The Roman Empire stretches the length and breadth of the known world. The sons of Gods, the Emperors themselves, ascend to Godhood upon their death. And so it is the Emperor Antonivs has this day reached this lofty ideal. Feasts and festivals originall meant to celebrate the 25th birthdays of Antonivs' twin daughters will now mourn his passing and celebrate his transition into Godhood. The Imperial Family and selected members of the Senate gather to show their respects. But they ask themselves, who will be the next Emperor? For there was no clear line of succession.   Come to the great days of Rome - Where men were real men, women were real women, and small persian cats from lower Pompeii were real small persian cats from lower Pompeii.

A single session Freeform for 15-22 players set in Rome before the fall.
