Crocea Mors is the gladius, or short sword, of Gaius Julius Caesar. It has an ornately decorated - yet functional - hilt and the blade is the finest ever made by the Roman Republic. During the invasion of Britain by the Roman Legions, Caesar and Nennius, a noble Briton, met in single combat. In the course of the battle, Crocea Mors wounded Nennius but got stuck in his shield simultaneously. Caesar and Nennius were separated and the Briton took the sword from his shield and fiercely attacked the Romans with Caesar's own sword, beheading or fatally wounding every soldier struck.
Nennius soon succumbed to his wounds and Caesar successfully conquered Britain. After the battle and Nennius' death, Caesar buried Crocea Mors with Nennius in honor of his worthy foe.
