A true fool keeps on fighting, even when there is no more glory to be gained.

The lands of Hallownest are filled by several groups of strange sentient creatures. They occupy various territories around the vast kingdom and developed their own societies and cultures aside from the Pale King's rule.

The Fools are a group of warrior beasts and bugs, lured by the promise of glory at the Colosseum of Fools.[1] Despite being Infected, they keep their resolve and viciously fight to the death in the Trials, much to the amusement of the observing crowd. However, they remain passive outside the arena, unlike other Infected creatures.

The Fools are mainly divided into four classes: Shielded Fools, Sturdy Fools, Winged Fools, and Heavy Fools. They fight among creatures raised and trained in the Colosseum.[2] The God Tamer, the Colosseum's veteran warrior,[3] is the only one to ride a beast. They are also joined by fighters from other parts of Hallownest, such as scholars from the Soul Sanctum and traitors from the Mantis Tribe.

Zote, Tiso, Little Fool, and the Godmaster content Pale Lurker are the only bugs in the Colosseum to not be Infected, the Pale Lurker being a forgotten Fool champion who lost her sanity and hides among the Colosseum's kennels.[4] Lord Fool was the bug observing the Trials of the Colosseum. Their corpse is still seated on the throne in the arena.
