Joaquin Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 (edited) Characters: HECTOR Application | Body-slave to Tertius Quinctilius Varus Hector is an Anatolian Greek slave, he's a brown-noser, likes to think he's above other slaves out of a mixture of vanity and internalised classism. He's athletic, a typical young man and interested in the same things every cardboard cut-out of a 22-year old man is, but also interested in "feminine" things like fashion, beauty, self-care. RANDOM PLOT IDEAS Ain't got no shit here. Open to anything. RELATIONS/ASSOCIATIONS Tertius Quinctilius Varus - master Charis - fellow slave Teutus - fellow slave + master's son VALERIA FLACCA Application | Matron, Muscian, and Poet (including pseudonym of 'Landicus') Valeria is the daughter of a senator (Publius Valerius Flaccus). While she has circulated works under her own name, she has a whole secret career revolving around dick jokes and incredibly bizarre and obscene poems (all done to shock stuffy Romans) under the character of a raunchy old man named Landicus. RANDOM PLOT IDEAS Roman ladies' night out (or in), like a crazy hen party of ancient Rome, lots of wine and silliness without the husbands/male lovers. Poetic protégé, taking a younger woman interested in poetry under her wings. If not poetry, music could be another option. RELATIONS/ASSOCIATIONS Titus Sulpicius Rufus - husband Quintus Sulpicius Rufus and Scipiones, brother- and sister-in-laws Nymphia - slave Edited December 9, 2019 by Joaquin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sara Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 (edited) So we already have Charis and Hector fun but a couple of options for Valeria, @Joaquin: Longinus is good friends with Titus, and is actually currently having a drink and laugh with him in their domus right now. He's also a widower so would probably be welcome to female advice on potential new spouses. Vibia is a freedwoman, but also a prostitute at the Venus. As well as somebody who probably enjoys her poems, she's also a very skilled musician and plays the cithara. Wealthy Romans who have seen her play (usually at the Venus) have hired her out before for parties to entertain. There's a chance if Valeria has attended a party where Vibia is playing they could bond over mutual love of music and bawdy jokes. She's not a particularly pleasant woman, but quite good fun.

Joaquin Posted December 10, 2019 Author Share Posted December 10, 2019 @Sara I love both of those ideas, they're great! I'll be hitting you up on Discord late tonight! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 Definitely think a Sestia and Valeria connection would be in order! Sestia is a senators daughyer, recently widowed and a lover of arts, music and fun now she’s been (temporarily) liberated from patriarchal control!
