Immediately after, Loki called upon some guards that carried him to the bed chamber where he is supposed to stay until his Odinsleep is over, during which Odin would rejuvenate and replenish the Odinforce.[3] Thor confronts the Destroyer Due to Odin's inability to perform his actions as King of Asgard while in the Odinsleep, Loki was appointed regent, and after numerous subversive acts against his rule by his subjects and Thor's friends, Loki sent the Destroyer down to Earth after Thor.

During the subsequent duel, Loki wields Gungnir and fires several Odinforce blasts against his brother.[3] Phase 2 As part of the Protocol Phase 2, the wreckage of the Destroyer Armor left behind in New Mexico was salvaged and reverse engineered by scientists to create a gun-like weapon of great power that would fire blasts of Odinforce like the automaton it was made from.[4] Loki's Campaign on Earth Phil Coulson threatens Loki After coming to conquer Earth, Loki was apprehended by Thor and his new allies at During Loki's escape, he fatally wounded Agent Phil Coulson with a stab through the heart after deceiving both him and Thor.

To make peace? You long for battle. You crave it. You're nothing but a boy trying to prove himself a man." ―Laufey to Thor[src] Laufey was the king of the Frost Giants of Jotunheim, and the biological father of Loki. While attempting to start a second war between Jotunheim and Asgard, Laufey was approached by Loki who offered him a way of murdering the Asgardian King Odin, only for Loki to betray and kill Laufey before attempting to wipe out all of the Frost Giants. Biography Asgard-Jotunheim War Defeated by Odin "From around the cold and darkness came the Frost Giants. Threatening to plunge the mortal world into a new ice age. But humanity would not face this threat alone. Our armies drove the Frost Giants back into the heart of their own world. The cost was great. In the end, their King fell. And the source of their power was taken from them." ―Odin[src] Laufey during the war against Asgard. Laufey was the leader of the Frost Giants. Seeking to give his people a new home world, he led his army to Earth where they invaded a small Viking village and used the Casket of Ancient Winters to slaughter the innocent lives there. This attack put Laufey's army in conflict against the Asgardians and their King Odin[4], with the help of the Eternals[5], beginning a war. Laufey fought in the front lines of the war, killing the Asgardian Soldiers by freezing them. Laufey is eventually defeated by Odin The final battle of the war took place on Jotunheim. Laufey and Odin engaged in a one-on-one battle until the Asgardian King came out victorious and Laufey was forced to surrender. To ensure such a terrible war did not occur again, Laufey and Odin agreed to a peace treaty, where the Frost Giants' power source, the Casket of Ancient Winters, would be taken from them and neither race would attack the other and they could both live peacefully for centuries to come. As the Asgardians left the battle, Odin entered a temple to collect the Casket of Ancient Winters. He also found a child who was Laufey's undersized son, left there to die, so he took him as his own.[4] Attack on Jotunheim Confrontation with Thor Laufey negotiates with and mocks Thor "The House of Odin is full of traitors.""Do not dishonor my father's name with your lies!""Your father is a murderer and a thief!" ―Laufey and Thor[src] Years later, Thor, Loki, Sif and the Warriors Three went to Jotunheim to look for an explanation for the Frost Giants' intrusion that they suffered. However, they received an unwelcomed visit, when Thor was insulted by one soldier, he attacked the Frost Giant and Laufey ordered his army to attack the Asgardians, even sending a Frost Beast to kill the Warriors Three and Sif. Laufey declares a new war against Odin After a long battle, Thor killed the Frost Beast, but in the chaos Laufey gathered his entire army to overpower the Asgardians. Before they could kill the invaders, Odin arrived on Sleipnir to break up the skirmish. Laufey spoke to his former enemy, who attempted to reinstate the peace treaty, but Laufey assured him that Thor had caused a war. Laufey attempted to kill the Asgardian King by stabbing him with an ice knife, but Odin escaped with his fellow Asgardians.[4] Loki's Offer Laufey makes a new deal with Loki "Kill him.""After all I've done for you?""So you're the one who showed us the way into Asgard." ―Laufey and Loki[src] Later, Loki paid a visit to him in Jotunheim, hinting that he was the one who allowed the Frost Giants into Asgard in the first place. He offered a deal with Laufey, in which he told Laufey to go to Asgard to kill Odin. That way, Loki would be able to take the throne.[4] Betrayal and Death Laufey finally arrives on Asgard "It's said you can still see and hear what transpires around you, even in this state. I hope it's true, so that you may know your death came by the hand of Laufey.""And your death came by the son of Odin." ―Laufey and Loki[src] Loki allowed Laufey into Asgard, having froze the gatekeeper Heimdall, before leading the Frost Giants to Odin, but Loki stayed behind. Laufey made his way to the unconscious Odin, knocking out Queen Frigga along his way and prepared to kill his enemy. Laufey is shot in the back and killed by Loki As Laufey stood over Odin, he mocked him before building a knife out of ice to kill him. In a twist of fate, Loki betrayed Laufey by using Gungnir's energy beam to disintegrate him, taking credit for killing the seemingly invading Frost Giant warriors. This act made Loki look like a hero in front of his adoptive mother as part of his plan to completely destroy Jotunheim and the Frost Giant race as well as usurp the throne of Asgard.