Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What rival tribe repeatedly attacked Spartacus's village ultimately giving reason to "reluctantly" join the Roman auxiliary?

Answer: Getae

Clad with an intimidating barbaric appearance, the Getae proved to be no match for Spartacus and his wife after a failed attack on Sura.

2. What is the title of the first episode?

Answer: "The Red Serpent"

Prior to Spartacus leaving for war, Sura revealed she had visions of him bowing before a great red serpent amongst other things.

3. What is the first name of the Roman officer who spoke with the group of Thracians requesting their service to the Roman auxiliary?

Answer: Gaius

With title equal to a general, Glaber was unfavorable of Spartacus from the outset after being challenged on tactical decisions.

4. What direction did Spartacus refuse to march commanded by the legatus?

Answer: east

Marching east meant fighting Mithradates which would have left Spartacus's village unprotected against the Getae.

5. What "noble" gifts did senator Albinius mention would be provided for the people of Capua for attending the celebration?

Answer: water and blood

Senator Albinius is Ilithyia's father and only appeared in the first episode of season one.

6. Including the 6 Thracian prisoners sentenced to die, how many "gladiators" were presented at senator Albinius's celebration?

Answer: 8

Batiatus presented 2, Solonius presented 6. Spartacus and his Thracian warriors were not considered gladiators.

7. What color was Lucretia's hair in episode one?

Answer: reddish

Played by Lucy Lawless, the sultry sexy warrior princess also donned blonde occasionally.

8. What was Solonius's remark to Lucretia after she responded to his gesture as "flatter"?

Answer: "No, I appreciate."

Solonius and Batiatus were rival lanistas and often exchanged "sarcastic pleasantries" during their encounters.

9. What did Sura say to Spartacus before he left for war?

Answer: "Kill them all."

Sura did not call him Spartacus, in fact his real name was never "clearly" revealed during the first season.

10. At the conclusion of the Albinius games, Spartacus faced a team of 4 gladiators from Solonius's camp sent to execute him, how many weapons did Spartacus use to "kill them all"?

Answer: 2

Spartacus was provided a sword to face 4 gladiators. After obviously being overmatched at the outset, he managed to kill all of them using the sword and a 5 pointed spear like weapon belonging to one of the slain gladiators.
