Real name Armand de Sillègue d'Athos d'Autevielle

Athos, aka the Count de la Fère, is a fictional character in the novels The Three Musketeers, Twenty Years After, and The Vicomte de Bragelonne by Alexandre Dumas, père. He is a highly fictionalised version of the historical musketeer Armand de Sillègue d'Athos d'Autevielle (1615–1644).

Biography

Athos tient son nom du petit bourg d'Athos-Aspis sur le gave d'Oloron, près de Sauveterre-de-Béarn et près d’Autevielle. Fils d'Adrien de Sillègue, seigneur d'Athos et d'Auteville, il ne pouvait espérer, en tant que cadet de famille, recevoir les seigneuries d’Athos et d’Autevielle qui reviendraient à son aîné. Il eut donc le choix d'entrer dans l’armée ou dans les ordres. Il était cousin au deuxième degré de Monsieur de Tréville, dont la protection lui permit d’entrer dans le régiment des Mousquetaires en 1640, à la même époque que Porthos. On sait seulement de lui qu'il était béarnais, et qu'il disparut jeune, sans doute tué au cours d'un duel comme l'indique le registre des décès de l’église Saint-Sulpice à Paris à la date du 21 décembre 1645 « Convoy, service et enterrement du deffunct Armand, Athos d'Autebielle mousquetaire de la garde du Roy, gentilhomme de Béarn, pris proche la halle du Pré au Clercs. »

Le Pré au Clercs étant un lieu réputé pour être le rendez-vous des duellistes, il est probable que ce soit ainsi qu'il soit mort.

In the autumn of 1654, an escaped slave seeks refuge at a convent in southern France. After the nuns take him in, his pursuers break into the convent and assault the nuns, searching for the slave. After wounding the mother superior (Pascale Roberts), they close in on their prey. One feisty novitiate, Eloise (Sophie Marceau)—the daughter of the renowned swordsman D'Artagnan (Philippe Noiret) of the famed Three Musketeers—stands up to the intruders, but is shoved aside as they ride off after the frightened slave, who escaped from the evil Duke Crassac de Merindol. Eloise finds a blood-stained piece of paper (a simple laundry list) that the slave used to stop a bleeding wound, and believes it holds some secret code. Later, Eloise is with the mother superior when she dies from her wound. Swearing a sacred oath to avenge her and dressed in men's clothes, Eloise sets out for Paris to elicit the help of her father in tracking down the murderers.

D'Artagnan is pursued by Gérard and his brothers, who accuse him of blemishing their sister's honor. Gérard saw his sister kissing d'Artagnan goodbye or as d'Artagnan put it "she wanted to give me something to remember her by!" At Musketeer Headquarters, Captain Rochefort (Michael Wincott) and the cardinal's guards have disbanded the musketeers as per the orders of Cardinal Richelieu (Tim Curry), the King's minister, ostensibly to help fight in an impending war with England. Rochefort confides to the Cardinal that there are three musketeers that have refused to relinquish their duties: Athos (Kiefer Sutherland), Porthos (Oliver Platt), and Aramis (Charlie Sheen).

The young d'Artagnan arrives in Paris with dreams of becoming a king's musketeer. Quite unused to the city life, he makes a number of clumsy faux-pas. First he finds himself insulted, knocked out and robbed by the Comte de Rochefort, an agent of Cardinal Richelieu, and once in Paris comes into conflict with three musketeers, Athos, Porthos, and Aramis, each of whom challenges him to a duel for some accidental insult or embarrassment. As the first of these duels is about to begin, Jussac arrives with five additional swordsmen of Cardinal Richelieu's guards. D'Artagnan sides with the musketeers in the ensuing street fight and becomes their ally in opposition to the Cardinal, who wishes to increase his already considerable power over the king. D'Artagnan also begins an affair with his landlord's wife, Constance Bonacieux, who is the Queen's dressmaker.
