12	->''"The Trickster figure is deeply rooted in the folklore and mythology of every culture; a cosmic jester, a wise fool, a mysterious, mischievous creature, fun-loving and rebellious, and unconstrained by the laws which bound normal men."''
13	-->-- '''Stuart Millard''' on The Legend of Creator/BillMurray, ''Smoke and Mirrors & Steven Seagal''
14
15	A good-natured weirdo with (effectively) magical powers, often in the form of a SufficientlyAdvancedAlien. This subtrope of TheTrickster is from some alternate reality or alternate time, with RealityWarper powers. The purpose of these characters is to enable unusual plots, [[StoryBreakerPower not resolve them]].
16
17	A Great Gazoo is similar to a TricksterGod, and possesses similar powers, but does not come from a pantheon. Their pranks/trolling are either due to a need to satisfy their own boredom (and torturing helpless savages will solve that) or they have an earnest desire to help their less-powerful friends, but their [[AmusingAlien alien background]] causes them to provide completely inappropriate solutions to the problem. Getting the second one to ''stop helping'' is usually as difficult as getting the first one to stop {{Troll}}ing. The problems they cause have to be solved by the protagonists' wits because they [[StoryBreakerPower don't have enough power]] to just {{Counterspell}} or DispelMagic.
18
19	This trope takes its name from the character in ''WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones'', a little green alien that [[NotSoImaginaryFriend only Fred, Barney, and small children can see]]. Neither is related to Music/TheGrandWazoo.

26	[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
27	* ''Manga/AssassinationClassroom'' has Koro-sensei, a super-speedy octopus creature who can move at mach-20 with great ease. His playful personality and super-speed allow him to do things like go around the world during break time and change his clothing without anyone noticing. Throughout the series, we learn that the best way to kill him is to trick him so he'll lower his guard enough to get a proper kill.
28	* Ryuk from ''Manga/DeathNote'' is most definitely a Great Gazoo. His only real manipulation is letting humans think they are in control of the situation as part of his screwball routine. He is very potent, impossible to harm conventionally, and the only way to defeat him would be manipulate him into [[spoiler:sacrificing himself for someone else's sake]] -- something extraordinarily unlikely given his carefree attitude.
29	* Excalibur from ''Manga/SoulEater'', the most powerful weapon on earth and also the most obnoxious and pettily selfish.
30	* Dung Beetle/Koyemshi from ''Manga/{{Bokurano}}'' counts as well. Proves himself generally invulnerable to the actions of the main cast.
31	* Labra from ''Toys/{{Jewelpet}}'' is an immature baby polar bear whose magic is powerful enough to screw up the laws of the universe. And since she is a baby, this means she'll use it either to have fun or when she's upset.
32	* ''Manga/DragonBall'':
33	** The kaio race are a downplayed example, sometimes for comedic effect. King Kai is able to live comfortably on a planet with gravity 10 times denser than Earth's and being one of the most revered martial arts instructors in the universe, despite looking like a short, pudgy imp. He admits early on that he's not as powerful as Vegeta and Nappa, though. Kaioshin and the elder Kaioshin try to play up their enigmatic natures in their earliest appearances, yet due to appearing late in the story, their powers just come across as slightly more powerful versions of techniques the characters have already seen.
34	** Majin Buu was originally a chaotic life form that was nigh indestructible and could turn victims into confectionery. Once he absorbed a kaioshin, he became more impish and eventually benign. He also became much less dependable as he has a habit of falling asleep during moments where his omnipotent powers would be of most help.
35	** Zeno the king of the multiverse and his angel court are straight examples, being able to erase entire universes out of existence (Zeno) or wind back time (Angels) on a whim. While they're feared by gods and mortals alike, they're mostly uninterested in being villains.

39	* ''Franchise/{{Superman}}'':
40	** [[Characters/SupermanMisterMxyzptlk Mr. Mxyzptlk]], an imp from the fifth dimension. In ''WesternAnimation/SupermanTheAnimatedSeries,'' Mxy claims to be the inspiration for the stories of genies and leprechauns -- after a while he got bored of messing with ordinary people, but then Superman showed up. It's unclear just how far up the ladder he is on his home turf (sometimes he's unknowable, sometimes he's a 5th-dimensional kook with a weird hobby), but in the third dimension he's a RealityWarper. Supes can only get rid of him by tricking him into saying his name backwards -- a weakness that, in ComicBook/PostCrisis continuity, Mxy made up himself because a game has to have rules; pre-ComicBook/{{Crisis\|on Infinite Earths}}, it was a naturally ingrained weakness. In ''The World's Greatest WesternAnimation/{{Superfriends}}'', he even tricked Characters/{{Wonder Woman\|TheCharacter}}, ComicBook/{{Aquaman}} and Supes into making the ingredients needed for a potion that'd enable him to overcome his weakness, but Supes wised up and not only foiled the plan but also allowed Mxy to think the plan worked to trick him into saying his name backwards. When he's sent back, a ResetButton is hit, and everything returns to normal.
41	** In UsefulNotes/{{the Golden Age\|of Comic Books}}, Mxyztplk (note the spelling) was in his own dimension a mere court jester to his world's king. Also during this era, saying his name backwards wasn't just his own weakness; ''anyone'' who said Mxyztplk's name backwards would be sent to the fifth dimension.
42	** One [[UsefulNotes/TheSilverAgeOfComicBooks Silver Age]] story had Superman turn the tables by traveling to the Fifth Dimension and using his superpowers to prank Mxy exactly the same way he normally does on Earth. Mxy attempts to get rid of Supes by getting him to say "Namrepus", but it doesn't work; after he decides he's had enough fun, he goes home by saying [[IKnowYourTrueName "Le-Lak"]].
43	** Superman can be thankful he is '''merely''' a pest most of the time. ''ComicBook/WhateverHappenedToTheManOfTomorrow'' offers a rather disturbing look at what would happen were Mr. Mxy to [[NotSoHarmless stop]] [[EldritchAbomination playing]] [[RealityWarper around]], and ''ComicBook/EmperorJoker'' reveals what might happen if [[Characters/BatmanTheJoker The Joker]] were to gain his power. An early Silver Age ''ComicBook/LegionOfSuperheroes'' story had Mxyzptlk V avenge his ancestor's defeat by killing all of the Legion until his magic was undone at the last second.
