Adopted by the Emperor Nerva and made co-regent, Trajan learned about his coming to power, being at the head of the Roman army stationed in Claudia Cola Ara Agrippenensia (now Cologne). He is well characterized by the fact that he continued to work to strengthen the Roman border and postponed his arrival in Rome for almost two years - Trajan was an indefatigable worker.
Trajan never ceased to be a commander. He wore all the military, his appearance was given by the commander in it. He was tall and strong, he was used to going to his troops. His courage was a manifestation of stoic indifference to the choice between life and death. Hearing that Lichinii Sura was plotting against him a plan for overthrowing, Trajan went to dinner in Sura's house, he did not hesitate at all. And even asked Sur to shave it.
Courageous, brave, great.
