#Probus
Text
Coin minted ca. 280 CE by the Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius Probus (r. 276-282). Probus is shown in the company of Sol Invictus ("Unconquered Sun"), a late form of the solar deity whose worship had been promoted by Probus' predecessor Aurelian. The birthday of Sol Invictus (Dies Natalis Solis Invicti) was traditionally celebrated on Dec. 25. On this coin, Probus, who was constantly on campaign during his brief reign, is shown prepared for battle with shield and spear, alongside Sol Invictus, who wears his characteristic radiant crown. Now in the National Museum of Denmark, Copenhagen. Photo credit: ChrisO/Wikimedia Commons.

Medallion of the emperor Probus
Obverse depicts Jugate busts of Sol and Probus, Probus holds transverse spear and a shield decorated with an Adlocutio, or "addressing the troops scene", which itself a design that is used on Roman coinage. Legend reads "IMP C PROBVS INVIC P F AVG"
Struck 276-282
Reverse depicts the three Monetae standing left, holding cornucopiae and scales, Legend reads "MONETA AVG"
Out of the many 3rd century medallions that have this reverse type, this is probably my favorite. There is an argument to be made that Probus had the most diverse and interesting coinage of the third century crisis, only to be topped in my opinion by the separatist emperor Postumus.

Tauchten's top forensic experts have placed Probus the Pained at Movus' Keep when the Smoke King was freed. Movus officials have declined to comment on the matter. Ursus Ragel, the Bear King has blacklisted Probus from Ursbahn and is urging neighboring kingdoms to do the same.

Well, the Services Archaeology and Heritage Association, which stole my Probus post for its Facebook page, has opted, rather than owning up to its misdeed, to hide mine and all other comments pointing out the theft. There's not much more that I can do, and I suppose it doesn't really matter in the long run, but if anyone else follows the SAHA, just be aware that they're A-OK with the brazen theft of other people's work.
Sigh.

The Rise and Fall of The Praetorian Guard
THE PRAETORIAN GUARD WERE AN ELITE UNIT WITHIN THE IMPERIAL ARMY, SERVING PRIMARILY AS PERSONAL PROTECTORS AND INTELLIGENCE OPERATIVES FOR THE ROMAN EMPERORS.
The roots of the guard can be found during the Roman Republic, when soldiers served as protectors for Roman generals and important figures, or as elite guards for military praetors.
High-ranked generals with imperium held public office by serving as a magistrate or promagistrate. They were assigned a civil servant, lictors, to serve as an attendant and bodyguard. Where no personal bodyguard was assigned, senior field officers safeguarded themselves with temporary bodyguard units of selected soldiers.
Around 40 BC, Octavian, who would later become Emperor Caesar Augustus, installed praetorians within the pomerium (a religious boundary around the city of Rome), the first example of troops being permanently garrisoned in Rome proper.
Members of the guard accompanied Augustus on active campaigns, protecting the civic administrations and rule of law. At camp, the cohors praetoria (a cohort of praetorians guarding the commander), were posted near the praetorium, the tent of the commander, which the guard is believed to be named after.
After the construction of Rome’s Praetorian camp known as the Castra Praetoria around 23 BC, their role extended to escorting the emperor and the members of the imperial family, and to serve as a policing force during times of riot.
According to the Roman historian and politician, Tacitus, the guard around this time numbered nine Praetorian cohorts (4500 men, the equivalent of a legion), however, an inscription from near the end of Augustus’s rule suggests that their numbers were briefly increased to twelve.
The Praetorian Guard, like all legionaries, shared similar insignia, mainly on their shields. Praetorian Guard shields included wings and thunderbolts, referring to Jupiter, and also uniquely included scorpions, stars and crescents.
The first military engagement of the Praetorian Guard took place during the mutinies of Pannonia and the mutinies of Germania. Drusus Julius Caesar, son of Tiberius, accompanied by two Praetorian cohorts, the Praetorian Cavalry, and Imperial German Bodyguards, suppressed the mutinies of Pannonia. Germanicus, later known as Germanicus Julius Caesar, led a force of legions and detachments of the Praetorian Guard in a two-year campaign in Germania against the uprising.
In the three centuries that followed, the guard influenced imperial politics by overthrowing emperors and proclaiming the successor. Members of the guard were also directly involved in the assassination of emperors, such as: Aurelian, Balbinus, Caligula, Caracalla, Commodus, Elagabalus, Galba, Pupienus, Pertinax, Philip II, and Probus.
In AD 305, Diocletian and Maximian abdicated, and the former Caesares, Constantius and Galerius became Augusti. Although two sons of emperors, Constantine I and Maxentius were eligible, they were passed over for a new tetrarchy, and Valerius Severus and Maximinus Daza were appointed Caesars.
Severus planned to disband the Praetorian Guard on the orders of Galerius, resulting in the guard giving their allegiance to Maxentius and proclaiming him emperor. By AD 312, Constantine I marched on Rome with a force of 40,000 soldiers to eliminate Maxentius, facing off against an army that encompassed the bulk of the Praetorian Guard garrisoned in Rome at the Battle of the Milvian Bridge on the River Tiber.
Contemporary accounts record Maxentius’s forces being pushed back against the river and retreating across the bridge. The weight of soldiers fleeing caused the bridge to collapse, stranding elements of the guard on the northern bank of the river who were either killed or taken prisoner.
Lucius Caecilius Firmianus, a Christian author and advisor to Constantine recorded the events: “The bridge in his rear was broken down. At sight of that the battle grew hotter. The hand of the Lord prevailed, and the forces of Maxentius were routed. He fled towards the broken bridge; but the multitude pressing on him, he was driven headlong into the Tiber [drowned].”
Maxentius’ body was fished out of the Tiber and decapitated, and his head was paraded through the streets of Rome. Supporters of Maxentius were eliminated and the Praetorian Guard and Imperial Horse Guard were disbanded. The remaining guard were sent in exile to the corners of the empire, and the Castra Praetoria was dismantled in a grand gesture that marked the end of the Praetorians.

