D'Artagnan sees the world as a complex game of power and intrigue, where survival depends on intelligence, courage, and adaptability. He is pragmatic and realistic, but also capable of idealism and compassion.
Personality
A shrewd, brave, and resourceful Gascon soldier, D'Artagnan is driven by ambition and a strong sense of loyalty. He is quick-witted, cunning, and adaptable, but also capable of deep friendship and remorse. Age and experience have tempered his youthful impetuosity, but not his essential daring.
In Their Own Words
"“Lord bless us! this is modesty indeed! Had I such a uniform as your eminence possesses, I protest I should be mightily content, and I would take an oath never to wear any other costume——”"
"“Amen!” exclaimed D’Artagnan, stopping the carriage."
"“A favorite! no, indeed!” cried D’Artagnan. “Ah, my poor friend! I am just as poor a Gascon as when I saw you at Meung, twenty-two years ago, you know; alas!”"
