Ares

Ares is a god in Apotheon.

Brief History
Ares is the god of war. He is worshiped by the Spartans for his masculinity and lack of fear in combat. Athena is the sister of Ares, and the two of them clashed twice during the Trojan War. The first time when Ares attempted to intervene against the wishes of Zeus, and the second when Zeus finally permitted Olympians to join the fray.

Apotheon
In Apotheon, Ares is shown to be just as ruthless as he is stubborn. Nikandreos is sent to retrieve the Crest of Ares. Upon meeting Nikandreos, Ares does not attack him at all, nor does he attempt to have Nikandreos arrested. Instead, he leaves Nikandreos to explore the bloodshed arena that is Ares' palace. All around him, soldiers battle for the glory of Ares.

Nikandreos goes after multiple entities in the Agon of Ares, ranging from demigods to giants, killing Phobos and Deimos, Otus and Ephilates, and Diomedes. Upon killing Diomedes, Nikandreos is given a spear that Diomedes used to hurt Ares, and so will still be able to hurt Ares if used by Nikandreos.

Nikandreos, with his new found spear, confronts Ares and stabs him with the spear. After being wounded, Ares is now killable, and he and Nikandreos engage in a fight. Ares is eventually slain by Nikandreos, and his Crest is taken.
