He was probably the grandson of Gnaeus Pinarius Cornelius Clemens, consul in 71/72 AD.[1] Severus belonged to the Salii priesthood, an order of patrician youths dedicated to Mars. Emperor Trajan advanced his political career, resulting in Severus achieving the Quaestorship and Praetorship.[2] In 112 AD, he was appointed suffect consul. He also held the offices of Augur and Rex sacrorum.