بدلاً من ذلك ، أنتِ بحاجة إلى أن تكوني نجد المسبار الصحيح للطبقة الطبقية الصحيحة ، للسماح بالعبور إلى المركز ، واثقة بخطواتكِ نحو الصفر.
Instead, you need to be finding the right probe for the right stratification, to allow crossover to the center, confident of your steps to zero.

Bunun yerine, sıfıra adım attığınızdan emin olarak merkeze geçişe izin vermek için doğru tabakalandırma için doğru probu bulmanız gerekir.

Hey Fellow speculative biology nerd, What are the social practices of Phonies and Palindromes? Are they more solitary, do they group up and build settlements, or something else? +How do they feel about others of their species/subspecies/the other species in the world?
Both phonies and palindromes are divided into behavior mostly on size. Large individuals tend to be more migratory and smaller ones are more sedentary. The migratory ones are referred to as "drifters" on here, though you probably know them as t. katharsis ssp. probus, and the sedentary ones are referred to as "socials" which roughly aligns behaviorally with t. katharsis ssp. laetus in the ARPG.
Drifter individuals live in smaller groups, can hunt for food and move around a lot. They don't raise their own offspring typically but are often followed around by orphans that they pick up on their travels. They frequently meet others as they move around, but they're more casual bonds that aren't guaranteed to stay forever. Their style of dress is simple like belts and harnesses because they live in open spaces and tend to flip sides more than socials, so they need to wear things that will stay on if they do that. (This is of no concern for phonies, because they don't flip anyways)
Social individuals live in larger groups, usually forage for food and stay in the same place. They raise their own offspring typically and live in groups often comprised of other family members or mating partners. They will most often interact with their immediate grouping and tend to approach others as a group too. Unless they're kicked out of married off into another group, they may stay in it for their whole life. Their style of dress is more elaborate and less symmetry-dependent because these guys often inhabit spaces too crowded to flip easily, and are prone to losing their symmetry. These guys build settlements more often than drifters.
Drifters don't usually build settlements as they're always on the move and don't mind the elements anyways, but socials have a couple of architecture styles but they're quite simple. Hill figures, simple mounds of earth to border territory, walls and caves are common places to live. Palindromes don't really care about having a roof over their head because they enjoy getting wet and also like to be able to see as far as possible, and being sheltered kind of removes that. So, settlements are exclusively to claim territory and not to take shelter from the elements. They make great landscapers, though!
Palindromes are typically wary of small, fast animals because they have limited mobility and a blind spot by their side. Frequently, they get ectoparasites where they can't reach. What constitutes a cute animal for them is something that moves slowly if at all, and is large. So, they love tents! Grassland palindromes, who live alongside them, like tents especially. They'll mark their territory lines to include a figurehead tent who sort of becomes the mascot of their group.
Phonies are quite fast and palindromes are a little bit wary of them too. They've pushed the now-extinct other palindromes out of their historical niches when they first appeared. Funnily enough, the only animal in the triplostoma genus that wasn't affected by the appearance of phonies was t. katharsis itself, the generalist variety which phonies are derived from.