44	** Grant Morrison's run introduced Vndktvx, Mxy's son, who has been trying to ruin Superman's life in a non-linear fashion out of jealousy of his father for the attention of his father and mother. Yeah, imp relationships are both cyclical, non-linear and a little ontologically paradoxical.
45	** The Superman[=/=]ComicBook/SilverSurfer crossover was a stealth Mr. Mxyzptlk/Impossible Man crossover, highlighting the differences between the post-Crisis Mxy and Impy. Impy is in it for the ''fun'', while Mxy is in it for the ''mischief'' (and a sociopathic one at that, which presses Imp's BerserkButton.)
46	* [[Characters/BatmanSupportingCast Bat-Mite]] is to Franchise/{{Batman}} as Mxy is to Superman... except he's a gigantic [[HeroWorshipper fanboy]] who honestly wants to help instead of cause trouble. Naturally, Batman finds this even more annoying than if Bat-Mite were just out to get him. (Also, Bat-Mite does sometimes knowingly make things harder for Batman, just to see how his hero is going to get out of the situation.) Bat-Mite also appeared in ''WesternAnimation/TheNewAdventuresOfBatman'' and ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheBraveAndTheBold'' animated series. For bonus points, the latter appearance had him as the cause for the ComicBook/EmperorJoker storyline instead of Mr. Mxyzptlk.
47	* ''ComicBook/JusticeSocietyOfAmerica'': Johnny Thunder's thunderbolt Yz (originally a genie, but later retconned into a being from the same dimension as Mxyzptlk).
48	* A minor recurring nemesis of the Comicbook/FantasticFour was a shape-shifting alien troublemaker known as Impossible Man.
49	** In the past DC had Mxyzptlk imply that he was visiting the Marvel universe in the form of Impossible Man, but the [[AllThereInTheManual Marvel Handbook]] says that this isn't the case and Mxy is merely imitating Impossible Man. This was further disproven in the ''Franchise/{{Superman}}'' and ''ComicBook/SilverSurfer'' crossover. Mxy and the Impossible Man teamed up, and later started fighting. And Mxy was quite offended at the thought of being equated with the Impossible Man.
50	*** It also highlighted some of the chief differences between the two: Impossible Man just loves to have fun, while Mxyptlk's humor has a darker edge to it. The former gets enraged when he realizes Mxy ''lied'' to him.
51	%% * Horizont-Al and Verti-Cal in ''ComicBook/SonicTheHedgehogArchieComics'', at least before the CerebusSyndrome.
52	* With the popularity of Mxy and Bat-mite, it was planned to give ComicBook/TheFlash a helpful imp by the name of Mopee. However the {{Retcon}} involved was so hated that the very next issue ignored the entire thing. He was effectively out of continuity for decades, though appeared in two issues of the ''DC Super Friends'' series. During which he claimed to not only have given powers to the Flash, but also Superman, Wonder Woman, and [[BadassNormal Batman]]. No one buys any of it. [[spoiler: He also gets his first taste of the troublesome side of the trope, giving everyone at a convention super powers to prove he really can do it. Naturally [[TheImp Myx]] planned the whole thing.]]
53	* Even ComicBook/{{Aquaman}} has an imp related to Mxy, the Thunderbolt and all the rest, by the name of Quisp. He is best known for turning up during the Creator/GrantMorrison ComicBook/JusticeLeague run, having made himself absurdly DarkerAndEdgier to better mirror Aquaman at that time. It's fairly clear that Morrison intended this as a parody.
54	* Issue #65 of ''ComicBook/ThePowerpuffGirls'' introduced the Micro-Puffs, three sprite versions of the girls from another dimension. They first appear to want to be friends with the girls but their ulterior motive is to yank their collective chains with mischief.
55	* ''ComicBook/XMen'': A far more malevolent version is the X-Men's enemy Mojo. He's from another dimension that he rules absolutely through a brain-numbing media empire, although he can only maintain ownership of the Mojoverse so long as his subjects like his programming. To that end, he uses his utter and complete mastery of magic (or sufficiently advanced science, maybe) to irritate the X-Men, so they have wacky adventures. He rarely attacks them outright; he does, however, have an army of baby clones of both the X-Men and of their enemies, including those of the ''ComicBook/AgeOfApocalypse''. Ominously, Dr. Strange once remarked that if Mojo ever decided to appear on Earth itself, it would be a very, very bad thing... Specifically, Mojo is a semi-humanoid invertebrate that moves mostly through technological aid, which makes television a lot more popular in his world since his people are more sedentary by nature. [[spoiler:As said though, their technology is sufficiently advanced and on top of that Mojo's presence gives off an [[WalkingWasteland anti-life effect]] while in the regular 616 world for unknown reasons.]]
56	** The few times he's come in person he has shown himself as a terrifying EldritchAbomination with a mile-long sadistic streak who just happens to be funny. He's a WalkingWasteland, natural disasters increase around the world just by his very presence, he can rot you away to nothing just by touching you, Rogue's touch does ''nothing'' to ''him,'' and if you have PsychicPowers, ''never'' try to [[GoMadFromTheRevelation get inside his head]]. Mutilation and torture are also [[ButForMeItWasTuesday just another Tuesday]] to him.
57	* ''Comicbook/{{Supreme}}'' has, of course, a CaptainErsatz Mr Mxyzptlk called Szasz, the Sprite Supreme. There's also Nite-Mite and Qyrk, who bedevil Batman and Aquaman counterparts Professor Night and Roy Roman.
58	* In ''ComicBook/PS238,'' [[Myth/SlavicMythology Veles]] serves as an expy for both Loki and Mr. Mxyzptlk. He has to fight someone each year to keeps the seasons running, and with [[SupermanSubstitute Atlas]] now busy [[spoiler:[[HiddenBackupPrince ruling his home planet]]]] Veles gets irritated, threatens to turn New York into his "personal temple, pleasure palace and gift shop" and then creates a contest to decide his new opponent.
