PIECE PROFILES
Jollies Pitchbelly
Only the most elite of gatherings were graced by the presence of Jollies Pitchbelly. However, he was never invited to an event, choosing to attend as pleased him.
On occasions, his entrance would be dramatic, arriving on the back of a donkey to the cheers of onlookers, who would take him to be part of the scheduled entertainment. Before the host was able to eject him, he would make straight for the food and wine, stuffing both himself, his pockets and pouches. Once noticed as an uninvited guest by the irate host, he would seek to make amends by putting on a comic act. All could be forgiven if he brought a smile to the faces of the onlookers. If not, retribution was sharp and swift upon this crafty infiltrator.
