She is the Queen’s personal bodyguard, built to withstand the most brutal of assault, outfitted with a devastating arsenal of weaponry, and blessed as one of the only automatons in France to possess anything close to free will. One automaton that is not under the command of King Louis XVI but is, ironically, guided by his own lady wife, Marie Antoinette.
