Commodus (Latin: Marcus Aurelius Commodus Antoninus Augustus; 31 August 161 – 31 December 192), was Roman Emperor from 180 to 192. He also ruled as co-emperor with his father Marcus Aurelius from 177 until his father's death in 180. His name changed throughout his reign; see changes of name for earlier and later forms. His accession as emperor was the first time a son had succeeded his father since Titus succeeded Vespasian in 79. Commodus was the first (and up until 337 the only) emperor "born in the purple"; i.e., born during his father's reign.
Commodus was born on 31 August AD 161, as Commodus, in Lanuvium, near Rome. He was the son of the reigning emperor, Marcus Aurelius, and Aurelius' first cousin, Faustina the Younger. Commodus had an elder twin brother, Titus Aurelius Fulvus Antoninus, who died in 165. On 12 October 166, Commodus was made Caesar together with his younger brother, Marcus Annius Verus. The latter died in 169, having failed to recover from an operation, which left Commodus as Marcus Aurelius' sole surviving son. He was looked after by his father's physician, Galen, in order to keep Commodus healthy and alive. Galen treated many of Commodus' common illnesses. Commodus received extensive tuition at the hands of what Marcus Aurelius called "an abundance of good masters." The focus of Commodus' education appears to have been intellectual, possibly at the expense of military training.

Sentenced to spend out the rest of his adult life laboring in the harsh deserts of Egypt, the Thracian slave Spartacus gets a new lease on life when he is purchased by the obese owner of a Roman gladiator school. Moved by the defiance of an Ethiopian warrior, Draba, Spartacus leads a slave uprising which threatens Rome's status quo. As Spartacus gains sympathy within the Roman Senate, he also makes a powerful enemy in form of Marcus Lucinius Crassus, who makes it a matter of personal honor to crush the rebellion.

Maximus is a powerful Roman general, loved by the people and the aging Emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Before his death, the Emperor chooses Maximus to be his heir over his own son, Commodus, and a power struggle leaves Maximus and his family condemned to death. The powerful general is unable to save his family, and his loss of will allows him to get captured and put into the Gladiator games until he dies. The only desire that fuels him now is the chance to rise to the top so that he will be able to look into the eyes of the man who will feel his revenge.

The Gladiator Who Defied An Empire
Summer 2000 A.D.
A general who became a slave. A slave who became a gladiator. A gladiator who defied an emperor.
[Maximus looks at images of his wife and son]::Juba: Can they hear you?::Maximus: Who?::Juba: Your family. In the afterlife.::Maximus: Oh yes.::Juba: What do you say to them?::Maximus: To my son - I tell him I will see him again soon. To keep his heels down while riding his horse. To my wife... that is not your business.
Gracchus: I don't pretend to be a man of the people. But I do try to be a man for the people.
Marcus Aurelius: Are you ready to do your duty for Rome?::Commodus: Yes, father.::Marcus Aurelius: You will not be emperor.::Commodus: Which wiser, older man is to take my place?::Marcus Aurelius: My powers will pass to Maximus, to hold in trust until the Senate is ready to rule once more. Rome is to be a republic again.::Commodus: Maximus?::Marcus Aurelius: Yes. My decision disappoints you?::Commodus: You wrote to me once, listing the four chief virtues: Wisdom, justice, fortitude and temperance. As I read the list, I knew I had none of them. But I have other virtues, father. Ambition. That can be a virtue when it drives us to excel. Resourcefulness, courage, perhaps not on the battlefield, but... there are many forms of courage. Devotion, to my family and to you. But none of my virtues were on your list. Even then it was as if you didn't want me for your son.::Marcus Aurelius: Oh, Commodus. You go too far.::Commodus: I search the faces of the gods... for ways to please you, to make you proud. One kind word, one full hug... where you pressed me to your chest and held me tight. Would have been like the sun on my heart for a thousand years. What is it in me that you hate so much?::Marcus Aurelius: Shh, Commodus.::Commodus: All I've ever wanted was to live up to you, Caesar. Father.::Marcus Aurelius: [Marcus Aurelius gets down on his knees] Commodus. Your faults as a son is my failure as a father. Come::[Gives Commodus a hug]::Commodus: [Commodus hugs Marcus and cries] Father. I would have butcher the whole world... if you would only love me!::[Commodus begins to asphyxiate Marcus while they hug, Marcus grunts]
Marcus Aurelius: You have proven your valor once again, Maximus. Let us hope for the last time.::Maximus: There is no one left to fight, sire.::Marcus Aurelius: There is always someone left to fight. How can I reward Rome's greatest general?::Maximus: Let me go home.::Marcus Aurelius: Ah, home.
Cassius: On this day, we reach back to hallowed antiquity, to bring you a recreation of the second fall of the mighty Carthage!... On the barren plain of Zama, there stood the invincible armies of the barbarian Hannibal. Ferocious mercenaires and warriors from all brute nations, bent on merciless destruction, conquest. Your emperor is pleased to give you the barbarian horde! [Crowd cheers]::Maximus: [while Cassius continues his introduction] Anyone here been in the army? [an unknown gladiator responds yes and tells Maximus he served under his command at Vindobona] You can help me. Whatever comes out of these gates, we've got a better chance of survival if we work together. Do you understand? If we stay together we survive.::Cassius: I'm pleased to bring to you the Legionnaires of Scipio Africanus!
Gracchus: The Senate is the people, sire. Chosen from among the people, to speak for the people.
Maximus: You don't find it hard to do your duty?::Cicero: Sometimes I do what I want to do. The rest of the time, I do what I have to.
Commodus: Your Emperor asks for your loyalty, Maximus. Take my hand, I only offer it once.
Gracchus: He enters Rome like a conquering hero. But what has he conquered?::Falco: Give him time, Gracchus. He's young, he may do very well.::Gracchus: For Rome? Or for you?
Lucilla: Today I saw a slave become more powerful than the Emperor of Rome.
Plot
