"Caesar" was a title bestowed upon the rulers of the Roman Empire. It is derived from the cognomen of Gaius Julius Caesar, the last dictator of the Roman Republic. A popular general and statesman, Caesar made enemies of Rome's elites through the populist and authoritarian reforms he made as dictator. He was eventually murdered by members of the Roman Senate. At the conclusion of the civil wars that followed, Caesar's adopted son, Octavian, created the Roman Empire and received the name of Augustus Caesar. Both Julius Caesar and Augustus Caesar were deified by the Senate and worshiped as gods in the Roman pantheon.
"A statesman, general, and author known for his rule over the Roman Republic. His full name was Gaius Julius Caesar. His many accomplishments led to his name being used as a title for later Roman emperors."
—Persona 3 Reload background
Like Akihiko Sanada's initial Persona, Polydeuces, he was a great warrior who ascended to become a god upon his death. Its appearance seems to be a mix of the colors of Castor and Polydeuces blended together. Augustus was known as the "ruler of the world," which is represented by the globe carried in Caesar's hand. The Persona uses Magic and Status moves via this globe.

Trivia[]
The classical Latin pronunciation of the name is kae-sar, emphasizing the diphthong "Æ." In the English version of Persona 3, Akihiko's pronunciation when he summons this Persona softens the diphthong and is pronounced as see-zer, its Anglicized variant.
