In the Roman era that warrior’s loincloth would usually be hidden by a pteruges* an armored skirt of vertical leather strips. By his demeanor he was awakened rudely and only had time to grab his sword and shield.
*(had to look that up, high school Latin classes were 1963-64 including The Gallic Wars)
I’ve seen that look before: he went poo-poo in his diaper but doesn’t want to stop playing soldier just to get changed. My kid bought similar plastic armor at Dollar Tree just a week ago- though thankfully my young one no longer wears pull-ups, unlike this oversized fellow.
Heck, it might have even called for Papyrus!
Finally someone comes up with an acceptable Gods of Mars cover.
The Diaper is a lovely touch.

I’m pretty sure their shields and swords weren’t plastic accessories from Spirit Halloween.
This cover definitely calls for Times Old Roman.
Or at least Times New Roman all caps.
Or Trajan Pro!
