Marcia is a prostitute in a brothel in Capua.

Character Outline

Marcia is a slave and prostitute serving in Capua. She is thin and has long curvy black hair and has beauty enough to attract the eyes of Gannicus.

Vengeance

Marcia first appears in Libertus as the woman Gannicus sleeps with, the night before he is to execute his fellow gladiators. After they are done, Marcia asks about him about his marvelous victories in the arena, saying she wishes she could have gone.

She briefly appears in Chosen Path, bartering with two men who wish to buy her, as Ashur recruits The Murderer into his new group of killers.

Gannicus returns to the city looking for payment, although because he did not complete his job of executing Crixus, Rhaskos and Oenomaus, he only gets a small sum of money. He finds Marcia in the brothel later, although he tells her he does not have enough money to buy her. She coyly responds that he wouldn't need money, and Gannicus asks her to come with him when he leaves the city. Marcia says that she has been thinking of leaving to join Spartacus' rebellion, and that she is not alone in these thoughts. They are interrupted by Ashur, who tells him that Glaber wishes to speak with him.

Gannicus finds Marcia later, strung up and crucified among other slaves in the marketplace, the work of Ashur, who overheard Marcia and Gannicus talking about Spartacus and noticed Gannicus' feelings for her.
