Tiro is a slave in the household of Marcus Tullius Cicero. As was customary in ancient Rome, he bears his master's name. Tiro is a handsome young man, roughly twenty-three years old. With exquisite facial features, a slim build and beautiful lavender eyes, Tiro looks more like a young refined gentleman than an ordinary house slave. Tiro is exceptionally well-educated for a slave and his intellect serves to set him apart from other servants.
