Background

In the TV series, it has been revealed that he was once an ordinary, if not rather self-conscious and shy, the jester until the Book of Monsters and Cloud of Monstrox convinced him to become evil. He and Monstrox then summoned the Lava Monster Army and Stone Monster Army into the Kingdom of Knighton to destroy the Nexo Knights. Clay, one of said knights, was actually a friend of his, who tried to encourage and help him before his unsuccessful performance that caused a power outage. Jestro is the supporting protagonist, he is the good jester. He would help the Nexo Knights. Jestro is with his friend Clay.

Cleverness: 4/10 Description No good at being nothing but no-good Jester Jestro is not bad. He is just no good at being good. Or funny for that matter. He was King Halbert’s jester and every day people laughed at him. Except for when he actually tried to be funny, then they fell silent. One day Jestro had enough and he seized the opportunity to become so powerful that no-one would ever dare laugh at him again. |

- He's voiced by Vincent Tong, who also voiced kai.
- He is the third main antagonist who redeemed in the series, other beings are Garmadon from Ninjago and Cragger (later became a deuteragonist) from Legends of Chima.
