Louis Hercules de Rohan

Louis Hercules de Rohan (11th March 1736 - 18th March 1758) was a Grandelumièrian nobleman, cleric and statesman who occupied the post of "Couronne Cardinale" all while presiding over the head of Rohan with the title Duc de Rohan (1757 to 1758). He would be the youngest "Couronne Cardinale" and the youngest Duc de Rohan with the shortest ducal tenure within Rohan, spanning only four months.
The perfect mix between his father's authoritative, martial nature and the beauty and grace of his mother, such as how his contemporaries described him. Though not possessing the impressive physique of his father, his impressive height compensates for the lack of thereabouts. He was known for his piety at court, though some remarks and the mysterious aura that the Cardinal carried have led many to question it. It was public that he has gone through extensive studies and though he has published none of his works yet, he is already admired as a wise man. Through his mother he inherited the famous esprit de Mortemart though mixed with the intellectual current of the Rohans, renowned for their intimidating, bold, passionate and martial minds, he would rebrand his way of thinking as the pensée Rohanienne.
Born in 1736 at Le château d'Argenteuil, Louis Hercules de Rohan was a patron of the arts and adept collector, he is rumoured to fully endorse the pleasures of life, proper and improper, though his behaviour suggests otherwise. Amongst his public collections are found a multitude of exotic items, antique vases, instruments of all sorts, sculptures and many religious items. His mother, Raphaëlle de Rohan honoured her doomed son: "He is welcomed into Heaven because he is worthy of it! He proved that the damned and doomed can live while still honouring the Fates by dying young."
