Ides of March

By Claire Bradley & Mary Kilgariff
Players: 20
Genre: Roman
The world is out to
get Julius Caesar.  Scores of people have
different reasons for doing so.  Clodius
wants to take over and become the most powerful man in the world.  He has enlisted the help of his gossiping
sister, Claudia, for this purpose.  He
has black-mailed Caesar because Clodius knows the truth about the Bona Dea
ceremonies.  They worship Caesar and
sacrifice virgins to him.  Clodius dressed
up as a woman to get in to the ceremonies because it’s women only.
Pompey
wants Caesar dead.  Pompey was the
greatest thing before sliced bread but Caesar is now “all that”.  He wants it to change and of course he is man
to succeed him. 
Crassus
is the richest man in the world.  But he
wouldn’t mind being the most powerful as well.
Marcella
is Julius Caesar’s wife.  She has begun
to feel threatened by Cleopatra.  Now
while she definitely wants to kill Cleo, she may or may not stoop to killing
her husband too.  She is in charge of the
Bona Dea and might decide to offer the cult to the successor of her husband who
will probably be Mark Anthony.
