Affectionately known as "Passer" by his team-mates, mostly, it must be said, because of his annoying habit of passing wind, which is so noxious that it normally knocks out the snotlings stationed behind him, this then has the unfortunate side effect of keeping him stationary for much of the match.

Recentley, however, he has been earning the name Passer because of his surprising Agilty, surprising for a troll anyway, and when paired up with Commodus can wreak many kinds of terror. Unfortunately his dedication to the passing game has left him a bit soft and thus finds it hard to knock down stunties, never mind the other big guys on the opposing team. Still at least he has never eaten a snotling. (YET)

Nero, last of the Julio-Claudians, had been placed in the difficult position of absolute authority at a young age coupled with the often-contradictory efforts of those in a position to manipulate him. Augustus, however, had not been much older when he began his bid for power, and so a great deal of the responsibility for Nero's conduct must also rest with the man himself. Nero's reign was not without military operations (e.g., the campaigns of Corbulo against the Parthians, the suppression of the revolt of Boudicca in Britain), but his neglect of the armies was a critical error. He left Rome not to review his troops but to compete in Greek games, and as a further slight had left a freedman, Helius, in his place at Rome to govern in his absence. The suspicion which surrounded him after the treason trials and the conspiracy set the stage for a series of civil upheavals, "the Year of the Four Emperors," which included the rise to power of men, such as Otho in Lusitania and Vespasian in Judaea, whom Nero himself had sent to the frontiers, unaware that they were to become his successors.
