Erixo is remembered as a Roman father whose cruelty knew no bounds, having whipped his own son to death. His actions provoked the fury of the multitude, and only the intervention of the emperor spared him from their justice.

Description

Erixo is an adult Roman male, with a stern and severe countenance. He wears the simple tunic and cloak of a Roman citizen, his posture rigid and unyielding. His features are harsh, with a strong jaw and deep-set eyes that convey both authority and cruelty.
