Grumpy Old Kratos 3D Printing Figurine | Assembly

HISTORY OF OLD KRATOS

Born in the Greek city-state of Sparta, Kratos is the demigod son of Zeus and a mortal woman named Callisto, although he would remain unaware of who his father was for most of his life. Outraged at Zeus for fathering yet another bastard child, Hera ordered Kratos' execution on the day he was born, but the King of the Gods took pity on the child and refused, leaving him in Sparta to be raised by Callisto.

Now he is old, but it's still full of energy. And as he had a child and now he needs to prove himself in a new role. In the role of a father...
