Middle Age

Do you know Middle Age chess ?
The king and the queen are in their castle with the court jester, the horses are at the front, ready for the attack, with the soldiers behind.
Take a look !

The court jester who invented that variant was burnt soon after because it was not funny at all.

Mate in 2 moves

As I've said before @Sarg0n always has the best answer.

Yeah man, that dude got fired! Har, har.

I invented that position. Happily, I live in 2018, I won't be burnt.
Sorry for the mate in 2 moves, I hadn't foreseen it.

Among the hundreds of chess variants this one seems pretty original, although with different colour bishops this might as well be a draw! Nice composition :)

ITS NOT DRAW, ITS MATE IN 2 FOR WHITE. Nxd5 and again Nxd5

Clearly humor is not meant for everyone, yeah it's mate in two, but the idea seems playable even for an unknown variant. Could work interestingly if the castles were in opposite corners of the board, just saying :P

good idea, thank you !
