A person who loves Practical Jokes more than just a friend, and will not be selective about who they choose for a target - in fact, a success record with as many people on it as possible seems to be one of their life goals. They will be the constant annoyance of their friends, albeit humored and tolerated, akin to the Lovable Rogue. Using their tricks against the villain will usually be their Moment of Awesome that makes you forgive them for the rest. April Fools' Day will be their favourite day of the year when they are even more out of control than usual (and sometimes it will be their actual birthday). Occasionally someone will decide to teach the prankster a lesson and give them a taste of his own medicine, which will often expose them as a hypocrite who is unable to laugh at themself (although there are genuine jokesters who enjoy a good joke even when it is on them), but note that more than one practical joker on the block for any longer duration will quickly lead to an Escalating War. Usually there will be at least one episode where the prankster's behavior ends up backfiring on him - maybe they go too far and actually harm someone or they are thought to be joking even when they are not. Having the prankster lose his trademark behavior is a clear sign that your story has just become Darker and Edgier. Compare Court Jester and Mirth to Power. Sometimes also a Pungeon Master. See also The Trickster and Mischievous Body Language. |

How Friendship Accidentally Saved Magical Britain: Fred and George Weasley prefer to put their magical talents towards pranking, as in canon, but Tom Riddle, of all people, winds up gaining a taste for pranks as well, thanks to (somewhat unwilling) influence from the twins. His first prank is when he's still trapped in the Diary Horcrux- the twins had been relying on his magical knowledge, so he gives them a spell to try out that he claims enhances their hearing, only for it to make the twins' ears grow to the size of melons on top of enhancing their hearing. He doesn't give them the counter-curse to reverse it for two whole days. It comes precisely during a time when Fred and Elestren won't stop getting into rows with each other, forcing George to hear every inane word at maximum volume. | |

The Many Mysteries of the Finkel Family: Micah and his brothers are always playing pranks on each other. When The Bully Marissa destroys Caroline's art project, Micah comes up with ideas to get revenge on her, first by filling her pen with fake blood and then by leaving a fake dead rat in her lunch box. Caroline goes along with it even though she doesn't like pranks partly because she wants revenge on Marissa and partly because she wants Micah to be her friend. | |

Puck in A Midsummer Night's Dream is this most of the time, although Oberon generally tries to employ him as a Karmic Trickster (for Oberon's definition of karma). However, he's introduced as a prankster who plays tricks on travelers, self-serious old ladies, and random horses, he transforms Bottom's head into that of an ass just for the fun of it, and he's thrilled when it turns out he's given love potion to the wrong Athenian, so he fits this category much better. | |

The Simpsons: Bart Simpson, of course. After all, it is specifically why Matt Groening named him that in the first place, since “Bart� is an anagram for “Brat.� His career highlights include inciting a media frenzy by pretending to be trapped in a well, answering his teacher's personal ad, replacing the hymns in the church with "In-a-Gadda-da-Vida," turning the school weather balloon into Principal Skinner's "rumpy doppelganger," trapping the teachers in their cars by repainting the lines in the parking lot, and getting an Australian boy to accept a $900 collect call by impersonating a drainage commissioner. And then there's all those Prank Calls to Moe... "How Lisa Got Her Marge Back" reveals that Bart's baby sister Maggie has a knack for pranking as well. The two of them bond over this, leading to a brief partnership that is only stopped because Homer doesn't want Bart to be a bad influence on Maggie. The episode "Pranks and Greens" has Andy Hamilton, a former student of the Springfield Elementary School. He is said to be the best prankster ever. His first and most famous prank was when Andy was a student at Springfield Elementary School and Seymour Skinner loved to swim in the school's early swimming pool. Andy filled the pool with worms and locked Skinner in the pool for a whole weekend, including Monday, a teacher's holiday. "Marge the Meanie" reveals that Bart gets his propensity for this kind of thing from Marge of all people. Marge Simpson used to torment her middle school principal much as Bart now torments Skinner. Although she regrets this behavior as an adult, her pranking phase experiences a brief resurgence when Bart, impressed to learn of his mother's past, starts egging her on. |

