Primus Albus

Roman military leader who fought and earned fame in the Black Winter War.

Perhaps better known for his treasonous mutiny during the fall of Kalkriese, where he led a group of german tribesman and mutinous slaves in open combat against Legate Marcus Manlius. He subsequently fled into the German North Woods, where he evaded capture for several years. He was at last captured for ransom by the Arquemi leader Segestes.

Upon his return to Rome he was paraded in chains before Tiberius in the Kalkriese Triumph. On that same fateful day, he disgracefully commited suicide by poison before he could be judged in Gladatorial combat.
