House of Cato Country: Rome Family Motto:

Origins

The Cato Family has existed for generations as Patricians, and hold themselves in a high regard. Previous Catos have already etched their name into the very brick from which Rome is built on- but their reputation is one of what “has been,” rather than what currently is. Gallius Cato, current family head, isn’t held in the highest of regards by his peers- and Gallius knows it. Every single day Gallius wakes up determined to bring honor and reverence back to the Cato family name- doing so by any means necessary.