Naruto: The main character in his younger days; his hobbies were pulling pranks due to him craving attention. He grows out them as the manga goes on. According to the databooks, his mother enjoyed pulling pranks, though in her case it probably wasn't for attention. Boruto is a prankster as well. He's Naruto's son but pulls pranks to get his father's attention. |

In many episodes, his pranks often bite him in the back one way or another, such as giving his mother Dylis Price an amnesia inducing concussion after scaring her with a tribal mask, or having his head jammed in a fence after tripping while skating away from the Pontypandy Fire Service chasing him down for a couple pranks he pulled on them. | |

Eileen Fields in Futari wa Pretty Cure Dragon is definitely this, though some of her pranks fall under Villainy Discretion Shot, particularly when she isn't seen in a particular episode and another character has to mention her to get her Once an Episode prank quota in for that episode. This eventually stops due to Character Development, and this aspect of Eileen's character is revealed to be more of an act she puts on for plot-relevant reasons. It also becomes a Chekhov's Skill later on when Nobunaga Oda attacks Ichiban High directly... only to fall victim to numerous booby traps Eileen had laid all over the school, including one that unleashes a swarm of bats on him as she taunts him by singing "Jingle Bells, Batman Smells". | |

Wolfgang Wentworth Junior (more commonly called "W.J.") and Edgar, the sons of Wolfgang and Edmund, are known for playing mean pranks on the other kids at their school and have even gone so far as to prank teachers. For example, in "A Perfect Disaster," W.J. had pulled a prank on his and Edgar's 5th-grade teacher, Mrs. Sherman (who also happens to be Andy Shortman's Aunt Olga), with something that involved putting a bunch of frogs in her desk (which ultimately resulted in Mrs. Sherman giving him detention). | |

In Homestuck, John is described as the best prankster there is. But he regularly gets trounced by his Nanna, and both revered her adoptive father, Colonel Sassacre, as a master prankster. Post-Scratch, Jane and her famous Poppop share the same qualities. Since they're John & Nanna after switching places in history. John is not one to be overlooked, however, as he drops a bucket on Rose's head as a friendly thank-you gesture for her kind gift to him on his birthday. | |

Revenge Films: My prankster boyfriend crossed the line and tried to shave my hair with a knife: Steven loved practical jokes, but his fiancee Amy felt something was off about him as the pranks he pulled on her bordered on lethal. She becomes fed up with his crap when he covered her sister's baby's nose and mouth shut, to which she punches him off the distressed baby and shoos him out of her house. His parents call off the engagement after she told them about it. My stupid colleague played a terrible prank and severely hurt one of our employees: Ted loved to pull pranks on his coworkers, with the boss not doing anything to make him stop. The employees had to put up with his crap until one day, an ambulance showed up because he spilled lotion on the floor to prank Cassie, who slipped and hit her head, fracturing her skull. This causes the other employees to get fed up with him. Turns out he was free to do what he wanted because he was the CEO's son. |

Marvel Cinematic Universe: Loki is an Attention Whore, so pranks are his way of dealing with Thor hogging all the spotlight—if Loki can't get others to notice him in a positive manner, then the negative kind will do. Plus, it amuses him to hoodwink his chosen victims. As an eight-year-old, he had shape-shifted into a snake in order to trick Thor into picking him up (Thor loves snakes), and Loki then stabbed his brother (yes, this counts as a prank on Asgard). This was apparently one of his finest ruses from boyhood because as an adult, Loki smiles fondly at Thor's recollection of the event. According to the play The Tragedy of Loki of Asgard, Loki once transformed Thor into a frog, and Loki-as-Odin mutters under his breath, "'Twas indeed hilarious!" In a deleted scene from Thor, Loki is displeased with a male servant who chuckles when Thor belittles spell casters ("Some do battle while others just do tricks"), so he metamorphoses the wine into three snakes, which causes the servant to yelp in fear. Loki thinks this is damn funny. |

