I’ll go, I’ll see, I’ll conquer.
~ Julius Caesar.

Emperor Gaius Julius Caesar is the main antagonist of the Asterix franchise.

Loosely based on the real-life emperor, he is the ruling (but power-hungry) dictator of the powerful Roman Empire, who has conquered all of Gaul, except for a coastal small village, which was able to resist Roman occupation.

Seeking to complete his conquest of Gaul, Caesar seeks to conquer the village by relying on the Roman Legions and the camps that surround it. As the legions have been unsuccessful in their attempts, this would force Caesar (mostly his loyal followers) to rely on various plans to annex the Gaulish village under Roman rule. However, these plans are usually dashed by the village hero Asterix, the protagonist of the series, alongside his best friend Obelix and their fellow Gauls.

Although Julius Caesar is the instigator of the Roman conquest over Asterix's village and appears as the actual main antagonist in a handful of stories in the Asterix series, he is usually not the main villain in most of them.

Personality[]

Julius Caesar is depicted as a power-hungry individual who seeks to expand the glory of the Roman Empire through military campaigns and his conquests. Because of his status as a successful conqueror, this caused Caesar to somewhat develop a bit of an ego, in which he likes to talk of his 'glorious' campaigns, with an example being his great conquest of Gaul and his triumph over Vercingetorix.

However, Caesar rules over his empire and leads his army into battle seriously, and is cold, calculating, and even clever during his campaigns. He is also shown to be a stern authoritarian, whose influence is felt throughout all of Rome and in his legions. He can sometimes be quick-to-anger, where he would lose his temper to the point where he will yell at anyone who would arouse him.

His wrath makes him greatly feared by his subjects, who often cower or try to flatter him every-time he is in their vicinity. In addition, they even sought to appease him so as to avoid getting punished or fed to the lions.

Despite his dark side, Julius Caesar is a man of honor as he is shown to grant whatever request/favor Asterix and Obelix would ask him if they helped Caesar at something; It can be a victory in battle, pleasing his people, etc.

Biography[]

Before the events of Asterix[]

Not much is known about Julius Caesar's early life prior to becoming dictator of Rome, but it may possibly be the same as his real-life counterpart. He would eventually become Emperor of Rome and establish the Roman Empire. At some point, Caesar launched a military campaign to invade and seize control of Gaul, home to the Celtic-cultured Gauls, which led to the beginning of the Gallic wars.

CaesarAsterix Injury ChiefShield

The often mentioned surrender of Vercingetorix to Julius Caesar (from Asterix and the Chieftain's Shield, 1967).

After a long struggle, by 50 B.C., Julius Caesar's Gallic campaign to expand the Roman Empire has proven to be a success, as the Roman legions have conquered all of Gaul and defeated the last stand of Gallic chieftain Vercingetorix at Alesia, bringing the Gallic Wars to an end. Vercingetorix conceded in a melancholic ceremony in which he threw his weapons, his winged helmet, and his shield at Caesar's feet - with the thrown objects actually hurting Caesar in a slapstick manner.

Following this, the latter goes off to other lands to continue his conquests. Despite Vercingetorix's defeat, a small village in Amorica remains independent. Being something of a sorespot for Caesar's image, the latter has ordered the village to be surrounded by four Roman fortified camps, in hopes of annexing the village and bringing it under his rule. However, as the Gaullish village is in possession of a powerful magic potion that gives superhuman strength, the inhabitants living in the village and the fortified camps are left stuck in a perennial stalemate.

Asterix the Gaul[]

CaesarAsterixVol1Comp

Julius Caesar from the "Asterix the Gaul", whose design changes in the same album. Left is him at the beginning and right image is him near the end.

In the very first Asterix story, Caesar only appears twice in person. He first appears in the intro, which recounts the conquering of Gaul and the defeat of Vercingetorix. With Caesar's conquest, he has complete authority over all of Gaul "except for a small village in Amorica". No matter how many times they've tried to conquer it, their attempts would always fail, which frustrates Caesar.

While not present throught most of the story, he, as the commander-in-chief of the Roman legions, is the superior of the story's actual main antagonist, Crismus Bonus, the commander in charge of the garrison of Compendium, one of the four fortified camps.

During the story, Asterix finds out that once Crismus Bonus has taken over the village, the centurion aims to use Getafix's invincibility-inducing magic potion in a plot to overthrow Caesar and become Emperor of Rome for himself.

