I was thinking clown for the first blank (kinda like a jester) due to the mention of guards for the first blank...and lipstick and a wig for part of the second clue... :wink:

Eric

UPDATE: have never heard of the word Rogue until now :oops: :wink:

a villain...a scoundrel...someone deceitful or unreliable, etc.


I think rouge is what you're thinking about for what women put on themselves. Stink? I don't know about that. I don't use rouge anyway though. :wink:
