It occurred to me that there exists not a formal introduction message board. I believe it to be necessary for all the major players to commence in this arena and inject their presence at once. Please state your name, your occupation, and any aspirations you may seek. I will commence....

My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius. Commander of the armies of the North. General of the Felix Legions. Loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius...Father to a murdered son......Husband to a murdered wife...........
and I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next.

What we do in life echoes in eternity. Five thousand of my men are out there in the freezing mud. Three thousand of them are bloodied and cleaved. Two thousand will never leave this place. I will not believe that they created accounts and posted for nothing.

I have only one more life to take. Then it is done.

Strength and honor.

My sincerest apologies, from one gladiator to another. You must understand: I have journeyed across the internet to find the men responsible for the deaths of my wife and boy, to hunt the savages who have destroyed my life. I do not have much time...

Alas, I will step aside so that others may establish their mark. I must rest now...

Farewell, for now.

I wonder what happens when he runs out of quotes?

It is inevitable. Yet to you I put forth perhaps a more significant question: what happens when you run out of breath? What is to become of your soul in the afterlife? I have fought countless battles, conquered my enemies, served Rome...... but for what, I ask? You've never had to hold your wife's head in your lap, just to watch her gasp her last breath looking to you for help. Or sew your best friend's stomach shut so that you can give him the proper burial he had always asked of since childhood, when you both imagined that someday, you would grow up to be Gladiators. Or sprinkle a little cinnamon on your nuts and call for your loyal dog, who has been locked in a cage and denied food for a week...

I had a dream. It's coming back to me.....

Hi! 😄 My name is Blue Polka Dot.
I escaped from a mental institution last year.
I like crochet, croquet, and croquettes.
I fly kites in the wind, and engage in lengthy sessions of therapeutic macram?.
I detest vulgar language, and I fucking hate to read.
It's nice to meet you all.

I am a diminutive and charming fellow with a love of art and science. I would rather light a candle than curse the darkness and believe only love can conquer hate. Your questions and comments are welcome.
