Kratos

kratos

Kratos embarks on various adventures in an attempt to avoid a disaster or change his destiny. He is generally portrayed as oblivious to everything else and arrogant in nature. He often engages in morally ambiguous activities and performs acts of extreme violence. He became the "Ghost of Sparta" after accidentally killing his family due to Ares' tricks. Later, he avenges the death of his family and becomes the god of war after killing Ares. Finally, it is revealed that he is a demigod and the son of Zeus, although Zeus later betrays him by killing him, but Kratos is resurrected and healed by Gaia. Revenge is a central theme of the Greek era, and each installment provides additional information about his origins and relationship with his family and the Olympian gods. In the Norse era of the series, Kratos finds himself controlling his anger and learning how to truly be a father to his new son, Atreus. Throughout their journey, they fight the monsters and gods of the Norse kingdom, of which they become enemies.

kratos Physical

Kratos' most characteristic external feature is his ash-white color, color that he obtained due to events and actions he carried out in his past. He was originally dark-skinned, but he changed because Ares made him accidentally kill his wife Lysandra and his daughter Calliope, so their ashes remained on his skin forever giving it a dark color. white. Other features include a scar that crosses his right eye and a large red tattoo (which was originally blue, but was later changed in production) that starts at his left eye and ends at his left shoulder. It is eventually revealed that the scar is the result of an encounter with the Olympian god Ares during his childhood, while the tattoo is a tribute to his late brother Deimos, who has similar birthmarks. Other changes that take place during the course of the series include the temporary addition of divine armor like the God of War (modeled on Ares's own armor), an abdominal scar (given to him by Zeus in God of War II), and new pieces to upgrade your armor, such as the Golden Fleece or the Boots of Hermes. Kratos' appearance can also be altered in bonus play, as completing a game on certain difficulty levels unlocks extra costumes. Several kits were also available exclusively through pre-order and other promotions (e.g. God of War III), but are also available on the PlayStation Store. Although many agree with the themes of the story, others are clearly humorous (for example the woman Athena) or absurd (for example the War Hake). A total of 27 extra costumes are available for use throughout the series. According to a God of War script, the character has a height of 2.34 meters.

Personality

Kratos is seen in almost all villages as a reckless, cruel, anti-theistic, destructive, spiteful and bloodthirsty being who does not mind killing anyone who gets in his way, if that includes innocent people. For this reason, Kratos is unable to accept any type of responsibility for his actions, often blaming the Gods for the acts he commits and disavowing them. The memory of his past atrocities and the murder of his family have pushed him to at least attempt to take his own life on two occasions. Previously in the installment canon, Kratos was considered someone less callous toward life, sacrificing an innocent person if necessary in order to achieve his goals. He is also viewed with a sense of deep shame and horror at his reputation as the Ghost of Sparta. An example of this is that at one point, he tried to ask a woman in Athens for a key causing her to horrify him.zada, run away from him and call him a monster; Kratos is visibly horrified by the fear and justified hatred that others feel for him and his actions, even going so far as to attempt their lives rather than receive any help from the Ghost of Sparta. This shame is greatly manifested when Kratos witnesses the atrocities committed by Ares, frequently questioning himself for having become what he now detests. His first canonical appearance in God of War: Ascension shows a Kratos who mourns the deaths of Orkos and the Oracle of Delphi and in the case of Orkos, built a funeral pyre to cremate his body as a way of respect for his role in the life

Personality

In Delphi, when Castor orders the guards to remove Kratos from the Oracle's temple, he avoids them when they have the good sense to flee. On the island of Delos, he is merciful enough to push an innocent man out of the way of a spear, while he would most likely let him die in later games. It is possible that Kratos still had to develop the apathy for the lives of others that would come with his later experiences, but this is not proven. He is also very libidinous and is shown to be sexually passionate with many women, although, as Gaia has said, he never found true happiness or comfort in these acts, with Lysandra being the only woman he truly loved. Before and during the rule of Ares, Kratos was very respectful of the gods (with the exception of Persephone and Ares himself) calling them with the epithet "Lords", although he had great distrust of them. Ultimately, Kratos develops a disappointment towards the Gods and became less respectful towards them. At the end of his service to the Olympian Gods, Kratos was quite defiant and hostile towards them for not helping him deal with the nightmares that torment him. However, he is more careful with Athena and vice versa (to a certain extent), showing himself genuinely saddened by her death and seeing how Zeus, who at first laments having seen her die, later downplays her death, which angers Kratos. . The only Gods with whom he is not hostile are Aphrodite and Hephaestus, since both are indifferent to what happens on Olympus (although in the latter case, he only saw in Hephaestus a means of obtaining the power necessary to kill Zeus. ). Although it is very likely that the Blacksmith God holds a grudge against Zeus similar to the one Kratos feels for his father, as well as the same pain that both feel for the loss of their respective daughters

personality

in the end He had to kill him as he was trying to prevent him from finding his daughter Pandora. By the game God of War III, Kratos is so blinded by rage and so obsessed with eliminating Zeus that he does not realize that he is destroying the entire world in the process, ignoring the warnings that Athena, Poseidon, Hera, and himself Zeus tells him that killing the Gods would ultimately result in the destruction of Greece. However when he enacts his final vengeance on Zeus and sees the damage he caused to the world, Kratos is so overcome with guilt that he finally commits suicide on the ruins of Greece. Despite his cruelty, Kratos also has a human side when it comes to her wife and daughter, caring for her and loving them to the point of going crazy when he remembers the horrific act he committed against them. In fact, the only time Kratos was truly happy was his brief reunion with Calliope in God of War: Chains of Olympus. He has also been shown to care for his brother Deimos and his mother Callisto, but when they both die, Kratos' anger towards the gods increases, largely justifying his hatred and disappointment towards them for their injustices. . Additionally, he respected his fellow Spartans, including the Last Spartan and the unnamed captain he encountered several times during God of War II, to whom he has even been shown grateful in God of War: Ghost of Sparta. Kratos mentioned during his battle with Zeus at the end of this game that he did not allow him to destroy Sparta, showing that he cared for the city and its people. In God of War III, Kratos grows close to Pandora when she reminds him of his own daughter, even mistaking her for Calliope in their first meeting