59	* ''ComicBook/{{Wanted}}'' has Imp, who is another explicit {{Expy}} of Mr. Mxyzptlk. However, most of his powers are only alluded to off-panel, with the appendix mentioning that he once accidentally turned the entire world into cotton candy. On-page, he gets murdered by the Parasite-expy fairly quickly.
60	* ''ComicBook/ScoobyDooTeamUp'' introduced Scooby-Mite, a being from the same dimension as Bat-Mite who wears a Scooby costume and fights with Bat-Mite over who deserves the credit for a recent adventure. After the heroes outsmart them and convince them to leave, [[WesternAnimation/TeenTitans2003 Larry the Titan]] [[HereWeGoAgain shows up...]]
61	* ''ComicBook/TheAdventuresOfCaptainJack'' has Beelzebub, a normally invisible demonic spirit [[spoiler:who embodies the character Herman's dark side and phenomenal psionic power, both of which frightened Herman so much that he subconsciously created that separate being who later integrates with Herman at the end of the series]].
62	* The Seven Stars from ''ComicBook/TheLeagueOfExtraordinaryGentlemen'' meet theirs while travelling through the Fifth Dimension. Captain Universe has Captain Loonyverse, Electrogirl has Electro-Elf and Mars Man has [=MarsMite=]. Zom the Zodiac seems sad the he doesn't have one.
63	* ''ComicBook/WonderWoman'' didn't have an imp, but did have the leprechaun Shaggy of Shamrock Land, who pestered her and Etta Candy.
64	[[/folder]]
65
66	[[folder:Films -- Animation]]
67	* Franchise/{{Disney\|AnimatedCanon}}'s ''WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}}'' has the zany Genie. Virtually ''any'' good magical character in Disney is typically pretty wacky (the Three Good Fairies, the Fairy Godmother, Peter Pan, etc.), but the Genie takes the cake, breaking even the Fourth Wall.
68	* Maui of ''WesternAnimation/{{Moana}}'' is explicitly stated to be a trickster demi-god, and his EstablishingCharacterMoment is his IAmGreatSong; He pulls the titular character into a DisneyAcidSequence to distract her from the fact that he's stealing her boat and leaving her trapped on the FarSideIsland where he was himself stuck.
69	* Xibalba from ''WesternAnimation/TheBookOfLife''; his profile describes him as a "mischievous trickster" and notes that he likes to interfere in the lives of mortals.
70	* 22 from ''WesternAnimation/{{Soul}}'' is a very mischievous soul with some low level supernatural powers.
71	[[/folder]]
72	%%
73	%%[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]
74	%%* God, in the ''Film/OhGod'' films.
75	%%* Fred from ''Film/DropDeadFred''.
76	%%* The Ghost With the Most himself, Film/{{Beetlejuice}}.
77	%%* The Djinn from the ''Film/{{Wishmaster}}'' films is a far more malevolent version.
78	%%[[/folder]]
79
80	[[folder:Gamebooks]]
81	* ''Literature/LoneWolf'': Really the only way to describe Alyss, a mischievous demigoddess first introduced in the novelization before becoming a CanonImmigrant in the gamebooks. She's firmly on the side of Good, but is rather playful about it compared to any other of Lone Wolf's allies. And although her RealityWarper powers could be game-breaking, she only uses them to even the odds in Lone Wolf's favor rather than letting him win without efforts. Alyss is unusual for this trope in that she both has definite goals and fully understands what she's doing: she isn't just messing with people or producing loads of unintentional consequences. To some extent she's deliberately playing this role to hide just where her limitations and weaknesses are.
82	[[/folder]]
83
84	[[folder:Literature]]
85	* ''Literature/GeorgeAndAzazel'': Azazel is either a demon or a SufficientlyAdvancedAlien, depending on the venue in which any given story was published.
86	* Nyarlathotep of the ''Franchise/CthulhuMythos'' can be interpreted as a DarkerAndEdgier variation of the archetype -- the "pranks" he plays on mortals usually induce madness and hysteria at the absolute least, but he does appear to simply be flexing his powers in minor ways for his own amusement, never seeming to do anything large-scale that would disrupt the ''status quo'', nor to be working towards any great EvilPlan.
87	* Simkin from ''Literature/TheDarkswordTrilogy'' is a rare example of a human-looking Great Gazoo. He spends most of the books simply inventing his own plotlines if he doesn't like the situation he's in.
88	* In ''Literature/TheDivineCities'', Jukov was the trickster Divinity of pleasure, corruption, chaos, madness, rebellion and a few other things. Stories of him playing tricks on his believers, like changing their form or luring them somewhere, abound. His favourite animal was the starling, but he seemed to favour birds in general, often turning himself or his followers into birds.
89	* Paladine in the ''Literature/{{Dragonlance}}'' novels is a good version of this trope. Consider how every single time Tasslehoff prays to him in the ''Legends'' trilogy, Paladine immediately gives Tass ''exactly'' what Tass asked for, never quite what Tass ''had in mind'', but exactly what Tass ''needed''.
90	* Pennywise the Clown from ''Literature/{{IT}}'' is a malevolent form of this trope. Wacky, powerful, and completely evil and murderous, and invisible to most people.
91	%%* Karlsson in the children's book ''Literature/KarlssonOnTheRoof'' by Creator/AstridLindgren.
