Summary
Kratos (Greek: Κράτος) is the titular playable protagonist of Sony Santa Monica Studio's acclaimed God of War series. Born and raised among the violent Spartans, Kratos rose through the ranks to become a fearsome general, winning many wars under his command. However, they eventually encountered their mortal enemies, the Barbarians, and were nearly wiped off the map in the ensuing battle. A desperate Kratos begged Ares, the God of War, to help him win the war. Ares listened and bestowed power upon Kratos, leading the Spartans to victory. In exchange, however, Ares demanded Kratos' unflinching loyalty. To this end, the God of War tricked Kratos into murdering his wife Lysandra, and his daughter Calliope, in the ensuing chaos. As a result, their ashes were permanently bonded to Kratos' skin, earning him the moniker "Ghost of Sparta." Enraged and consumed by grief, Kratos renounced his servitude to Ares and sought vengeance on him, eventually killing Ares and ascending to godhood as the new God of War. However, Kratos' struggle did not end there; he had to face his father, the rest of the Olympians, and the Titans on the next journey.
After defeating the Olympians and cleansing Greece through chaos, Kratos fled to the Norse homeland where he married Faye and had a son named Atreus. Following Faye's death, Atreus and Kratos would embark on a journey to fulfil her final wishes, scattering her ashes at the highest peak in all the realms. Many obstacles along the way, including fighting several monsters as well as opposing the Norse gods themselves.

- Information Analysis (Has shown the capability of not only learning the power and properties of artifacts and weapons with a glance, as he did with the Spear of Destiny[2] and the Amulet of the Fate's compatibility with Cronos' magic,[9] but also understanding the powers of those individuals he has observed, like when he discerned Freya's capacity with Old Magic and her ability to resurrect specifically,[10] despite having no knowledge of it beyond the broadest strokes and Freya herself due to years of inactivity, being unsure if she could do it again,[11] as well as when he discerned Revenants could slip between sheets of reality after mere observation[12])
- Magic and Statistics Amplification (Can channel his divine energy into other objects such as weapons, and use them to filter his magical power through them, further to amplify their strength, durability, and effectiveness. His Blades of Chaos also amplify him back- the more enemies he kills, the stronger and faster he becomes[13])

Kratos also repeatedly inspires great attraction in various women he has met in his life, even the Furies inciting into them endless sexual lust for him and his body that they chose seducing him to bring him back to Ares.[26] Even Athena herself holds great empathy and feelings for Kratos which are repressed, often to even unreasonable ends.[17][7] He also convinced Freya to cease her bloodlust against him and he talked Thor into going against Odin, who has had control over the former for his whole life[27])
- Reactive Evolution (Overpowered Castor and Pollux's Amulet of Uroboros multiple times, where initially he was severely affected by said powers as again confirmed by WoG[28] twice,[29] but by the end of the fight Kratos completely ignored and overpowered[26] the amulet’s effects and proceeded to brutalize Castor and Pollux. Even as a depowered Demigod, during the events of GoW2, he was slowly gaining resistance to the powers of the Sisters of Fate because of his willpower, causing the Sisters to detect irregularities within his Thread of Fate, and by the time he had killed the Dark Rider and Alrik, the Sisters had completely lost all control over Kratos' Thread of Fate,[30] as his Thread had become slack and unresponsive to their actions,[31] no longer being able to make him lose)

- Enhanced Accelerated Development (As the God of War, he can become stronger, faster and more combat-capable "with every passing moment"[64])
- Enhanced Reactive Evolution (Even stronger than before. Overpowered the Sisters of Fate cutting off his Thread of Fate without even noticing or feeling its effects which should have crippled and killed him instantly, instead he developed his own will to resist the Sisters' control over his fate and rendered his Thread uninteractible to the Sisters,[65] enabling him to finally kill the Sisters once and for all)
- Self-Sustenance (All Types; As a God of War and like most other Gods and Titans, Kratos has no need to eat, drink or sleep,[2] he has also stated to Mimir that Gods do not nap. Was also able to breathe in the outer space of Ares' dimension)

- Enhanced Weapon Control and Chain Manipulation (Has greater degree of control with his weapons, and can even manipulate and actively control them and their trajectories and movements, like with the Claws of Hades and the Nemesis Whip)
- Abstract Existence (Type 2; Succeeded Ares as the New God of War, thus becoming the new embodiment of War itself. All Gods of War have complete control over all forms of war, battle and conflict across all of time.[61] The Olympians have weapons that surpass mortal creations, but they rely on other things to maintain their dominance, like their powers that influence nature.[71] After killing Thanatos, the primordial concept of death, he's been labeled as Death, the Destroyer of Worlds, by Zeus himself.[22] Also contained Hope within him, using a sliver of its powers to kill Ares, but it lay dormant and locked within him by his guilt and failures up until the very end of his vengeance, when he finally unlocked it to kill Zeus[36])

