Ay-leen the Peacemaker's Page

Check out Beyond Victoriana, my blog about multicultural steampunk.

My public blog is found here.


Introduction:
People know me by many names, all with macabre connotations:

To the Indochine gouverneurs, I am la terreur de tonkin, the "Terror of Tonkin."

To my targets, I am "Death with a Smile."

To the Five Great Families, I am "Wanted: Dead or Alive (but preferably very, very dead.)"

To everyone else, I am Ay-Leen the Peacemaker, Tonkinese assassin for hire. "The Peacemaker" aspect refers to the sense of eternal tranquility that I bring to my targets and the blissful satisfaction I give to my employers.

"The Peacemaker" also refers to my prize weapon, a Chinese-engineered steam- and amberic-powered hand cannon with which I blow people into the next life in a most satisfying manner.

For the last several years I had run a successful freelancing small business disposing of various unwanted fellows for a Large But Reasonable Fee. Life was good. I could afford shiny weapons with which I shot, gouged or pummeled through the heads, chests, or groins of various people (the latter task was the usual request of Disgruntled Ladies).

But suddenly, all of that has changed...

Who I'd like to meet:
Anyone who hopes to bestow eternal tranquility to their most unwanted and unfavored business partners/cheating husbands/unfaithful wives/greedy grown children/selfish bosses/feuding enemies. I charge a Large But Reasonable Fee (to be negotiated on a case-by-case basis).
