Background:

  One of the characters in the 2nd Deadlands game I played in built a time machine.  

When my then current character was murdered by another player while in the future, 

I had the idea of the time machine overshooting it's return destination.  

They would stumble along a lost Roman Solider from around 75 AD.  

The idea was nixed by the GM, but I liked the concept.  

So, just because it's my damn website and I still think it's a sound idea, here's Maximus.



Inspiration:

  Well, the obvious one is the name from the film "Gladiator" as well as the "face" for the character.  

It wasn't suppose to be the same character as in the movie.  

My perception of the character in the movie was the spring board for my character.  

I had lots of ideas about the "fish out of water" stuff.  

Since he was denied by the GM, not a whole lot of work was done on him.  

Notice the "X" after certain mechanics.  

A level of that advantage or skill hadn't been decided on.
