Quintus Valerius Pompey is a fictional character in the HBO/BBC2 original television series, Rome, played by Rick Warden. He is described as the "natural son" of Pompey. The basis for this character is unclear. There is no historical mention of a Quintus Valerius Pompey, though a lineage with the name Quintus Pompeius (relatives of Pompeia, wife of Julius Caesar) instead existed, but the character may be meant to represent the two sons of Pompey, Sextus Pompeius and Gnaeus Pompeius. He is mentioned to be a great sailor, a trait which Sextus Pompeius had. He also exhibits some of traits reportedly held by the Optimate general Titus Labienus.
