Madame De Pompadour
editMadame De Pompadour is the name used by Jeanne-Antionette Poisson at the Yew Tree Ball. After she got married though, she became Madame d'Etoiles. At the age of nine, her mother took her to a fortune teller, who predicted that she would one day become mistress to a king. Soon after this event, she became known as Reinette - which means 'Little Queen'. In 1741, Reinette met king Lois XV at the masked 'Yew Tree Ball' and, as predicted, she became the king's mistress. She soon parted from her husband, and the king gave her her final name, Marquise de Pompadour. She died in April, 1764. The Clockwork Droids think that they can repair their ship with her head, although she has to turn 37, the same age as the Droid's ship, when she's 'complete'. The clockwork droids have already done this with their crew members - A camera with an eye in it, and a heart wired into machinary. The droids now need a command circuit, and they think that Reinette's head will be suitable.
