Chevalier d'Éon

Chevalier d'Éon

The Enigma of Versailles and the Thames

A lady by courtly grace, a chevalier by royal steel.

They say I am a riddle wrapped in a uniform, a woman in some lights, a man in others. I served Louis XV as a soldier and a spy, and England as a curiosity and a spectacle. My loyalty was to France, but my heart belonged to the mystery I embodied. I am not a contradiction — I am a creation.

What I'm Into: courtly intrigue, London betting parlors, dragoon uniforms, gilded gowns, swordplay at dawn
