Costume Request: Jester Costume

Hello Friends,
I politely ask for a Jester Outfit with functional Jingle Bells to be added to the game.
The idea with the bells would be that they act as a modified footstep sound or an addition to it.
So, they would probably be rather on the quiet end, and be more a wholesome addition to the outfit, to make it more complete/immersive(?).
I'm sure this can be done in a way, without the bells getting repetitive or annoying (probably by adding some variational bell sounds).
If there is a place for Jesters within Ashes of Creation, then I believe that adding such a costume would open addtional ways for people to roleplay their Characters, while also encouraging players to explore the role of being a Jester.
So far I am currently aware we don't seem to have a costume that would fill this niche, or do we?
The thought of seeing adventurous Jesters all across Verra brings me great joy.
"No Adventure is complete without Jingle hat and Jingle feet!"

There is no greater harmony than that between a rogue, a jester costume and, most importantly, their bells. Though costly to one's stealth, that price of bells does not compare to the artistry that this jingling attire brings to assassination. A soft melody before a swift death; a gentle lullaby for the weary and fearful before their much-deserved rest. This cheerful ringing should be allowed to grace the ears of all denizens of Vera and will surely find a place in their hearts, minds and dreams.
Through cheerful chiming we may abate the solemn sorrow of a silent struggle. Please consider bringing this joy, laughter and music to the people of Vera.
This is my personal feedback, shared to help the game thrive in its niche.
"The death is coming." - they said before falling dead on the groud.
While I may not have anything to add what hasn't been already said, I'm here to support this beautiful idea.
I already know all the Jesters are going to be cultists.
I can kind of see players RP'ing jesters in courts or taverns, but you lost me at players adventuring in jester outfits - do you mean jesters like travelling entertainers on the road or players in jester outfits actually adventuring and fighting in groups with other players?
Could your Bard not be a jester?
They just chose to give a different name. Check wiki for Pyrian. You'll see what I mean.
Yes. We need jesters! Gotta have Shaco in AoC.
I am all for a Jester skin.
