History

Origin, activities and relationships

A simple mortal in his origins, Kratos was a devout paladin sworn to a long forgotten god. As a general he led his army to many conquests before a near-fatal clash with barbarians. He was close to meeting his end at that battle when he called out to his patron god, who granted him tremendous power and elevating him to a demi-god.

As a demi-god he continued many great campaigns and conquests until he found out that his patron god was responsible for the death of his wife and child. Driven by vengeance he sought out to usurp this god and any who got in the way.

Eventually he slew an entire pantheon and ascended to true godhood with this conquest and reflected on his path of revenge. Now he teaches his followers the art of war, but most importantly not to lose oneself entirely to it's fog. He encourages conquest and victory while discouraging mindless slaughter.
