Since Hermes is the messenger god with winged apparel, my son created several sets of wings out of cardboard. He attached one set of wings to an old pair of flip flops (or you can get an inexpensive pair) and spray painted the whole thing gold. He also made a helmet out of cardboard and a paper bowl and attached another pair of wings to that, and spray painted that gold, as well. Kendall, Omar (April 26, 2012).

The character was given his name at a late stage in the development of the original game after the character had already been fleshed out. [22] Unaware of the actual mythological god named Kratos appearing in Prometheus Bound, the creators coincidentally chose Kratos, the same Greek word meaning "strength", of which the mythological figure is the personification. [23] [22] Stig Asmussen, who worked on the first two games and was game director of God of War III, called the naming coincidence a "happy mistake", [22] noting that the Kratos in the game and the one in Prometheus Bound are both "pawns". [22] Zoran Iovanovici of California State University, Long Beach observed with irony that, while the mythological Kratos is best known for chaining Prometheus, in God of War II, the video game character releases him. [22] Classical scholar Sylwia Chmielewski states that the video game character Kratos draws extensively on other figures from Greek mythology, including the heroes Perseus, Theseus, and Achilles, [24] [25] but his strongest influence is the hero Heracles (Roman Hercules), who appears in God of War III with the Romanized name and is the character's half-brother.

Carson from 2005 to 2013, [6] with Christopher Judge taking over the role in 2018's continuation, also titled God of War.