[4] Personality "You should listen to his counsel. You know not what your actions would unleash. But I do. Go now, while I still allow it." ―Laufey to Thor[src] Laufey is a conniving individual, leading an attack into Odin's Vault after a thousand year truce only to blame it purely on Thor for retaliating. He felt ashamed to have a small offspring and abandoned his baby for death. Despite signing a peace treaty, Laufey never left his ambition to conquer using the Casket of Ancient Winters. He was helped by Loki to sneak into Asgard and kill Odin, but his ambition clouded his judgement as Loki turned on Laufey and killed him. Powers and Abilities Powers Frost Giant Physiology As a Frost Giant, Laufey possessed all of the various superhuman attributes common among his people, including superhuman strength, durability, speed, agility, stamina, reflexes, healing, and was extremely long-lived, as well as the ability to manipulate ice. All Frost Giant's skins are blue, which goes well with their icy planet called Jotunheim. Superhuman Strength Like all Frost Giants, Laufey possessed great superhuman strength, fighting a whole war using his strength and leadership. He also easily pushed away Frigga, an Asgardian. Superhuman Durability Laufey's body was extremely durable, not unlike all other Frost Giants. He withstood attacks by Odin and Thor. He was struck by Thor using MjĂžlnir and flew into the wall from the hit, but he was only temporarily down. Yet this durability was no match for Gungnir as he was obliterated instantly. Superhuman Speed Laufey could run and move at great superhuman speed, running into battle towards Thor when his party invaded Jotunheim. Superhuman Agility Laufey naturally possessed far greater agility than humans. This allowed him to battle Thor after his first hit. Superhuman Stamina Laufey's Frost Giant physiology allowed him to endure stressful physical activity, fighting a tiresome war and not stopping to relentlessly pursue the Asgardians who invaded Jotunheim. Superhuman Reflexes Laufey could react and dodge objects traveling at high speeds, however, he was unable to dodge Loki's fatal blow as he had his back turned. Regenerative Healing Factor Despite his body's resistance, Laufey could still be injured like any other Frost Giant. However, he was able to rapidly heal from injuries and recover quickly, such as when he was thrown into a wall by Thor. Longevity Laufey, like all other Frost Giants, were extremely long-lived beings, he aged at a very slow pace, being able to live for thousands of years. He did not age noticeably at all from 965 to 2010. Ice Manipulation Laufey creates his weapons out of the ice As a Frost Giant, Laufey possessed the ability to create and manipulate ice. The ice could be formed into practically anything he thought of, being able to form a wide variety of weapons and tools made of ice. He had forged an ice dagger in order to try to kill Odin while he was in Odinsleep. Cold Immunity Due to his Frost Giant physiology, Laufey was immune to cold, being able to live on Jotunheim, a realm that was cold enough to kill any normal human being, for thousands of years. Abilities Master Combatant Laufey was a highly skilled and formidable hand-to-hand combatant, being able to hold his own against Odin and Thor before being slowly overpowered. He had also easily beat Frigga in a fight as she was just pushed away. Expert Tactician Laufey led the Frost Giants into battle during the Asgard-Jotunheim War. He also planned the Infiltration into Odin's Vault and instigated Thor into a battle which got Thor banished. Equipment Weapons Casket of Ancient Winters Laufey used the Casket of Ancient Winters as his chief weapon when he attempted to conquer Earth during the Asgard-Jotunheim War. When opened, the Casket could unleash infinite, blizzard-like cold that would freeze anything in its path. After Odin defeated Laufey in the Battle of Jotunheim, he took the Casket from Jotunheim and stored it in his vault in Asgard.

Flesh that burns, bones that break. But to break a man's spirit, is to truly destroy him. ” –Ares Ares was the original Olympian God of War, and the son of Zeus and Hera and the main antagonist of God of War, as well as the perpetrator behind the events of God of War Ascension, meaning he was also responsible for setting the events of the series into motion by tricking Kratos into killing his family and turning him into the Ghost of Sparta, which eventually fulfilling the prophecy of the Marked Warrior who would destroy Olympus and end the reign of the Gods. Ares was the oldest child of Zeus and was commonly referred to as the most hated god on Mount Olympus, even before being killed by Kratos. Greek Mythology Ares was the God of War, son of Zeus and Hera, and one of the most prominent and powerful Gods of Olympus. He was born after the Great War of the Gods and Titans and served his father faithfully for many years. He was also a rival of Athena, his younger sister, because they were both gods, one of War, the other of Wisdom, and wished that the other would stand down. His Roman counterpart was Mars. Mars was held in much higher esteem, second only to Kronos; Ionic form of the Doric áŒ€ÏÎŹ ara, "bane, ruin". In God of War Series Alliance with the Furies Ares came to covet all of Olympus, especially Zeus's throne, so he struck an alliance with the Furies, and persuaded them to take a more ruthless approach. After learning of the prophecy of the Marked Warrior, who is destined to destroy Olympus and kill Zeus, Ares conceived a child with Alecto in the hope that their child would be the marked one so that he could aid him in overthrowing Zeus and claiming his throne. Unfortunately, Orkos, Ares' child, was not up to his standards and was disowned. The Furies, however, saw potential in Orkos and made him their oath-keeper. Encountering Kratos Two Gods of Olympus, Ares, and Athena, raided the city of Sparta in order to capture a child named Deimos, who had been suspected of being the mortal who would destroy Olympus in The Marked Warrior Prophecy. After Ares captured the boy, Deimos' brother, Kratos, charged toward Ares to save his younger brother. Despite his efforts, however, Ares hit Kratos on the face and created a bloody scar on his right eye. Ares was about to kill Kratos, but Athena persuaded Ares to leave him be. Ares then left with Deimos, and Athena quickly apologized to Kratos. Ares then took Deimos to the Domain of Death, where he would be tortured for many years by Thanatos, the God of Death. Little did Ares know that the boy to whom he gave a scar would be the same boy who would