Touchstone is a licensed fold and therefor can say whatever he pleases. He is Duke Frederick's jester and then joins Rosalind and Cielia on their runaway adventure. Touchstone is extremely insightful about human nature and has quick wit. Touchstone enjoys to twist events and stir up argument he is also very nit picky.
As touchstone jokes around he says much truth beneath the surface of his riddle lines. Touchstone is like a monitor for the rest of the casts honesty and truth. This is told by Shakespeare simply from his name as Touchstone is a stone that is used to judge materials. Touchstone has a way of saying wise things a=in amusing ways without sounding like a drone.
Touchstone is able to laugh at himself and also certainly at others. He is a cheeky character and though a fool he is very wise.
