Henri d'Orléans, Comte de Paris
Today would have been the 111th birthday of Henri of Orléans, Count of Paris. Possibly the last of the French pretenders to have been moulded and trained to realistically act as King, with a political acumen and instinct to match. He studied law, science, and mathematics, and had a profound sympathy for the working class poor of France. Denied the opportunity to fight for the French or British during WWII, he joined the French Foreign Legion. Under his influence, many Royalists were inspired to renounce racism and violence and embrace democratic values.
On Wikipedia in English, although the Norwegian article is the best resource on the Count by far.

Meet Henri, Started in 1066 as a lowly count of Armagnac through power of meritocracy and intrigue (tho he's a steward kinda guy) climbing to Duke of Aquitaine, King of France and eventually The HRE emperor. Probably one of the luckiest and my most favourite character ever.

Respect Charles-Henri Sanson, Monsieur de Paris! (Fate)
> I finished my prayers to God long ago. These prayers are for those I executed myself.
Charles-Henri Sanson was the executioner of the French Revolution. Despite being rather wealthy, he hailed from an outcast house due to his family's profession - the sanctioned murder of criminals. When the Bastille was stormed, his duty was needed. Nobles' heads rolled from his dreaded guillotine by the hundred under his watch.
In the events of the Orleans Singularity, Sanson was summoned by the Dragon Witch, Jeanne d'Arc Alter, as part of her plan to bring ruin to France.
