TIBERIUS, Portia’s Uncle, is the Roman Governor of the Egyptian port city of Alexandria. A consummate politician, Tiberius discharges his duties with cold, ruthless efficiency, whether it’s collecting taxes, putting down rebellions or ferreting out fugitive rebels.
Tiberius’s coldness carries over into his relationship with Portia. Though he is her guardian, he shows little interest in her or her friends and consequently, Portia drifts away from him and all things Roman.
At the end of Series One, Tiberius’s politicking pays off and he is given a plum assignment: helping to lead the siege of Jerusalem. After Jerusalem falls, Tiberius takes yet another step up the ladder - a job as prefect in Rome.
A vain man, Tiberius is seldom without his precious hand mirror.
