		Lucius Ceionius Commodus, a sleek Senator from a distinguished Roman family, was plucked from obscurity by Hadrian in 136 and named as his chosen successor, with the adoptive name Lucius Aelius Caesar.
		The adoption was marked by the appropriate games and ceremonies, but it soon became evident the young heir was consumptive, leading Hadrian to remark that he'd blown several million sesterces to no purpose.
		Knowing his time was short, Hadrian adopted a middle-aged Senator, Antoninus Pius, as his successor, and in turn made Antoninus adopt Aelius Caesar's son Lucius Verus and another distant kinsman, young Annius Verus (later famous as the "philosopher emperor" Marcus Aurelius) as his eventual successors.
