Persona 2: Innocent Sin
It is rumored that the Joker can answer wishes submitted to him by a phone call. However, if the person who summons them doesn't have a wish on their hearts, Joker instead claims the dreams of his victims, and reduces them to shadows of their former selves. The Joker tends to leave behind flowers as a reminder to his victims of the sins they've committed.

The Joker is also the leader of the Masked Circle and is gathering the Ideal Energy from his victims' dreams to awaken the ancient city of Xibalba, in accordance with the prophecies in In Lak'ech.

It is later revealed that the Joker is in actuality Jun Kurosu, a form he took to claim punishment from those he deemed guilty for the fire that nearly killed Maya Amano years ago. He was also guided into this role by Nyarlathotep, who took the form of his father, and manipulated Jun into doing his bidding.
