(dude, Thesues and Odysseus left so you can play as them... Menaluas, Hector and Paris havent been ioon for ages either... your choice... you can have all the equipment of the hero (IE Persues as Medusa head, winged sandles etc, Daedelus would have wings...)
Perseus dropped from a burning roof and ran to Ajax:
"Where's Hippolyta? There's too many... AJAX, RETREAT DAMN YOU!" Perresus dodged 2 stab thrusts and spotted Hippolyta outside the battle, sprinting towards her but a huge Roman blocked his way!

Perseus crept along the tunnells, he listened... yes, he could hear Ajax! He charged through into a strema of torch light.... and stred into the faces of a Roman century!

*Ajax's men took out the Romans that turned to face Perseus, and then finished off the rest. They ran to Perseus and explained the news* Ajax and Hippolyta have gone off ahead with a squad of men. We need to collapse the tunnels again if we're going to survive.

[I have another question, since you brought up Paris, must I be Greek?You seem to be confronted fighting against Romans, could I be a mortal Roman, legend? Only to enhance the game-play of course.]

Perseus ran on therough the tunneels until he reached Ajax and Hippolya. He grabbed Hippolyta in an embrace and passionately kissed her...
(wasnt Spartacus a Greek?)

[Ok.

Knight, depends on your story. Many different sources claim that Spartacus was a Thracian, enslaved either when captured fighting against Rome, or when captured after being outlawed for mutinying or deserting from the Roman auxiliary forces serving in Macedonia. Either way, he now serves the Romans.]

Spartacus looked onto the burning ruins of Athens. He golden armor carried on it the emblem of a sword; his allegiance to the Roman god of war. His infantry division was regrouping and counting their loses, but the victory instilled with them a new moral. "Apollodorus," he called to his messanger, "where have they run of to?"

"They ran through an underground tunnel that, by our calculations, leads north out of Athens. However the entrances have been collapsed. We have already begun measures to breking through the entrances. We estimate...."

"Halt their progress."

"What?"

"Look behind you, nothing but sea. And to the west stands the already fallen Sparta and Agra states. Corinth has not be taken yet, but Roman occupation is thick and it would be suicide. However there is no Roman occupation to the north, so that is where we shall meet them. Assemble the troops, we head for Megara."

"Yes, general." Apollodorus left the company of Spartecus to instruct the commanders on their new orders. By high noon, the armies were mobilized and ready to be moved.

Perseus held Hippolyta and whispered:

"The Romans will soon have won... we must find an army able to stop him... but wheere can we go that they will not find us?"

Spartacus looked towards the sky and said to himself "Oh god of war, send me a sign of your observance. And the sky turned red, but only to the eyes of Sparacus. The sky tore open and a man on a chariot pulled by hounds stood and pointed towards the north. Spartacus turned in that general direction and began his journey.

"no one knows where the amazon is but me and my women.or we could hide in their land.thats the t place theyed think of."

*Ajax looked around and heard thunder above him* The gods have been angered..We must move, now..*He walked forward and said* By my estimate, we'l be out of these tunnels by nightfall, standing in the woods outside of Megara. We'l warn them and find shelter there..

Night fall was quickly approaching, and Spartecus' soldiers weren't far form the city. He halts them and calls a meeting with his commanders. After drawing shapes and arrows in the dirt to show them their places and movements, he was met with astonished sounds and words of disbelief. "Your crazy, this will never work.....This is preposterous, it's suicide!!!....are you mad?!?!"

"Gentleman please, I know it is unconventianal and has never been before....."

"ever"

"...regardless, I have faith in both the company and their commanders that this will be lead swiftly, and another victory for Rome. Now, feed the men and get some rest, we will need the energy for tomorrow." The meeting was dismissed and everyone went to their designated camps.

*Ajax walked to the end of the tunnels, looking up into a dark, starry sky. He smelled the air* Aaaah..nothing like a fresh breeze to brighten the night..

Spartacus sat in his tent, shifting in his sleep. Remembering of the gladiator fights and of the roman uprising. Join us...He shifted again thinking to himself, "these are my people"....you would make a promising asset to the roman legion, you owe it to yourself.... "Why am I doing this," he was interupted though by a soldier, "Sir, the priest want you to come quick."

Spartacus sighed and walked out of the tent, "what is it now...."

*Ajax heard some voices and looked around. Nothing. He kept a close eye out, and he called the soldiers out to look. They also kept an eye out and heard a snap of a twig. They turned sharply*

Spartacus confronted the priest to meet their gazes of terror and fear. He looked pass them to see that the altar they had built was flooded with blood, but the blood would not touch the ground. Spartacus looked into the pool and saw the face of Mars. He too, was struck with fear.

Assemble your army and attack now, do not wait until apollo raises the sun.

"But Mars, we can not fight in darkness." Immidiatly, the moon was filled with red, and the sky reflected that color. The clouds became dark, and the people surrounding Spartacus we filled with rage and fury. Spartacus seemed the only one sane.

Go now and do not fail me.... The image disappeared and the blood spilled towards his feet till it embodied his entire being. It hardened into black armor which resembled a demon made human. He looked onto Megara and blew into his horn and the men marched towards the city.

Perseus rolled out his camp bed and called to the troops:
"Come, let bus rest, and in the morning, we shall run... regroup in the Amazon, and call upon our reinforcements. We need to elecet guards, I should thinnk at least 50 of them!"

The troops were now less than one hundred kilometers from Megara, and some fell only to be transformed into hound like men with swords and arrows alike. Spartacus remained protected by the armor. He halted the troops and looked onto the city, "Men, go forth with the favor of Mars. And know that tonight, Megara falls to ROME!!!" The men howled into the knight and charged towards Megara. The Priests that were glowing with a red aurora were humming a chant that seemed to keep the men in this frenzy state. Spartecus remained behind on his chariot pulled by hounds the size of horses.
