I was just browsing the Wikipedia page "fairy chess piece", and I thought of some good idea for new, cool, fairy chess pieces. but I also thought of some... less cool ones. I was wondering if the chess.com community has any other weird fairy chess pieces they'd like to share?

Evert and I once played a game with a piece called the "town fool". It's not controlled by either player. It just moves left and right to get in the way of things.  Interesting, but not the most exciting piece I've played with.

Game is here if interested:

I'm not sure how all the other topics of innovative, zany and unconventional faerie pieces don't qualify as "weird". lol

Death. Its value is 100 points. It can go to any square on the board on that player's turn, including those occupied by their own pieces. Any space it goes to captures any piece on that square. It cannot be placed on a board with royal pieces.
