THE PLOT The story takes place in Capua, There are those who reside in the city, wealthy, connected, and living an extravagant lifestyle. Others can just barley afford housing and food. And then there are slaves, held under the command of their masters whether they are purchased from lands overseas, or born into their master's home. Among these slaves, are Gladiators. They are trained in a ludus under the command of a Doctore, and under the control of their dominus and/or domina. Those who do not prove to be worthy combatants, are either killed, sent to the pit or mines, or suffer another punishment deemed fit by their master. But for those who do succeed, they are granted the opportunity to fight in the arena; for coin, for fame, for glory.
Such was the way for many years, until one particular Gladiator by the name of Spartacus fought the power that enslaved him and so many others. He rebelled against the hierarchy and started a revolt; one that thousands of others joined. They fought for one cause and one cause only: freedom.
This role play is based on the series Spartacus. There is no set timeline, so threads can take place before, during or after any of the episodes and seasons. We also have an AU board that allows for plots that go against canon events in the show.
