Ares

Ares

  The god of war, Ares, was the child of Zeus and Hera. Ares was bloodthirsty and loved war. His symbol was a blood tipped spear, or a boar. He was very violent and ready to fight anyone. He had an affair with Aphrodite, who was unhappily married to Hephaestus. He had three children with Aphrodite who would follow him into war; Phobos (Fear), Deimos (Terror), and Eris (Discord). In the myths, he was often humiliated through his defeats.
