Character Outline
Vibius is of average height, appears to be middle-aged and has short-curly blonde hair. He wears an attire akin to someone of his status, but has a more humble feel to him.
Blood and Sand
Vibius is a lanista from Capua. He is not held in high esteem by other lanistas or gladiators, such as Solonius, Batiatus and Crixus.
Batiatus was planning to sell Crixus to him as it was believed that Crixus would fare better in the lower classed fights to allow him to recover. Crixus, however, saved Spartacus from death and as a result the deal was severed. Despite Ashur's warnings of the deal already having been done Batiatus dismisses it as nothing.
Quotes
Naevia (to Crixus): "Ashur has been sent to market for herb; and to question Vibius on his interest toward you." Crixus (in response): "Vibius, a master of shits and mongrels."
