Spartacus: House of Ashur

From among the Gladiators of the house of Batiatus, Ashur was one of two men who would have been well-suited as a Lanista. His cunning and understanding of the business side (both legitimate and underhanded) would have served him well. The only other Gladiator fit for the title would have been Oenamaeus who served under both Batiatus masters and learned the business as both Gladiator and Doctore; with the latter giving him a much better understanding of running the ludus.
