Virgil

Virgil is regarded as being the greatest of Rome's ancient poets as well as statesman and historian. Born Publius Vergilius Maro, 'Virgil' came from a somewhat well-to-do family of traditional Roman stock. He was clearly educated and in time proved himself to be a talented and inspired artist.
Rumor persisted throughout his life that Virgil's conception was unique, and that Jupiter Himself had a hand in it. According to the most common tale, Jupiter gifted Virgil's mother with a cup of wine sprinkled with flakes of gold to ensure that she would give birth to a strong child. 
== Facts: ==
-Virgil lived during the tumultuous events of Rome's civil wars. This era preceeded the Augustan Age when Rome was united under the Cesearean style monarchy. Virgil himself was witness to the Roman infighting between Julius Caesar and Pompey Magnus. 
-Virgil was hyper-religious, and he was uniquely devoted to Jupiter, the chief god and founding deity of the Roman city-state. This strong devotion sent Virgil straight into the ranks of the Order of Infinity. 
-Virgil steadfastly believed that Rome had a divinely appointed mission to bring civilization to a world lost in barbarism and anarchy. 
-Virgil's creative talent and knack for poetry caused him to rise through the ranks of Rome' elite rather quickly. By the time of his death from an illness, Virgil was on a first name basis with Caesar Augustus himself, Emperor of Rome. 
-Virgil's chief work is clearly the Aeneid, an epic poem following the events of the Trojan War from Homer's Iliad and follows the story of Rome's founding. 
-Virgil was regarded as possessing supernatural traits, including precognition and prophecy. This was obviously from him developing gifts while he used Holy Names, but for the Uninitiated, Virgil came to be regarded as a sorcerer. 
-In Dante's Divine Comedy, it is Virgil who appears to Dante to aid him on his journey through Heaven and Hell. Virgil purports to have been sent by the 'Most High' and is seen to possess great power equal to even that of Greater Demons.
