Favorite historical characters who might one day become Servant - 3


Marcus Aurelius

Roman emperor and philosopher of great fame he was a stoic who wrote a book on his personal reflections.  It seems that Marcus Aurelius showed, at least initially, all his reluctance to take charge of imperial power. He must have had a real fear of imperial power (horror imperii), considering his predilection for the philosophical life, but he knew, as a stoic what it was, what he had to do and how to do it.
Although torture and the death penalty were easily applied in Rome especially against slaves and foreigners, the legislation of many "enlightened" emperors sought to reduce the number of crimes punishable by severe penalties.
For Marcus Aurelius, slaves also had to be treated as persons, albeit subordinate, and not as objects, thus avoiding all cruelty and respecting their dignity, unlike Christians who often didn't pronounce themselves in favor of the servile class.
Marcus Aurelius was forced to fight a long and exhausting war against the barbarian populations of the North, first rejecting them and "cleaning up" the territories of Cisalpine and Norian Gaul. A noble emperor, surely, and an exceptional man.
The classes I thought for him are below:
(a note the stars indicate what for me would be the most suitable class for the character. Five stars is the maximum, no star is the minimum.)
. Rider (⭐⭐⭐⭐)
. Caster (⭐)
. Saber (⭐⭐⭐⭐)
. Assassin (-)
. Lancer (-)
. Berserker (-)
. Archer (-)
. Specter (-)
. Devourer (-)
. Ruler (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐)
. Avenger (-)
