Villa Corvenii
OOClease clean all the posts from previous YATS! So all posts except BLIP's!
Villa Corvenii is an old mansion, but it is still in a good shape. Flavius has a lot of work, and therefore the villa may be a bit messy to the eye. His dining room is in the centre of the villa, and it is cleaned every day.
The mansion itself is a circular-shaped stone building with a lot of windows and a garden just after the gate. This way the visitors always have the pleasure to enjoy the garden before coming in to enjoy the food and wine.
Age: 30
Flavius seeks personal success, but he wants the republic to achieve it with him. Flavius is an emotional person, and he holds honour as a trait every man should have. He is very loyal and trustworthy.
Family: Flavius had a father, a former senator. His father faced a crushing defeat in his political career, and fell to self-pity, and began to drink more and more. His father literally collapsed and lived only by Flavius's generous help. When his father turned 54, he was found dead in his bed. The doctors confirmed that he was poisoned. Nobody knows did Flavius order this murder, or was it perhaps someone else with a personal vendetta against his father..
Servants: Flavius has no slaves. He has many servants, the most worthy being an experienced, retired centurio Quintus. It is unclear why he has no slaves, perhaps he wants to raise his popularity amongst the plebeians...
Background:
Flavius was born in a wealthy Patrician family, his father was a senator and his mother was young and beautiful. Flavius grew spoiled, and he was satisfied with his life. One could say that he was lucky to be born in such a loving family. Yet it was too good to be true..
Around Flavius's thirteenth birthday...
Flavius's father crashed in the house, seemingly enraged.
"I have been deceived! That cunnus!"
Flavius and his mother, Aelia, turned to Titus confused, and a little bit amused.
Finally Titus notices the two, and turns towards them, with an odd look in his face. They stared at each other for about ten seconds, and then Aelia said warmly:
"Flavius, could you go to your own room?" Flavius stood, and left. His mother watched him, and when he was out of sight, he turned to his husband and said almost in tatters:
"How did the elections go?" She asked, although she knew the answer.
Titus looks to his wife, and his eyes were like tiny fireballs. Aelia looked nervous.
Titus's voice trembled when he answered:
"I...I lost. I spent all our money on the campaigning..yet that.. CANIUS FILIUS snatched the office from me!"
Titus's face was like a glowing piece of coal, and his eyes like tiny fireballs, but yet they were wet like he was crying.
Flavius heard his father's cussing, and he was a bit worried. His mother stayed calm, and told Titus to sit down and she'd take something to eat and drink. Titus sat, although he was still trembling of rage.
The next day everything seemed normal again, except that Flavius's father was not eating with the rest of the family. The next time they saw him he was lying on the street, muttering curses for the man who won the elections instead of him.
Titus spent most of the days drinking, and Flavius's mother died of old age when Flavius was 21. He had no money to hold burials, so Flavius had to cremate his mother's body.
Flavius had great sorrow for his mother, but for his father he had nothing but deep disgust. He disliked such crumblings, such sore losership his father demonstrated. He hoped he would not be such a sore loser.
Flavius had problems findind a suiting job for himself, because he was a patrician. He was spoiled in his childhood, and disliked physical work. He was signed many times for a short period, and he learned that with hard work you could achieve everything you want.
Flavius had gained a bit of reputation as a hard and loyal worker, and later he was contacted by a the Scipian family. He agreed to sign to them as a servant, and was almost instantly confirmed to be a hard worker. He wasn't exceptionally gifted on physical work, but he worked hard to compensate that. He was promoted once, and once again. By his 27th birthday he was Scipio's personal servant, and Flavius was becoming quite rich. After one year he decided to take a payoff from his job, and buy a nice house. Flavius bought a mansion near Rome, just by the river Tiber.
Flavius lived the next three years in Corfinium, satisfied and happy with his life. Once he came 30 he joined the senate, in order to achieve what his father did not...
