After destroying Olympus and siring another child in Norway, Kratos becomes a more stoic and contemplative character, only bursting out in anger when antagonized or threatened. Although he is sometimes prone to outbursts when disciplining his son, he almost always manages to regain control of himself before doing any damage. He also accepts full responsibility for his actions in Greece, often exhibiting extreme sadness and regret, and at times even falling into a state of depression, when confronted with his past behavior. Kratos initially tries to hide his past from Atreus, both out of fear that he will disown him for it, and fear that he will try to imitate his actions.
