Biography
In the year 64 AD, Nero's slave buyer Tavius bought Barbara Wright and brought her to the palace. Nero immediately took to her and gleefully chased her around the palace until they were caught by his wife.

When the First Doctor came to stay, pretending to be the famous lyre player Maximus Pettulian, Nero grew jealous of his popularity. Nero was about to kill him when the Doctor set fire to the Emperor's plans for a new Rome, which had previously been rejected by the Senate. From this, Nero was inspired to burn the old capital, so his new city could be built. (DW: The Romans)
