Toujours Libérer is a role-play game based within the French Revolution. It is slash-friendly, focused on the intrigue and passions of the time. Play as any European nationality or an American observer, as a poet, politician or aristocrat. Even a serving maid. Will your character escape France and resettle in England or will they help French aristos to escape? Will they betray their ex-employers or will they risk all to keep them safe?



Toujours Libérer is open. There is a chance for characters to interact, alliances to be made and duels to be fought at The Ambassador's Ball

The game is open to players 18 and over, and is an original game set in Revolutionary France.

Toujours Libérer Character Wishlist
We would dearly love some revolutionaries, some servants, and some non-French characters. Some foppish poets, some soldiery, disillusioned priests, maids, criminals, and other characters along these lines would also be welcome. We would give our first guillotine to have some more revolutionaries as currently they are massively outnumbered by aristocracy. Of course, if you want to play a member of the aristocracy we won’t hold that against you.

Don't think I'm insulting you! I'm just saying that even if you were phrasing things "dramatically", you should have probably have explained yourself and your game further if you didn't want people to turn up their noses. One does not make an appeal to a community of historians with the same wording as to a general audience, even as you said.

Sorry, I didn't mean to offend. I must admit the comm didn't look like a solely based history comm given the comics and other fun things in it. I'm a historian myself and so is my co-mod and we didn't feel there was a problem with dramatic phrasing given that it is in all just fun.

Ah, don't worry about it. I just read it as RPG-pimping.

I was just pointing that out. And yes, there are comics and stuff, but there's also actual historical links, and we wouldn't be in a historically-themed community if we didn't have some appreciation for history. There's no harm in 'all in just fun', I'm just saying, judge your audience before you say something if you want to avoid negative commentary. A group devoted to RPs in general? Go for the lurid. A group devoted to a historical time period? Assume that somewhere in the group is a devout historian. You might get ignored, but at least you won't be insulted.

Ha, I should warn you somewhat belatedly that, like, 98% of the people here are rabid Robespierreists, myself included. However, since you are asking for non-evil, well-rounded revolutionaries, I'm all for it! ^^ Yaaaaaay well-rounded characters! What kind of characters do you want in particular
(i.e.more call for male or female characters when it comes to revolutionaries)? I've looked over your 'wanted' character sheet; should I leave comments of the journals of people who asked for characters or is there some better way to contact them?

Hi!
That's alright, I'm sorry if I offended anyone even mistakenly. We're about equal right now with male and female characters so the choice is really yours. Commenting on character journals is really the best way to get in contact at the moment!

I'm interested too. Do we have to pick a character off the "Wanted Character" list or can we make up our own? I certainly can provide a revolutionary ;-).

Both are equally welcome! Whichever you are more inspired to do. :)
