HBO Original Series
The story is told mostly in flashback, after being framed with a scene from the present wherein Kratos, standing atop the tallest cliff in Greece, laments how the gods have abandoned him and then proceeds to toss himself into the waters below. While the viewers starts the story three weeks prior to this event, Kratos' background is told by the Narrator during the story (revealed to be the Titan Gaia in God of War II). Kratos was a fearsome Spartan warrior and a demigod with superhuman god-like powers and abilities (although he's not aware of his heritage himself, due to the fact that he doesn't know that his father is Zeus until in God of War II), grew his fifty-man squad into an army of thousands via strategy, tactics, ferocity, and conquest. However, in a battle against a barbarian horde, his army was massacred, and, in a desperate measure, Kratos offered his life and service to Ares, the God of War, in exchange for Ares defeating the Barbarians. Ares, sensing the enormous power in Kratos, accepted his offer and destroyed the Barbarians. He also granted Kratos the Blades of Chaos, curved blades forged in the pits of Hades that were attached to long chains which were fused to Kratos' arms.