92	* Tom Bombadil, in ''Literature/TheLordOfTheRings''. Tom is older than any living thing save possibly Treebeard the Ent, so powerful that he is able to wear the One Ring as if it was just a regular piece of jewellery and give it up freely without a thought, and Gandalf believes that it would take the entire might of Sauron's armies to defeat him on his own turf. But he spends most of his time wandering in the Old Forest and whimsically singing about himself. He provides a convenient plot device to allow the hobbits to escape the Old Forest and then the Barrow-wight, in the process acquiring swords from a Barrow-wight's hoard which later prove [[ChekhovsGun essential to the story]]. Let's just say that Tom ''really'' doesn't fit neatly into Tolkien's larger backstory[[note]]even Tolkien himself never really figured out Tom's nature and origin[[/note]], and there's a ''lot'' of fannish speculation about who or what he really is. Gandalf suggests that Tom is unaffected by the Ring because Tom simply doesn't ''care'' about the Ring (beyond a brief passing interest in it as a pretty shiny thing). The Ring influences people by appealing to their greed and desire for power, but Tom has all he wants and wants nothing more, so the Ring has no way to influence him.
93	* ''Literature/TortallUniverse'': In the ''Literature/TrickstersDuet'', Kyprioth is the [[TheTrickster chief Trickster]] of Tortall's FantasyPantheon and has two faces: jovial prankster, and ''extremely'' bitter ex-king.
94	[[/folder]]
95
96	[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
97	%%* Every witch on ''Series/{{Bewitched}}''.
98	%%* The eponymous virtual host of the French Canadian game show ''Code Max''. Think Aladdin's genie with the ego of Alex Russo.
99	* ''Series/DoctorWho'':
100	** The Celestial Toymaker in the old series, although he was rather more menacing than such characters usually are.
101	** [[Recap/DoctorWhoS31E7AmysChoice "Amy's Choice"]]: The Dream Lord, an intangible, teleporting super-being who invades the [=TARDIS=] and challenges the heroes to choose between two different realities. [[spoiler: It turns out the whole thing is a shared dream, and he's just a manifestation of the Doctor's self-loathing.]]
102	* Mork from Ork when he was introduced in ''Series/HappyDays'' was basically this. A bit downplayed in his own spinoff.
103	%%* On Series/{{House}} , Amber becomes this. House even calls her "Gazoo".
104	* Bricriu from ''Series/SoWeird'' definitely qualifies, although he leans more towards the menacing side of the scale. To elaborate, he often ends up [[GrandTheftMe possessing]] the main cast and causing trouble, and using his powers to do things like freeze time and trap others, all to try to prevent Fi from finding out what happened to her father. Although he works for the demonic villains of the show, he also doesn't like them, and has his own agenda.
105	* First introduced in ''Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration'', Q is a cosmic being with reality-warping powers and profound irresponsibility, with a penchant for annoying Starfleet captains. Apparently a literal example; according to a woman who was briefly stuck in the middle of a LoveTriangle between Q and Captain Picard, went off with the former and then got marooned in the Delta Quadrant after they had a fight, there's at least one pre-warp culture where he's worshipped as the God of Lies.
106	* Trelane, in the original ''[[Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries Star Trek]]'' episode "The Squire of Gothos" is so like Q the expanded novels retconned him into a member of their species. At the time he was revealed (at the end of the episode) as being a child of parents with similar omnipotence, who turn up to scold him accordingly.
107	* TheTrickster a.k.a. [[Myth/NorseMythology Loki]] a.k.a. [[spoiler: ArchangelGabriel]] from ''Series/{{Supernatural}}'' is a darker example. He's introduced as a MonsterOfTheWeek, a [[RealityWarper Reality-Warping]] demigod who spends his time [[DisproportionateRetribution punishing]] [[KarmicTrickster the arrogant]] [[ForTheEvulz for his own amusement]]. After he [[KarmaHoudini survives]] his first encounter with the Winchesters, he reappears occasionally to [[StealthMentor help]] and/or [[TricksterMentor mess with]] them, via things like a GroundhogDayLoop, a TrappedInTVLand plot, and [[spoiler:a pornographic [[DeadManWriting video will]]]].
108	* The Man From Another Place in ''Series/TwinPeaks'' is a diminutive figure with an otherworldly voice who resides in an alternate dimension known as the Black Lodge, giving Dale Cooper cryptic messages while also trying to get a rise out of him. His allegiances are all over the place when he's in human form, but in ''The Return'' he's changed into some bizarre tree-thing and is more benevolent.
109	* ''Series/Stargirl2020'' has Thunderbolt, the pink genie who was the partner of the original JSA member Johnny Thunder and later became this first to Courtney's younger brother Mike, then to Mike's friend Jahkeem. Being a LiteralGenie, anyone asking him for a wish has to be all levels of specific but sometimes, something as simple as wishing the BigBad were toast actually works out for the better.

112	[[folder:Music]]
113	* Music/DevinTownsend's Ziltoid the Omniscient is an album about Ziltoid (the Omniscient). He is very much this, only as an antagonist.

117	* This trope seems to have originated in [[OralTradition Mythology]], making this trope at least OlderThanFeudalism:
118	** [[Literature/JourneyToTheWest Sun Wukong]], who is basically a powerful monkey wizard with a magic staff and a knack for trouble.
119	** [[Myth/NorseMythology Loki]]: The Norse god of lies, transformation and mischief, many of his myths involved the various antics he would get up to.

130	* The Cosmic Imp in ''TabletopGame/MutantsAndMasterminds''.
131	** In the TabletopGame/FreedomCity splatbook, that cosmic imp is Quirk, a teenage expy of Superman's foe, Mr. Mxyzptlk.
132	** In the TabletopGame/HaltEvilDoer! setting, the resident cosmic imp is Mr. Hoppy, a demonic cartoon KillerRabbit who happens to rule Hell.
133	* ''TabletopGame/{{Warhammer}}'': Ranald the trickster is the Empire's god of thieves and those who live by their wits. Most of his legends involve him making fools out of the other gods, typically by tricking them into doing something stupid or by stealing something important.
134	* ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'':
135	** Chaos God Tzeentch fits this to a T. And then immediately warps the T into a shifting, mutated monstrosity to slaughter billions of Imperial Guard.
136	** The Eldar Laughing God Cegorach is similar, but more a GuileHero than an outright MagnificentBastard, and he has an army of SexyJester {{Space El\|ves}}f {{Monster Clown}}s. He likes playing games of AllAccordingToPlan with the rest of the universe, up to and including said Chaos Gods.