In What's with Andy?, the titular Andy Larkin is the self-titled "Prince of Pranksters" and strives to be the greatest practical joker in the world. Pretty much his entire town hates him because of his incessant pranking, and he goes to greater lengths to pull off the most elaborate tricks he can. Pranking apparently runs in the family, as his grandfather is also a prankster and his father was one as well when he was Andy's age. | |

The Office (US): Jim Halpert can verge into this. He tends to play pranks on Dwight and Andy out of boredom, but occasionally because they're driving him crazy and pranking them allows him to turn their insanity into comedy. How sympathetic Jim is depends a lot on how funny his pranks are and how much the victims did to deserve them that episode. In one episode Dwight discovers a box full of his grievances against Jim for this that he thought Toby had been sending to corporate. As Michael read through the list, Jim commented that these didn't sound nearly as funny back to back. Since then, he has occasionally been shown being nice to Dwight, or having his pranks backfire, or even being the victim of the occasional prank by Dwight. He takes it better than most Screwy Squirrels do. He takes this from his counterpart in The Office (UK), Tim Canterbury, who played pranks on Gareth to try to cope with the soul-crushing boredom of working in the office environment. |

Joe Parker from Microsoap. The very first episode has his delivery of prank equipment, which includes itching powder, inky soap and a frog to hide in someone's coffee to freak them out. Unfortunately, he can't wait to try them out and both his mother and her potential new love interest Roger end up on the receiving end of all three pranks, and things go south from there. Roger turns out to be a prankster himself and gets his own back in the following episode by stating he left a present for Joe in the shed. (The 'present' was a bucket of water propped atop the door.) |

Journey to Chaos: Trickster gods in general are like this. Zaticana caused a Curse of Babel because she thought it would be funny, Remoh terrorizes entire cities in the name of "performance art" and Tasio makes water pipes burst or fills buildings with skunks. However, they make sure nobody is hurt and they often have a Trickster Mentor style ulterior motive. Aio is a high energy boy that loves messing with people, especially Eric. One time, he snuck up behind Eric while he was reading and shut the book on his head. |

The following are all things Melissa can potentially hear about within six weeks of meeting her for the first time: In Hendrik's romantic route, Rosemarie compares the face he made when she first suggested he could be in love with Melissa to the one he made when she glued googly eyes on his (huge) rock collection. She got on Kyler's bad side by planting knapped flint in his wet screen. Twice. If Melissa watches Rosemarie knap flint during the festival, she gets a piece as a souvenir and Rosemarie tells Melissa to not plant it in her digging square or someone else's. |

On a more mundane level, Clark Kent's co-worker Steve Lombard is overly fond of practical jokes. Thanks to Clark's powers, these tend to backfire on him, but he never gives up. Superman himself used to be quite the super-powered prankster pre-Crisis. |

I Want to Eat Your Pancreas: Sakura Yamauchi, who spends a lot of time teasing and prodding at the protagonist. This is especially shown off during the Truth-or-Dare game and the protagonist's visit to her house, where her tendencies end up going too far. | |

Felicity Merriman and Elizabeth Cole from the American Girls Collection, most especially in Very Funny, Elizabeth, although some criticised the book for making Cole Out of Character. Speaking of out of character, Merriman is mostly portrayed as such in the Hitler Rants parodies on Youtube. |

Doctor Slump: Akane has a reputation of being a troublemaker. Senbei is often her primary target, but she would prank some others as well. On the non-human spectrum, there's Donbe, a Kitsune who pranks via Voluntary Shapeshifting followed by a Jump Scare. Senbei himself becomes one after he creates a time-stopping device, causing mischief all over the village.note This ends up backfiring on him, as his own time keeps ticking while everyone else's stops, resulting in him aging early by forty years. |