Initially serve him and later leave him in adulthood after his family would be slaughtered by his own hands due to his machinations. Wager of the Gods Years later, the Gods created a contest and chose various mortals as their champions for the capture of the Ambrosia. In the wager of the Gods, Ares was seen in the comics choosing Kratos as his champion and was confident that nothing would stop him in his quest for the Ambrosia. After a grueling journey, Kratos captured the Ambrosia and thus made Ares the victor of the wager of the Gods. Kratos' Servitude Ares getting a pledge of servitude from Kratos Kratos and his Spartan army were no match for the merciless barbarians tribes of the east. Being outnumbered and overpowered, Kratos' army was losing the battle. Kratos, about to be killed by Alrik, the Barbarian King, pledged himself to Ares, the God of War, in exchange for victory. After he saw Kratos as the potential warrior that he needed to overthrow Olympus, Ares accepted, violently wiped out the barbarians, and gave Kratos the Blades of Chaos as a sign of his servitude. To ensure that the Spartan became the perfect warrior and was bound to his will, Ares and the Furies devised three blood tests for Kratos. The first had already been completed spilling the blood of enemies. The second, spilling the blood of innocents, was easy to accomplish with Kratos' rising bloodlust as he ended countless lives with his Spartan companions, and conquered most of Greece. The last rite was spilling the blood of loved ones. Ares led Kratos to attack a village built in honor and worship of Athena. The Spartan soldiers ruthlessly killed all who lived in the village and burned their homes to the ground in the process. Upon reaching a strange temple, Kratos was warned by the Village Oracle not to venture within its walls. Ignoring the old woman, Kratos, blinded by bloodthirst, killed all who were within the walls of the temple, including his wife, Lysandra, and his daughter, Calliope. Ares appeared before the bloodstained hands of Kratos and told him that it was necessary to have his family eliminated so that nothing stood in his way. The ashes of Kratos' loved ones were gathered by the Village Oracle who then placed them upon his skin as a permanent reminder of the monster he had become the Ghost of Sparta. Enraged by Ares' deception, Kratos declared vengeance upon the God of War who once saved his life. After Kratos left Ares' service, the God of War's son, Orkos, learned of the injustice that his parents had inflicted on Kratos and turned against his father and his mothers. Orkos sought counsel from the Oracle, Aletheia, who revealed Ares' plot to overthrow Olympus. When Orkos and Aletheia went to warn Zeus, Ares discovered their attempt and sent the Furies after them. Orkos escaped while Aletheia had her eyes torn out and hidden in the ruined Statue of Apollo. The Furies then ruthlessly hunted Kratos to force him to return to Ares' service for their plan to reach its fruition. During Kratos' triumph over the Furies, it was revealed that Ares had wanted Kratos returned to him; the plan was ruined when Kratos killed the Furies and mercifully killed Orkos, who was remade the oath keeper to Kratos, and thereby severed his bond. Kratos managed to escape and served Olympus for 10 years, all while hoping to redeem himself as well as for his sins to be forgiven. Battle with Kratos Jealousy came over Ares for Athena, and, as a result of that jealousy, Ares laid siege to Athens. Since Zeus had forbidden the Gods from waging war with one another, Athena could not step in to protect her city. Instead, Athena enlisted the help of Kratos, who had faithfully served the Gods for 10 years. Kratos was instructed to find Pandora's Box in order to kill Ares. While Ares relentlessly tore Athens apart, he suddenly sensed that Kratos had retrieved the Box. Although he was impressed, Ares picked up a broken pillar and hurled it into the desert, which flew into Pandora's Temple and struck Kratos in the chest, impaling him to a wall and killing him. Ares' Harpies retrieved the Box and brought it to him. However, Kratos escaped the Underworld through the help of the mysterious Grave Digger. Ares challenged Zeus, and threatened to open the Box and use it against Olympus. It seemed all was lost, until Ares looked behind him and saw a returning Kratos standing behind him. He then mocked Zeus by his saying that he sent a broken mortal to defeat the God of War. Kratos, using his power granted by Zeus, took the Box from Ares' hands and opened it. The Gods' power was unleashed, and Kratos felt its magic pour into him, which caused him to grow into a giant though Ares was still noticeably bigger than him. Kratos' strength matched Ares, and the ultimate battle for power began. Ares claimed that Kratos was still just a mortal, and was every bit as weak as the day that he begged him to save his life. Kratos recalled that he was not the same man that Ares had found that day – the monster Ares created had returned to kill him. Ares boasted that Kratos had no idea of what a true monster really was. Ares then unleashed large spider-like spikes from his back and was ready to finally kill Kratos for good. Kratos gained the upper hand during the fight, but Ares trapped him in an illusion where his family was attacked by an army of clones of himself representing his mistake of killing his wife and child, and stated that there were more effective ways of killing someone than just physical harm. Though Kratos had managed to kill all of the clones, Ares mocked him, ripped the Blades of Chaos from his arms, and killed the image of his family with them. The two of them returned to the real world, where Kratos was emotionally beaten, and Ares boasted that Kratos should have been stronger and prepared to kill him with His Sword. Death of Ares Ares getting stabbed through his chest with the Blade of Gods by Kratos Kratos, however, spotted the Blade of the Gods which had sent by Athena, dodged Ares' attack, took up the sword, and defeated him in battle with it. Ares pleaded for his life while reminding Kratos of the day that he had saved his life, and how he had only tried