Cartacus is a fighter in The Pit.

Character Outline[]

A fighter in The Pits, Cartacus is fierce in both combat and personality, revealing a sadistic grin whenever excited.

Vengeance[]

Caratacus fought with Oenomaus in The Pit, sometime after his fight with Liberius and many other fighters. For their weapons, Caratacus had drawn "Malleus" (a spiked wooden hammer) while Oenomaus had drawn "Securis" (an axe). Worn out and injured from all his previous matches, Oenomaus is soon disarmed and is about to be beaten to death by Caratacus when Ashur intervenes from outside the 'ring', killing Caratacus with a thrown dagger (along with the pit boss), before abducting Oenomanus to bring him before his new dominus, Gaius Claudius Glaber.