Owen Hart was considered a prankster in the WWF. His pranks included: Hiding a bunch of sardines in the turnbuckle before a match with his brother, Bret, then stuffing the sardines in Bret's mouth during the match and putting him in a Camel Clutch (sitting on his back, pulling him up by the jaw) so he couldn't spit them out. Inviting Davey Boy Smith to sit up with him and Bret in first class, then pretend not to know him when flight attendants tried to send him back to his seat in coach. Telling The Rock to give him a shoulderblock during a match, then going down v-e-r-y s-l-o-w-l-y when he did the move. Striking Edge with a hidden foreign object during a match. The object in question? A napkin. |

Little Hands, Big Attitude: Obsidian, Obfuscating Stupidity (as he is de-aged and nobody in his new family knows of his past identity), enjoys doing as many pranks as his infant form can manage. He starts with Jump Scares by screaming at whichever moment will result in a spilled drink, Trolls other characters during discussions (like when Sonic asks him to say "Sonic" and Obsidian opens his mouth to bait him and then spits at him), hides everyone's belongings and puts them in the most absurd places, and more. The only one on to him is Knuckles, who knows that Obsidian can understand everything they're saying. At one point even Shadow calls him out on his love for Slapstick comedy. | |

Laughter in Paradise begins with the death of notorious practical joker Henry Russell. His perverse sense of humour lingers after his death, with his will requiring his heirs to undertake some exceedingly odd actions to receive their inheritance. His will also turns out to be his last great joke, as he was broke and had nothing to leave them. | |

Goblins in the Castle: The goblins have a tendency to pull off harmless pranks, such as switching salt for sugar, tying laundry in knots, and leading children to play in the mud. But they can also do some more dangerous ones, such as putting soap on the stairs, which could cause someone to slip and break their neck (which nearly happens to Karl when he slips on a soap-coated step and falls on his rear, sliding the rest of the way down them). Rather fittingly, Goblins on the Prowl reveals that a group of goblins is properly called a "mischief". | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: "Griffon the Brush Off" sees Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash bonding over pranks. Interestingly, rather than the usual route of having them learn that "all pranks are bad!", it's made clear that their jokes are all done in good fun, and they back down from pranking Fluttershy who they think is too emotionally fragile to just shrug it off. Both are just a bit Innocently Insensitive in "Luna Eclipsed", where Pinkie Pie's letting herself be scared by Princess Luna constantly undermines Luna's efforts to make friends and Rainbow Dash inadvertently causes an Interrupted Cooldown Hug just as Luna and Pinkie were about to make peace. Luna gets her revenge though. In "28 Pranks Later", Rainbow Dash gets really carried away with the pranking. Once again, her friends repay her in kind. Princess Celestia's pet, Philomena in "A Bird in the Hoof". She even tops Rainbow Dash by being the only one able to make the Canterlot Guards move. Celestia herself seems to enjoy a little prank once in a while. |

Black Sabbath guitarist Tony Iommi is infamous for pulling off pranks at drummer Bill Ward, sometimes bordering on cruel and lethal, such as when during their stay at the DuPont mansion they rented, Bill was spotted passed out and naked after having one too many drinks. Tony found a cache of spray paint cans at the mansion's garage (unsurprising considering the mansion's owner and all), and couldn't resist the urge to spray Ward gold from head to toe. This didn't sit well with Bill's body as the paint covered nearly all of the drummer's pores, and considering the highly-toxic paint formulations during the 70s, Bill could've died from the incident. Such was the severity of Tony's pranks that Bill's mother gave him a verbal beatdown on the phone chastising Iommi for nearly killing her son. | |

