He has even contemplated killing himself at some points out of his inability to cope with the constant memories of his crimes. He tends to blame others for his actions, such as Ares or Zeus, until the end, when Kratos accepted the consequences of what he'd done and killed himself with the Blade of Olympus. At first, Kratos wanted revenge on Ares for the war god making him kill his family, then Zeus for trying to kill him, and finally, his vendetta extends to all the gods. Whenever he is wronged, he becomes obsessed with revenge and will destroy who or whatever he has to so as to get his vengeance. Kratos is a destructive, ruthless, violent, fierce, and brutal warrior who is focused mainly on his own goals, and turning what guilt he has into anger.

Though he eventually transforms into a more villainous character as his thirst for vengeance consumes him and causes him to destroy the world, initially Kratos is more of a gray character, acting as a sort of anti-hero who fights against corrupt gods and their forces but in a very brutal and violent manner. Kratos (Greek: Κράτος), also known as Ghost of Sparta and Fárbauti (by Jötnar), is a Spartan warrior that would become the slayer of Gods and the protagonist of the God of War video game franchise. In moments of crisis, panic does nothing, harness it, let it serve you. ~ Kratos can no longer stand being called the Ghost of Sparta. From what I heard, the pantheon had it coming. I'm dangling from the hip of the bloody Ghost of Sparta! ~ Kratos, telling his awful past to Atreus We will be the gods we choose to be, not those who have been. Is this what it is to be a god? Is this how it always ends? Sons killing their mothers. I killed my father.Ītreus: That was your father in Hel. I made a deal with a god that cost me my soul, I killed many who were deserving, and many who were not.
