Injustice: Gods Among Us Part 4A: Ares intro


Ares is a fictional character, a supervillainous Greek god appearing in DC Comics publications and related media. Based upon the Greek mythological figure of the same name, he is the God of War and one of the major adversaries of Wonder Woman.

Game Description
“The Greek god of war, Ares, thrives on conflict. Thus, he does everything he can to stoke the fires of mankind’s wars, much to the consternation of Wonder Woman and her fellow Amazons.”

Powers and Abilities
As do all the immortal Olympian gods, Ares possesses tremendous strength, though he is now perhaps the strongest of them, rivaled only by Heracles. Moreover, he is a master of conflict and strategy with centuries of experience in the field, and has complete telekinetic command and mastery over any weapon. He also possesses superhuman speed and superhuman agility equal to that of Hermes once he absorbs massive amounts of the psychic energies that give him his powers. Pertaining to his being a war god, violence, anger, hate, death, and bloodshed make him stronger and heals any wounds he may receive as his soul is able to absorb the psychic energy created by such events. His armor is virtually indestructible and his weapons are greater than mortal ones. He can shapeshift his being into any form he wishes and can teleport himself and others. He is now also recognized as the Death God of the Greek Pantheon and thus has control over the dead and is able to resurrect and command a whole army of undead from the Underworld to do his will and then send them back whenever he wishes. Being a god, he is also immortal and cannot be harmed by mortal weapons, only magical ones.
