Lamarque || Open || Canon & Modern

Jean Maximilien Lamarque 

Status: Open

Face claim: Ian Mckellen Age: Canon and Modern: 70

Background: Lamarque was once a well known activist in and around Paris. Once a hippy, he protested for everyones rights. The right for freedom, the right to love, the right for education… Eventually he got sick, experimenting with too many drugs he picked up a disease and gradually his health began to fade. Now 70, he still sick but he’s still going. It’s been years since anyone has truly heard from him, but the Amis treasure him and barely a week passes without him receiving a letter from them. Maybe he will eventually reply.

Babet || Open || Canon & modern

Babet

Status: Available

Face claim: David Morrisey Age:  40

Background: Babet once had a family. A loving wife, three children… but he also had a gambling addiction and a violent past. He hid his true nature and his past convictions from his family, trying to live the perfect life but he knew it wasn’t for him. He craved the adrenaline, the look of fear in his victims eyes. He enjoyed the money even more. One night he left. He got up and walked out of the door, taking only the clothes on his back. He was welcomed back to Patron Minette with open arms. When asked what his job is, he’ll tell you he’s a chemist but that is far from the truth.

Madame Thenardier || Open || Canon & Modern

Madame Thenardier

Status: Open

Face claim: Helena Bonham Carter Age: 45

Background: Madame Thenardier was taken in at a young age by her husband, 7 years older than her at the time. Once spoiled by him, now she lives a life of crime similar to his own. Her temper isn’t as short as his, and she drinks a few bottles less than he does but her words are sharper and she is much more cunning. She keeps Patron Minette in their places when they’re inside her home and they all respect the one woman that is willing to stand up to her husband. She envies her children and their new life styles, but her sharp words keep them away and she’s not all evil. Maybe she can stop them falling for a man like she did.

Cosette Fauchelevent Status: Available

Face claim: Alina Kovalenko 

Age: 19

Background: Cosette was in the foster care system until she was six years old, left to live with the Jondrette family until Valjean adopted her. Home schooled by her Father, she has lived a very sheltered life and has very few friends. Her time is split between staying at home and sitting her Fathers psychologist office where many of the infamous Amis spend their time. She still has some emotional and physical scars from her rough childhood but with the help her Father, she has almost over come those. Although she knows very little about the world outside her home, most of her knowledge comes from the books that she obsessively reads. Of course, her favourites are the romance novels. From Jane Eyre to Bridgette Lesley, she’s read them all.

He used their foster child as a slave and once she was gone, his own children took her place. Thenardier is a far from kind man. His anger knows no bounds and neither does his greed.

Modern Les Miserables

No one ever expected France to start taking steps backwards. No one expected to end up governed by a political system that resembled the 1800s.  Science has advanced, technology has advanced, but society has regressed. This is supposed to be the 21st century but so much has changed in the past two years, it’s hard to tell.

Where women are seen as the lesser sex and the rich are getting richer, the poor are getting poorer. Education is a privilege that is now generally only granted to men with money, whilst the women stay at home cooking and looking after the family.

By now most people have accepted this but not everyone. The infamous Les Amis are not going to stand by and watch as everyone else suffers, not when they have the ability to speak up for those without a voice.

Led by their leader, Enjolras. The Amis are determined to make a difference. Perhaps this time they will succeed.
