    You could have also mentioned that in Norse Mythology Loki has two brothers. One of them is Helblindi, who's name means 'hell blind', I think and the other is Býleistr who's name doesn't have a clear translation. In all fairness, they don't do anything in the mythology which is a shame.

    Faye, Kratos' wife is supposed to be Laufey in the GOW games, and Atreus was SUPPOSED to be named Loki, but Kratos was very adamant on Atreus. I think it's neat how they kept some character relations the same in the games compared to the original mythology, even if it isn't historically correct at all.

    All this talk about Kratos, I'm interested if there's any worthwhile content to be made about Deimos, the Greek god of terror
    and also, GoW Kratos had a brother named Deimos, which is why he came to mind
    whats with GoW Kratos' parents naming their kids after semi-obscure Greek deities
