Titus Megarus is a reasonably well-off farmer in the Ameria region. Titus was also a friend of the Roscius family. A likable man with a large, loving family, Titus Megarus impresses Gordianus with his forthright demeanor and his generous hospitality. However, when Gordianus meets Titus outside the Rostra on the day of the trial, Gordianus realizes that Titus is something of a bumpkin compared to those he knows in Rome. Titus is completely out of his element in the city. Titus also disappoints Gordianus by not coming forward to tell Cicero what happened after Roscius (pater) is killed.
