Name: Ares
Parents: Zeus, Hera
God of: War
Symbol: none
Roman Name: Mars
Notes: Unlike Athena, Ares loved war and reveled in violence. His constant companion was Eris, goddess of discord. Ares also romanced Aphrodite from a distance, enthralling her with tales of his victory and might. Unfortunately, he was actually a big coward, and often ran to his mother, Hera, when he was hurt.