Asterix and Getafix prank the Legionaries of Compendium into complete dissarray, mainly due to fooling the Romans into drinking hair-growth potion instead of the invincibility potions that the Gauls usually use. As the Gauls try to make their final escape, they are surrounded by both, Caesar's legions and Crismus Bonus' men. However, it is Crismus Bonus who is asked urgently to return to his tent. There, he meets with Julius Caesar who demands to know what has happened to the camp.

Julius Caesar punishing Crismus Bonus

As Crismus Bonus has to swallow his pride, Caesar goes to Asterix and Getafix to hear their side of the story. When Asterix tells Caesar of Crismus Bonus' plot to overthrow him, the dictator was angered by this betrayal and he punishes the traitorous centurion by deporting him and his garrison to Outer Mongolia to crush a "barbarian rebellion".

In exchange for the Gauls' exposing Crimus Bonus' treachery, he allows them to go free this time. However, Caesar notes that this is only one-time courtesy and that they will be enemies the next they meet again.

His role in the 1967 animated adaption is roughly the same as in the comic book.

Asterix the Gladiator[]

Caesar Brutus AsterixGladiator1

Caesar with Brutus in Asterix the Gladiator.

Compared to prior appearance, Julius Caesar has a more active antagonist role in this story.

The plot is set off mainly because Odius Asparagus, the prefect of Gaul, decides during his visit at one of the four camps, that he wants to bring one of the "indomitable Gauls" as a present for his next audience with Caesar. After quite a lot of trouble, the Romans of the camp capture village bard Cacofonix. By the time the Gauls mount a rescue operation by raiding the camp Asparagus was at, he has taken Cacofonix to a galley on his way to Rome. Subsequently, Asterix and Obelix pursue the two on a merchant ship.

Arriving at Caesar's palace, Asparagus presents the captured Cacaofonix to the dictator, who expressed interest. After letting Asparagus be on his way, he summons the Lanista (Trainer of Gladiators) Caius Fatous so that he could make Cacofonix a gladiator. When the trainer arrived and he inspects the Gaul, he reports to Caesar that Cacofonix is too weak and skinny. In response to this, Caesar orders him to throw the bard to the lions at the next games at Circus Maximus.

Much later, he was presented by Caius Fatous a heavy tablet that details the programme for the coming games. Pleased that Asterix and Obelix are included, he orders Caius to not let the duo escape as he wanted to make them the star attraction, to which the Lanista assured that their locked away at the gladiators' quarters. However, as soon as he left he was greatly shocked upon seeing that Asterix and Obelix had managed to get out and had seen the programme.

When the day of the games, Julius Caesar makes his entrance in his imperial box, causing the crowd in the Circus Maximus to applaud and cheer for the dictator. When Caesar saw that his adoptive son Brutus isn't applauding, he forces him to join in, prompting a red-faced Brutus to applaud at a fast rate. Seeing his adoptive son, Caesar remarks in his mind that he is going to have trouble with him, which might foreshadow Brutus' future. When Caius assured that it will be a great show, Caesar states that he also hoped so and warns him that he'll be on the act if the show will not prove to be good. He then makes the call to start the games.

Later, during a commercial break, in which three Romans are dressed up as giant wine jars to promote the wine Dranka Jara, Caesar began to wonder if the public really likes the games' commercial breaks. During the chariot race, when Asterix and Obelix unexpectedly joined together in one chariot, a displeased Julius Caesar criticizes Caius Fatous for the apparent "flight of fancy", making the Lanista become more fearful of being executed. When one of the chariot drivers crashes into the dictator's box, Caesar keeps his cool when the audience cheered. When Cacofonix was brought forth to be eaten by the lions, the bard greets the dictator by his first name, causing an angry Caesar to release the lions. However, Cacofonix's singing caused them (and the audience) to run away in fright. When Caesar yells out to shut up, the bard firmly defies him and continues singing, forcing Caesar to have him taken away by force.

Turning to Caius Fatous, he angrily demanded him if the games are going on like what happened before threatening to eat the lanista himself if the lions had gotten over their fright. When the gladiators were presented, they all greet Caesar with respect with the exception of Asterix and Obelix, who, like Cacaofonix, proceeded to greet Caesar by his first name, causing the dictator to seethe in anger. When Asterix announces that there is a change in the programme and that the gladiators have a few games to show, Caesar allows them to do so, believing it to be a good start.

