In the golden ages of the Roman Empire, a person's worth was measured almost as much by their quality and quantity of slaves, as they were of any personal worth. Gold rules all, and Slaves cost a hefty bit of gold. As such, it makes sense that members of ruling houses are given tribute through both the currency of gold and the currency of people.

Slaves come in many different shapes and sizes: All with the common trait of being 'not roman'. Some are delicate Persian women, given as whores or handmaidens. Others are the lithe and agile men, suitable for delivering messages and fetching wine. Yet no slave is more sought after or romanticized than a gladiator: for a gladiator is a god in his field. On the sands of the coliseum, a Gladiator is a king, brought for the right to shed blood and gore over the sand in the name of their owner. Entire fortunes have been won and lost on the shoulders of a single gladiator's fight, so the gift of such a noble warrior would obviously be one of great weight.

You'd be a slave - a gladiator and I'd be the Emperor's daughter, your new owner, but when push comes to shove, who's really in charge of whom?
