If you are going to do a officer of a auxiliae cohort in the end of the first C. early second, what helmets are plausible. My caracter is probaly going to be a non-roman senior soldier on his way to earn citizenship. My plan is to wear very roman clothes, in opposite to the lower ranked troopers in the groupe who will serve in fairly native stuff. I have a hemata with dagged edges and now I wonder what you suggest. The thing is I realy like the Imerial Italic D from depeeka but just for estethical reasons. My second choise just estethicaly would be the Coolus C it´s so wonderful in its simplisity.
Help please!

"a non-roman senior soldier on his way to earn citizenship."
Pardon me for seeming a bit dense, but I always though that officers *were* citizens, promoted from citizen units to command non-citizen units, or is that just another factoid. Certainly it seems to have been the case with Ti. Claudius Maximus.

the highest rank possible for non-citizens at this time was probably centurion, and rarely even that, the best is optio if you are not yet citizen most likely, or a lower centurion, certainly not normally a primus pilus. just my .02
