# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Philip was born in 237 to Philip the Arab and Marcia Otacilia Severa, entering a world where his father had seized the throne through murder and ambition. Elevated to co-emperor while still a child, he ruled alongside his father as the youngest Augustus Rome had seen in decades. When his father fell to a usurper's army in 249, the boy emperor stood alone. The Praetorian Guard cut him down within weeks, ending the bloodline his father had tried to secure.
