General Personality: Mischievous but not malicious is Puck's motto. A trickster by trade he does his best to never actively hurt anyone but sometimes his pranks do have a tendency to go to far. Puck is carefree and exuberant while loving to be around things that make him laugh and in making other people laugh. If anything he becomes more focused and vexed by those without a good sense of humor. He has a capacity for figuring out what can frustrate people and use that to his advantage to help alleviate their stresses or to intensify them.
Puck is clever and multi-talented when it comes to his performance art and absolutely loves to get a crowd on his side. He strongly believes that “All the world is a stage” applies to all living creatures and that each person is a protagonist in their own story. He loves to flirt and finds that he hates commitment. This noncommittal nature is not just in a romantic sense but also when it comes to jobs, he finds that it can be equally to banal to be stuck to one thing for to long. While a loyal friend to those who he believes worthy, he will still take to pulling jokes on them as a sign of affection.
While most of the time Puck will get largely frustrated by people in positions of authority, those who are humorless, and others with purely selfish intentions Puck will dismiss it with his own frivolity but should you overstep his courtesy then look out. Though Puck can be an almost inexhaustible source of mirth his wrath is equally strong in the opposite end of the spectrum. He is capable of being incredibly spiteful should someone wrong him and it can be safe to assume he will go to extreme lengths to plot out a fitting revenge.

History: Awakening in Storybrooke has left Puck with none of his memories and in his place is Robert Burnett. Robert is the drama teacher at the school and enjoys getting kids to embrace their deeper repressed feelings. He always feels a sense of magic and wonder whenever he is on the stage but feels a sense of confinement in Storybrooke. He loves a good joke and is frequently found probing his fellow faculty for information and seeing if he can sneak into other places pretending that he belongs.
Fairy Tale History: As a fairy in the Enchanted Forest, Puck was supposed to abide by the same rules and regulations all fair folk were placed under. Learning to use magic, the proper handling of fairy dust, to never lie, to not take human size unless absolutely necessary... Even at a young age Puck had broken all of these rules and many more. Ever a fan of interfering in the affairs of other fairies on and off duty, he frequently would journey into towns and delight the children with his shape shifting while making trouble for those whom he felt were a little to pretentious before dissipating into the night. His disruptive and child like behavior proved a pain or pleasure to his fellow fairies. Being able to give the others a good laugh, his wild streak proved almost intolerable for Reul Ghorm whom Puck in hindsight admits he may have had a small crush on despite her rigid personality.
Pucks antics caught the attention of King Oberon who gave Puck an opportunity he couldn't refuse. He made Puck his personal steward but really this was more of a glorified title to being the Kings jester. With his new found authority Puck was given more power and more importantly more freedom to make more mischief. In return he would answer only to Oberon and pledge fealty to him. The King was no fool though and insisted on Puck fulfilling a contract. This arrangement would bind Puck to Oberon and that he would obey without hesitation. Puck blinded by the splendor of his new found position agreed without delay.
Over time Puck realized that this new arrangement was not without its flaws. Being at another persons beck and call can be tedious and monotonous. Although he was bound by oath and magic to obey, Puck has now been known on one more than one occasion to twist his masters words so that he will 'obey' while still making a bit more chaos for fun.
Puck spent a portion of his life traveling over the world and temporarily took up residence in Camelot but his wanderings would always have to be placed on hold should Oberon command his return. It was on one such occasion that he was in the enchanted forest when The Dark Curse was enacted and his life was changed.
