THE THREE MUSKETEERS Character Breakdown Athos: A Musketeer in the King's Guard. Brilliant Swordsman. Seeming cold, calculating, and unromantic, he hides a generous and loyal soul under a hardened exterior. Aramis: A Musketeer in the King's Guard. Brilliant Swordsman. Torn between his love of the ladies and his desire to join the priesthood. Swordplay and romance are extensions of his artistry. Portos: A Musketeer in the King's Guard. Brilliant Soldier. Violent and sometimes barbaric he loves his clothes and his drink. D'Artagnan: Youthful. Impetuous. Great with a sword. Comes to Paris to become a Musketeer like his father before him. Quick to act, he doesn't always think things through. This is the story of how he becomes a man. Rochqueforte: The Long and somewhat inept arm of Cardinal Richelieu's law. He is vicious and deadly but buffoonish. Cardinal Richelieu: He is powerful, conniving and crafty and extremely self-serving. He wants to take over France and is getting pretty close to it. His own guard enforces his agenda often in opposition to the King's guard and desires. Louis XIII- King of France- Not a bright bulb. Spoiled, childish, and easily manipulated. Planchet: The oafish servant of the 3M. He is put upon but very loyal and surprisingly handy to have around. Queen of France- Louis's young queen. Her dalliance with Buckingham of England almost sends Europe in to war. Stately and refined and worldly. She knows the Cardinal is up to no good. Milady (Countess de Winter) A beautiful but evil seductress. She is a spy for the Cardinal and Athos's ex-wife. She is bloodthirsty and remorseless and great with a sword or dagger. Constance: Young Handmaiden to Queen Anne. She is very loyal and finds herself being trusted with secrets of state. The love interest of Dartagnan. NOTE: All actors will be required to fight.