GURPS: This is one of the hats of kobolds in GURPS Fantasy Folk. Their other one is that they are all complete idiots, so their pranks aren't terribly sophisticated. A Pyramid "Supporting Cast" article by Phil Masters introduces a prankster AI named Avril to Transhuman Space. The description says she doesn't really have much of a sense of humour, she just knows how to annoy people, adding that the same can be said of many human pranksters. GURPS Discworld Also has the sample gnoll character "Wet Weather" Wigliss, who is described as a practical joker, with a note that this really means "low-level sadist". (This was also by Phil Masters, who does not appear to be a fan of pranks.) |

Thomas Sanders has two long-running Vine series, "Disney Pranks with Friends" and "Pokemon Pranks", which are all about adapting various Disney and Pixar movies into pranks and pranks based on Pokémon attacks, respectively. Some of his "Narrating People's Lives" Vines are pranks as well. | |

Urusei Yatsura: Ryoko Mendou (younger sister of Shutaro) loves to act like The Ojou, but in reality she's a rather cruel version of this. She loves pulling pranks, setting people up against each other, and generally causing utter mayhem for reasons boiling down to "it was funny" or "because". And she always does this. Her antics include (but are not limited to): shoving someone she knew couldn't swim into the water, removing the ladder someone had used to scale a tree, putting firecrackers in the mouth of someone who was sleeping, encasing someone in a block of concrete, locking her severely claustrophobic brother up in a locker, planting bombs in a building where people were throwing a Christmas party she wasn't invited to, and goading people into climbing a giant tree and then launching that tree into the stratosphere (it was actually a rocket disguised as a tree) because they were not climbing the tree quickly enough for her liking… and more importantly it looked like they were having fun without her… Honestly, she seems to cross the line between being a mere prankster and a flat-out Sadist. | |

The novel Die Feuerzangenbowle, better known for the second of three movie adaptations, is about Dr. Johannes Pfeiffer, a famous young author from Berlin who regrets having had private lessons and never attended school because he missed out on the fun that's school pranks. Next we see him in a school in the small town of Babenberg as the student Johann Pfeiffer, pulling off increasingly elaborate pranks on the teachers. In the late 60s, around the time of the third (and quite inferior) Feuerzangenbowle film, a whole series of movies started with Die Lümmel von der ersten Bank. In these, a student (usually) named Pepe Nietnagel is The Prankster who keeps driving his teachers insane (literally in one case). His pranks aren't quite as elaborate as Pfeiffer's, but Germans are quite easy to entertain. |

The Transformers: More than Meets the Eye: Swerve loves to play tricks on people, sometimes with assistance. Some that are either shown or mentioned include gluing Tailgate to his recharge slab and grabbing Riptide to hold fake auditions for prospective crew that reject everyone for clearly spurious reasons. He's not great at calibrating it, though; moving Red Alert's furniture in secret went a bit past "fun prank" and into "literal gaslighting". | |

Minako Aino already enjoyed pranks in canon, but went up a notch in the Italian remake of Battle Fantasia Project (most notable is the list of her prank presents, that include a gardening manual for a Magical Girl capable of controlling plants and a street lamp for a friend who collects normal lamps). For some reason, her pranks to Usagi never work, as they either backfire or she loves the prank presents (as with the giant hamster wheel. She uses it to exercise). Also, Michiru has helped at least once, keeping in line with her being The Gadfly in the anime. | |

In Happy Heroes, when Lele greets one of the Supermen and shakes his hand in "Troublesome Seatmates" (S7E3), he triggers his joy buzzer on him and states he's a master prankster. Earlier, in the episode "Extraterrestrial (Part 1)" (S7E1), he's doodled a fake mustache on his mom Ambassador Wang's face by the time she arrives on Planet Xing. This means Lele's prankster nature is established before he's even on-screen, by the way - his first physical appearance in the series is in "Troublesome Neighbors". | |

Haré+Guu: Guu is a Deadpan Snarker who spends most of her time pulling various pranks on Hale using her seemingly unlimited powers. With Hare + Guu being a rather screwy anime in the first place, the fact that one of the main characters is this is to be expected. | |
