War God was supposed to be the deity of warfare but was also the god of life. The Goddess of War can also be called the Goddess of Life due to the fact that war is synonymous with struggle, and life is a constant struggle for survival. She was also the goddess of progress, technology, craft, and intellect. Hence, she was the patron goddess of humanity.[1]
Appearance
...an ancient statue of a beautiful woman wielding a spear in one hand, and gripping a beating human heart in the other, her nakedness covered only by a beast hide tied around her thighs, her face lost in the shadows.
— Representation of War God in Altar of War, Chapter 601 Kingdom of Hope |
The statues of the God of War, in the Kingdom of Hope, all depicted him as a mighty warrior in heavy armor, wielding a bloodied spear and a cracked shield. But it did not resemble the one in the Altar of War.[2]
There are two depictions of the War God in the Kingdom of Hope:[3]
- A warrior in heavy armor, wielding a bloodied spear and a cracked shield — representing warfare and battle.
- A woman wearing nothing but a beast hide around her waist, holding a spear in one hand and a beating human heart in another — the spear representing her dominion over war, technology, and craft, the heart representing her connection to life and humanity.
In Chapter 3181, War appeared as an old woman who seemed like a homeless beggar. She had a weathered face with deep lines crossing it, and her hair was grey and gathered into a messy braid. Her clothes were covered in the red dust of the road, and they were worn and unremarkable, with frayed edges. She had set up a small campfire in the desert and was warming her hands in front of it, while a simple spear lay on the ground beside her. She had appeared emotionless as she looked into the flame, seemingly ignoring the approaching procession completely.
Realm
Earth was distinct among the Divine Realms due to its patron deity, War God. The laws she set for her own Realm are still intact and because of these laws, Earth was historically free from true sorcery, Awakened beings, and mythical creatures. It was also the last realm to be infected by the Nightmare Spell and would be the last to fall.[4]
History
- In Sunny's First Nightmare, the Empire, protected by the War God, had burned down a few temples of the Shadow God.[5]
- In the Second Nightmare, the followers of War God and Sun God, in the Kingdom of Hope, seemed to be in conflict with each other, and so were the lords leading them.[2]
Trivia
- The War God's lineage was inherited by Valor Clan.[6]
- The Altar of War is the island where the primeval statue of the Goddess of Life stood. This depiction of the deity seemed much more primal, bestial ancient. The statue itself was incredibly ancient, as ancient as the Red Colosseum itself, or even older. It was old enough to have been created before the Kingdom of Hope was shattered and turned into a chain of floating islands by Sun God.[3]
- War God did not like Shadow God at all. In many ways, they are the opposite of each other.[7]
- Sunny suspected Earth was the War God's Divine Realm.[8]
- War stated that the saving grace of existence for the gods is "oblivion" in Chapter 3183.
- The Dragon was the former avatar of War God, who was also the founder of the War Empire.[9]
