Inside the story
Athos is a senior Musketeer and one of the four close friends who stand together in the service of the king. Composed, dignified, and marked by melancholy, he becomes a mentor to the young D'Artagnan, while keeping the details of his past mysterious.
A nobleman of scarcely thirty, of great personal beauty and grave bearing, his reserve and silence lending him the air of a far older man; dressed in the irreproachable costume of a king's Musketeer.
