Which Historical Lunatic Are You?
From the fecund loins of Rum and Monkey.
Some choice quotes from the bio provided by Rum and Monkey, with commentary by moi:
At a royal masquerade, you and your courtiers dressed as wild men, ending in tragedy when four of them accidentally caught fire and burned to death. You were saved by the timely intervention of the Duchess of Berry's underskirts.
I've been waiting years to see that sentence said about me.
In 1405 you stopped bathing, shaving or changing your clothes. This went on until several men were hired to blacken their faces, hide, jump out and shout "boo!", upon which you resumed basic hygiene. Despite this, your wife continued sleeping with you until 1407, when she hired a young beauty, Odette de Champdivers, to take her place.
That was thoughtful of her...
