This man fought under Aulus Gabinius against Aristobulus II in Judaea, after he traveled to Greece, ostensibly to learn rhetoric, but more likely to escape the creditors to whom he owed 250 talents. That debt resulted from a period of youthful recklessness in which he was friends with Curio, who was later the tribune bribed by an ally of this man before this man became tribune himself in 49 BC. In one battle, after advancing his men through the marsh on his right flank, he was able to outmaneuver his enemy, causing his opponent to have his freedman Pindarus run him through. This man's ally's camp had been overrun, but the two still won the Battle of Philippi, where this man defeated Cassius and then Brutus. For 10 points, name this member of the second triumvirate, whose quinqueriemes were crushed at Actium by Agrippa and Octavian, and who later committed suicide alongside Cleopatra.
