In folktales i think that the trickster or use of trickery is the most important part of the story.Because the trickster puts the rest of the characters through a test or gets the characters in trouble. And the people who the trickster had contact with must find there way trough a trap or escape. in the end the tricksters part in the story teaches a lesson .The Trickster alternates between cleverness and stupidity, kindness and cruelty, deceiver and deceived, breaker of taboos and creator of culture. in every folktale there is at least one trickster.
