Rules and other things:
Backstory:
In late 768, a man rose up among many members of a Hellenic cult based in Malta. The chaos of the past several decades had stirred up civic and religious unrest. This man, by the name of Pompeius Deorum, wished fervently to restore the Roman Empire. On November 12, 768 he landed 1000 men in Orvieto, quickly overpowering and capturing Alcide de Callaris, the count of Orvieto. He quickly surrendered, and on January 1, 769 Pompeius became the Legatus of Orvieto, further increasing civil unrest. Pompeius' denounciation of the followers of Abraham followed that very day.
Stats: 1.5k troops, around 100 in most abilities, and just about every trait I like.
Misc. Info: "Deorum" is latin for "of the gods" (to justify my making him absolutely amazing, I will call him a demigod)
