Centurion Crismus Bonus, head of the Roman garrison at the fortified camp of Compendium and very keen to discover the secret of the Gauls'' superhuman strength, sends a spy disguised as a Gaul into the village. The Roman''s identity is revealed when he loses his false moustache, but not before he discovers the existence of the magic potion brewed by the Druid Getafix and actually manages to taste some.

So he and his second-in-command Marcus Ginandtonicus have Getafix captured in order to get the recipe.
