| Hortense Mancini Duchesse Mazarin Birthday: 6 June 1646
Age: 15
Religion: Catholic
Class: Nobility
Profession / Title: Duchesse Mazarin
Marital status: Married to Armand-Charles de la Porte
Sexual orientation: Bisexual
Style of address: Madame la Duchesse Mazarin - Spoiler:
On 1 March 1661, fifteen-year-old Hortense was married to one of the richest men in Europe, Armand-Charles de la Porte, duc de La Meilleraye. On the death of Cardinal Mazarin soon after, he gained access to his wife's huge inheritance, which included the Palais Mazarin in Paris, home to many pieces of fine art. The marriage is not a success. Hortense is young, bright, and popular; Armand-Charles was miserly and extremely jealous, not to mention mentally unstable.

Louise Françoise de La Baume Le Blanc
Demoiselle d'honneur, maitresse du roi.
Birthday: 6 August 1644
Age: 17
Religion: Catholic
Class: Nobility
Profession / Title: Maid of honour to Henriette d'Angleterre, maitresse du roi
Marital status: Unmarried
Sexual orientation: Heterosexual
Style of address: Mademoiselle de La Vallière
- Spoiler:
Through the influence of a distant kinswoman, Mme de Choisy, Louise was named Maid of honour to Princess Henrietta Anne of England, sister of King Charles II of England, who was about her own age and had just married Philippe I, Duke of Orléans, the King's brother. Henrietta (known as Madame) was extremely attractive and joined the court at Fontainebleau in 1661. Her friendly relationship with King Louis XIV, her brother-in-law, caused some scandal and fed rumors of a romantic affair.
To counter these rumors, the King and Madame decided that Louis should pay court elsewhere as a front, and Madame selected three young ladies to "set in his path", Louise among them. Louise had been at Fontainebleau only two months before becoming the king's mistress. Although she was intended to divert attention from the dangerous flirtation between Louis and his sister-in-law, Louise and Louis soon fell in love.

Olympe Mancini
Comtesse de Soissons, Surintendante de la maison de la Reine Bithday: 11 July 1638 Age: 23 Religion: Catholic Class: Nobility Profession / Title: Comtesse de Soissons, Surintendante de la maison de la Reine Marital status: Married to Eugène-Maurice de Savoie-Carignan Sexual orientation: Bisexual Style of address: Madame la Comtesse Olympe is the second eldest of the five celebrated Mancini sisters, who along with two of their female Martinozzi cousins, are known at the court of Louis XIV as the Mazarinettes because their uncle was Louis XIV's prime minister, Cardinal Mazarin. She was born and grew up in Rome. Her father was Baron Lorenzo Mancini, an Italian aristocrat who was also a necromancer and astrologer. After his death in 1650, her mother, Geronima Mazzarini, brought her daughters from Rome to Paris in the hope of using the influence of her brother, Cardinal Mazarin, to gain them advantageous marriages. Olympe married Eugène-Maurice de Savoie-Carignan on the 24th February 1657. Charming and fascinating with shiny black hair, black and vivacious eyes and a round figure. Once she was Queen lavish parties hosted by the young king, admired by everyone. For a short time she believed she might be his Queen some day, but Anne d'Autriche, concerned of what effect the Italian beauty had on her son, intervened. It was decided for her to marry Eugène-Maurice de Savoie, Comte de Soissons. A unhappy marriage is not a rare occurrence, but this marriage was not simply unhappy. Olympe hates him with all her heart, and Louis... How could he swear love to her sister Marie? He even wanted to marry her! Now, Marie is gone, exiled, and Olympe is appointed Superintendent of the Queen's Household, which gives her authority over and above that of all of the other ladies at Court... with the exception of the Princesses of The Blood. Her husband is at campaign, fighting whoever wherever, and Olympe and Henriette d'Angleterre have found a common enemy. Louise Françoise de La Baume Le Blanc, the King's mistress. - Spoiler:
Olympe is still secretly in love with the King and plotting Louise's downfall together with Madame.
