* {{Hypocrite}}: He's sexist towards women, ''except'' towards the Legate, if she's a woman. He can be called on this bias a few times, like when Julia suspects an ambush, he calls women naturally deceitful (saying that this makes Julia sees duplicity everywhere), a female Legate can ask him if he actually believes her incapable of being honest - Caeso find how Syneros is suddenly cornered positively hilarious, while Syneros rapidly gives up on his argument and decides to agree with Julia, saying that maybe after all there's no harm in being cautious.

* OddFriendship: Bestia and Syneros form one. Bestia is a young, proud warrior guy (and freed slave) looking for glory and combat who has an affection for warrior women. Syneros is a scholar who'd rather be sipping wine, favors negociation and is content with his slavery. He distrusts women who act outside of their station (Except for the Player). The two bond over their opposites, and Bestia asks Syneros to teach him philosophy.
* PoliticallyIncorrectHero: He staunchly believes that women should stick to traditional women roles - he'll however turn a blind eye to how own mistress if the player is female - but he's critical whenever women are allowed by the Legate to step outside their station.

* CombatMedic: His own special move is a resource-free healing move, and he's a Triarii, which means he has further healing capacity at his disposal. He can also wear all but the heaviest of armors and kick ass with a staff or a [[BladeOnAStick lance]].
