Spelljammer Space Clowns Are A Thing In Spelljammer

WotC's Chris Perkins discusses Spelljammer's space clowns in a new video.

Hmm. Maybe I'll make the Slaad Brothers Traveling Circus that goes from sphere to sphere. Those guys look like they'd fit right in!

like Saturn or halo?

Spoiler: The Joke

"Three Ring Circus"

If magic is all we've ever know
Then it's easy to miss what really goes on
But I've seen miracles in every way
And I see miracles everyday
Oceans spanning beyond my sight
And a million stars way above em at night
We don't have to be high to look in the sky
And know that's a miracle opened wide.

And space clowns are fiends.

Just...why?

Someone got beaten up by Juggalos as a kid? I mean seems unlikely as Juggalos are normally affable - maybe KISS fans then?

Suggest better thread title:
"SPACE CLOWNS, WHY??"

This is why.

I've seen enough scary clown videos pop up in my kid's Youtube watching to think scary clowns, as a trope, has definitely become a Gen Z thing. It's a good job by WotC to lean into the current zeitgeist.
