Cleopatra
- "The first council has ended. Our problem is clear, our response undetermined. Caesar moves away from the Senate, placing his trust in foreign rulers, adopting the ego and pomp of his Egyptian whore."
- ―Marcus Junius Brutus about Cleopatra's influence on Caesar.[src]
Cleopatra VII Thea Philopator (69 BCE – 12 August 30 BCE) was the last effective Pharaoh of the Ptolemaic dynasty of Egypt. She initially shared power with her father, and later, with her brothers, who she married.[1]
However, she eventually gained sole control with the help of the Templars.[1] Cleopatra then started a liaison with Gaius Julius Caesar.[2]
After Caesar's death, Cleopatra aligned herself with Marcus Antonius, who she also had children with. Antonius eventually committed suicide after losing the Battle of Actium.[1]
Not much later, Cleopatra was poisoned to death inside her palace by a venomous asp used by the Assassin Amunet.[3]
