Glory on the Sands - (Gladiator-centric, gratuitous sex and violence expected)

[Amarlo]

Do you have a rule on imagery/facelcaims?

[Deamonbane]

Nothing too restrictive, though E rules obviously apply. Facelaims are not required, though they are helpful. I'd ask for no anime images for characters, and to avoid overly modern images. Other than that, have at it.

Added the question and answer to the FAQ tab for reference :D

Edit: Oh, and unless there are twins involved and agreed upon beforehand, we're going to be respecting facelaims and reservations.

[Amarlo]

Which reminds me, if anyone wants to play a sibling to my character (Note she's to be skilled slave character) I'd be more than happy! So in the case you find yourself interested, feel free to pm me. ^^

Fausta

Fausta

Name:  Fausta. The Viper

Gladiator Style: Dimachaerus

Age:  29

Personality:  Fausta is a woman who is slow to trust. Those outside the Ludus typically get the cold shoulder, her fellow fighters get a tough sort of love. The weak will not last and Fausta knows that. She had seen the rise and fall of others and learned from the triumphs and failures she had witnessed. Underneath her somewhat cool detached exterior Fausta is a woman with a gentle if tired laugh and an unwavering loyalty to those she calls friend.

Appearance: Not striking in size Fausta stands at 5'6" with long dark hair and bright blue green eyes. Her build is lean but strong, toned from the years of fighting and training behind her. Scars from past battles are few, mostly on her arms. The most visible is the scared brand that marks her as a gladiatrix of Gracchus.

Face Claim:  Eva Green

Short Biography: 

• From "North of Rome" as Fausta describes it.
• Had an older brother who is the only family she can remember.
• Was brought to Rome as a slave along with her brother but sold separately
• Something in her was seen and she began training as a gladiatrix
• After two years Fausta became House Champion and has held the position for the past six months

Sexuality:  Hetrosexual

Stats:
Attack:12
Defense:12
Health:12

Other Info: Fausta is the name given to her by the Romans meaning Lucky.

Aurelia Gracchus

Name: Aurelia Gracchus (Daughter of the Gracchus family)

Age:  20

Occupation: Family party organizer

Personality:  Aurelia Gracchus, is by far, a terrible human being. She thoroughly enjoys annoying and sexually frustrating and tormenting the slaves and gladiators that belong to her family. The plus side to being harassed by her is that the people she harasses get better things. Better beds, showers, food, medicine, anything that will keep them happy. Especially if they keep her sexually satisfied, they will be treated like gold. She is fiercely loyal to her family, but has a rather dark dry wit that makes her come off rude and her perverted nature makes most of her words crude and hard. More than anything, she is a party animal that glows when she throws the perfect party.

Appearance:

• '5'5''
• 110 lbs, thin but with perky body
• Has her body painted regularly, so will have random art all over her body
• Long honey brown hair that is usually up in the latest fashion
• Amber eyes that are piercing but beautiful

Face Claim:  Rachel Weisz, Hypatia in Agora

Short Biography: Aurelia is a daughter in the Gracchus family, like most woman in Rome, not much was expected of her for power or really a job. Instead, she worked close with her mother and other high class woman and became one of the best party organizers. Throwing parties that made them the envy of the higher class of Rome. Eventually, she was asked to help with other parties, including some very serious people. She loves party as it really the only place she can be herself and it not be really frowned upon or unexpected.

Sexuality: Mostly straight, while she does prefer men, she has no problem with females or sex with them. She is also pretty dominate, but she loves power play between her and the gladiators who seem to be the only ones willing to attempt to put her in her place. All while females usually just do what she says and keeps her in the more dominate position.

Other Info: Aurelia would love a twin brother who is similar to her if possible.

[Deamonbane]

Looks good! If you could just PM her to me, so I can keep track?

Four years later she's gained experience through trial and error, but her instinctive appreciation of the gladiators and her loyalty to the house have proven her worth many times over.

Sexuality: Bisexual and liberal in her appetites. Does not appreciate being abused and will reward the absence of brutality with generousity.

Other Info:  Not a free-for-all kind of slave, since she is indeed needed in the house for more than her cunt.

Health: 12

Other Info:  Sextus likes to humiliate, beat and rape his female slaves and watch his gladiators do the same.  This could be to punish the slaves, to reward the gladiators or to amuse an audience.  He also likes to see gladiatrixes fight, but the loser suffers a fate other than death.
