You have three time periods to pick from: the French Revolution, the Bolshevik Revolution, or the American Revolution. Your work doesn't have to be historically accurate, but I'd rather you try and keep it as accurate as possible. You have to take your character and place him/her in your chosen time period. Then, you have to pick an event that happened in this time period, and you have to place your character in the middle of the action (not necessarily in the line of fire; just have the story start when the event has already been in action for a while...like the battle has been going on for two hours already, and now the story finally starts). Against this backdrop, tell me the story of your character's experiences and actions.
