            Marcus Aurelius Antoninus upon his accession. He was called 
            Elagabalus after the Sun-God he worshiped. His excesses were a major 
            embarrassment for all. His Grand-mother Julia Maesa had him 
            assassinated with his Mother Julia Soaemias, and replaced by Severus 
            Alexander