137	* The ''TabletopGame/SentinelsOfTheMultiverse'' card game has the annoying [[LittleGreenMan Little Blue Man]] the Wager Master, who messes with the rules of the game to the point that it's possible for the players [[LuckBasedMission to win or lose before they even get a turn]].

In the original incarnation of Ride/JourneyIntoImagination, he used his reality warping powers to come up with new ideas. In the current incarnation, he mainly uses them to annoy [[ButtMonkey Dr. Nigel Channing]] (played by Creator/EricIdle) in an effort to get him to lighten up and let his imagination run free.

151	* ''Toys/SuperThings'' has the character Neon Blast/Kazoom Blast. An accidental creation of the villains that has taken neither the sides of the heroes nor the villains, he has the abilities of [[AppliedPhlebotinum Kazoom itself]], letting him enchant items and transform kids into superpowered Kazoom Kids, purely for the sake of his own amusement. His further antics would turn him into Kazoom Blast, a far stronger version of himself. His power grew so strong that the aftershocks woke up the dormant Emperorder and Moonarchaos, the original hero and villain of the land. Even with these vast powers, he's still more content to have fun for himself and create more Kazoom Kids.

153
154	[[folder:Video Games]]
155	* ''Franchise/TheElderScrolls'':
156	** From the series' primary CreationMyth, Lorkhan. He was one of the et'Ada ("original spirits") who convinced/tricked some of his fellow et'Ada into sacrificing large portions of their divine power in order to create Mundus, the mortal plane. The [[OurElvesAreDifferent races of Mer (Elves)]] generally view this as a [[GreaterScopeVillain malevolent]] act which robbed their divine ancestors of their pre-creation immortality and forced them to experience mortal suffering and loss. The races of Men, however, view this as a [[GreaterScopeParagon benevolent]] act which freed the spirits from the [[HellOfAHeaven "prison" of pre-creation unchanging stasis]]. In both cases, Lorkhan is still viewed as a trickster figure.
157	** Sheogorath, the [[OurGodsAreDifferent Daedric Prince]] of [[MadGod Madness]]. He's a CloudCuckoolander prone to [[MoodSwinger Mood Swings]] where he can range from AxCrazy to AffablyEvil at the drop of a hat. Though he can seem charming and harmless one second, he is still a ''god'' and very capable of [[ColonyDrop hurling planets]] or raining down ''flaming dogs'' if the mood strikes him.
158	** Sanguine, the Daedric Prince of [[FunPersonified Debauchery]] and [[TheHedonist Hedonism]]. He mostly plays with and, at worst, annoys mortals while attempting to drag them into sin with various vices. He is definitely one of the less serious Daedric Princes. His "[[EldritchLocation Myriad Realms of Oblivion]]" constantly reform to become the [[HappyPlace pleasure paradise]] of whoever is visiting. In ''[[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsVSkyrim Skyrim]]'', his idea of fun time is going out on a pub crawl with some mortal he just met and getting them in more and more stupid scenarios until they wake up with a splitting headache, a brand new wife, and their old wife lying dead with her skull split open like a watermelon. The Dragonborn got off lightly in "A Night To Remember", having stolen a goat to sell to a giant to pay for a ring to marry a ''hagraven'' in Markarth, and wreck a temple to Dibella.
159	* ''VideoGame/{{Persona 1}}'' and ''VideoGame/Persona2'' has [[BigGood Philemon]] and [[BigBad Nyarlathotep]]. Notably, while Nyarlathotep [[MoralEventHorizon is a total]] [[ForTheEvulz ass about it]], Philemon [[BlackAndGrayMorality isn't really that much better]]. [[spoiler: [[HumanityOnTrial Agreeing to a stakes-free bet with Nyarlathotep about whether humans will break reality if they were given a way]], then [[TrueNeutral doing nothing to stop Nyarlathotep from cheating]] was kind of a dickmove.]]
160	* According to ''VideoGame/SwordOfTheStars''' [[AllThereInTheManual copious fluff]], the polytheistic [[LizardFolk Tarka]] have one called Sardo Kal. He is also the pantheon's WarGod. [[CombatPragmatist This says a lot about the Tarka]].
161	* In ''Franchise/DragonAge'', the Dalish remember one of their gods, Fen'Harel, as being very much this in the vein of Coyote or Loki, fond of CruelMercy and BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor and responsible for sealing away the Elven Gods [[ItAmusedMe For the Lulz]]. [[spoiler: And then it turns out to be averted outside of in-universe legend. Turns out he's a decent and well-intentioned non-trickster guy who simply had a NiceJobBreakingItHero moment, and a mix of WrittenByTheWinners and OnceDoneNeverForgotten took care of the rest. Or that's how he tells the story, anyway. The fact that he murders Flemeth to absorb her power and his overall plans are "tear down the Veil that separates the material world from the spirit world" despite knowing that doing so will kill every living thing in existence because he doesn't consider them truly alive points to him being considerably darker than he claims.]]
162	* In ''VideoGame/MobiusFinalFantasy'', Echo is a fairie who follows travellers around before luring them to their deaths with promises of treasure. She's also known for never physically appearing to her victims, but Wol is able to see her, and she can even stop time so they can talk without anyone else knowing. She provides helpful, annoying guidance, as well as using her magic powers to pep him up in battle or sic him on wacky invading aliens.
163	* The end of ''[[VisualNovel/{{Sunrider}} Sunrider Liberation Day]]'' reveals [[spoiler:Claude Trilleo]] to be this. The post-game [RE]turn scenario elaborates on it: as [[spoiler:a time traveller and a goddess]], [[spoiler:Claude]] is effectively omnipotent and could end the conflict with a snap of her fingers. Yet she doesn’t, partly because [[GodsHandsAreTied using too much of her power could wipe out all of existence]] by causing a RealityBreakingParadox, partly because [[spoiler:she’s secretly been working with the villains for most of the series until their goals stopped aligning with her own]], but mostly because it amuses (and arouses) her to watch Kayto Shields try and overcome the hardships placed before him through his own merits. Because of this, she limits herself to messing with the Sunrider’s crew in more mundane ways and provides Kayto with very minimal assistance during the [RE]turn scenario[[note]](which only happened because she thought it would be interesting to send Kayto [[SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong back in time and watch him try to prevent]] [[spoiler:the Liberation Day massacre]])[[/note]].
