I present to you:
The Jester
Both black and white get only one jester. This piece starts off in the center of the board (on the two white squares). It can move two squares in any direction. It can't capture other pieces nor can it be captured itself. It causes mischief by blocking other pieces from taking a square or taking an opponent's piece.
The PETA piece. When this piece is on the board, knights get a value of 9999999 instead of the usual 3.
The nothing. If you are an atheist, you believe it can create worlds and universes.
//not what atheists believe
The God piece. It allows you to declare that you know things which are impossible to know, to arrogantly ascribe beliefs to people without bothering to try to understand them, and to declare that the game is meaningless and there's no point in playing without it.
...although I suppose that would be the "I strongly believe in God, but not only that, I believe that anyone who doesn't must be stupid, and so I inject my ignorant, obnoxious, and prejudiced opinion everywhere it doesn't belong" piece.

...Yeah... classic flamer. Just don't reply.
Second most useless piece: The "President". Very decorative impressive looking piece that can move around a lot without any real power.
Most useless piece: The "Prime Minster". Cute little dog that follows "President" around the board, barking and doing bugger all.
The cup of liquid nitrogen. If things get too hot on the board, it can be spilled over it.
