Spartacus 

Someone who is strong, in will, body, and mind, honorable, noble, a champion, courageous, a man of ambition, revenge, and his word. This man is usually small, is anything but boastful, yet confident, and humbled by his own understanding that he is the best or soon will be. This person is usually anti-social in nature, and extremely quiet, but will have usually one extremely close friend. Someone to be admired.

Spartacus 

Spartacus was a Thracian Gladiator of Normadic stock, who (along with several other "generals") in the year 73BC, led a slave uprising that started at the school of Gladiatoral arts situated in ancient Capua, Rome. The rebellion started off with a relatively small number of escaped slaves numbering around 70, but grew to consist of over 100,000 slaves who had escaped their Roman masters to join Spartacus in rebellion. He was later put down in 71BC by Marcus Crassus and Gnaeus Pompeus Magnus (also known as Pompey - THE Pompey) following the battle of Siler River.

In the aftermath of the war, Crassus famously crucified 6000+ of the surviving rebels along the Via Appa with each cross standing several feet apart from each other, from Capua to Rome.
Spartacus was a fierce warrior.

Spartacus: Blood, Sand, and Cock

A drinking game in which any time a spoken or visual reference to blood, sand, or cock appears, all players take a drink.

References can be changed or added at any time for the slower and more dialogue-heavy portions of the episode, as long as the drinking continues. For example, references to tits, amputees, or any time someone says a word that ends in -us can all be added to the further the liquor consumption. Synonyms for any of the three words -- such as "dirt" or "shaft" -- can also be used as references.
Spartacus: Blood, Sand, and Cock example:

Lucretia: "Oh, Jupiter's Cock!"
Me: Cock! She said cock! Everyone take a drink!
