I love this idea, Sean. It made me laugh a lot just imagining him shouting "Tally Ho!" How does your character handle less jovial situations when he's completely insane? If you've ever met an insane person in real life, you know it's definitely not funny in the slightest.

Of course, in fantasy, insanity can be hilarious, because we can ignore all the unhappy bits. Or we can make our character only insane when it would be funny, and yet very reasonable when the situation demands it. It's a convenient fiction, but it's better than the facts, for our purposes at least.
