So i need some help for a fic I'm writing. Lately, I've been really getting into Spartacus: Blood and Sand. Admittedly, the slow motion with the blood is not that great, but the show itself isn't half bad and I rather enjoy it. And not just for the sexy half naked men Anyway, onto the "help" portion of this thread. For all my fics, I like to find pics to help my readers better picture the character. This is one of the first times ever that I'm having a hard time with finding a picture! There haven't been many shows or movies (that are any good, mind you) that take place in or around the time of Spartacus. The only thing that comes to mind is Rome, so these are the three women of that show that I have it narrowed down to. Vorena: romewiki.wetpaint.com/page/Vorena+The+ElderNiobe: romewiki.wetpaint.com/page/NiobeAtia: romewiki.wetpaint.com/page/Atia+of+the+JuliiThese are just the three I could think of, but I know that there have to be tons of others out there! So, please help me! Either tell me what you think of these three choices or name some others, or both! For a little backstory, my character is Roman and is pretty much middle class, daughter of ludus owner Batiatus. So she shouldn't be someone too fancy looking, which I think is sort of Atia, but neither should she look very poor. Any help is appreciated!

Aw!!! It's Alexa Davalos! I love her! Unfortunately, that's Ancient Greece, not Ancient Rome lol And with the crown piece and all, she looks a little too expensive. The only people who were those were "royalty", like Caesar's family, or people of the Senate. What others do you have?

Yeah, I'm replying to my own reply. Here's some more pictures. Feel free to give me suggestions or add your own. Personally, I think I'm leaning towards Julia and Vorena: Julia of Julius Caesar miniseries: Varinia of Spartacus miniseries: Hypatia of Agoras: Vorena the Elder of Rome:

I just finished all ten episodes today and it has been so hard! Mostly because I have to pause it and write out what everyone is saying and doing and what's going on, etc. lol I hate Batiatus now. I liked him at first, but I hate him for life now. I really like Glaber (mostly because I have a celeb crush on Craig Parker ) and Spartacus, obviously, and Naevia! She's just so sweet!

I am on 5 as I type. I still like Batiatus I don't know why, hes a complete douche, I just can't help it. for he like of me I can't remember names expect for him and Spartacus of course. but I like *as a couple* Batiatcus's wife and the sentor's wife {blonde on blonde, hehe im horrible} the main hot gladiator with the slave girl and....thats it? NO! and the Cupid looking guy

Let me see if I've got your couples right: Batiatcus's wife and the sentor's wife: Lucretia and Ilithyia (who is Glaber's wife and senator's daughter, btw lol)
the main hot gladiator with the slave girl: Crixus and Naevia (I love them, too! I'm so hoping Naevia doesn't get killed off!)
and the Cupid looking guy: VARRO! Right? Am I right? Spartacus' only friend, the big blonde? I LOVE HIM, TOO! *spoiler* I miss him!
