"Do you know what you've done? Caesarion would have sat on the throne of Rome."
―Cleopatra to Amunet, after the murder of Caesar, 44 BCE.[src]
Caesarion in 44 BCE

Ptolemy XV Philopator Philometor Caesar (fl. 47 BCE – 30 BCE), better known as Caesarion (Latin: Little Caesar), was the last Pharaoh of Ptolemaic Egypt. He was the eldest son of Queen Cleopatra, and the alleged and thus only biological son of Roman consul Gaius Julius Caesar, after whom he was named.

Biography

He was the final member of the Ptolemaic dynasty of Egypt, who reigned jointly with his mother, from 2 September 44 BCE to 12 August 30 BCE, when Cleopatra died. His death was ordered by Octavian, Caesar's great-nephew and official heir, who would become the Roman emperor Augustus.

However, after Aya convinced the besieged Cleopatra that the best way to save Egypt was to take her own life, the Queen asked the Hidden One to protect and train Caesarion. Aya gave her word and took the young man with her back to Rome.

In 2012, he was included in a mnemonic set in Abstergo Industries' Project Legacy.
