever.blogspot.com/2011/06/credens-iustitiam.html Credens]] [[Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica Iustiam.]]

* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotHeinous: He loses the bunny mask at one point and this is treated a Level Red crisis. He gets better. He loses it a second time and reacts similarly, if not worse. [[spoiler: He doesn't get better.]]

Maduin is one of the individuals the title ''Sage'' was passed onto when [[Blog/WhiteElephants Robert]] went into hiding, [[Blog/AnomalousData Jay]] perished, and [[{{Testing123}} Shaun]] was retitled ''Guide''. Later Maduin took up the title ''Jester'', instead, when Redlight came into the picture and attempted to discredit Robert, which caused the Role and Title System to fall from favor.

* CrazyAwesome: This is a guy who plays jokes on a monstrosity that's killed countless times, lived, and then goes back for more!
* CrowningMomentOfFunny: Well, for starters, just about every other thing Maduin does, but for more detail:
** Making a rabbit mask [[http://worstjestever.blogspot.com/2010/11/masks.html pictured here]], to play up on Slender Man's BlueAndOrangeMorality to protect himself by hiding behind what would be perceived as another personality.
** Capturing an agent, then dressing him up like Slendy and propping him in front of a mirror, then waiting for him to wake up and see himself. Maduin stayed back and [[FreakOut watched the fun.]]
** Then he actually gave Slim [[MemeticMutation twenty American dollars]], leaving a very confused EldritchAbomination in his wake.
** Following that, he stuck a mask with a distinctly human face onto Slender Man and [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome actually made Slender Man]] FreakOut.
