Aeneas

Aeneas was a Trojan Hero who escaped Troy during the Trojan War. He found himself wandering the Mediterranean trying to fullfill the Fate's will of founding Rome.

Troy was winning the war against Greece, and Greece decided to give a large wooden horse as peace offering. The Trojans brought the horse inside thier walls and celebrated, for it was the end of a long war. But instead a group of elite Greek fighters, equivalent to today's Seal Team 6, jumped out of the horse and opened the gates to the rest of the Greek forces. The Greeks started to burn and kill everything inside the town, and this is where Aeneas's story begins.

Aeneas was Trojan nobility, a demigod (son of Anchises and Venus), and he became Trojan royalty when he married Creusa who was the Princess of Troy. When Troy was finally invaded, Aeneas got some of his followers together and he developed a plan to escape. He told everyone to meet him at the docks so they could flee. Since Anchises was old, Aeneas carried him on his back, and ran through the streets with his son Ascanius (or iulus) in front of him, and Creusa behind him. When Aeneas finally made it to the docks he turned around to his wife Creusa, and he realized she wasn't there. This greatly upset him so he ran back into Troy screaming her name until he found that there was no hope and she was probably dead.