to make him a great warrior. Kratos ironically recanted that Ares had "succeeded" in doing that before he impaled him through the chest, and killed him. The God of War fell into the Aegean Sea, and was no more, dead at the hands of the mortal that he controlled many years ago. Before his last breath, Ares released a loud death cry, which caused blood to burst from his chest, and a powerful explosion was released. However, Kratos, having killed Ares, the one who made him kill his family, asked Athena to remove the nightmares of his past. Athena replied that even though he had been forgiven of his sins, the Gods nor any mortal could ever remove his memories of killing his family. Kratos realized that his nightmarish visions of his past sins would never leave him and thus tried to kill himself over Suicide Bluffs. Athena saved Kratos and said that the Gods could not allow him, who had done such good deeds for them, to die by his own hand. Athena then said that Ares's tactics and methods were brutal and while the Olympians mourned for their brother, Ares's path of destruction had to be stopped. However, with Ares's death, there was an empty place on Olympus for a new God of War Kratos. Kratos then ascended to Olympus and was given the crown, throne, and title as the new God of War, which meant that the peace of Ares' death was broken and whenever there were wars, for good or evil, they would be sought by and given permission to by Kratos, the new; all-powerful; and immortal God of War. After Kratos' success in defeating and killing Ares and becoming the new God of War, the Spartan citizens disowned Ares and hailed Kratos willingly save for a few staunch supporters of Ares, and even removed all effigies of Ares and replaced them with those of Kratos. However, a few faithful Disciples of Ares attempted to revive their fallen God of War with the power of the Ambrosia a power that could resurrect even a God, but Kratos had destroyed Gyges, the island in which the Ambrosia rested on, in order to prevent the followers of Ares' plans from coming to fruition. After Ares' Death After Kratos was betrayed by Zeus and stripped of his Godly powers, Kratos was rescued by Gaia, the Titaness of Earth, who told him that the Sisters of Fate had the power to help him go back in time, avert his betrayal and face Zeus. On the Island of Creation, Kratos came upon a room known as the Garden of the Gods, in which there was a Statue of Ares where he was referred to as "The Fallen God of War". Kratos, after he faced many challenges to get to the Sisters, finally arrived at the Temple of the Fates where he met one of the sisters, Lahkesis. She told Kratos that no one could change their destiny and then began to fight him. As Kratos hurt Lahkesis gravely, she summoned her sister, Atropos, from within herself. Atropos quickly grabbed Kratos, took him inside the mirrors, and brought him back to the day where he faced and killed Ares. She threw Kratos on the Blade of the Gods that he used to kill Ares and become the new and great God of War. Then she tried to change his past by destroying the blade. With the blade gone, Ares would be victorious. In order to maintain his existence, Kratos protected the blade while he battled Atropos, eventually defeated her, secured his past, and trapped her inside the mirror. The Second Titanomachy Ares' Tomb While he faced the Hippocampi on Gaia's hand, Kratos followed a path that leads to a chamber, the Tomb of Ares, which contained Ares' massive corpse that was concealed in ice. Kratos fought the first Centaur of the game there. Despite being dead, Ares played a small role in the third game, as he was mentioned by Athena, Hephaestus, Hera, Cronos, Zeus, and Kratos, and was also shown in flashback scenes. There was also a large fresco of Ares in the upper part of the Chamber of the Flame, which showed him wielding his trademark sword. That fresco was located right next to a fresco of his mother, Hera. Ares' voice was heard when Kratos ended up in his psyche. With the death of Zeus and the near destruction of the world, Ares' plan for Kratos to take down the Olympian Gods and Mount Olympus came to full fruition, though not as he hoped. Multiplayer “ Once your soul is in my grasp, warrior, I will grant you the strength to crush your enemies. ” Ares was one of the mentors of God of War Ascension's Multiplayer and the only mentor who was not a son of Cronos. His statue was the first one in the Rotunda of Olympus. Overview "With the powers of the god of war, a warrior of Ares is what some might call a "glass cannon" the best physical damage dealers from the game, but also the least resistant to damage. This makes Ares the opposite of Poseidon in Multiplayer. His warriors also have a natural bond with fire and heat, which makes them even more fierce by allowing them to keep burning and harming enemies even after an attack." A Warrior of Ares could annihilate his enemies in a matter of seconds but must watch out for incoming attacks. The God of War's servants could survive in hoards of enemies by themselves, which made that the best class for Trial of the Gods. Warrior Dominant physical powers. Fire Magic Damage over time and disable enemy defenses. Ares Items Enhanced melee combat. Ares Weapons Grant damage bonuses and burn enemies over time in certain special attacks. Ares Armors Focus on enhancing physical powers. Ares Symbols Spear, helmet, dog, vulture, and flaming torch. Appearance Ares appears as a giant warrior god. He wears a brown sleeveless tunic, shoulder pieces with cerberus faces built into them, and has bracers and boots with chains on them. His boots go up to his knees. He has long hair and a beard, which seem to be made of fire. He can grow bladed spider legs from his back. Personality Being the god of war, violence and bloodshed, Ares is cruel, sadistic, and violent, as seen by his caring only about spreading chaos and conflict across the world. According to Zeus, Ares only feels joy when destroying cities and nations. Ares is also extremely greedy and power hungry, as exemplified by his desire to destroy his father, so he can replace him as the new king of gods and the ruler of Olympus. However, all