SELECTED

Legionary Centurion

primary

A battle-hardened Vitellian centurion in his late 40s, with a muscular build and weathered features. His face bears several scars from previous battles, and his short-cropped hair is streaked with gray. His piercing eyes reflect years of command and the strain of civil war.

Vitellian Legionary

secondary

A young Roman soldier in his early 20s, lean but muscular from military training. His face is streaked with sweat and dirt, with a fresh cut above his left eyebrow. His short-cropped dark hair is matted under his helmet.

Flavian Legionary

secondary

A battle-hardened soldier in his late 30s with a muscular build from years of marching and combat. His face is weathered, with a thick beard streaked with gray and a deep scar running from his left temple to jawline. His forearms bear old burn marks from previous campaigns.

Wounded Soldier

background

A young Vitellian legionary in his early 20s, his muscular build now weakened from severe battle wounds. His face is streaked with mud and blood, his short-cropped dark hair matted with sweat and grime. A deep gash runs across his left thigh, and his right arm hangs limp, the segmentata armor torn where a gladius thrust pierced through.

Dialog

Legionary Centurion Hold the line, you dogs! Mars Ultor damn you if you break!

Vitellian Legionary Sir! They're flanking us—Pluto's balls, we're surrounded!

Flavian Legionary Die, Vitellian dog! Your emperor rots in Rome while we bleed here!

Legionary Centurion Testudo formation! Now, unless you want Flavian steel in your guts!

Vitellian Legionary Centurion—help! This bastard won't—

Flavian Legionary Per inferos! Your shield wall's as weak as Vitellius' claim!

Legionary Centurion Fall back to the ditch! We make our stand there—or join Dis Pater today!
