I am the Greek god of war and agriculture. I am one of the Twelve Olympians, and the son of Zeus and Hera. I often represent the physical or violent and untamed aspect of war. I am seen as a dangerous force, "overwhelming, insatiable in battle, destructive, and man-slaughtering." I am the God Zeus hates most. Yet I am also a brave warrior and protector of the Roman Empire and it's people. I favoured the soldiers who fought with courage and honour. I also took Aphrodite as a lover for a bit.
