Character Outline

Nothing is known about any of Ilithyia's slaves, with only two being named (Thessela and Amana). Thessela appears in Spartacus: Blood and Sand and plays a minor role, as do her other slaves. She is unfortunately crucified by Glaber in Episode 7: Sacramentum, for no reason other than to inflict more pain on his wife Ilithyia. Before being nailed to the wooden cross, she looks to her Domina for help (as they both know she is innocent of the crimes Glaber brings on her), although she offers none. She is later replaced with yet another slave called Amana.

Another unnamed slave (at left of the picture) is stabbed several times in the neck in Episode 10: Wrath of the Gods, trying to prevent Lucretia from killing Ilithyia, who had gone into labour. Amana is also killed by Lucretia (we hear her scream and Lucretia appears holding a knife, covered in blood) in the same episode.

It is speculated that the actresses who play Ilithyia's body slaves are professional models - this may have been a casting decision by the producers to show the difference in quality of slaves between an upper class Roman woman like Ilithyia and a middle class Roman like Lucretia.


Quotes

Unnamed slave to Ilithyia: "Close eyes, Domina. And replace thought."
