The mistress of Quadratus, who was slain by Commodus, became the favourite concubine of
      Commodus himself. From her he adopted the title of <title xml:lang="la">Amazonius.</title> She
      was one of the most active among the conspirators, who compassed his destruction. She
      subsequently became the wife of Eclectus, his chamberlain, also a conspirator, and was
      eventually put to death by Julianus, along with Laetus, who also had been actively engaged in
      the plot. We are told apparently by Xiphilinus, that she was friendly to the Christians, for
      whom, through her influence with the emperor, she procured many advantages. (<bibl n="D. C. 72.4">D. C. 72.4</bibl>, <bibl n="D. C. 73.16">73.16</bibl>.)
