|Description=A towering being even amongst most individuals of tall stature, John Aaron has a way of leaving an impression even with those that only passingly observe him. It could be the mix of height and build, the way he carries himself in such a manner as if wherever he looks he is simply observing another portion of his kingdom. Or it could be the severity of his gaze when eyes are met, an intensity that is seen usually only in the gaze of intent birds of prey. Whatever it is, however, he is a being that seems to draw the eye at times through action if not countenance.<br><br>He is well past six and a half feet tall, and his physique is rather defined. He has the silhouette of a man who has been cut from marble and looks as if he would own a gym if not frequent it. Currently he wears nothing to stand out terribly. Brown work boots cover his feet and are in turn covered by a pair of faded blue jeans that have seen better days. A white t-shirt is tucked into his pants and over that shirt is a loose red flannel jacket. Usually he wears a few days growth of beard, and today is no exception. | |Description=A towering being even amongst most individuals of tall stature, John Aaron has a way of leaving an impression even with those that only passingly observe him.

A true natural born son of Zeus and Hera. The man who should be king. Of the gods. Curse you, Hercules.<br><br>Ares came into existence three thousand years ago as one of the two gods of war. He represents the dark side of war. He represents the evil and primal abandon of those who embrace the animalistic side of conflict. He represents those who seek glory and who revel in bloodshed. No other god matched him in this regard. He embodied armed conflict entirely, he was a cruel, heartless, dark creature that exulted in mayhem. For that was his word, that was his role. He excelled, and yet... he was not accepted.<br><br>He did not fit into the hierarchy of Olympus. The other deities were refined, were comfortable amongst each other despite the great competition between them in the eternal game of one upmanship. They played the eternal jockeying for position, to gain each other's favor and to win little victories over each other. His family repeatedly would set him against others for their amusement. Quiet mockery would be made of his rough aggression, his unfinished ways. Yet whenever war reared its ugly head, whenever a battle was needed did they call for Athena? Oh certainly at first. But then when the battle turned, when blood needed to be spilt and worlds destroyed... they called for their hound, for the true son of Zeus.<br><br>This continued for what seemed like eternity, and then the greatest insult was given. Hercules was born and doted upon by Zeus. At first the other gods channeled his anger at the young demi-god, and they had a great many battles. But eventually... Ares realized that his true opponent was his father. Oh Hercules deserves death assuredly. But Zeus was ever seeking to manipulate, to control.<br><br>That was, until, Olympus herself was besieged. The other gods were desperate, even Hercules could not turn back the tide of otherworldly creatures. Ares was called, and despite the anger and wroth offered between him and his ilk, he answered. He was unleashed upon the other army, destroying, defiling, dismantling their entire war machine and making sure the enemies of Olympus could never rise again...<br><br>And yet what was his reward? Mockery. Embarrassment. This feral creature could not be a god? This monster could not be allowed amongst the refined individuals of the gods. Yet before the arguments could go further Ares rose, he roared his anger and denounced his family. To the underworld with them. He forswore his oaths and turned his back on the Olympians. No more to face their enemies. No, he returned to Earth and there decided to embrace the life of a mortal as best as he could. <br><br>Two hundred years ago he took on several lives, took on the role of mortality. Only today, however, is he perhaps fully beginning to understand what it means to be mortal, now responsible for a mortal child and trying to exist as a simple man. A man named John Aaron. | ||
|Personality=John Aaron of today is a mellowed man to a degree. He is a man who has lived several lifetimes as a mortal, has embraced the role as fully as possible, taking on causes and at times even arms for those around him. Never as Ares, still to this day spurning the guise of the God of War. He tries to conduct himself as a calm and decent individual, perhaps simple in his tastes and open with his affection with the few who have won it.<br><br>Yet beneath it all he is still the same slavering raging beast. He hides it well, yet it is such an effort. Every day he focuses upon keeping his anger and desire for wild mayhem and battle in check. He is a primal force in this regard, and when he gives himself to it he truly exults in it. But as for now he tries to keep it under control. | |Personality=John Aaron of today is a mellowed man to a degree.

