Is Kratos a real myth?

Yes, Kratos is a real figure in Greek mythology, but the video game character is a vastly different, original creation that coincidentally shares the name, which means "strength" or "power". In myths, Kratos is the divine personification of strength, a minor deity, the winged enforcer for Zeus, and the son of Pallas and Styx, alongside his siblings Nike (Victory), Bia (Force), and Zelus (Rivalry).
