PDF

Character Bio:

Tetraites was a renowned gladiator in Rome, celebrated for his brutality and skill in the Coliseum. His fame grew so rapidly that Caesar himself would often attend his matches. Tetraites, however, cared little for the approval of Caesar, his ego satisfied instead by the mixture of respect and fear that filled the eyes of his doomed rivals. Time and time again, Caesar would gesture for Tetraites to spare his opponent when they were at his mercy, but Tetraites' ruthless nature would not be restrained. Spurred on by the roar of the crowd, Tetraites deliberately ignored Caesar's signal, finishing his opponent with a single skull-crushing blow from his mighty hammer.

Reluctant to lose the entertainment of his favorite gladiator, for some time Caesar was willing to overlook Tetraites' defiance. But the emperor's favor is a fickle thing, and eventually Caesar could no longer suffer such flagrant contempt for his authority to continue. Following yet another of Tetraites' merciless executions, Caesar called for Tetraites' head, and the gladiator's sudden rise to fame was about to be cut short. But it was at this moment that Utgar summoned him to Valhalla, where Tetraites would once again find glory in Taelord's Coliseum. In this strange new land, the vicious gladiator is eager to spill the blood of not just man but elf, dwarf, beast, and giant alike. His name will be known, his name will be feared, his name is Tetraites.
