Agron is a germanic warrior who was captured by Romans and sold into slavery along with his younger brother, Duro. The two were very close, and were brought by the lanista Quintus Batiatus to train in his ludus. Both brothers earned the mark of the brotherhood at the same time, but it was always Agron who proved to be the stronger fighter. When Batiatus' former champion Crixus was recovering from injuries sustained in his fight with Theocoles, the Doctore Oenamaus paired him up with Duro as a precaution against reopening his wounds. Crixus hated being paired with a weak fighter, and he would bully Duro during training. Agron defended his brother and attacked Crixus, and Oenamaus threatened to send both brothers to the mines if either of them stepped out of line again. From then on, Agron felt a strong hatred towards Crixus, but it was Spartacus who advised Agron not to move against Crixus, to avoid any sort of punishment and ensure the safety of both brothers.It was difficult for Agron to watch his brother suffer at Crixus' hand, but eventually Duro did stand his ground against Crixus, earning the respect of the entire brotherhood. However, Agron continued to upstage his younger brother in the arena, and Duro longed to prove his worth on the sands of the arena without his brother's help, but this was never meant to be.When spartacus began planning his revolt against Batiatus, Agron and Duro were the first to join him. They had a hard time convincing the other gladiators to join their cause, as many gladiators thought of Crixus as the true champion of Capua. When Crixus finally did join in the revolt, Agron and Duro took up arms alongside the brotherhood and began killing Roman guards in the training yard. It was here that Duro met his end at the hands of a centurian - the soldier was about to stab Agron from behind, but Duro took the blow and Agron beheaded the centurian. Duro died in Agron's arms shortly after. His last words were This time, I saved you, brother .After Spartacus killed Batiatus, Agron, Crixus and the rest of the now liberated slaves and gladiators followed Spartacus on his march to freedom. They took to pillaging villas and freeing more slaves to join their cause. Agron soon developed a close relationship with a young Asyrian slaveboy named Nasir. But Agron and Crixus' bitter rivalry would soon resurface. Agron wanted Spartacus to lead the rebels to the safety of Mt. Vesuvius, while Crixus wanted to continue his search for his lover, Naevia, who was banished by Batiatus' wife, Lucretia.Agron and Nasir learned the truth of Naevia's enslavement in the mines, but Agron chose to lie to Crixus, saying that she had died, so that the search for Naevia would be abandoned. It worked, until Nasir, who was heartbroken by Crixus' grief, decided to come clean and told him the truth about Naevia. Crixus attacked Agron, and Spartacus reprimanded Agron for devaluing the life of a single slave. Agron stuck by his plan to lead the rebels to vesuvius, and many oft hem followed him. Nasir chose to aid in the search for Naevia, as he was familiar with the mines. They succeeded in rescuing Naevia, but several gladiators were killed and Crixus was captured by the romans and condemend to execution in the arena.When Spartacus and Agron's groups were reunited, they sought refuge at an abandoned sanctuary at the foot of Mt. Vesuvius. This time, Agron joined Spartacus on his mission to rescue Crixus and Oenamaus from being slaughtered in the arena of Capua. Spartacus and Agron entered the arena disguised as Roman soldiers, while several other rebels set fire to the passage under the stalls. Many Roman citizens were killed in the ensuing chaos, and the arena now lay in ruins as a testament to Spartacus' victory against the Empire.Crixus and Oenamaus were taken to the sanctuary, and Crixus thanked Agron for reuniting him with Naevia, but still blamed him for the lie he told to prevent her rescue in the first place. And so the two men's rivalry continued.When it came time to recruit more warriors to their cause, Agron was eager to liberate his fellow Germanic warriors from a slave ship docking in Neapolis. The warriors proved to be strong, but unruly and Spartacus did not approve of Agron's cocky attitude in taking charge of his fellow countrymen.A fight broke out among the rebels and Germans, and it finished when Spartacus slew the gigantic warrior Sedullus, who was strongest among the Germans. Agron swore loyalty to Spartacus and would consider no man his kin who did not follow. The other Germans commended Spartacus' victory over their strongest warrior, and they all now recognised Spartacus as their true leader. Show less «
