Name: Cato Dominatus.
Age: 22.
Gender: Male.
Bio: A Roman native from an extremely unlucky family of soldiers(he had six uncles, now he has a single uncle with one eye, a shopteacher's hand, and a wooden leg). He joined the Roman military and served excellently for a few years before being kicked out for repeated fights and disobedience. Dominatus then became a mercenary, but was arrested for murder after he got into a drunken fight with someone and accidentally killed him. He was sent to the arena to become a gladiator, but to Domitianus, that is more of a reward than a punishment. He hopes to become a wealthy and famous gladiator, and would continue to fight even as a rudiarus.

'Fraid I can't promise that. xP

they say "We saw the latest fight, it was amazing"

All right, deal. It's pretty easy not to anger him as long as he hasn't drunk too much, lol.

Uh...has the trainer told him that?

I can see that they're laying on the flattery just a little bit too thick to be plausible, they probably work for the enemy or something, scouting him out or worse. But good ole' Cato has an awfully inflated head and not much inside it, xP

"Thank you," Cato says. "How so?"
