War of the Damned[]
Correus takes part in helping evacuate the Rebels out of the city of Sinuessa en Valle following the attack by Marcus Licinius Crassus and his forces.
When the Rebels are trapped between Crassus' wall and his army, Spartacus leads a daring nighttime surprise attack on the imperator's camp in an effort to kill Crassus himself. He commands that only a small force consisting of "only the most skilled among us" accompany him in the attack. Correus is among this group, indicating that he is a veteran soldier and expert warrior in Spartacus' army. When the attack on Crassus' camp is revealed to be a Roman trap, Correus is forced to fight his way out of the Roman position.
When Spartacus and Crixus eventually decide to take Separate Paths, Correus chooses to stay with Spartacus as opposed to joining Crixus on the war path toward Rome. In the tribute games for Crixus' death, Correus is seen many times sitting in the front row as he enjoys the contests.