his attempts to overthrow Zeus failed. He was even arrogant to the point of openly calling out Zeus and challenging his rule. Ares also considered love for one's family a weakness, which is evident by how he tricked Kratos into murdering his family, as he believed they hindered his servant from becoming a great warrior. He would later learn the hard way that he should have been careful with his expectations for Kratos, who slaughtered Ares in turn once he became aware of his machinations. This shows that Ares never cared much for his own kin, as he plotted to kill his father Zeus and disowned his son Orkos after he could not meet Ares' expectations. His relationship with his mother Hera and brother Hephaestus was unknown as he was not shown despising them. Ares envies his sister Athena, as she was favored by Zeus and was always trying to prove himself as superior to her in every way, such as creating the perfect warrior for example. Eventually, his hatred and jealousy for his sister makes him attempt to destroy the sacred city Athens; however he was stopped and killed by Kratos, with the support of Athena herself. Powers and Abilities As the original God of War, Ares possessed a formidable arsenal of superhuman and magical abilities - all in correlation with combat and warfare, as these were his spheres of influence. As an Olympian prince and firstborn son of Zeus, his powers were considerably stronger than lesser gods. Befitting his name, Ares was a mighty fighter and one of the most powerful Olympian Gods, possibly equal to or even exceeding his uncles in power who were second only to Zeus himself. Ares was powerful enough that he easily eclipsed Persephone and all of the Furies in might, as evidenced by Kratos being able to defeat them with powerful but relatively simple magic artifacts and weaponry, whereas Kratos needed Pandora's Box, a much stronger power in comparison, in order to at least face the God of War on equal footing. Dimensiokinesis Ares was able to create pocket universes that he could control completely. Ares demonstrated that during his battle with Kratos, where he trapped him in his own mind, where he was forced to protect his family, for Ares to kill after all, and almost broke his spirit. However, the pocket universe seemed to be made in Kratos' head instead of an actual physical dimension as when he returned to his giant body, he was kneeling as Ares appeared behind him and was ready to strike him down. Enhanced Senses Ares was able to sense how Kratos retrieved Pandora's Box while being dozens of miles away from the Desert of Lost Souls. Immortality As a god, Ares was innately immortal; neither aging beyond his prime nor succumbing to mortal frailty such as disease or impotence of any sort. He could not be slain by earthly weapons; only divine forces and weapons such as the power of Hope, Blade of the Gods or other immortals such as Titans could slay him. Superhuman Strength As a God of War and Zeus' firstborn son Ares has immense godly strength able to crush buildings effortlessly, make the ground shake by stomping and fight with Kratos after he was strengthened by Pandora box on equal terms. Superhuman Durability Ares posses incredibly durability as a God of War. During his battle with Kratos, he withstands an immense amount of punishment from him including being impaled his own back protrusions which only infuriated him more. Ares also shows to be very resistant even against divine weapons like Blade of the Gods although he was ultimately killed with said weapon. Power Bestowal Ares was able to grant the chosen warrior with a large variety of abilities and weapons, a power common among the Gods. It was he who gave Kratos his original blades, the Blades of Chaos. He also granted the Redeemed Warrior, if he chose to follow him, the highest amount of attack power as well as the ability to empower their weapons with fire to burn enemies. Pyrokinesis Ares possessed the ability to manipulate fire, in every way possible. Ares was able to infuse it in his weapons, throw fireballs from his hands, and ignited people at will. Ares often used that ability to kill those who opposed him. Ares also used it in an aesthetic way, as his hair and facial hair were made of fire. Astral Projection Ares was able to project an image of himself out of the fire to communicate to Kratos after the Spartan killed his family. Shapeshifting As an Olympian, Ares was able to alter his appearance at will. He did that however to a small extent as the change of his hair was altered between God of War Ascension and God of War. Size Alteration Ares was able to alter his size, and often increased it to titanic proportions, as he did during the Battle of Athens. Transformation Ares was able to sprout large, spider-like protrusions from his back that could be used in combat to hit and impale his enemies. Based on the fact that his statue in God of War Ascension bore those "claws", it is implied that this was a trademark feature of the War God. Telepathy Ares was able to talk to people through their minds, without physically getting involved with his target. He can even do this after creating his pocket dimension as he used it to mentally taunt Kratos. Telekinesis Ares was able to move objects and people with his mind and did that on a massive scale. Ares used the ability to rip the Blades of Chaos from Kratos' arms, and, during the Battle with the Barbarians, lifted people in the air and broke them in half. Teleportation Throughout his battle with Kratos, Ares was able to teleport all around the area very quickly. Geokinesis Ares would occasionally summon enormous volcanic rock structures to try to harm Kratos. War Embodiment As the original God of War, Ares was the embodiment of War itself and was able to draw power from it. In combination with his other abilities, Ares was able to lay waste to huge armies with little to no effort. When he died, Ares' body exploded like a nuclear bomb. Weapon Creation During his final fight with Kratos, Ares has shown the ability to materialize various weapons such as a gigantic war hammer, an axe, and a sword, all of which were enveloped in flames. Underworld Control Ares seems