Twenty Questions Game 557

[SaintSimmer]

Born before the signing of the treaty of Westphalia (24 October 1648) as referred to in the Monty Python episode "Dennis Moore", the title character of which you may most prominently remember as a Robin Hood knockoff, although his particular idiom involved stealing flowers (known as lupins) from the rich and giving them to the poor, which ended up not helping them very much, as he had probably confused them for tulips!

He steals from the poor, and he gives to the rich...

Charles de Batz de Castelmore d'Artagnan?

d'Artagnan is correct!

Nice pick. I started going down this road after the passes and some of the other questions. At first I thought it was another Garamond type but you ruled that out. Then I started looking at various famous works of art: Phantom of the Opera, Hunchback of Notre Dame, Count of Monte Cristo... actually overlooked the Three Musketeers at first until seeing it on Wikipedia and finding out that d'Artagnan was a real person.

i was going to choose M. de Treville for a while but his real counterpart is a bit obscure so i went with d'artagnan (and actually didn't know he was real until this game lol)

see also game 292 for another three musketeers character from real life

That's funny, I was on the same trail and even looked up the individual musketeers but forgot about d'Artagnan himself.
