Embracing Tragedy: The Birth of the Warrior
The concept of Kratos originated from former God of War creative director, Stig Asmussen, who wanted to subvert traditional notions of a protagonist by imbuing the hero with impossibly human flaws. The protagonist of the series is initially introduced to us in God of War where, we find out, he is head-strong and more or less divorced from his sense of humanity. Asmussen delved into ancient Greek mythology for Joseph Siegel's bibliography to inspire Kratos's lore. To combat the aftermath of rape by God Zeus, Kratos avenged his loved ones, triggering a formidable battle with Greek god gods. Crystallizing his fate as a lone, finer cog promoting respect and revenge after numerous tragic events throughout his entire endeavor.