When Asterix, Obelix, and the gladiators introduces a guessing-game, Caesar turns red and then purple with rage and he screams at them if their trying to make a fool of him and for making everyone in the Circus Maximus watch nothing but "silly" atrium games before ordering them to fight. Hearing this, Asterix goads him into sending his "crack" legionnaires so he and Obelix can deal with them. Angry that they are "making fun of him", Caesar immediately sends in a cohort of his best legionnaires and orders them to fight the duo bare-handed only for Asterix that it wouldn't be fair fight if the legionnaires fight with their only bare hands. Nevertheless, Asterix and Obelix were able to best them all with little effort.

Seeing at how the audience is happy and entertained by this event, Caesar decides to name Asterix and Obelix the winners and offered to give them anything they ask. When Asterix asks for the release of Cacofonix and the freedom of the gladiators, which Caesar grants. However, Asterix also asks the latter that he lend them Caius Fatuous for their journey and he'll be sent back by return. Pleased by this request, as he now has a dislike for the lanista, Caesar happily grants Asterix's request, to the horror of Caius Fatuous.

Asterix and Cleopatra[]

Julius Caesar, due to his status as a successful invader, mockingly belittles Egypt as a decadent nation. When Cleopatra, the ruling queen of Egypt, protested that her people, the Egyptians, had built the pyramids, the Temple of Pharos, as well as temples and obelisks, Caesar indifferently belittles that her people are past their best. This infuriated Cleopatra to the point where she makes a wager with him, in which she promised to build him a magnificent palace in Alexandria in over three months, which Caesar doubts as he believed that Cleopatra will fail. Shortly after his departure, she summons a builder named Edifis, who claims to be the best architect in Egypt. Cleopatra promised to cover him in gold if he succeeds in building the palace on time but will be fed to the sacred crocodiles if he fails.

Much later, he returns to ask on the palace's progress, and Cleopatra smugly tells him that its construction is going on well. Frustrated that he is losing the wager, Caesar summons his Egyptian spy Mintjulep, who was ordered to investigate the building site. There, Mintjulep discovers Getafix giving magic potion to the workers building the palace. When he returns to Caesar and reported it to him, the dictator didn't believe him so Mintjulep, who had drank a sip of the potion, showcases his newfound super-strength to prove his discovery. Caesar was then shocked when he learns that Asterix, Obelix, and Getafix are at the building site and knowing that they are helping in speeding up the construction of the palace, Caesar, in an attempt to cheat on the wager, sends his soldiers and their commanding officer to stop the three Gauls, who were ordered to surrender, which was rebuffed. During an ensuing battle that followed, the Roman soldiers began using a catapult to launch boulders at the palace, damaging it in the process.

Caesar was pleased by their efforts, and though he looked like he is triumphant, he was suddenly confronted by an infuriated Cleopatra; It turns out, Asterix and Dogmatix had delivered the news of Caesar's actions to the queen. Angry that Julius Caesar didn't play fair in the wager, Cleopatra forced the Romans to fix all the damage they had caused. With nothing else he could do, since he has no influence on the queen, a defeated and embarrassed Caesar was forced to do as she says. Soon after Cleopatra left, he angrily orders the commanding officer to lift the siege and repair the damage he and his solders had caused. Eventually, the palace was complete, allowing Cleopatra to win the wager. Julius Caesar was then invited to attend the palace's grand opening, in which he offered Cleopatra the ceremonial scissors.

Asterix in Britain[]

Julius Caesar sails for Britain

Caesar as he sails with the Roman Navy to invade Britain.

Caesar only appears once and he is only mentioned throughout; At the beginning of the story, he had invaded Britain with his entire army and navy so that they could annex the country under Roman rule. The Britons formerly helped Gaul in their resistance against the Roman Empire, but Julius Caesar's successful conquest of Gaul is what led to his invasion of Britain. During the sea voyage, Caesar's fleet came across the Pirates and their galley. Though the Pirates tried to flee, their ship ended up getting destroyed by the Roman navy, causing the Pirates to be shipwrecked.

During the conquest of Britain, Caesar devised a clever strategy in which he would attack the Britons at 5 o' clock on weekdays, as the Britons would stop to drink afternoon hot water in an etiquette manner (which in the coming centuries would become well-known throughout Britain as Tea Time). As a result of this, Caesar was successful in conquering Britain, which forced its chieftain Cassivellanous to surrender. In the aftermath of Julius Caesar's conquest of the country, all of Britain is occupied by the Romans with the exception of a small village in Cantium (Southern Britain), which is comparatively similar to that of the indomitable village in Gaul.

