Motive
After rushing back to the senate house, we find an unconscious Claudia. We took her to the hospital, woke her up, and brought her back to our interrogation room, where she told us everything. She said that the rest of our suspects along with the guard, Caius Frigidan, are members of the Ides of March who secretly worked together to get rid of the emperor and named themselves after what historians call the group who killed Julius Caesar. Plagueis wanted Gaius gone because he disagreed majorly with how the emperor ruled and wanted to rule himself. Flavia, whose real identity is Flavia Osborn, the sister of Anika Osborn, despised how Gaius was secretly working with the DPM to arrest Isaac, as the DPM killed her sister who she believes did nothing wrong. Sextus believed that Gaius did not promote Christianity well enough and wanted to change that. Caius was first a loyal supporter of the emperor but soon changed after realizing how horribly he treated his staff. Gaius even threatened to have Caius' whole family executed if he didn't go along with his plans for a mass execution. Lastly, there was Isaac, the leader and brains behind the entire group. Isaac had been planning on killing Gaius ever since he came to New Rome and saw how barbaric his dictatorship truly was. Claudia then said that they forced her to join along with them after finding her in their base. They said that they would protect her from Joanna if she helped them and she reluctantly agreed. However, after they all approached Gaius and begun stabbing him, Claudia decided to not go along with it, so after they managed to find her, they whacked her out and fled New Rome apart from Plagueis, who was being signed into power at this very moment.
Additional Investigation
Since Plagueis is now the emperor of New Rome, he is untouchable, but we try to do our best to catch the rest of the members of the Ides of March. Gaius may have been a horrible person, but he didn't deserve to meet such a gruesome end, stabbing him twenty-three times all over his upper body. However, they are all dead ends and we can't find them anywhere. Claudia then apologizes for leaving us with Joanna and said she went along with her to prove she was somehow innocent, as she refused to believe she was capable of killing so many people. However, after Joanna showed Claudia organs that she kept as treasures, there was no doubt in Claudia's mind and she escaped. Joanna said she would get revenge, but could never kill Claudia. This caused her to flee to the last possible place Joanna would look for her at: New Rome, where she also coincidentally found the team. However, after we hear a familiar scream, we realize that Joanna, surrounded by a group of ten people in black hoodies, had entered New Rome and killed dozens of people. After they found us, Joanna told us to turn ourselves over to her. Zahra shouted, "NEVER!" and after, loads of shooting was heard. After realizing that nobody had been shot, we look up from our trenches and realize that all ten of Joanna's goons had been shot dead and Joanna raised one hand while putting another behind her back anxiously. We then look the other direction and see an old frail man with his fist crumbled raising into the air, causing several snipers behind him to aim their guns to the sky. The old man then pulled out a speakerphone and said, "Joanna Oliver, there is nowhere to run! Just turn yourself in!" Joanna then took her hand from behind her back which showed numerous knives. She then threw them and they all hit the snipers in the forehead, but the old man. We immediately recognized the man as Jovani Gray, the head of the Division of Public Misconduct. He made sure we were all alright before saying that the DPM has been trying to put an end to the Reaper's reign of terror for a while now but that our hard work finally put an end to her reign of terror on Uzibibi once and for all. We then search New Rome for any extra victims and we find out exactly who was screaming before we found Joanna: Alessandra Furfante. We found her in a warehouse stabbed in the forehead like the rest of Joanna's victims. There was also a note pinned to the dagger, saying, "You shouldn't have left me, Claudia!" After Joanna's trial, we decided to talk to her so Claudia could get closure on the whole situation. However, we then heard Zahra panic, before she sent a video in the team's group chat, showing numerous security clips. The first clip was of a guard putting food in Joanna's cell, before Joanna grabbed them from inside the cell and kept bashing the guard against the prison bars until he was dead. Joanna then grabbed the guard's keys from his pocket and unlocked his cell. After killing all the other prison guards effortlessly, Joanna shouted, "We are known as the worst of the worst. The most dangerous of them all! Join me on my conquest or stay locked up here forever!" And just like that, they were gone.
