If Agrippina knew one thing, it’s getting all the attention for her son and making him the number one topic.

Artist’s Note:
I’m actually not sure if Britannicus and Octavia have met Domitius/Nero prior his official public appearance (aka the Trojan Games). One would think that they might have, since they are related and all. However considering that Agrippina and Messalina didn’t like each other very much and Agrippina thus wanted to stay out of the public eye for a while, there’s a high chance that they didn’t.
Therefore for the comic’s “lore” these games will officially be the first time that they see each other. The trio, as it probably went down in history, all knew of each others existence prior to the games, cause adults like to gossip on other family members.

Agrippina minor(Mother of Nero, Niece of Claudius), Ghost Claudius
A little closure to who Rufrius Crispinus is. He was the former Praetorian guard, who lost his job, because Agrippina minor fired him, in order to have Burrus (who owed her a favour) take his place. Rufius is very salty about this and doesn’t like Agrippina much.
Welcome to a new story arc about young emperor Nero and his teenage problems. The story is set in the year 55 AD, where the 17 year old Nero has only been in power for a bit less than a year and struggles to keep up with the demands of being the mightiest man in the Mediterranean.