Asterix the Legionary[]

Julius Caesar appears as a minor antagonist in the story; He is in his tent with his generals as they make plans for their battle against Roman commander Scipio, Roman plebeian Afranius, and King Juba I of Numidia. The meeting was interrupted, however, when an Egyptian called Pteniset came in to ask Caesar something in his native language. When Caesar asks an interpreter to translate Pteniset's words, the man nervously translates that the Egyptian believes Caesar to be a holiday camp helper and asks him on what activities there are. It turns out, Pteniset believed that the Roman training he is going through is a holiday camp. Immediately getting angry, Caesar yells at Pteniset and the interpreter to get out of his tent. As he went back to his meeting, he is again interrupted by two new soldiers, Hemispheric the Goth and Gastronomix the Belgian, who were immediately ordered to get out. Caesar is soon interrupted a third time, this time by Asterix and Obelix.

Because of the new legionaries' actions in interrupting Caesar, their commanding officer was mainly blamed for it, leading to his arrest. Later, that night, when Roman scout H2 SO4 returns to the Roman camp, he reports to Julius Caesar that Scipio is making preparations to attack and that he has a powerful army. When Asterix and Obelix break out of camp to rescue Panacea's lover Tragicomix, who is held prisoner in Scipio, a centurion, falsely believing that the duo are spies sent by Scipio, immediately reports it to Caesar, who sends some soldiers after them to ensure they don't make contact with the enemy army.

A while later, as Asterix and Obelix raided Scipio's camp to search for Tragicomix, Caesar learns that Scipio "is attacking" and he decided to meet them on the battlefield. When Scipio himself learns that Caesar is attacking his army, he moves to meet his enemy in battle. During the ensuing Battle at Thapsus, which was unintentionally instigated by Asterix and Obelix, Caesar was victorious over Scipio, who retreats with his forces. When he meets with Asterix and Obelix, he realized that they are the ones who started the battle in the first place, which confuses a nervous Asterix. Instead of punishing the two Gauls for their actions, Julius Caesar decided to reward them for their assistance (even though it is accidental), as this allows him to secure his victory over Scipio. When he tells Asterix and Obelix that he will grant them whatever favor they will ask, Asterix requested that he, Obelix, and Tragicomix may be allowed to return home, which Caesar grants, to the joy of Tragicomix, who has been rescued, as he can finally reunite with Panacea again.

Asterix at the Olympic Games[]

While Caesar didn't physically appear, he takes on the role as the overarching antagonist throughout and is mentioned by several of the characters. Despairing that the Gauls had come to compete in the Olympic Games and also by the fact that they armed with magic potion, Centurion Gaius Veriambitus, the main antagonist, and another Roman trainer knew that Julius Caesar will not be pleased with them if their athletes didn't succeed in winning a single or two golden palms of victory. Later, desperate to win over the Gauls as well as appease Caesar, Veriambitus, Rome's champion Gluteus Maximus, and the other Roman athletes secretly stole Getafix's magic potion while under cover of darkness. Though it alerted Obelix and Dogmatix, Asterix and Getafix strangely didn't seem to care.

The next day, during Asterix and the Romans' 24 race stadia, the Roman athletes, including Gluteus Maximus, easily triumphed over Asterix, due to having drank the stolen magic potion. However, they accidentally expose their unscrupulous cheating when Asterix goaded them into sticking out their tongues, which had turned blue, as Getafix had added a permanent coloring matter to the magic potion. Consequently, the Roman athletes ended up getting disqualified and their chances at winning a single palm of victory were crushed. However, as if through a miracle, Asterix, who was declared the winner, secretly gives up his palm of victory over to Gluteus Maximus and Centurion Veriambitus, as he knew that they needed it more than him. In the end, Julius Caesar was greatly pleased with Gluteus' apparent "victory". As a reward, Caesar promotes him to centurion while promoting Gaius Veriambitus to tribune. As of now, Caesar remains completely oblivious that Gluteus is actually disqualified and that Asterix had given him his palm of victory.

Asterix in Spain[]

Caesar has kidnapped the son of a Spanish chieftain who refused to surrender to him, holding the boy named Pepe hostage in Gaul. Asterix and Obelix immediately beat up the Roman legion guarding Pepe and return him to Spain.

