[[foldercontrol]]
[[folder: In General]]
*DoomedByCanon: All the known characters already have their fates decided; Peter will die as a martyr in Rome, Pontius Pilate will eventually lose his position as governor, and so on.
* TheEmpire: All of them live under Rome's aegis.
* FakeNationality: None of the actors are really Jewish or Italian.
* HistoricalDomainCharacter: Most of them.

[[/folder]]
[[folder: Tribune Clavius]]
--->'''Played by''': Creator/JosephFiennes
A devout and discerning Roman tribune, the equivalent of a lieutenant or colonel in the Roman army. He is normally assigned to putting down rebellions in the Jewish region and is called to investigate Christ's disappearance from his tomb.
!!Tropes:
* TheAce
* BadassInCharge: Leads a platoon of soldiers in the intro exceedingly well and cuts through a number of men himself.
* BeneathTheMask: Reveals early on that he's most interested in reaching a position where he can have a family, home, and some stability for once.
* CrisisOfFaith
* DeliberateValuesDissonance
* AFatherToHisMen: Clearly affected by the deaths of his men in the intro.
* GreatDetective: He's tasked with finding out how Christ's body disappeared and does a pretty good job, especially for the standards of the time. Notably, he interviews people in a fashion pretty close to modern interviews and knows how to apply pressure or reward to encourage honesty.
* TheHero
* HeroesPreferSwords
* MrFanservice: Is quite handsome, and even appears in a loincloth during a bath.
* RealMenLoveJesus: Is a devout follower of the gods, particularly Mars. Early on in his investigation, he even [[IncrediblyLamePun does as the Jews do]] and prays to the Hebrew god, promising that if he is successful he will erect temples and hold games in his honor.

[[folder: Lucius Tycho Ennius]]
--->'''Played by''': Creator/TomFelton
The son of a powerful Roman politician, Lucius is assigned as Clavius's aide at the start of the Messiah case. Young and impressionable, he both learns from Clavius and is intimidated by him.
!!Tropes:
* TheAce: Doesn't say much, but does well at anything he's assigned, even taking the initiative on some occasions.
* TheApprentice
* BrokenPedestal
* TheIngenue: Is clearly new to the soldiering business, but is portrayed sympathetically.
* OutOfFocus
* YouAreInCommandNow

[[folder: Pontius Pilate]]
--->'''Played by''': Creator/PeterFirth
The figure from the Bible, Pilate is portrayed here as a shrewd politician who seeks to quash the political powderkeg of the Messiah's disappearance. With Clavius as his favored tool (at first), he juggles between him, the Sanhedrin, and an upcoming visit from Tiberius Caesar...
!!Tropes:
*BadBoss
*CorruptPolitician
*GenreSavvy: Knows immediately that if Jesus's body isn't found he'll be thought of as alive.
*HistoricalInJoke
*JerkassHasAPoint

[[folder: Simon Peter]]
--->'''Played by''': Stewart Scudamore
The head disciple of Yeshua who leads his followers.
!!Tropes:
* HumbleHero
* HistoricalDomainCharacter
* NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished: Accidentally sneaks up on Clavius to offer him water and gets slashed in the leg for his trouble. He's fine, though.