- Precognition and Clairvoyance (Even stronger than before, having finally overpowered the Sisters of Fate's precognitive abilities and killed them.[7] Kratos was unpredictable to beings like Zeus,[7] who was capable of predicting his death prior to gaining The Power of Hope. The Judges of Hades were also unable to judge Kratos through his heart,[36] and they're stated to be able to do just that.[36] Heimdall was unable to predict Kratos's moves with the Draupnir and its stunning abilities and despite fully recovering from them and dodging Kratos's first two initial rushes, and was eventually unable to lock on to any of Kratos's moves, ultimately getting grabbed and then punched in the face as a result, with Heimdall himself no longer being able to peer into Kratos's mind, calling it as being empty[92])

- Immortality Negation (Types 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8; Massively upscales from his Demigod self, and is capable of bypassing Fear Zeus' immortality, and is far superior in potency to the Flame of Olympus,[36] which can kill Pandora, a being that is neither alive nor dead.[36] Kratos was also able to remove Hope out of himself, by stabbing himself with the Blade of Olympus channeling the power through it, to give Hope to mankind)
- Death Manipulation (Scales massively above the Flames of Olympus, which will kill all those who touch it, be it God or mortal[36])

The Flames of Olympus are superior in might to the Fires of Olympus, which nullified Prometheus's regenerative curse and killed him[7])

