In the play, Julius Caesar is a general who appears to be very ambitious. From what we read, he is also very superstitious because he asked Antony to touch his wife in hope that she would become fertile. As Cassius tries to persuade Brutus, he claims that Caesar has no right to be king over anyone else by sharing anecdotes of him both drowning and becoming sick. Julius Caesar wanted people who were content with what they already had rather than people like Cassius who sought power. According to the character foil, he seems to be very observant and is less naive than Antony. Julius Caesar was offered the crown three times but rejected all of them, which was probably to win the crowd.
