Traitor.

Scaramouche tells the story of a somewhat indolent and carefree young man, Andre-Louis Moreau, who is jolted into the reality of his times (the French Revolution) when his poet friend Philippe de Vilmorin is deliberately forced into a duel against the sword master, the Marquis de La Tour d'Azyr - the outcome was naturally foregone and to the Marquis, another troublesome republican is laid to rest.

Moreau embarks on a series of adventures, supposedly to continue his dead friend's beliefs even though he does not share them himself. Soon marked as a traitor, he joins a travelling group of actors. Before long, circumstances conspire that he should play "Scaramouche" on stage and in front of the Marquis. Unable to contain his hatred, he lampoons the nobility unmercifully and draws fresh chase apon himself. It would not be a Sabatini if there were not romance in there too. Moreau falls desperately in love with Aline de Kercadiou, though the course of their love is by no means smooth

There's a stock character in the Italian comedia del arte called capitano, the boastful braggart military officer who bores everyone with his endless stories about his personal bravery in combat.

Sound like anyone we know?