164	* ''VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends'' features Zoe, the [[PhysicalGod Aspect of Twilight]], a [[RealityWarper reality-warping]] cosmic messenger to Mount Targon in the form of an [[GenkiGirl energetic preteen girl]]. [[OlderThanTheyLook Many ages ago]], she was actually a normal Targonian girl who one day merged with the Aspect, and [[ImmortalImmaturity she's in absolutely no rush to grow up]], preferring to use her power mischievously on unsuspecting mortals. In-game, this translates as throwing paddle balls ([[LethalJokeWeapon which can be redirected mid-flight to do some of the highest burst damage in the game]]), blowing bubbles (which [[ForcedSleep puts enemies to sleep]] to make the damage more painful), and hopping through portals (both to make hitting abilities easier and to [[BlowingARaspberry blow immature raspberries at opponents]]).
165	* ''VideoGame/SprintVector'' has Mr. Entertainment, the host and organizer of the titular intergalactic racing competition. He manipulates all manner of galactic powers to produce Sprint Vector, as evidenced by the range of characters he forces to race (including a former SuperSoldier, a criminal tycoon, two cosmic superbeings, two famous artists, a superhero, a LastOfHisKind cyborg, amphibian former royalty, and a feral child from a DeathWorld) and the ''galactic princess'' he has as his co-host. And yet, he's seemingly beholden to powers even greater than himself - his [[MegaCorp corporate sponsors.]]

167
168	[[folder:Web Animation]]
169	* ''WebAnimation/TheAmazingDigitalCircus'' has Caine, the titular circus's eccentric AI ringmaster. Described as a "fun-loving wacky little guy", he's a VirtualRealityWarper who controls everything within the confines of the circus except for the human performers' minds and the Void. Unfortunately, he's [[ObliviouslyEvil oblivious]] to the psychological torment he's inflicting upon those trapped in the circus and he's trying to make an effort to better understand humans. He also sets up random adventures for the performers [[spoiler:as a distraction to keep them from going insane about not being able to get out and then turning into feral {{Digital Abomination}}s. Not that it's enough, as Kaufmo can attest to]].
170	* ''WebAnimation/BravestWarriors'' has the Emotion Lord, a crazy old man with the ability to bend reality (who turns out to be [[spoiler: Chris's future self]]). He shows up to annoy the Bravest Warriors by doing things like filling Wallow's mouth with cashews or conjuring space chickens and chocolate puppies.
171	-->'''Emotion Lord:''' If you kids don't want my help, I'll just take my good looks and my country pork rinds back to the bus stop!
172	* ''WebAnimation/HomestarRunner'': The ''WebAnimation/StrongBadEmail'' [[Recap/StrongBadEmailE126BestThing "best thing"]] mocks this with Bozar in the ShowWithinAShow "[[BandToon Limozeen: But They're in Space]]!".
173	-->'''Bozar:''' Puzzle me twice, Limo-losers! How are you going to play tonight's show after I turn your instruments into Italian noodles?\
174	(''Cut to Limozeen trying to play a concert with their instruments turned into spaghetti'')
175	[[/folder]]
176
177	[[folder:Webcomics]]
178	* The Fae race from ''Webcomic/DanAndMabsFurryAdventures''. That's right, an entire effing ''race'' of 'em.
179	%%* Lord Sykos from ''Webcomic/TheWotch''.
180	%%* Nesariel from ''Webcomic/AutumnBay''
181	* In ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive'', Immortals tend to be these since they have a [[BlueAndOrangeMorality poor grasp of human morality]] and great power. The only thing preventing them from being more than minor trickster gods are their self-imposed, collectively agreed upon rules but even that [[http://egscomics.com/comic/sister3-309 may soon change]].
182	* Coyote in ''Webcomic/GunnerkriggCourt'' is based on New World trickster god Coyote and embraces the trope fully.
183	* ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'': [[spoiler: The beta kids]] when they enter trickster mode.
184	* ''Webcomic/{{Housepets}}'': Of all the Celestial characters (PhysicalGod denizens of Heaven and other realms above Earth), the majority are mature and refined about their positions. The two major exceptions are Kitsune and Pete, both of whom delight in using their powers to toy with Earthlings as part of their CosmicChessGame taking place on the planet. The difference is that Kitsune is mostly annoying; Pete's are ''life-ruining'', such as his ForcedTransformation inflicted on King to unwillingly make him Pete's avatar.
185	* ''Webcomic/{{Minus}}'' is a tamer example, generally keeping to herself on a good day, but being a playful kid with reality warping powers have led her games to inflict massive damage on the fabric of reality on multiple occasions.
186	[[/folder]]
187
188	[[folder:Web Originals]]
189	* Music/{{Bjork}}, as depicted in "The Bjork Show" at Website/ChannelAwesome.
190	* Madame Tarsa, the Interdimensional Toymaker of ''Website/TheCrewOfTheCopperColoredCupids'', is a variation on the trope -- she's an arbitrarily powerful interdimensional being who dresses like a jester and frequently engages in eccentric and [[TricksterGod tricksterish]] behaviour, but she has never dropped down on the protagonists, only considering them "fair game" if ''they'' barge into ''her'' home. She also [[BewareTheSillyOnes knows perfectly well what she's doing at all times]]; her eccentricities are a mark of hedonism, not cluelessness.
191	* Thanks to the great powers and incomprehensible natures, certain Transapients and Archailects have been considered to be these in ''Website/OrionsArm'', in the eyes of ordinary modosophonts.
192	%%* Sun Wu Kong appears him/herself in ''Literature/WhateleyUniverse''.
