I am the more astonished that so many thousands of grown men should be possessed again and again with a childish passion to look at galloping horses, and men standing upright in their chariots. If, indeed, they were attracted by the swiftness of the horses or the skill of the men, one could account for this enthusiasm. But in fact it is a bit of cloth they favour, a bit of cloth that captivates them. And if during the running the racers were to exchange colours, their partisans would change sides, and instantly forsake the very drivers and horses whom they were just before recognizing from afar, and clamorously saluting by name. ~ Pliny the Younger (Letters 9.6)

Enroll Your Virtual Charioteer

How to Enroll: Have an entry or two for the next Ludi circenses? Enroll your entries here. The Factio Stables are now open for patronage by all citizens of Nova Roma. We are one of four official Nova Roma racing companies for virtual characters of the Ludi. By entering your chariots and charioteers, we will track your standings in the games. You will also be eligible for the coveted and prestigious Ludi Award Palms and Victory Banners.

Suggestions on Creating Characters: The games are a great way to learn more about Roman history through character creation:

Pick an ancient Roman area (Gallia, Hispania, Thrace, Greece, Egypt, etc.)
Pick a region in that area.
Pick a tribe/town in that region.
Research a little bit about that tribe and it's environment, culture, friends and enemies, industries, etc.
Pick a name for your Gladiator, Chariot, Chariot Driver, and/or Wild Beast for Venationes that is reflective of all of this.
Create a description of your Ludi character from all of this.
When you have some spare time, do it several times again, creating several Gladiators, Chariots, Chariot Drivers, and/or Wild Beasts for Venationes. Remember, just like the real Ludi games, our NR characters get injured and even killed, then you need another one.
As these characters enter and complete, you can improve the descriptions of them, based on their results.
Keep all of your characters in a text file for easy reference.
Register your characters by sending your character information to our Dominus factionis (chariots/charioteers) and Lanista factionis (gladiators/beasts), and we will maintain their career history wins and current points for the year.
