Dominus Tiberius Honorius Lentulus - Pater familias 30 years Tiberius is a patrician man who was born from a rich patrician family. He lost his mother when he was 17 years old when she got murdered by plebeian gangs, this is also the reason why he hates the plebs so much. Tiberius strongly believes in the social hierachy of Rome. He also is very religious and is often seen praying with his wife. When he was 19 years old he married with Caecilia who was abandoned by her family. When it was discovered she was infertile tiberius's father demanded Tiberius to dissolve the marriage or to leave his house. As Tiberius did not wanted to leave his wife he secretly poisened his father with the approval of Caecilia. Tiberius is also know to be a alcoholist. Domina Caecilia - Mater familias 26 years Caecilia was born in a poor family who never really appreciated her birth as she was a girl. When she was 11 years her family abandoned her totally and left her on the streets. She quickly was welcomed in a diffrent family that took care of her. Due to her beautifull looks she quickly gained high ranking contacts including Tiberius. But it was only Tiberius who really cared about her and so Caecilia deceided to marry with Tiberius. When it got discovered she was infertile she was asked to leave the house of Tiberius' father. Tiberius then made a plan with Caecilia to murder the father of Tiberius to keep the marriage alive. Due to this events Caecilia has developed a strong hate for children and has no problems with murdering people who oppose herself and her husband. Due to her high ranking contacts from the past Tiberius has gained support amongst the patricians in the senate. Caecilia is also know to have strong sexual desires and it does not really matter to her who the victims are of her sexual appetites. Vipsania - Sister of Tiberius 20 years

Agrippa Menenius Lanatus arrives to the domus of Honorius Lentulus.

[Mary The Quene]

Tiberius was enjoying a nice meal with his wife and sister. The senator was disucssing Roman politics with his wife and Sister especially about the position of Aedile which Tiberius is running for. However when a slave of Tiberius said that senator Lanatus had arrived he ended the discussion and rushed towards the senator to meet him.

'Hello Senator Lanatus, welcome in the house of Lentulus. May i present you my wife lovely Caecilia and my beautifull sister Vipsania?


The women were shy and bowed deep for the senator and greeted him with great respect


'Welcome to the house of Lentulus' both said.

Tiberius moved again towards Senator Lanatus and offered to shake hands with him, a sign of tremendous respect and goodwill. He also offered him the best greek wine he has in his house


'The best year i've in my house, the wine is from greece, given from a greek friend, let's take a seat and speak freely in my house.

Caecilia and Vipsania also took a seat and listened to the senator

Agrippa saluted both the women and the senator respectfully

"My pleasure to be received so gracefully into your domus, and a pleasure to meet such fair ladies too"

Lanatus sits comfortably, and grabs the wine cup. Agrippa was an admirer of the Greeks too, so it was pleasant to speak with someone who shared that admiration:

"Thanks, a good wine indeed"

He sips

"I've heard you want to run for aedile this year, doesn't it?"

He looks to the senator inquisitively, his sharp eyes stare Lentulus.

Tiberius looked to the Senator

'Yes that information is correct'

'Is the information that i received about you running for Consul also correct?'

Tiberius ordered his slaves to prepare a meal for this could be a long conversation. Meanwhile both women whispered gossip to eachother silently about the wife of the Senator.

'Caecilia and Vipsania i ask you to stop it, i do not want to offend a fellow patrician and a possible Consul in the near future'

"Indeed, I run for the greatest office in the Republic, an office my ancestors have held five times in the past"

Things weren't as smooth for the Menenia lately, with decreasing wealth and fortune. Agrippa had to be elected and reverse the fate of his gens.

"And friends come in handy, more so when we are both admirers of the Greeks and their customs"

Even if they can't rival with our own.

Thought Agrippa while sipping again.

"I'll offer you my support to run for aedile"

Tiberius smiled knowing he received support for being an Aedile and a friend who admires Greeks.

'And i hope you will honour your ancestors. I support you as Consul senator'

'It is good to have a friend who admires greeks as consul,I've heard there's a man in greece currently undefeated and is subjugating city after city, interesting developments......'

