Eponine
A girl who's family had fallen on hard times in Paris in the 1830's. Living in times of revolution, she fell in love with an intense young man named Maurice and gave her life to save his even though her love was unrequited.
Where is she from?
Eponine is one of many characters in the classic 1862 novel Les Misérables by Victor Hugo, although the character as we know her is from the popular 1980 musical. She's obviously been performed thousands of time, but we can look at a few of them here:
