Sobriquet
Appearance
Julia is an aging cougar whose dark hair is shot through with white, save when she
darkens it with dyes. Despite giving birth to five children, she is still physically
fit and more sexually active than ever. Even in exile she dresses well in silk dresses
and the best jewelry available.
Behavior
Julia is extremely well educated and familiar with all the classic works of both philosophy
and literature. She is also politically active, but influences events from behind the scenes
through her stable of affluent and politically connected lovers. In person, Julia is flirtatious
and playful, acting decades younger than she actually is, nor is this an act as she genuinely
enjoys her men and the games that they play. She is remarkably skillful at seduction and
often uses sex as a weapon. But there are two men she detests, her father Augustus and her
third husband Tiberius who was a disappointment in the marriage bed. Believing herself
above prosecution she took every opportunity to shame Tiberius by flaunting her peccadilloes,
which embarrassed her father and ultimately led to her banishment. None of this has stopped
her from her amorous pursuits, rather it has whetted her appetite for revenge, which she
plots from her island prison.
History
Julia the Elder (30 October 39 BC-14 AD) was the daughter of the Roman emperor
Augustus and the stepsister and second wife of Tiberius.
Julia was the daughter of Octavian and his wife Scribonia, and she was betrothed to Mark Antony's
son Marcus Antonius Antyllus before the engagement was called off due to the start of Antony's Civil War
with her father.
In 25 BC, at the age of fourteen, she married her cousin Marcus Claudius Marcellus, who was considered as
Augustus' likely heir until his death in 23 BC. In 21 BC, she remarried to Augustus' friend and general
Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa, who was 25 years older than her; she had five children with him: Gaius Caesar,
Julia the Younger, Lucius Caesar, Agrippina the Elder, and Agrippa Postumus.
After the death of Agrippa in 12 BC, she remarried to Augustus' stepson Tiberius in 11 BC. She felt that
her marriage was unequal, and she denounced her husband to her father in a letter. She separated with her
husband in 6 BC, and, in 2 BC, she was arrested for adultery and treason. Reluctant to exile her, Augustus
sent her into exile to an island off the coast of Latium, and she was moved to Rhegium on the mainland in
4 AD.
While living in a villa at Antium, she began an affair with her son Lucius' friend Gaius Plautius Silanus,
whom Empress Livia hired to spy on Julia and discover her infidelities, causing Augustus to banish her from
Rome.
Recent Events
Julia has kept in close contact with her circle of lovers and admirers in Rome
and understands that the disastrous Battle of Teutoburg Forest is an opportunity
for both herself and her son. She has been in contact with Agrippa's father and
has received his aid in her quest for revenge.
Her Fate
She is destined to die on a small, rocky island in 14 AD, just after Augustus' death.
