A group of angry divorced men who formed a revolutionary group in -147 EC as a response to the Amphitheatre aristocracy, who they considered to be "a bunch of panty-waists who just want to play dressup!" Predjudices against the Amphitheatre aristocracy aside, these angry young men began meeting as a drinking society in the 'Daver. Originally, all they shared was love lost and the scorn of their former wives, but their anger and frustration took on a political bent after a performance by the Amphitheatre aristocracy. It seems a play, of sorts, was put on calling for a change in Folktown leadership. Of course, a very liberal-minded member of the Amphitheatre aristocracy was suggested as the replacement. That would have been fine, but for the fact that she was the former wife of Maximilian Gustavus Grande, the de facto leader of the Houvers.
Of course, these conservative and disgruntled recent divorcés, who were also somewhat drunk, would have none of it. They proceeded to launch a particularly ugly smear campaign via leaflets, posters, loud voices and free beer. The ultimate result was that Adamantine Areola Duphine, Maximilian's former wife, was not elected the Mayor of Folktown, but remained an otherwise obscure bit player in the Amphitheatre aristocracy productions until she finally took her own life.
