History
Athanasius was born in ancient Greece, Corinth to be more spesific. He grew up with father as a local farm, learning how to take care of the cattle, sheep and what they were planting. But what he didn't know was that he was an experiment of sorts, in a rare show of truce between Athena, the Goddess of Wisdom and Ares, the God of War. They had been forced to make truce by their father Zeus, and in doing so they decided to make a child with their combined essence, now seeing as Athena couldn't concieve children the natural way, she and Ares planted their respective essences within a mortal woman, and through her their child was born. Sadly the woman died during the birth, her mortal body was not fit to carry the child who held the divinity of not one but /two/ gods.
Athanasius was an unnaturally quite for a child, often scaring away the other children from playing with him as he grew up, and once in a while he would get involved in fights with them. Like the one time he saw another boy harrassing a street dog, Athanasius had marched right up and beaten the boy down, and decided to take the dog home to treat it. Ever since then the dog never left his side, and over the years began to grow into an unnatural size for what they thought was a normal dog, and learned it might be more to it, seeing as it had fur as black as nigth and eyes as red as blood.
Over the years Athanasius grew, becoming a young man, and one day he met an older woman, who had asked for his help home. He had accepted, and after he lead her to a small hut on the outskirts of Corinth city she had thanked him, and gifted him with a beautiful sword and a set of armor. He had refused at first, but she insisted on it, claiming that he was worthy and that it was meant for him. Hesitating, he had accepted the gifts, and a moment later the old woman revealed to be Athena, claiming that he was her and Ares' child.
After talking to her for a bit, telling him to go out and explore the world and do as he wished. He had thanked her and did as she told, doning the armor and spear as he traveled the world, making a name for himself as he fought wars and protected the innocent.
"But as the years went by, Athanasius was shown the true horrors and glories of war. He killed and killed and killed, in the name of humanity, to protect the people or simply for money. And while he became a beast of wrath on the battlefield, his mortal side just couldn't handle all the death and destruction, leaving him broken yet sane"
Extra
