Rome is both the sharp shooter and the commando of the squad. He is second to Commander Gavyn when it comes to experience. He was part of what's known as the Blood Knife Coalition, a faction during a human war almost 30 years prior. The following war against the aliens made him battle hardened, much like his Commander.

Rome has a lot of experience. He doesn't just think things, he knows things. I wouldn't call him cocky or overconfident, rather, knowledgeable and experienced. He speaks with confidence, not with pride. He does do a bit of teasing at first, especially to Zach, but after the first 2-4 missions, when things really start to escalate, he begins to see how little he thought he knew the enemy, and more on how he underestimated Zach. It's then that he accepts Zach as the new member, and begins to tease less. The ending of the game is less than ideal for him, but he is willing to accept the challenge ahead.

If you plan to voice Rome, be prepared to not take the job lightly. Yes, he might seem like one of the coolest characters by far, but he plays a much bigger part in the story as whole. He is by no means an edgy "I'm better than everyone" kind of a character. In fact he deeply cares about most of his squad, even though it might not sound like it at first. When voicing him it is imperative that you speak with a calm, serious, confident, and deep sounding tone, rather than an overconfident ego-sounding tone.

He will most definitely be in a sequel if I ever make it, so also be prepared as he might have a bigger role to play in that.