Attack Potency: At least Multi-Continent level (Described as being of near-Olympian strength[41] and "second to none" by Athena,[117] killing any demigod he meets with ease, with even the Sisters of Fate reaffirming the notion as well,[118] making him superior to even elevated Redeemed Warriors, who as mortals are capable of swinging the hammer of Atlas, which has the weight of the world), likely Multi-Solar System level (Defeated the three Furies, who by their magic could create physical illusions and dimensions that contained a starry sky in the background,[26] which would require this much energy, and later a dimension that contained the Sun, propagated from themselves[26]), Low Complex Multiverse level with Divine Weapons (Possesses the Gauntlet of Zeus, the Blade of Artemis and the Spear of Destiny) | Low Complex Multiverse level (Killed his way through the entire host of Olympians and Titans. Fought on par with Zeus and kept up with his latent power growth) | Low Complex Multiverse level (Inconceivably more powerful than before. Is imbued with Hope, the greatest power in the Greek World, far above even the Great Evils, including Fear Zeus, as per Athena's words.[36] Terrified Athena and was capable of striking her down, the latter of whom had ascended to a higher plane of existence[36][98] that granted her power and a level of existence beyond everyone else) | Low Complex Multiverse level (Is[104] repeatedly[119] stated[106] to have lost most of his strength from his days as a God and even some of his musculature to the point where he was a shell of his former self.[101] Despite this, he rag-dolled and defeated Baldur in battle.[100] Defeated Sigrun in combat and managed to best all her Valkyries, whose magics are powerful enough to ripple across an entire Realm, start tearing it apart at the very fabric and make the Yggdrasil bleed[120]) | Low Complex Multiverse level (Upon training during Fimbulwinter, Kratos reawakened the dormant powers he once wielded at his peak when he goes all out.[102] Fought on par with Thor and ultimately defeated him in their final rematch.[121] Fought against Níðhögg, who can chew through the under-roots of Yggdrasil. Defeated Garm, who threatened to eat through the fabric of the Nine Realms. Held his own against Odin, who killed the first Giant Ymir and created the Realms from his body)
Speed: FTL (Could view lightning as though it was "moving through the slowest treacle" and run across a temple before it hit Ares. Stated to be of near-Olympian strength and to be second to none by Athena, making him superior to the Redeemed Warriors, who can use Essence of Hyperion, which lets the user move at the speed of light[26]), Infinite attack speed with the Light of Dawn (The Light of Dawn is powered by the Primordial Flame, which also serves as the same power source as Helios. Its beams work in a near-identical fashion to those of Helios' beams), Infinite with the Gauntlet of Zeus (Easily kept pace with Persephone, who can react to and block beams from the Light of Dawn, whose beams work in a near-identical fashion to those of Helios' beams. Easily kept up with Atlas, who could easily overwhelm Helios) | Infinite (Managed to defeat the Sisters of Fate, tagging them[7] as well as evading their attacks[7] before they can react, even while fighting both at once. Initially fought on par against Zeus, who is massively swifter than Hermes,[122] who was able to easily outrun Helios' light attacks at close ranges while wounded and battered.[36] Also easily kept up with Hercules, who could also react to and effortlessly block Helios' attacks with ease.[36] Later evenly matched Zeus in combat blow-for-blow in their final battle[36]) | Infinite (Far faster than before and defeated Fear Zeus in battle[36]) | Infinite (Slower than before but is still comparable to Baldur and Sigrun, whom are on par with Ares) | Infinite (Has managed to return to the level he was at when he destroyed Olympus. Kept up with the likes of Thor, Heimdall and the various Valkyries in battle. Able to react to, block[123] and dodge shockwaves[121] from Thor, said shockwaves being able to encompass the entirety of Yggdrasil, an infinite higher-dimensional structure)
Lifting Strength: At least Class Z (Stated by Athena to possess near-Olympian strength and to be second to none, which would make him vastly superior to the Redeemed Warriors, who as mortals were capable of swinging a hammer with the weight of the mortal plane. Broke the strap that held down the Python carcass, a giant metallic serpent that spans across multiple mountain ranges[26]), Immeasurable with Gauntlet of Zeus (Used by Zeus himself to chain all the Titans to the walls of Tartarus. Later used by Kratos himself to overpower and re-chain Atlas[15]) | Immeasurable (Is comparable to Ares, who is superior to the Titans like Atlas, who easily held up the entirety of the Greek World on his shoulders for nearly 20 years. Can hold back Atlas' strength[7] and can also overpower Hades, who has Atlas' soul,[7] which grants him strength as a result, with Kratos himself eventually ripping out Hades' soul for himself.[36] Later overpowered and killed Cronos[36]) | Immeasurable (Inconceivably stronger than before) | Immeasurable (Physically on par with Baldur and overpowered him in battle, and should thus wield a level of strength that's more or less on par with Ares) | Immeasurable (Has re-awakened the power he wielded as a God. Can seal Realm Tears, which[81] are holes in the fabric[82] of reality[70] that threaten the existence of individual realms,[83] with just his raw strength alone,[70] and can contend with the likes of Níðhögg[112] and Garm[84])
Striking Strength: At least Multi-Continent level (Stated by Athena to possess near-Olympian strength and to be second to none, which would make him vastly superior to Redeemed Warriors, whose blows can harm other champions, whom can take attacks from Atlas' hammer without issue), likely Multi-Solar System level (Can hurt Megaera with his blows), Low Complex Multiverse level with Gauntlet of Zeus | Low Complex Multiverse level (Equal to[17] Ares. On par with and can trade blows with Zeus, with both of them being able to inflict brutal beatdowns on each other and live to tell the tale) | Low Complex Multiverse level (Terrified Athena, who had ascended to a higher plane of existence and gained power beyond everybody else, and threatened to strike her down[36]) | Low Complex Multiverse level (Consistently clashes with Baldur and wins. Can close Realm Tears with his raw strength) | Low Complex Multiverse level (When fully enraged and going all out, he easily knocked Thor's teeth out and later matches Thor on equal grounds, eventually defeating him in their next rematch[121])
Durability: At least Multi-Continent level (Stated by Athena to possess near-Olympian strength and to be second to none, which would make him vastly superior to Redeemed Warriors, who can take blows from Atlas' hammer without issue), likely Multi-Solar System level (Withstood attacks from the three Furies), Low Complex Multiverse level with Sun Shield (Is the shield used by Helios himself. Contains the Primordial Fire, which is stated to be the source of Helios' energy within it. Kratos easily shielded himself from Persephone's death explosion, which destroyed the World Pillar[15]) and Gauntlet of Zeus (The Gauntlet of Zeus amplifies all of Kratos's physical attributes, and it allowed him to kill Charon, and fight on par with Atlas and Persephone) | Low Complex Multiverse level (Tanked many attacks from Ares, as well as his Death Explosion. Battled with and killed Thanatos, who is a Primordial Deity. Tanked a hit from Poseidon's Trident. Also withstood Helios' charged Power of the Sun with minimal problems. He was able to withstand strikes from Hades and Hercules. Equal to Zeus and withstood many hits from him) | Low Complex Multiverse level (Was only able to kill himself by channeling Hope through the Blade of Olympus and then stabbing himself with it, to sacrifice himself and give Hope to mankind instead) | Low Complex Multiverse level (Took many brutal beatdowns from Baldur on multiple occasions and managed to turn the tide every step of the way. Could survive attacks from Sigrun and her Valkyries, whose magics are powerful enough to ripple across an entire Realm, start tearing it apart at the very fabric and make the Yggdrasil bleed[124]) | Low Complex Multiverse level (Shouldn't be any weaker than his old God of War self. Traded blows with Thor multiple times, only getting overwhelmed and temporarily killed when considerably holding back. However, in their final rematch, a Kratos who was still holding back to save Thor, but was much more serious than ever before, was now able to take a full-powered, enraged blow to the head from him with Mjölnir, and shrug it off with ease[121])
Stamina: Superhuman (As a Demigod has the energy to climb for three days without any food, water or rest,[25] as seen when he climbs up to Pandora's Temple. Ran several dozen kilometers in search of a city and kept fighting for an entire day inside Pandora's Temple before tiring out. Survived being brutally tortured physically and mentally by the Furies for 3 weeks at an end in order to break him and make him return back to the servitude of Ares, eventually persevering, overpowering and killing them. Consistently withstands brutal beatdowns from people and gods of his own caliber, like from his brother Deimos and his father Zeus, and easily recovers from them within seconds, including his own stamina. Is also able to easily shrug off wounds that would normally kill lesser mortals.[34] Possesses infinite magic, which he gained after being driven berserk by Deimos's death at the hands of Thanatos. Even after massively slacking out on his training for years, he endured brutal beatdowns from Baldur and journeyed with his son through the cruel and deadly realms of the Norse Gods)
Range: Standard Melee Range to at least Tens of Meters, likely Hundreds of Meters with Magic. Low Multiversal with Soul of Hades[26] and Army of Hades[71] (Both the Soul of Hades[26] and Army of Hades[17] allow Kratos to summon souls from the Underworld, as well as banish his foes to the Underworld, with the Underworld and Mortal World having been stated to be separate space-time continuums) | Universal+ (Has all of Ares' powers. Gods are present across their domains, which at the minimum span all of space and time[61]); Interdimensional with BFR (Much like Ares,[17] he should also be able to[68] banish his foes[7] to a galaxy-sized pocket dimension and make them fight their own clones or torture them[17]); Low Multiversal with Alrik's Barbarian Hammer[71] (Can summon souls from the Underworld with Alrik's hammer, as well as create portals[72]) and Claws of Hades (Absorbed Hades' soul and can use all his soul-summoning powers to their fullest extent[36]) | Low Complex Multiversal (Embodies Hope itself, an abstraction greater than even the Primordials, who in turn permeate the entire reality of the Greek World) | Standard Melee Range, Tens of Metres to Hundreds of Meters with Magic; Universal+ with Realm Shift (Realm Shift distorts both space and time of an entire realm, each realm being universal in size); Low Multiversal with Weather Manipulation (Upon his arrival into Norse lands, he caused a mini-Fimbulwinter across the 9 Realms that lasted for two years.[107] Inapplicable in combat); at least Low Complex Multiversal with the Unity Stone (The Unity Stone allows travel to other realms and pantheons outside of the Norse Pantheon[70]) | Standard Melee Range, Tens of Metres to Hundreds of Meters with Magic; Universal+ with Realm Shift (Realm Shift distorts both space and time of an entire realm, each realm being universal in size); Low Multiversal with Gjallarhorn (With the breath of a sufficiently strong God, the Gjallarhorn will serve as the catalyst to start Ragnarök and open the Gateways of all the 9 Realms simultaneously for their armies to invade Asgard, which he does so in a bid to stop Odin[27])

