Story
Ares is considered a contrast with Athena, who in war prioritized the strategy. In general, he was accompanied by his sons Phodos and Deimos, fear and terror when he was in battle.
Her physical beauty and seductive behavior would be the elements that attracted Aphrodite, married to Hephaestus. The characteristics marked him like lover of many Amazon women, with whom he had several mortal children.
Involvement with Aphrodite cost him Hephaestus's punishment, and Ares was banished from Olympus temporarily.
Vengeful, he killed Poseidon, after this raping Alkippe, one of his daughters. The divine tribunal acquitted him, and he, once again, was able to remain on Olympus.
His most important battle was fought against Hercules after the warrior killed Kyknos. The fury and the warlike ability were not sufficient in the fight and Ares lost to the demigod, protege of Athena.
He participated in the fighting in the Trojan War, where he is described by his hatred, assassinated and by the impulse to the battle. It was called the "curse of men" in the Iliad.
His quest for combat was disproportionate to force, and Ares is always called weak. There was an occasion when he was beaten by Athena so wounded that, according to the Iliad, she shouted as loud as 10,000 men.
