Deputy General: In the Name of SPQR

Strike down generals and seize their banners, ruling the world supreme; tame dragons and subdue tigers, who else could do it but me!

This is a true history of clashing armies and political maneuvering, a tumultuous life that blends stirring heroism with deceit and intrigue. The son of a tribal chieftain from the wilds of North Africa, he began his career as a cavalryman in a mere auxiliary unit. After enduring countless trials and hardships, he rose to become Emperor Trajan’s trusted right-hand man, a peerless general capable of taking on entire armies. He even earned his patron’s favor, coming close to reaching the pinnacle of Roman power.

But can he really outmatch Hadrian, a honey-tongued schemer who resents the talented and envies the capable?
