Whom Would You Be In Ancient Rome?

You are the ancient celebrity. You live for the fame, sure, but you also have a death wish. You aren't afraid of confrontation, or a little bit of deadly violence, but your rash attitude only pays off if you win. Luckily, you aren't too worried about losing though. If you lose, you'll be dead, and nothing matters when you're dead.

Publicanus is just a fancy, ancient way of saying tax collector. And while many look at you as the villain or a bully, you know it's better to be on this side of the law than the other, especially in ancient times. You're all about keeping things legit, and you'd never shave a little bit off the top just for yourself, would you?

You're an intellectual and probably smarter than everyone else in the room. That's what makes you the best option to run for a seat in the ancient republic. You look at the big picture and aren't afraid of talking (or arguing) in front of large crowds. Just don't let all the power go to your head, or the Republic might just chop it right off.

You prefer the simple things, like a good day's work and being outside, making you the perfect ancient farmer. While your neighbors are all out discussing the future of the Republic or killing each other at the coliseum, you'll be busy in the fields, sowing the food they're all going to need to survive the debates and the gladiator fights.

You've got great intuition. People might even say you can see the future, or at least give good enough advice for it. And it's a good thing you don't mind getting your hands dirty, because back in ancient times, you'd be one of haruspices. As the high priest in your temple, you'd be gutting animals and using their entrails to see the future for your ancient friends.

You're too creative for the Senate or the temple. You'd be an artisan, most likely a sculptor, hired by said senators and priests to carve their likeness into stone. You can charge them whatever price you want. Better than that, once they're all dead and gone, your work will live on.