|Abilities=<span style="color:# | |Abilities=<span style="color:#00CED1">'''DARKNESS MANIPULATION'''</span><br>Due to besting Hades in a duel at one point in time, Ares was blessed with power over darkness, and can use such darkness for beams, energy blasts, explosions, etc. He can use it also to entrap instead of for lethal purposes.<br><br><span style="color:#00CED1">'''DIVINE ELECTROKINESIS'''</span><br>Oh...Ares has picked a fight with Zeus on more than one occasion. But through unknown methods, Ares can channel a fraction of Zeus's divine lightning and use it to smite his foes. Likely the most powerful strike in his arsenal as it can be used, at best, to level mountains and then some. He can channel it through his body with ease and release the power. It's only flaw? he has to take it from the sky.<br><br><span style="color:#00CED1">'''FLIGHT'''</span><BR>Ares has the ability to fly, hover, and levitate with tremendous ease. Once, he ruled in the heavens with the other gods of the pantheon before he denounced every single one of them. Even now, he still possesses the ability to fly. His max speed is about 300mph.<BR><BR><span style="color:#00CED1">'''INVULNERABILITY'''</span><BR>Ares, as an Olympian God, cannot be killed or damaged by regular, normal means. As such, Ares' invulnerability is arguably equivalent to that of the Martian Manhunter or even Superman, which allowed him to survive and withstand the full force of massive explosions, powerful blows from godlike beings, and even a strike of lightning from Zeus himself without any kind of permanent damage.<BR><BR><span style="color:#00CED1">'''METAMORPHOSIS'''</span><BR>Due to his godly powers, Ares can transform himself into animals as to hide his appearance from others or to simply act in accordance to his will. He often appears in the form of a crow when he goes -really- incognito. though his second favorite is that of a lion. However, someone who can feel divinity or with a strong sense of magic, or even a strong sense of awareness could allow him to be noticed.<br><br><span style="color:#00CED1">'''OLYMPIAN PHYSIOLOGY'''</span><BR>As an Olympian God, Ares possesses extremely powerful physical and magical traits that would befall into his pantheon, making him an extremely dangerous foe. He is immune to all mundane diseases and toxins, doesn't need to eat, drink, or sleep in order to survive. Also, he is quite effectively immortal as an Olympian God, though he can still be killed by a few means. However, Ares can be affected by enhanced brews or potions that could intoxicate him, as well as illnesses of a divine or mystic origin. the former affects him far more than the latter.<BR><BR><span style="color:#00CED1">'''SUPER SPEED'''</span><BR>Ares is -fast-. The God of war can react and move up to supersonic speeds. Impressively, he's been known to be faster than bullets, able to catch them in his hand and render them absolutely useless against him. He can keep up with beings like Superman and hold his own with a sense of superiority, though his ultimate limit is unknown as to how fast he can move.<BR><BR><span style="color:#00CED1">'''SUPER STRENGTH'''</span><BR>Ares possesses a godlike strength, able to trade blows and face off against the likes of Wonder Woman and Superman. He can easily lift well over 100 tons and even beyond that if he's really trying.. he can throw towers, buildings, ships...all easily. He's overpowered some of the strongest heroes quite often in feats of strength alone.<BR><BR><span style="color:#00CED1">'''TELEKINESIS'''</span><BR>Ares can move, hurl and manipulate objects' movements to an immense degree with mere hand gestures, able to throw tanks around like ragdolls and push people back with sheer force of willpower. given, you won't see him levitating buildings with his mind, but still...he often uses this power to 'toy' with his opponents and get inside their heads. Gives him an advantage.<BR><BR><span style="color:#00CED1">'''TELEPORTATION'''</span><BR>As a god, Ares is able to teleport from one place to another instantly. Primarily this ability is used to travel between Earth and Olympus or other Pantheon dimensions, but it can also be used to travel to other locations on Earth. However this form of teleportation is slow and requires several minutes of concentration, so is useless in a combat situation unless he has several minutes uninterrupted.<BR><BR><span style="color:#00CED1">'''THERMOKINESIS'''</span><BR>Ares is the wielder of the sacred flame of Olympus. As such, he can power his attacks with the mighty flames, able to create massive whirlwinds of pure fire to wreak havoc upon his foes. Though it's effectiveness will grow depending on how much violence goes on in the world.<BR><BR><span style="color:#00CED1">'''WAR EMPOWERMENT'''</span><BR>Ares is the god of war, conflict, and bloodlust. Where war or extreme violence persist, it serves as a form of worship to Ares even if they don't know it. the more there is? the stronger he will become.<BR><BR><span style="color:#00CED1">'''WEAPONRY'''</span><BR>As the God of War, Ares is able to summon to him a myriad of weapons suitable to conflict. He can draw forth axes, swords, maces, almost any variation of weaponry should he need. These extend to firearms, but never something larger than he can physically wield. These weapons are usually magical in nature, at times connected to mystical phenomenon of the past, capable of cleaving through most other non-magical objects or breaking the heaviest of armors. | ||
