Formation of the Second Triumvirate

Formation of the Second Triumvirate

Octavian, Mark Antony, and Lepidus secretly negotiate the terms of their alliance, the Second Triumvirate, in a dimly lit Roman villa, dividing the Roman provinces among themselves and solidifying the

Setting

A secluded villa near the Roman Forum, hidden from public view. The meeting takes place in a private triclinium (dining room) with thick curtains drawn to prevent eavesdropping. The room is spacious but feels confined due to the dim lighting and hushed voices.

TNGF
SELECTED
Octavian
primary
A young man in his early twenties, slight of build but with an intense presence. His features are sharp and calculating, with piercing eyes that seem to miss nothing. His hair is neatly trimmed in the Roman style, and his skin is pale from long hours spent indoors studying and plotting.
Mark Antony
primary
A powerfully built man in his early 40s with a thick neck and muscular frame from years of military campaigns. His face is weathered by sun and wine, with deep-set eyes that alternate between charm and menace. Dark, curly hair is cropped short in military fashion, with streaks of gray beginning to show. A neatly trimmed beard frames his square jaw.
Lepidus
secondary
A middle-aged man of average height with a slightly portly build, his thinning hair carefully combed to conceal a receding hairline. His face is round, with a short, well-groomed beard and deep-set eyes that often appear weary. His hands are soft, unused to manual labor, but his grip is firm when necessary.
Secretary
background
A middle-aged man of slight build, with a pale complexion from long hours indoors. His hands are ink-stained from constant writing, and his posture is slightly hunched from years of bending over documents. His thinning hair is neatly trimmed in the Roman style, and his sharp eyes dart between his work and the powerful men in the room.

Dialog

Mark Antony By Mars' sword, Gaul stays mine—mine, you understand? The legions there know my voice, not some boy's.
Octavian The Senate granted me Illyricum by decree. But perhaps... we might consider your veterans would prefer gold to barren mountains?
Lepidus If it please both consuls, might Hispania serve as neutral ground? The silver mines could fund our... shared endeavors.
Mark Antony Enough dancing like Greek sophists! Do we gut the Liberatores or not?
Octavian Proscription lists would require... precise coordination. My scribes have prepared drafts.
Lepidus The gods witness this night. Let us swear by Jupiter Capitolinus before we proceed further.
Mark Antony Aye, but swear with steel in your fists, not honey on your tongues.
