### Type of Villain

Power-Hungry Oppressor

**Kratos** is the main protagonist of the *God of War* franchise. As many people know, he is the protagonist of the series after all, but people go as far as considering him a villain due to his ambitious and tyrannical behaviour.

Despite his selfishness and heinousness, Kratos gains more self-control in the Norse era games, and starts learning to hold back his rage and living with the weight of his crimes, and trying to raise his son Atreus to be a better person than he is, a determination which is tested when they encounter the Norse Gods.

He has been voiced by many male voice actors. For example, he was voiced by Terrence C. Carson in the original games.

## His Evil Ranking

### What Makes Him Villainous?

* Even before any of the games started, Kratos was a ferocious spartan general who led his army into many bloody battles with hundreds killed on both sides. All of this is to satiate Kratos’ insatiable desire for war and bloodshed.
* Kratos’ army is so vicious that apparently raiding entire villages and killing all of its inhabitants is routine.
* When Kratos fought against the barbarian king, he made a blood oath with Ares to wipe out his entire army.
* During another of his routine village raids, he ends up killing his wife and child.
* When he breaks his blood oath with Ares, he murders all the furries who are sent to stop him.
* Kratos is a delusional piece of bullshit who loves killing people without a second thought.
* Throughout the first game, Kratos murders a lot of people. A lot of them are just random monsters and people who are actively trying to kill him, but just as many are just him being a giant pussy. This also applies for the second and third game.
* He murders Ares out of revenge for the death of his family, while justified it is still revenge.
* In the second game, he wages a war against the gods leading his army to battle on major cities with many dying as a result of this.
* He murders Zeus out of vengeance for all he has done to him. After killing Zeus, Kratos brags about it and continues to fuck people up like a good-for-nothing cunt who has no regard for anyone whatsoever.
* Kratos recruits the titans and leads them in a massive war against the gods.
* During this, Kratos murders all the gods one by one which each death causing a major apocalypse that by the end wipes out nearly all of humanity. Kratos knows about this but keeps going anyway motivated solely by his own selfish desire for revenge.

### What Makes Him Irresistible?

* He is sympathized with fans since he is a tragic anti-villain. He was screwed over by the gods at every turn ended up basically losing his entire family, not once but twice. And once he gets his revenge on Ares, he isn’t able to die and keeps getting screwed over by the gods again and again. This doesn’t fully excuse everything he does but it does make him a sympathetic character and a lot of his actions understandable.
* He is one of the most popular video game characters of all time.
* He cares deeply about his entire family. He was devastated when he accidentally killed his wife and child, he was distraught over being forced to kill his mother in what amounts to a righteous murder and the death of his brother after discovering him is what motivates his war against the gods.
* His backstory is played super sympathetically as well as how much he has suffered.
* While still violent on some occasions and by the time of the PS4 game, Kratos is a much more caring and forgiving person and tries to not use violence unless he has to. He also starts showing remorse for everything he has done.