|Skills=<span style="color:#00CED1">'''CONSTRUCTION'''</span><BR>Of late, John Aaron has focused his life on the trade of construction. This expertise reaches across a myriad of projects. He has worked on a site constructing skyscrapers and doing high iron work, all the way to helping an acquaintance construct his own home. He is knowledgeable of carpentry, plumbing, even electrical work. However, this work does not come easy to him, it takes more focus than normal yet he is able to make a living at it.<BR><BR><span style="color:#00CED1">'''FARMING'''</span><BR>Several lifetimes ago, Ares attempted to give it a go as a farmer in several time periods. He has not been successful. He has a decent passing knowledge with it, knows what the right methods are to employ depending on soil type... yet he is terrible at getting things to grow and thrive. Even his houseplants at home always die messily.<BR><BR><span style="color:#00CED1">'''LEADERSHIP'''</span><BR>Though his sister Athena is perhaps the better leader, not that he would admit it, there are few others as capable as him at the leading of men. Whether it's into battle or to focus on a shared endeavour, he is extremely good at reading his men and getting them motivated. He knows how to set focus, how to delegate, and is exceptional at keeping them on task. He inspires not just from his godhood, but also from leading by example and with a good dose of charisma.<BR><BR><span style="color:#00CED1">'''MAGIC'''</span><BR>Ares has a great knowledge of magic and the occult, having been around when humans were even barely just discovering it for themselves. As such, he has a great deal of skill in -casting- magic as well, having a host of such knowledge becoming incredibly helpful when he -really- wants to be incognito.<BR><BR><span style="color:#00CED1">'''MASTER COMBATANT'''</span><BR>What is there to say about the God of War in battle? He has so few peers in this regard. Is there a weapon that exists? He is deadly with it. Is there a fighting style that died out thousands of years ago? He is a master of it. He is the God of War. He is no pushover whatsoever when it comes to doing what his status actually entails. He's easily capable of matching the best fighters in the world in pure combat skill alone. | |||
|Resources=<span style="color:#00CED1">'''AREOPAGUS'''</span><br>Areopagus is literally a mirror dimension of Mount Olympus...just with a huge influence on 'Ares was here'. This serves as his personal base of operations as the God of War. Almost all of the war beasts, artifacts, weapons, etc. inside of this mighty realm are world killers, powerful weapons of mass destruction that Ares has claimed in battle and rarely has a reason to actually use. (creatures/weapons/artifacts TP only)<br><br><span style="color:#00CED1">'''ARTIFACTS'''</span><br>Some people would call these antiques. THEY ARE WRONG. The God of War does not go antiquing. However, over his lifetime of bloody plunder he has accrued a good amount of nigh unto priceless artifacts over the years. These are in places of holding across the world, some of them mystical but mostly mundane. He has access to ancient pieces of artwork, historical weapons, and many precious metals and gems from ages past.<br><br><span style="color:#00CED1">'''EMPLOYMENT'''</span><br>Ares is gainfully employed by local Construction Union #447. He thusly makes pretty darn good money. Not that he needs it hugely, but it gives a good cover for his lifestyle which is fairly modest. He has a good house in Queens, a decent SUV, and can afford a few luxuries now and then. | |||
|Weaknesses=<span style="color:#00CED1">'''AMULET OF HARMONIA'''</span><br>An ancient artifact, whoever wields the amulet of Harmonia, they will be able to damage and possibly even easily kill the God of War, since it is -incredibly- poisonous and toxic for him. If he ever had a brush with this? bad news....<br><br><span style="color:#00CED1">'''HERCULES'''</span><br>Man, if there's one thing that gets under Ares' skin it's that upstart Hercules. Doted on by dad and treated like the golden child. Life is really unfair. But really, if there is one person in the world that Ares would make unexist, it would be Hercules. It seems like no matter what his half-brother does, it always riles Ares up and there is little chance the two will ever see eye to eye.<br><br><span style="color:#00CED1">'''HIND'S BLOOD'''</span><br>As a Greek deity, Ares is especially vulnerable to the blood of the Golden Hind. It is capable of poisoning and crippling Ares to the point of helplessness, and with extended exposure could end in death.<br><br><span style="color:#00CED1">'''PEACEFUL WEAKENING'''</span><br>Ares is the God of War, thus is the opposite of war, peace, being his conceptual and ideological foe. In times of peace and prayer, when conflict is avoided instead of engaged, Ares will find himself weakened. For example, the Pope initiating a day of prayer for peace wouldn't exactly be the best day for Ares to pick a scrap, especially if it's against someone powerful.<br><br><span style="color:#00CED1">'''RAGE'''</span><br>Underneath it all, Ares is a primal being of utter rage and bloodlust. He has a reasonable amount of control over it at this point, but it is entirely feasible other beings might be able to manipulate him and aim him like a weapon by playing upon his anger. It usually takes more than just offering insult, but a clever individual would be able to create a scenario where he could set the God of War off like a weapon.<br><br><span style="color:#00CED1">'''RITUALISTIC MAGIC AND PRAYER'''</span><br>As a magical being and deity Ares is vulnerable to certain rituals when undertaken by individuals of either a mix of magical power, direct connection, powerful worship, or similar. It is possible for him to be summoned and bound by a powerful enough magic-user and petitioned for a boon or the like, at the most bound to a geas of a sort. Though other immortals or peers from other pantheons can call or summon, the binding is only possible by beings of finite cognition or mortality. It is also feasible for prayers or petitions to be heard but only if sufficient connection and sacrifice be made, strong enough to draw attention. Though the risks of such are considerable. | |||
