Pagans believe that good relations with those gods is critical to maintaining the well-being of the Roman Empire. Unfortunately for them, traditional Roman polytheism has declined massively and is now chiefly a religion of the aristocratic elite, having been eclipsed by Mithraism among soldiers, Sol Invictus among other pagans and Christianity among the commons. +2 to Battles when defending in a siege.

    Confident: This character is very self-assured, brimming with confidence and difficult to shake even under pressure.

    - Sociable: This character is an extroverted social butterfly, capable of making friends left and right. However, they have little time for 'boring' matters like finances, and are more interested in buying flashy things to show off to their friends than managing their wealth. +1 Charisma, -2% income.
    Choleric:
    - Bloodthirsty: This character is hotheaded and loves to jump into fights, lethal or otherwise. This is not something others find endearing off the battlefield, though. +1 Battles, -1 Charisma.

    Default Re: Villa of the Decia

    It was a long ride from his home in Gallia Narbonensis, especially with reorganizing the household of his late brother. Severina was still in mourning and the education of his nephew and niece were a great priority. He arrived at the villa of Decius about a week after the invitation was sent. Aigidius dismounts from his horse with a few additional riders with him, men who were clients of his late brother. He finds a servant and asks where Decius is.
