Le Roi des Thunes (English: The King of Beggars; unknown – 19 January 1791) was the slang title held by the leader of the Cour des Miracles, a Parisian counter-society devoted to criminals, beggars and thieves.
The individual bearing the title during the French Revolution recruited a former taxman named Aloys la Touche, who would later become his right-hand man. He later became aware of the existence of the Templar Order, and appealed for membership, claiming the advantages of his underground connections. However, the Grand Master, François de la Serre, refused him membership in the Order because de la Serre did not believe his position was fruitful, stating he had no need for the "intrigues of rats".
Le Roi des Thunes vowed revenge on de la Serre, and was later presented with an opportunity to carry it out by the Templar Charles Gabriel Sivert, who was secretly participating in a coup d'etat within the Order, led by François-Thomas Germain.
Germain later accepted Le Roi des Thunes and la Touche into the Order. At a party attended by de la Serre in May 1789, Sivert and Le Roi des Thunes planned to assassinate the Grand Master. Sivert lured de la Serre out to the palace gardens, where he attacked him. However, de la Serre managed to fight Sivert off, wounding the latter's face. Nonetheless, Le Roi des Thunes snuck up from behind and struck de la Serre with a poisoned pin crafted by Germain, killing him.
As the two Templars made their escape, Sivert called out the guards and framed Arno Dorian, who had witnessed the murder of his stepfather.
At some unknown point in time, three Assassins were sent to locate Roi des Thunes and his agents. However, two of them returned with no leads, while the third was killed by the Templar.
Arno eventually found Les Roi des Thunes with the help of the Marquis de Sade, who whopedd to take over Roi des Thunes' criminal empire. Aloys la Touche warned his master of Arno's imminent arrival, much to Roi des Thunes' shock that he had been tracked down too soon.
When Arno attacked Roi des Thunes who was sitting on his throne, he realised that it was an ambush. The third Assassin killed by Roi des Thunes was used as a decoy, while Roi des Thunes and his snipers try to shoot Arno. Despite this, Arno managed to elude the snipers and assassinate the Templar.
After Roi des Thunes' death, de Sade quickly took over as the new Roi des Thunes.
