Mark Antony

A great General and commander for both Julius Caesar and Octavian (Augustus) Casear, he was a loyal friend to Julius and soon succumbed to the same charm of Cleopatra as Julius did.  Mark Antony came to Egypt and soon found himself in love (as Cleopatra did).  Ultimately, Cleopatra had Mark Antony's twins, and were married after Mark Antony dennounced his "false" marriage to his co-ruler Augustus' sister Octavia.  War followed and brutally defeated, Antony committed suicide as Augustus' army approached the second time in battle.
