Gems and obscure both sound good. I'm going to wish for / guess Eugene Beauharnais, Georges Mouton and Bessieres!

Indeed!
There are also many well-known anecdotes about the great admiration the cossacks had for his person.

"...It gave him the opportunity of amusing himself, by caracoling on the neutral ground betwixt the camps, displaying his handsome form, gallant horsemanship, and splendid dresses, to the soldiers of both sides; receiving the respectful salutes of the Russian patrols, and the applause of the Cossacks. These last used to crowd around him, partly in real admiration of his chivalrous appearence and character, which was of a kind to captivate these primitive warriors, and partly, doubtless, from their natural shrewdness, which saw the utility of maintaining his delusion. They called him their hettman; and he was so intoxicated with their applause, as to have been said to nourish the wild idea of becoming in earnest King of the Cossacks..."
[The life of Napoleon Bonaparte Emperor of the French - Walter Scott 1853 p.137]  

An inspiration for a diorama perhaps?
