Trickster

Origin

The Trickster’s family was involved in the circus. Much like the Flying Graysons, (Dick Grayson AKA Robin’s family act) the Flying Jesses were amazing on the high wire. But, sadly James Jesse was afraid of falling. By creating a pair of Air-Walker shoes, which would allow him to waltz gracefully on thin air even if he fell, he conquered his fear. James thought if he could create nifty gadgets such as this he could become a notorious thief. Other modified toys the Trickster has made are explosive rubber chickens, razor sharp yo-yo and super speedy scooter.

Trickster II

After Jesse reformed and joined the FBI, a new younger Trickster emerged. His name was Axel Walker and he had no morality. He had stolen some of Trickster's gadgets and weapons, and joined Blacksmith's Rogues. His psychopathic ways made the other Rogues uneasy at times. While meeting with the Rogues, Dr. Alchemy was shocked that they had teamed up with him. When Jesse was turned back into a criminal by the Top, he returned to his role as the Trickster and beat up Axel, warning him to never put on the Trickster outfit again. Axel encountered Detective Chimp who found out that he was the man behind a crime he had been investigating. After the death of the first Trickster and the return of the Rogues from planet Salvation, he rejoins the Rogues. While fighting the New Rogues, he is saved from Mr. Magic by Weather Wizard. Axel Walker helps kill Inertia.

Prank

In the Live-Action TV series of Flash the Trickster, Jesse James had a sidekick. Her name was Prank and the relationship between her and the Trickster was simular to the one the Joker and Harley Quinn share. She craved the Trickster's attention and dressed like a Jester.
