This emperor claimed that his rise to power was portended by a dream about water flowing from his hands. The Forma Urbis, a massive marble map of Rome, was commissioned by this man. He had the Robin hood-like bandit Bulla Felix killed in the arena and let his son murder the prefect Plautianus. The Praetorian guard was disbanded by this emperor in favor of the Pannonian legions. This husband of Julia Domna won a battle at Isis against Pescennius Niger and crushed the usurper Clodius Albinus at Lugdunum, thus ending a period of civil war begun by the death of Pertinax. For 10 points, name this Roman emperor who was born in Libya and whose sons Geta and Caracalla continued his namesake dynasty.