193	[[/folder]]
194
195	[[folder:Western Animation]]
196	* ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'' has Magic Man, an obnoxious spell-caster who travels around Ooo inflicting all sorts of torments on the locals. His pranks and mischief range from silly (like making Finn and Jake live as birds, bacteria, plants, and caterpillars in "Food Chain", or slipping Jake a sedative that causes him to shape-shift his torso into a miniature city in "Everything's Jake") to unpleasant (like turning a bird inside-out and transforming Finn into a giant disembodied foot in his debut episode "Freak City") to downright dangerous (swapping places with Jake in a ploy to escape execution in "Sons of Mars"). You ''almost'' feel sorry for the guy when you learn [[CynicismCatalyst he was driven crazy by the death of his wife Margles]].
197	* ''WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones'' has [[TropeNamers Gazoo himself, of course]], a scientist sent into exile on prehistoric Earth for inventing a DoomsdayDevice.
198	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Gargoyles}}'':
199	** The incarnation of Shakespeare's [[PublicDomainCharacter Puck]]. In his first appearance he winds up switching the species of all of the humans and gargoyles in Manhattan, just [[JerkassGenie to annoy]] [[KillAllHumans Demona]]. Even in episodes like "Possession," where he's being helpful, he goes out of his way to do so [[ItAmusedMe in the most annoying way possible]].
200	** Gargoyles had quite a few demigods and deities, thanks to its [[FantasyKitchenSink setting]]. Some of those characters might qualify as Great Gazoos, such as Coyote. Loki did not appear; WordOfGod is that Loki (and Thor) [[BusCrash died in Ragnarok]] specifically because they wanted to focus on lesser–known characters.
201	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Hilda}}'': The titular Merman of the episode “The Laughing Merman” is quite the flamboyant showman and skilled [[MasterOfIllusion illusionist.]] The only problem is that he desires a CaptiveAudience, and he’s willing to resort to the [[ForcedTransformation usual]] [[ExactWords tricks]] to get it.
202	* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'':
203	** The Great Gazoo is given a ShoutOut in "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS8E24TheSimpsonsSpinOffShowcase The Simpsons Spinoff Showcase]]", showing "Ozmodiar" as a little green alien that only Homer can see. The joke many fans missed was that in an interview, Creator/MattGroening said that the introduction of a Great Gazoo would officially mark [[JumpingTheShark the death of the series]].
204	** In another episode, the Simpsons are at an animation convention, and Bart and Lisa watch a clip from an {{Anime}}:
205	--->'''Lisa:''' [[FridgeLogic Wait, I'm confused, why was a wolf shooting a web?]]\
206	'''Bart:''' [[MST3KMantra Cartoons don't have to make sense.]]\
207	'''Ozmodiar:''' ''[appears out of nowhere]'' He's right, you know!
208	* The ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans2003'' episode "Fractured" guest-stars Larry the Titan (also known as [[SdrawkcabName Nosyarg Kcid]]), a Bat-Mite-inspired "SuperDeformed Robin" imp from dimension [[MindScrew four and nine eighths]].
209	* ''Franchise/MastersOfTheUniverse'':
210	** Orko from ''WesternAnimation/HeManAndTheMastersOfTheUniverse1983''. The twist? He only has omnipotence in his homeworld -- in Eternia, he is mostly an IneptMage. However one episode features another trollan called Prankster, who is an even straighter example, and he makes a lot of trouble for He-Man and co. The only way to get rid of him was to trick him into saying his real name.
211	** [[WesternAnimation/HeManAndTheMastersOfTheUniverse2002 The 2002 reboot]] at least demonstrated why this was. Orko could manage his powers just fine with his wand, which he accidentally lost while saving a young Prince Adam and Cringer shortly after arriving in Eternia.
212	** The Filmation version had a similar plot, though in this case it was a medallion rather than a wand. When Orko got it back, magic was quite impressive. Unfortunately resolving the episode's plot required him to give it up again.
213	** It should be noted that even without his wand/medallion, Orko is still quite powerful on Eternia. When he gets to concentrate or isn't trying to impress someone with conflated tricks, he's been able to beat [[BigBad Skeletor]] in terms of magic.
214	%%* Probably the most spectacular Great Gazoo was God in ''WesternAnimation/GodTheDevilAndBob''.
215	%%* Gazoo himself shows up in an episode of ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy''.
216	* The ''WesternAnimation/LegionOfSuperHeroes2006'' episode "Child's Play" introduces Zyx, a SpoiledBrat runaway from a magical ObstructiveBureaucrat planet (as well as a transparent stand-in for Mr. Mxyzptlk).
217	* ''WesternAnimation/AladdinTheSeries'':
218	** There's an episode with a blue cat creature named Chaos who is said to be stronger than any genie.
219	** Another episode has a pair of small Gazoo-like {{Reality Warper}}s, who force the cast to compete in various games. At one point Iago suggests that, with their powers, they should try to TakeOverTheWorld or something instead. They reply that ruling it got boring after a few centuries.
220	* ''Literature/TheMagicSchoolBus'': Ms. Frizzle qualifies as a human example, using the namesake bus to turn her class into bees, fly into outer space, travel through time, or shrink to the size of human cells. She's also a wholly benevolent version, since she does it all to [[MundaneUtility teach her science class]], and while there are a few close calls, the kids always get out of it perfectly safe.
221	%%* Eris, the Goddess of Chaos in ''WesternAnimation/TheGrimAdventuresOfBillyAndMandy.''
222	%%* The title-characters in ''WesternAnimation/TheFairlyOddParents'' definitely qualify.
223	%%** Also some other magical creatures that have shown up throughout the series like genies, pixies, and anti-fairies.
224	%%* The animated version of WesternAnimation/{{Beetlejuice}}.