to have limited power over the forces of the Underworld. He crafted the Blades of Chaos from the deepest layers of Hades. Furthermore, the vast majority of Ares' army was made of undead monstrocities, hinting that he has limited necromancy. Monster Conrol Ares could control over a vast legion of monsters which served as the backbone of his army. In conjunction with his undead troopers, he was able to command Harpies, Minotaurs, Gorgons, and Cyclops. Master Combatant As an Original God of War, Ares was the most imposing and skilled warrior of Olympus, surpassed possibly only by his father and uncles. He has mastered all weapons used in the war including sword, axe, war hammer and his back spider-like blades which coupled with his godly powers and physical prowess makes him even more formidable. Even after Kratos gains power from Pandora Box, Ares proved himself to be an extremely hard adversary, fighting with the Ghost of Sparta on equal terms most of their battle and at one point nearly killed him despite ultimately lost to him. Enhanced Marksmanship As a god of war, he possessed a greater level of marksmanship as he was able to perfectly hurl a large pillar from Athens to the far off Pandora's Temple in the Desert of Lost Souls to fatally impale Kratos. Gameplay Ares is the final boss of God of War and is easily one of the most difficult bosses in the entire series. Being faced in a series of three consecutive battles with no respite between them, Ares has by far the longest boss sequence of the whole franchise. Battle 1 Ares has very large HP so this fight can take a while. He also employs a wide arsenal of different and punishing attacks, the vast majority of which can be blocked, although he attacks fast and can be hard to predict. Ares will spend most of the beginning of the fight between axe swings, hammer pounds, spider claw stabs and tackles. Out of all of these the hammer pound is the most troublesome as it uses a ground shockwave that cannot be blocked and must be evaded or jumped, beware that it comes with a hammer swing afterwards. The axe swings and tackles are combo attacks, if the player get shit by a tackle it will be followed by a claw stab and a punch sending them backwards. As Ares loses HP he begins incorporating new attacks. He utilizes a new hammer attack in which he charges at Kratos frontally before using the back of the Hammer which lets out a vicious wave of flames from the hammer's "mouth". He can also now use his spider claws more aggressively, extending them at Kratos in a multi-hit attack that can be used twice one series per each of his right and left sides. Ares can also defend himself with his claws at times, which will be followed by the aforementioned claw attack. Both of these new attacks can be blocked. Finally as Ares has small HP left, it uses a new attack in which he teleports and starts bombarding Kratos with fireballs. These fireballs cannot be blocked and must be dodged repeatedly as they are launched rapidly. Ares is out of reach while using this attack. While the battle will be long, Ares will drop large amounts of Green Orbs and to a lesser extent Blue Orbs, allowing the player to regain their strength and keep in the battle. Strategy Ares is fierce and his attacks can do a lot of damage and leave little room to defend or evade while attacking him. It is better to tackle this fight defensively as Ares can brutally punish players who neglect defense, which is especially true in higher difficulities in which he can end the fight in a few blows. The Blades of Chaos are the preferred weapon as it is fast and has range that allows players to evade easier and be more on the alert of Ares' attacks. It is possible to somewhat stunlock Ares with an aggressive approach. The Army of Hades is by far the best option for quick and dirty damage that can keep Ares locked due to the number of hits. This in conjunction with the Blade of Artemis can greatly damage Ares while limiting his attacks, although this relies on luck and the player being able to react in time and either block or evade whenever necessary. All of Ares' attacks can be blocked except the hammer pound and the fireball attack. His attacks are executed quick but are also telegraphed by certain actions. His axe swing is announced by summoning his axe before slicing with it. His hammer pound has him summon his hammer with his arms above his head, this attack cannot be blocked but can be parried, however it will follow with a hammer swing, so players should evade as soon as they parry or they will be stunned. The hammer pound is often used when Ares runs towards Kratos. His claw attacks are all announced by moving his claws in some fashion such as moving his claws to the front before trying to stab with all of them, or moving his back to either the left side or right side, as he readies to extend his claws or block some attacks with them which is always followed by a side claw attack. All claw attacks have extreme range. His second hammer attacks has him summon his hammer while rotating it, he will charge Kratos with it before trying to burn him with the flamethrower at the back, the flamethrower, contrary to appearances can be blocked. Whenever Ares rises his hands with no weapon summoned, he will try to tackle Kratos which initiates a combo. Finally when Ares will use his fireball attack he will typically glow in flames before teleporting. This attack cannot be blocked, and can be either evaded or interrupted via Zeus' Fury. The Rage of the Gods can be used with impunity here as it will be refilled at the end of the fight. Use it for a large amount of damage, even more so if the unlimited magic bonus has been unlocked. Players are encouraged not to utilize burn their Magic meter too much, as it will be necessary to make the next battle easier. Ares doesn't drop as many Blue Orbs as he does Green Orbs, so preserving some Magic is encouraged. Ares will continuously stand still use this chance to attack and deal large damage to Ares. The final sequence of the fight is tricky as it involved Kratos engaged in a strength contest with Ares which requires extensive O button pressing. The tricky part comes soon after, as