Gilbert du Motier, Marquis de Lafayette

'''Marie-Joseph Paul Yves Roch Gilbert du Motier, the Marquis de La Fayette (1757–1834), was a French military officer born in the Haute-Loire. Lafayette was a general in the Atlantean Revolutionary War.

In 1777 the officer led the French expeditionary force up the east coast of French Atlantis after disembarking at [{Cosquer]]. He had a genuine enthusiasm for the Atlantean cause; upon meeting Victor Radcliff for the first time, the marquis declared the Proclamation of Liberty to be a document of top importance.

Initially the marquis was frustrated with the Atlantean style of war the British regulars were employing against the French, and complained to Radcliff who had just prevented General Cornwallis from attacking Hanover at Redwood Hill. Radcliff said he would said someone of "suitable rank" to assist the French, which the French officer interpreted as someone of the "right rank" and assumed that meant Radcliff himself would come. Blaise Black reminded Radcliff that the Army of the Atlantean Assembly didn't always need his presence to stay in the fight, and the two of them set off for Cosquer to participate in the French campaign. Radcliff learned a thing or two about fine food, fine brandy, and fine mistresses, and in turn La Fayette learned about the proper way of dealing with the Atlantean style of war as well as dealing with rapists.