Asterix and the Roman Agent[]

Caesar's new plan is to cause discourse throughout the village with the help of Tortous Convolovulus, he sends the Roman agent to the village in hopes to tear them apart from inside. This plan of course fails once Asterix uses Convolovulus' tactics against him.

The Mansions of the Gods[]

Caesar, while appearing as a minor character, has a pivotal role; Seeking to force the Gauls to accept Roman civilization, he devises a plan to destroy the forest that surrounds the Gaulish village to convert the area into an aristocratic Roman colony just for the wealthy. He had called in architect Squareonthehypothenus to oversee the project. Though the architect wanted to call it New Rome, Caesar decided to call the colony 'The Mansions of the Gods', so it could attract customers and guests. Caesar's scheme was partially successful as the first apartment building of The Mansions of the Gods was built. However, it all came crashing down when the Gauls destroyed it during their rampage, after Cacofonix was kicked out to make way for the Roman legions of Aquarium, which the Gauls did not take lightly. Thus, Caesar's plan ended up becoming a failure. Squareonthehypothenus, having seemingly lost faith in dealing with the Gauls, believed that Julius Caesar himself will deal with them.

Asterix and the Laurel Wreath[]

Caesar is mentioned constantly but doesn't physically appear until the end, as the goal of the comic was for Asterix and Obelix to obtain his Laurel Wreath that he wears. They managed to obtain the wreath in the end and replace it with a fake made of parsley, which Caesar doesn't realize.

Asterix and Caesar's Gift[]

Caesar only appears at the beginning where he was told by a centurion about Tremens Delerius, a legionary who is constantly drunk and insulted him one night. As punishment, Caesar's gives him the deed to the Gaulish village.

Obelix and Co.[]

After hearing that Obelix single handedly took down an entire Roman legion on his own, Caesar fumed that he would become the laughing stock of the entire world. He enlists in the help from an economics student to pacify the Gauls with the use of gold, so they would use their potion solely for carving and selling menhirs rather than fighting the Roman army.

Asterix in Belgium[]

After Caesar declared the Belgians as the bravest warriors he faced, Vitalstatistix, accompanied by Asterix and Obelix go to compete with the Belgians to see who can destroy the most Roman camps. Caesar himself only appears at the end, furious at Asterix asking him to be the judge for their contest. Caesar angrily declares that he's better than the both and sends his entire army after the Gauls and Belgians, to be defeated once again.

Asterix and the Black Gold[]

Caesar enlists in the help of a druid named Dubblosix to steal the recipe for the magic potion, he reappears at the end after being given news that the Gauls are all out of potion, only for the legion he sent out to be beaten up when Getafix brews his potion with a new recipe that didn't require rock oil.

Asterix and Son[]

Caesar only appears at the end of the story to confront Brutus after he burns down the Gaulish village and attempted to kidnap a baby. Cleopatra informs Caesar that the baby is his biological son and that she sent him to the village to keep him safe from Brutus after one too many attempts to dispose of him.

Asterix and the Actress[]

Caesar once again only appears at the end to arrest Pompey when he tries to flee, he offers Asterix a golden statue of himself to congratulate the Gauls for aiding him in the arrest. Asterix however gives the statue to Latraviata instead for her acting skills.

He sent the archivist Metadata and her centurion uncle Fastanfurius to find such a man in the form of Cassius Ceramix.

Sometime later on, he arrived just as the construction of the coliseum is finished for the fight. Caesar soon oversaw the fight between Cassius and Obelix, who replaced the actual village chief Vitalstatstix, only for it to be over due to the latter fainting. Because of this, he declared the village to be placed under Roman rule, ordering its destruction and commanding the Roman army to round up the Gauls, and Fastanfurius to get rid of Asterix shortly after.

In the end, after the Roman army gets defeated thanks to Getafix concocting a potion that causes them to float, Caesar spares and pardons the entire Gaulish village from being conquered before leaving the stadium.

Trivia[]

  • In the series, Julius Caesar is identified as the Emperor of Rome. In reality, Julius Caesar was a Military General and a statesman of the Roman Republic, before gaining dictatorial powers in 49 B.C. - holding power up until his assassination. The actual Roman Empire was founded in 27 B.C. by Caesar Augustus.
  • Because the series takes place in 50 B.C, the events happen roughly 6 years before Caesar's assassination in March 15, 44 B.C.
