Pre-KhaNESII: S.P.Q.R

@talonschild and erez87: Yep. Basically its there so if you want to run for consul, you can palm a Legion off onto your allies and still run.

@erez87: maybe so, but I kind of want stuff to be done by some leadership figures.

Also, I'm trying to write a program to do battles without having to do it by hand. Its... kind of a pain. :p
 
Yes.

Yes. Every non-Roman nation on the map is an NPC. The Speaker of the Senate, the official charged with maintaining order in the Senate and taking care of Senatorial minutae, is also an NPC played by yours truly.
 
Another entry to this :


Marius Blandinus Servius
a.k.a. The charming one

The Servius family has recently risen to power, according to many, by their sheer wealth and insider connections. The traditional business of the family deals in selling of foreing commodities, mostly fine men and women to serve the Roman civil society, slaves as well as gladiators. Through their many connections and their own brand of military prowess, they have managed to quell (mostly which people say interfere) many a conflict. These prisoners are often captured and brought back to the mainland and then sold off to the slave market. Such operations, even though neither exactly legal nor official, have been managed to be kept quiet, by "gifting" handsome pouches of gold coins to the port officials as well as the well connected senators. After all, Roman Elites needed slaves and the Servius Family has been a major source of all such needs. Other needs of the Roman elites, were the gladiators, who were needed to fight and die for the entertainment for the citizens. The family's specialization were the Hoplomachus, the ones that fought with a short sword, the hoplon and a small sheild. The eastern neighbors from the regions of Epirus and Dalmatia, prooved to be easy pickings.

Home Town : Tarentum.
Current Location : Rome

OOC: Haven't read the bios written already. Is this conflicting with anything?

Cassius Flavius Livius

Cassius trained under Sulla himself. He joined the legion as a young man, and his family contacts meant he served as an aide to the general. He was present at many battles, as Sulla took control and outwitted the opponents. He was there when Sulla became disillusioned with the nation. Tired of the bureaucracy. Cassius had been an officer by now. Sulla had given him small levels of command for his service. He stayed by Sulla's side though.

When the general consolidated the nation, Cassius knew there would be trouble. He realized that many people would benefit from a return to the status quo, and that many bad things could happen. When Sulla was assassinated, those fears became true. Cassius immediately took to the Senate in defense of Sulla. He realized that, if pressured hard enough, plenty of senators would accept a return. Though not a politician, Cassius had learned enough as a protege to give himself a decent position in the Senate. Of course, if that fails, he could just go back to the army, where his command continued to grow.
 
Doesn't seem to conflict with anything - the other supporters of Sulla so far are Argetius (Marcus Argetius Viator - SamSniped) and Aulus (Aulus Mucia Laetonius - Popcornlord). Up to you whether you are allies or rivals. The Senate is stacked against you, my friend.
 
Aulus supported sulla, but mainly because he wanted the money/didn't want to get hunted. I suppose it has stained his reputation, but don't think he will necessarily support sullian policies.
 
Name: Gaius Julious Ceasar
Personal History:

Ceasar from a very young age, followed his father in his campaigns. His father was an officer in the Roman army and had seen a lot of fighting.

At the age of 16, his father died in a battle, and he joined the army. He became an admirer of Sulla and fought with him against his enemies.

Althought not a very good fighter, Ceasar was brave, but most of all, he could create great strategical plans and everyone thought that he would become a Great general and tactician.

After the assassination of Sulla, however, he was forced to leave the army and go back to Rome. There, he managed to become a Senator.

Althought he no longer has as extensive powers as he had during the era of Sulla, he at least has a position in the Senate.
 
Julius is historically a populist anti-Sulla family though :p
 
I suppose it was only a matter of time before we got a Gaius Iulius :p. It comes with the time period, i suppose.
 
J wasn't used in Latin, yeah.

But these things ain't written in Latin.
 
Glad to see I'm not the only one terrorized by the spelling of christos' name. ;)
 
Aulus supported sulla, but mainly because he wanted the money/didn't want to get hunted. I suppose it has stained his reputation, but don't think he will necessarily support sullian policies.
