	The Internet Classics Archive \| Sertorius by Plutarch
		Quintus Sertorius was of a noble family, born in the city of Nursia, in the country of the Sabines; his father died when he was young, and he was carefully and decently educated by his mother, whose name was Rhea, and whom he appears to have extremely loved and honoured.
		Sertorius was ordered to raise soldiers and provide arms, which he performed with a diligence and alacrity, so contrasting with the feebleness and slothfulness of other officers of his age, that he got the repute of a man whose life would be one of action.
		Sertorius, meantime, showed the loftiness of his temper in calling together all the Roman senators who had fled from Rome, and had come and resided with him, and giving them the name of a senate; and out of these he chose praetors and quaestors, and adorned his government with all the Roman laws and institutions.

		This was peculiar to Sertorius, that the chief command was, by his whole party, freely yielded to him, as to the person of the greatest merit and renown, whereas Eumenes had many who contested the office with him, and only by his actions obtained the superiority.
		Sertorius, being already in high esteem for his former services in the wars, and his abilities in the senate, was advanced to the dignity of a general; whereas Eumenes obtained this honor from the office of a writer, or secretary, in which he had been despised.
		Sertorius put an end to his dangers as often as he was victorious in the field, whereas the victories of Eumenes were the beginning of his perils, through the malice of those that envied him.

	Promagistrate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A legal innovation of the Roman Republic, the promagistracy was invented in order to provide Rome with governors of overseas territories instead of having to elect more magistrates each year.
		Promagistrates were usually either proquaestors (acting in place of quaestors), propraetors, acting in place of praetors, or proconsuls acting in place of consuls.
		Subsequently, when Pompeius Magnus was given proconsular imperium to fight against Quintus Sertorius, the Senate made a point of distinguishing that he was not actually being appointed a promagistrate: he was appointed to act not in place of a consul (pro consule), but on behalf of the consuls (pro consulibus).

		Sertorius abandoned Spain for adventures as a pirate and as a general in New Carthage and Maurusia in Africa, but returned shortly thereafter with a band of 700 Libyan (Moorish) allies at the request of the Luisitani tribes of further Spain to be their ruler.
		At the height of his success in Spain, Sertorius was assassinated in 72 BC by agents of Perpenna Vento, a high born Roman and prominent member of the Cinna faction in exile in Spain.
		As these quotes demonstrate (and assuming they are accurate), Sertorius' success can be attributed largely to the loyalty and training of his native Spanish and transplanted Roman troops, which allowed him to adapt his tactics to the circumstances at hand.
