Occupation: God of War
Place of Birth: Olympus

History: Son of Zeus and Hera, the shiny-armored, spear-carrying, 4-horse war chariot-riding Ares was god of slaughter, warfare, and warriors. Because Ares killed men, he was hated by the Greeks. As a result there are few Greek cults of Ares, with temples mainly on Crete and the Peloponnese. However, Ares was also known as a god of courage, the savior of cities and father of victory.

It was contrary to the spirit which animated the Greeks to represent a being like Ares, with all his overwhelming physical strength, as always victorious; and when he comes in contact with higher powers, he is usually conquered. He was wounded by Diomedes, who was assisted by Athena, and in his fall he roared nine or ten thousand other warriors together. When the gods began to take an active part in the war of the mortals, Athena opposed Ares, and threw him on the ground by hurling at him a mighty stone; and when he lay stretched on the earth, his huge body covered the space of seven plethra.

The gigantic Aloadae had likewise conquered and chained him, and had kept him a prisoner for thirteen months, until he was delivered by Hermes. In the contest of Typhon against Zeus, Ares was obliged, together with the other gods, to flee to Egypt, where he metamorphosed himself into a fish. He was also conquered by Heracles, with whom he fought on account of his son Cycnus, and obliged to return to Olympus. In numerous other contests, however, he was victorious.

Secrets: For such a hard man Ares secretly likes the taste of Cheesecake
Goals: To rid the world of the Heroes that would eventually stand against Olympus.

Personality: Ares has the attitude of a very hard raised individual. He is brash and is overwhelmingly rude and harshly inpatient. He wants things done his way or his rudeness gets worse. Bluntly put Ares is an asshole and doesn’t care who knows it. Also Ares is very arrogant almost to a fault believing that he is always right and is too stubborn to be proven wrong.

It is probably a wise decision to never get on Ares’ bad side. Ares is a very cranky individual and will show it more time that not. Take heed around Ares, cause if he doesn’t like he will make sure you know it before to leave. Ares doesn't beat around the bush, if he wants to say something to you he will and without restrained. So in earnest I tell you it would be wise to stay on his good side, ‘less you want to hear about it for the rest of our life or even start a war. After all he is the God of War and would love to start one with you.

Not all fairy tales
Have a happy ending

Role Play Sample:

-Sitting at his throne the God of War looked down on the world’s brutality and reveled in the war that modern man had brought. Weapon’s nowadays where far more advanced than the weapons of the days of Rome and were far more interesting. Although his mind thought on the use of these weapons but his preferences lie with the close combat blades and he shook his head at the weakness of man. They have grown so far in technology that there strengths relied more on there aim then on the full power of their swing and it sickened him. Up until now he was proud to be known as a god of war but these days he is just appalled by the use of unconventional weaponry that forced a man to keep distance from their enemy.-

-This is not war.... war was an act of honor and brute strength that took place between two opposing forces for land, leadership, or just plain supremacy and a man was forced to look into the eyes of the men they killed. There was no honor in fighting with anything else but a sword and shield that took more skill to reign supreme. Any man can fire a gun but when a man is placed in a position where he must stand to his opponent face to face, most would crumble under the strain.-

-He stood from his throne and walked to the edge looking down in disgust. He would show this new world what war really was... they have forgotten about the Gods of Olympus and brought shame to themselves... so he would bring war through the words of his father Zeus. Although he may resent his father he could not pass up the opportunity to show this world that the Gods of Olympus still reign in their world and would let the entire populace of earth know that they have not left... instead they only stood by waiting for their time to show themselves once again. Fear will be brought... chaos will be infinite... and war will be inevitable.-

“Enjoy your peace while you can... I shall burn your buildings to the ground and pick apart your ways of war till only mine remain.”

-He spoke as he stared down.-

“War is upon you.”

-With that the god of war returned to his throne and sat, a grin stretched across his rugged jaw. As his booming voice continued to echo throughout Olympus.-
