Terentius Maximus
Terentius Maximus was a Roman also known as the Pseudo-Nero who rebelled during the reign of Titus, but was suppressed. He resembled Nero in appearance and in action, as he was known to perform singing with the accompaniment of the lyre.
He gained his first followers in Asia, and gained many more during his march to the Euphrates. He later fled to Parthia and tried to gain their support by claiming that they owed him (claiming as Nero) some requital for the return of Armenia. Artabanus III, a Parthian leader, out of anger towards Titus, both received him and made preparations to reinstate him to Rome.[1] He was executed when his true identity was revealed.

gollark: I mean, the arguments are pretty similar to the ones about vulnerabilities in network/computery stuff, but generally it's considered nice *there* to *stop doing stuff if the owner tells you to*.
gollark: Oh well!
gollark: I would prefer him to just not at all, or possibly directly bother me about it then stop if I ask.
gollark: It's not perfectly fine to stalk people just because you also don't reveal it to them.