the player is prompted into a Quick Time Event in which the correct button must be pressed twice to end the fight. The transition between O button and QTE is quite short and it is common for players to press the O button during the QTE, which often means the sequence is broken, allowing Ares to regenerate, some HP, although the player can attack him before he restores too much. All in all one should pay careful attention. Battle 2 Kratos now faces doppelgangers of himself which intend to kill his family. If either him or his family die it is a game over. The copies are not that durable but they appear in swarms and there is a large number of them before the battle is over. As the battle progresses the house will break apartand the overall map will be reduced. A floating platform at the back will spawn a copy which periodically used Zeus' Fury to stun the player, allowing the rest of the copies to attack the family with impunity. Closer to the end of the battle, copies wielding Blade of Artemis will appear. These are extremely dangerous as they deal considerably more damage to the family than the other copies. Strategy Magic will come in handy here, which is why the player should have preferably a full meter bar from the previous battle. Army of Hades will be the player's best tool in keeping the clones at bay. Rage of the Gods with Magic Unlimited will also be a tremendous help, as the player can repeatedly spam Army of Hades and Poseidon's Fury, letting them crowd control effectively. Defeated clones will yield blue orbs. The Blades of Chaos are also the better weapon for crowd control here through Plume of Prometheus Square, Square, Triangle. Don't let the clones, close to you as it can trigger a grab sequence in which you must shake them off, losing you precious time and momentum. Grabing the clones is an instant kill but is ill advised as it takes a long time to kill one and there is a swarm to fend off. Simply spam the strongest attacks available and save nothing, for neither the Magic nor Rage meter will be necessary for the next battle. It is, however, a wise idea to reserve a cast of Army of Hades in case the family needs healing as the clones can interrupt you. If one doesn't not succeed they should not be discouraged, as the battle does rely quite a bit on luck. If they feel like they don't have enough magic at the start, consider restarting the first battle and ending it with more magic. Battle 3 The final battle and a potentially frustrating one. The fight is a tug of war between both fighters as they try to fill their own bar at the expense of the other, this leaves ample room to recover for both parties. However, Kratos has neither Magic nor Rage meter and his attacks with the Blade of the Gods are far simpler than Ares' attacks which are more complex and far more devastating. Ares' new attacks include a sword combo that can be blocked. His own version of Army of Hades which can be blocked as well. A magic attack in which Ares will teleport before summoning 4 giant rocks which will collide and explode, which cannot be blocked. By far his worst attack is a hand blast that cannot be blocked and will leave Kratos stunned, which is always followed by a claw multi hit attack which Kratos will not be able to evade or block while stunned resulting in unfair one-sided damage that can let Ares gain a lot of advantage or regain a lot of his own lost gauge. In higher difficulities this combo can instantly turn the tide of the battle or be an instant kill. Ares will continuously run towards the player which is almost always either a sword combo or a hand blast. He will periodically roar after using some of these attacks. Strategy Players should prioritize defense here as offense is not in their side, evade Ares and attack only when an opportunity rises as you do not want to risk a hand blast or the claw attack that comes after. Do not bother with the Blade of the Gods' techniques as they aren't as powerful nor nearly as effective at draining his gauge and are slow in nature. By far the best way to deal damage against Ares involves a sequence in which Kratos clashes swords with the God of War, this allows the player a QTE in which they are prompted to spam the O button. Should they succeed, Kratos will perform a series of sword attacks which will deal enormous damage to Ares and leave him stunned afterwards allowing one to deal more damage. In order to trigger the sequence one must attack Ares until he blocks with his own sword and keep attacking until the O button prompt appears. There is a caveat, however, Ares can block Kratos' attacks in a way that the sequence won't be triggered and will result in a counter. The best way to determine whether the sequence will be triggered is if Ares was made to flinch before he blocked, if he took damage but did not flinch and blocked, then evade, as the sequence will not be triggered. If Ares flinched, took damage and decided to block, then continue. Take advantage of whenever Ares roars at the end of some of his attacks to slam him and trigger the sequence. Another chance to deal damage comes when he teleports. He will always teleport to the upper part of the map in the middle before casting his rock attack. There is quite a delay before the rocks are summoned, use it to land anywhere between two to three hits before rolling away. There is also some room for damage right after the rocks explode as he won't attack immediately. Worth noting that, although rare, Ares gauge can be depleted as he readies this attack, if this happen the battle won't end until he finishes this move. Once he is hit one more time the battle should end. Relationships Zeus Unlike most of the other gods, Ares ignored Zeus's orders and had no fear of Zeus's wrath, to the point that he challenged his father several times while mocking him for sending a "broken mortal" to fight him, instead of facing Ares by himself. Athena Ares has a deep hatred for his sister, as he refuses to even stay in Olympus when she is around. Ares considers Athena weak and is always trying to prove himself as superior to the goddess of war, or attacking her in every opportunity, as when he would command Kratos to attack