'''Lucius Aelius Sejanus''' (20 BC-AD 31) was a [[Roman]] army officer who rose to become commander of the [[Praeorian Guard]] under the Emperor [[Tiberius]], and virtual ruler of the [[Roman Empire]] after Tiberius retired to [[Capri]]. When Tiberius discovered his plotting he had Sejanus and his supporters brutally murdered.
