Diving Into Roman Women Clothing In The Upcoming Film, FABIOLA. You Can Be A Roman Lady In This Film!

Syra - Fabiola's Christian slave. Syra also strives to convert Fabiola through constant conversations about philosophy and truth. 

Although Fabiola is at first angry with Syra for contending the greatest ideas of the day, she eventually learns to listen and learn from her slave. 

Bought from Syria, Syra is an ornament of Fabiola's apartment, adorning it with her great skill in embroidery. Although she is a slave, Syra is going to exhibit a very modest form of Roman women clothing.

Fabiola begins by treating her as what she is, a slave, but ends up respecting her as a dear friend and learns many truths of the Holy Faith from her.

Caecilia - Syra and Agnes' blind friend. As a Christian, Caecilia accepts and even embraces her blindness as a cross she must lovingly accept. 

Caecilia is happily the catacomb guide. As a guide, although blind, Caecilia is a representation of the virtue of faith - blind, yet leading the way. She is among the first to be martyred in the film. 

Afra - Fabiola's African slave. Afra is an enemy of the Christians and a pagan priestess. She pretends to conspire with Corvinus to help win Fabiola for him, although she is actually just getting money out of him.

Afra's greatest goal in life is to buy her freedom and marry the captain of the archers, Hyphax. The opportunity arises when she has the power to persuade Hyphax to let Sebastian survive his execution in exchange for Afra's freedom.

After a life of wickedness, Afra realizes that her life is not getting more satisfying, only feeling more empty. She begins to study Christianity and is martyred by her husband for embracing it.

Lucina - Pancratius' Christian mother. Lucina watches her husband, Quintinus, be martyred in the arena in the beginning of the film and always encourages her son to be everything his father was.

As a pious widow, Lucina dedicates her life to the Church and is in charge of the virgins as well as provides the pope with housing. She again stands in the arena to see her son, Pancratius, be killed the same way his father was, eaten by wild beasts.
