Kratos is an Ancient Greek warrior, who is tricked by the gods into killing his own wife and daughter. This results in his rage causing him to become a powerful and vengeful warrior, determined to take out his wrath on the gods. He makes an unlikely ally in Gaia, the mother of the Earth, and together they rebel against the Olympian gods.

The blades were first wielded by Kratos during his ten-year servitude to Ares. He also carries the Blade of Olympus, a golden blade bestowed upon him by Zeus that is capable of killing gods. Kratos is described as both a monster and a hero, and uses his savagery to outwit his opponents and save the day.

Kratos has been a popular character among gamers, with many praising his strong personality and willingness to sacrifice himself in order to save others. Kratos is one of gaming’s most popular characters, with his legacy continuing to increase as new installments of the franchise are released.
