Decius was a 23rd century Romulan military officer who, in 2266, participated in the Empire's effort to test Earth forces' resolve nearly a century after the Earth-Romulan War.

In that year, Decius served aboard a Romulan Bird-of-Prey, attacking a series of Earth outposts along the Romulan Neutral Zone. As a disciplinary measure, Decius was reduced two steps in rank by his commander as a result of Decius's breaking of radio silence, dispatching a coded message to provide a status update to the Romulan praetor. His commander initiated this action despite the fact that Decius had influential friends within the Empire, believing that they were being shadowed by an Earth vessel.

Later, in response to his commander's refusal to attack the USS Enterprise, Decius successfully manipulated him into launching an attack by requesting permission to destroy the enemy vessel himself. His commander, refusing to relinquish his own authority, did indeed attack, but soon found that the Enterprise was, in fact, only feigning disablement, and found himself overpowered by the Earth vessel. Decius and the other Romulan crewmembers were killed when the commander initiated a self-destruct, refusing to surrender to the Humans. (TOS: "Balance of Terror")