the villages and cities that were sacred to the goddess. Ares envies the amount of respect and worship that Athena receives from other deities and mortals, while he himself is hated and despised. Kratos Back in the days when Kratos was still his servant, Ares considered him an almost "perfect warrior", possibly because they both shared the same rage, hatred and love for bloodshed. However, unlike Ares, Kratos still loved and cared deeply for his family; feelings that were considered a weakness by the god of war. After Kratos abandoned Ares, the warrior god started to despise Kratos, considering him just a "broken mortal" with no value and saying he was every bit as weak as the day the Spartan begged Ares to save his life. Gallery Tomb of AresAres, the fallen God of WarAres in God of War AscensionAres as he appears in multiplayerAres undistortedConcept artAres effigy in GoW Ascension Trivia Ares was voiced by Steven Blum in God of War and God of War Ascension, and by Fred Tatasciore in God of War III. Interestingly, he shared the same voice actor Steven Blum as Lucifer from the animated movie of Dante's Inferno, a game that shared many gameplay mechanics and themes. Ares' appearance changed dramatically during the development of God of War. Originally, David Jaffe had intended for the god to appear as "ninety percent energy and ten percent material", but because of the limited power of the PS2, Ares' appearance was gradually stripped back to the warrior seen in the final product. Ares also appeared as the main antagonist at the end of Spartan Total Warrior, a game that shared many similarities with God of War. During the final battle, after Kratos is robbed of his blades and magic, Ares will use the Army of Hades ability, implying he has some degree of power stealing or perhaps, with him being a God, can also withdraw blessings or powers other Olympians have given him. Because he was killed by Kratos, it was rather unlikely that Ares had a chance to be affected by the evils of Pandora's Box, as he did not truly display any characteristics of the evils the Box contained. As such, Ares' threat to attack Olympus as well as his bloodthirsty ways were already part of his own character. Ares is technically responsible for Kratos' standard appearance with the exception of the scar on the latter's abdomen. He attacked Kratos when the latter was a child, giving him a scar on his right eye and then took Deimos away, leaving Kratos to think his brother was dead and thus caused him to tattoo himself in a way similar to Deimos' birthmark. He also tricked Kratos into killing his own family, thereby causing their ashes to attach themselves to his skin. He even gave Kratos scars on his wrists when he attached the Blades of Chaos to it. It is unknown why, even if he was an enemy of Kratos, his illusion was used by Gaia in God of War II to encourage Kratos to fight back and revive himself after his death at the hands of Zeus. According to one of the Secret Messages at the end of God of War, Ares' soul was confined to a small chamber in Kratos' Throne Room, and was forever tormented by an unknown force. Ares' human-sized avatar was only seen in Ghost of Sparta in flashbacks that showed him taking Deimos away and scarring Kratos. Ares was one of the mentors for God of War Ascension Multiplayer. That made him the only mentor who wasn't a son of Cronos he's his grandson instead. Ares was ranked on 55th place of the Top 100 Video Game Villains on IGN. Ares was the only God in the series shown with the ability to grow retractable blade-like spider legs from his back. It remained unknown if there were other Olympians with that ability or if it's unique to Ares. Megaera, one of the Furies, had spider-like legs growing out of her back their appearance was very similar, though more insect-like, compared to Ares' but they were not on fire and they seemed to be truly a part of her physiology. Based on Ares' appearance in God of War Ascension, his ability to grow those spider legs wasn't a secret to the Champions of Ares. In other words, Kratos would have known that Ares had that ability as was implied by Kratos' complete lack of surprise. The legs were mostly a surprise for the gamer. The Champions of Ares had a natural bounding with fire and gained energy from battle as revealed in Ares' Trailer of Ascension. In God of War Ascension, Ares was seen with shorter hair and beard than in the other games. The reason of the change was still unknown. It was most likely, however, that Ares, like the other Gods, could change his appearance depending on whatever suited him. Since Ares' appearance in Ascension is shown in flashbacks, it is possible this was Ares' appearance prior to Kratos' birth or as the game took place ten years prior to the original game. Ares is technically responsible for the events of the Greek-era games of the series by tricking Kratos into killing his family, he would set him on the path that would lead to Olympus' destruction. Ironically, Ares lacks a mustache with his facial hair, a gesture which is seen by most cultures as a symbol of non-violence and pacifism. Mustaches are strongly associated with military services and thus removing them was considered a symbolic gesture of rejecting militarism. v d eGods in the God of War seriesGreekGods AeĂ«tes Amphitrite Aphrodite Apollo Ares Ariadne Artemis Asclepius Athena Boreas Circe Demeter Dionysus Erinys Eurus Hades Hephaestus Hera Hercules Hermes Hestia Iris Kratos Medea Muses Nike Notus Orkos Pelias Persephone Phobos Poseidon Triton Zephyrus Zeus Zora and Lora Titans Atlas Cronos Echidna Eos Epimetheus Gaia Helios Hyperion Iapetus Mnemosyne Oceanus Perses Prometheus Rhea Themis Thera Typhon Demigods Calliope Castor and Pollux Ceryx Deimos Hercules Kratos Medea Orkos Peirithous Pelias Perseus Theseus Zora and Lora Primordials Atropos Ceto Chaos Clotho Erebus Eros Gaia Graeae Morpheus Nemesis Nyx Ouranos Ourea Sisters of Fate Tartarus Thanatos The Furies Alecto Lahkesis Megaera Orkos Tisiphone NorseAesir Baldur Bragi BĂșri Forseti GnĂĄ Heimdall Hör HƓnir Iunn Magni Meili Modi Nanna Odin Sif Sleipnir Thor TĂœr Ullr VĂ­arr Vili VĂ© Vanir Beyla Freya Freyr Nerthus Njörd Misc.