225	* ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'': [[Characters/FriendshipIsMagicDiscord Discord]], the spirit of Chaos and Disharmony and the opening baddie of the second season, zigzags this trope like no tomorrow. A [[RealityWarper reality-warping]] TricksterGod, he uses his powers to screw with the mane cast. He seems at first like he'll be a classic example, dancing inside stained glass windows and summoning chocolate rain, but when he starts using MindRape and MoreThanMindControl to turn Twilight's friends against her, [[SubvertedTrope he turns out to be a fair bit nastier than is the norm for this type]]. By Season 3, he has reformed, [[ReformedButNotTamed but his mischievous nature goes untamed]], making him a straight example -- he's still a {{Jerkass}} but in a far more lighthearted way, and his antics -- [[TricksterMentor intentionally or not]] -- end up teaching the main characters valuable lessons. [[FaceHeelTurn Then he temporarily goes back to being evil]] when he's manipulated by [[BigBad Tirek]], who betrays him once he [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness outlives his usefulness]], so he redeems himself '''[[HeelFaceRevolvingDoor again]]''' and starts playing the trope straight once more. Bonus points for being voiced by Creator/JohnDeLancie, who [[ActorAllusion also played Q]].
226	* {{Parodied\|Trope}} twice in ''WesternAnimation/RobotChicken''.
227	** The first time involved a TakeThat to Wesley Crusher on ''Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration'' with the network executives adding in the annoying, space banjo playing Snirkles to make Wesley look better in comparison. The fans paid for a billboard to read "Kill Wesley. Keep Snirkles".
228	** The second time had Gazoo appearing to the Flintstones for the first time. Fred and Barney believed him to be some type of god and offered their wives and animal sacrifices to appease him. They then savagely killed him when they get sick of him.
229	* The ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'' episode "[[Recap/FuturamaS4E11WhereNoFanHasGoneBefore Where No Fan Has Gone Before]]" had the {{Energy Being\|s}} Melllvar, who kidnaps the Planet Express and forces them, and the re-corporated heads of the ''Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries'' cast to re-enact old episodes.
230	* Bill Cipher from ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls'' is another much darker take on this trope, to the point of subversion. "A trickster [[{{Jerkass}} jerk]]" according to WordOfGod, Bill has the voice, the look and the mannerisms of a Gazoo, but even at his best he is creepier than Discord (above) '''at his worst'''. Right off the bat, [[EstablishingCharacterMoment one of the first things we see him do]] is rip all the teeth out of a deer's mouth, and he gets '''worse''' as the series progresses. By the finale, [[spoiler:where he flat-out invades our dimension,]] he's more ''ComicBook/EmperorJoker'' than Great Gazoo.
231	* ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'': [[spoiler: [[Characters/TheOwlHouseTheCollector The Collector]]]] is a powerful reality warper with the mind of a playful child, though they are actually far older than they appear. Subverted in that the rest of their species are far less playful, interested only in cataloguing and preserving planets and their inhabitants and exterminating any that resist.
232	* Glomer on ''WesternAnimation/PunkyBrewster''. He's more naive and clumsy than he is mischievous.
233	* It took the ''Franchise/Ben10'' franchise until ''Omniverse'' to introduce an homage to the original Great Gazoo himself in the form of Charles Zenith. He's a goofy green humanoid alien trickster with annatane and capable of being able to do many strange things with just a snap of his fingers. PlayedForLaughs given he's a game show host of a dating show in an episode lampooning the various ships and pairings in Ben's life, to where most of the Plumbers are watching Ben deal with the inanity... at least until [[OhCrap Ben realizes he cannot contact the girls and points they're in the Null Void.]] Why? ''To feed on.''
234	** To elaborate, Attea reveals that he is a Pugnavore, a type of alien that subsists on drama and conflict (as in literally feeding on it, hence why his show is called "The Most Delicious Game".) As such, the whole thing is PlayedForDrama given he runs the show to kidnap people to "feed" on in the off-season, stranded in a dangerous place like the Null Void. Fortunately, Ben quickly figures out his (and presumably that of the rest of his kind's) weakness. ''Boredom.'' Cue Ben turning into [[LethalJokeCharacter Pesky Dust]] to put him to sleep and trap Zenith in an intensely boring dream... That of Rook going into a long and detailed lecture on his peoples' agricultural habits.
235	* In the ''WesternAnimation/Ben102016'' episode, "Xingo," Ben accidentally [[RefugeeFromTVLand brings the titular character into his reality]] when he goes Upgrade to fix the TV and lightning strikes the satellite dish. Xingo, despite no longer being in his own reality, still operates ''entirely'' on [[ToonPhysics cartoon logic]]. He's [[NighInvulnerability nigh-invulnerable]], capable of seemingly unlimited [[VoluntaryShapeshifting shapeshifting]], can [[RealityWarper materialize any object out of thin air]], and is at the very least Type Two [[TheOmnipotent omnipotent]]. He's also completely incapable of distinguishing between what is harmless fun and actually ''harmful'' outside of his normal cartoon reality.
236	%%* ''[[WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles1987 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]]'' get one in "Mr. Ogg Goes to Town".
237	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Undergrads}}'': Great Gazoo himself appears in the first episode "Party" as a hallucination Rocko has while tripping off a can of decades-old clam juice he drank as part of a fraternity hazing. Not demanded by the frat, Rocko was just randomly hazing himself to impress the frat brothers. In reality, the person talking is Gimpy's henchman Mump.
238	-->'''Rocko:''' Oh Great Gazoo, what should I do?\
239	'''Mump:''' Show some dignity man! You're making an ass of yourself!\
240	'''Rocko:''' Whuh?\
241	'''Gazoo:''' Sho-nugh, diggity man! Just keep making a jolly old ass of yourself!
242	* ''WesternAnimation/HarveyBirdmanAttorneyAtLaw'': Mentok the Mindtaker, a judge who usually cares little about the cases he presides over and instead spends his time using his powers to mess with everyone in the courtroom.
243	* The Hormone Monsters from ''WesternAnimation/BigMouth'' possess some degree of magical ability and cause all sorts of unnecessary stress on the kids they hang around (not out of malice but out of impulse) and can only be seen by certain people.
244	* ''WesternAnimation/MoonGirlAndDevilDinosaur2023'': The Beyonder. He's much hammier and more playful than his comic version and is comparable to [[Franchise/StarTrek Q]] in a lot of ways, especially his HumanityOnTrial schtick.