Intelligence: Gifted (Kratos was a Spartan Commander, the youngest ever to become a captain, who won many battles and had experience battling many supernatural foes. He comes up with brutally creative ways to kill his enemies, so they won't be a future obstacle. Throughout his adventures, he has solved many puzzles, mostly created by Daedalus, who built the Labyrinth of Minos, and Pathos Verdes the 3rd, who built the Temple of Pandora. Repeatedly stated by Ares and Orkos to be the Perfect Warrior, Ares having molded Kratos for the sole purpose of tearing down the very walls of Olympus itself,[26] a prophecy which he unwittingly fulfilled after killing Ares and becoming the new God of War,[17][36] with both Ares and Kratos having complete knowledge and awareness of all forms of war and combat across all of time due to their rank as the God of War.[61] During his battle with Ares, he also fought against multiple younger clones of himself who were stated to be much stronger, faster, more agile, more skilled and considerably more bloodlusted, and Kratos brutally killed all of them, threatening Ares to send more and saying that none would ever reach his family.[125] Also stated by Athena to be a warrior who is second to none,[117] and the Sisters of Fate also agreed to this, stating that if not even the Warrior of Destiny or Perseus could stop Kratos, nobody else could either without manipulating his Thread of Fate.[31] Was able to figure out that Freya had bewitched Mimir so that the latter was unable to reveal Baldur's weakness to mistletoe or his identity as Freya's son)
Weaknesses: Kratos' anger management issues make him prone to impulsive and violent behavior as well as severe judgment impairment. However, this weakness was alleviated in the 2018 game. Kratos is now much calmer and wiser for the sake of his son. Abhors hurting human children (And by extension, humanoid-looking children), even at his worst.
