Bonds
The Warrior Spirit (4 points) - Most of all, Virtus respects the will to rise against a grand challenge. To watch a mortal struggle against impossible odds tooth and nail is his greatest delight.
His Estate (3 points) - The Essence of the Gladiator is a desperate and cruel trade, blood for coin, the precious for the mundane. Duelists fight for honor. A gladiator fights only for survival.
His Imperator (3 points)
His Garden (3 points) - Long ago, Virtus accidentally demolished a garden much cherished by Lord Entropy, one that had been painstakingly cultivated over 208 years. Annoyed, Entropy took Virtus before the Locust Court and decreed Sevenfold Vengeance upon him. For 1456 years, Virtus was imprisoned and tormented, 208 years of fire, 208 years of freezing, etc. The last 208 years he was charged to toil ceaselessly in a garden; each year it was judged against the one he destroyed, and if it was found lacking (which it, naturally, always was), it would be trampled and rooted up by giant boars. In the very last year, it was unworthy as always, but in an uncharacteristic display of generosity, Lord Entropy let it be, moving it to Imperious Ix and giving Virtus the task of watching over it.
Virtus does not know what will happen when the garden he is tending surpasses the one he was imprisoned for destroying. Perhaps Entropy will take it back as payment.
The Code of the Angels (3 points) - The Code served Virtus very well while he was imprisoned, helping him retain his will as his Domain grew away from him and was eroded by outside forces.
Charles Madsen, Anchor (2 points) - Mild-mannered IT head of a textiles firm, Charlie is weak-willed, easily influenced, and basically anti-embodies the Warrior Spirit. Virtus' complete contempt for him is tempered only by the necessity of having a tech on call.
Kostandin, Anchor (2 points) - An Albanian-born pitfighter turned hitman who still engages in the occasional life-or-death bout, despite being quite wealthy. Charming, deadly and bugfuck insane. Virtus loves him dearly.