Caecilia drank from her wine and stared to the senator and spoke

' Certainly the gods have blessed this day with good fortune i guess we have an agreement then?'

Tiberius and Vipsania relaxed in his chair and Caecilia brought food to the Senator it has been a long conversation and the thought about greece and the greek cuisine made us hungry

Tiberius was sleeping with his wife and sister and was woke up by a slave who told him that a senator awaited him. When the slave revealed more information about the senator Tiberius moaned about the senator being a pleb.

'I hate plebs and everything they stand for so he better come here with something important' Tiberius told to his sister Vipsania who woke up also

Tiberius walks outside and meets the Senator and he greeted him but he does not shake hands with him as he usually does with patricians.

'Welcome in my house, let's take a seat in the garden, so what brings a plebeian to the house of Lentulus, protected by Apollo?'

Tiberius offered him wine and food and waited for Titus' answer.

[grouchy13]

Lucius accepts Tiberius of wine, he takes a sip and measures Tiberius. He can sense this could be a potentially fruitless negotiation but decides that it is not devoid of merit. He begins his proposal,

'Apollo be praised good Tiberius My Father looks for partners to join him in the establishment of a Mining Corperation, he is looking for an investment of Capital in return he is offering a return in resources such as Iron and Copper for the construction of Weapons, Lead for Construction, Silver for Minting etc etc. Your involvement Senator only depends on the scale of your desired return but rest assured any return will be considerably less than the investment required to garner these items on the open market'

A messenger arrives with a scroll bearing a message from Quaestor Lucius Julius Libo.

The Quaestor requests Aedile Tiberius Honorius to meet him outside the Temple of Saturn to discuss the matters of treasury. The Quaestor also bids haste as time is of essence.

The senator rushes himself to the Praetor and shakes hands with him as a sign of respect.

'Hello Praetor Silanus, welcome in my villa, protected by Apollo'

Domina Caecilia and Tiberius' sister arrive to meet with the praetor. Caecilia kissed Silanus hand and bowed before him while Vipsania gave wine to the praetor.

'It's an honour to receive such a respectable man in our house' both women added

Tiberius stepped forward

'What is the reason for such a fine man to come to the house of Dominus Tiberius and domina Caecilia?'

[Lord William]

Aulus smiles and shakes the senator's hand

Such a wonderful family you have senator, you are truly blessed by the gods. I myself have yet to find the time but hope to start in the coming years. Is there somewhere private senator? I wish to speak with you in private on a certain matter.

[Mary The Quene]

Tiberius smiles

'Ofcourse we can, follow me to the garden'

Tiberius along with the praetor walks to the garden, Tiberius orders his slave to dissapear

'So my friend praetor what can i do for you this day?'

[Lord William]

I am starting a political faction within the senate named "Republican", the party represents the dire need of unity amongst senators especially Patrician senators within the senate. The party will act as a guide for senators in the choice support or put down bills on the senate floor. The party will also encourage its members to vote its own members into political offices so that we can shape the destiny of Rome. you be interested in joining such a party?

[Mary The Quene]

Tiberius listens carefully to the man and speaks to the Praetor

'It does seems interesting and i agree that the Patrician senators should unite'

'So if i understand correctly the purpuse of this faction is vote its own members into office and to tackle plebeian influence?'

Tiberius drinks some wine and smiles

'So who is supporting you already or what other senators are you aiming for if i may ask?'

[Lord William]

I am currently in communication with a few other senators but I have received no commitments yet. The process of building this faction will be a long one riddled with hardships I am certain but I am determined to see this idea through to the end. You will see given time the Republican faction will control the senate, and you have an opportunity to apart of it from the ground up.

[Mary The Quene]

Tiberius nods

'Good Silanus, i'm interested in this project. If its the purpose to unite patrician senators and to tackle plebeian influence who am i to refuse this offer?'

Tiberius continues

'Am very glad to join this ambitious group so count me up'

Tiberius stands up and walks with the Praetor in the garden while talking
