The Cursed Legionnaire are minor undead enemies, first encountered near the Docks of Athens. As opposed to the Undead Legionnaires, they appear more armored, carry larger and stronger swords, and are more skilled at fighting.
Also, they must be first weakened to allow Kratos to grab them, unlike the Undead Legionnaires. Additionally, they can grab Kratos and attempt to throw him to the ground.
In God of War, they are the most frequent enemies Kratos encounters throughout the city of Athens, and in Pandora's Temple.
In God of War II, they're encountered throughout the Island of Creation, mainly in the Temple of Euryale, and through the path to the Loom Chamber.
After weakening and stunning them, Kratos can kill them the same way he kills the standard Undead Legionnaires.

Trivia[]
In the God of War II novel, it is implied that the Cursed Legionnaires became cursed due to their betrayal of Zeus, pledging their allegiance to the Persian god Zahhak (who is actually an evil king in Persian myth) in a desperate attempt to save their lives after their defeat at the Isle of Propontis. However, this allegiance only brought about their doom, as they were soon defeated in battle by the Greeks, and Zeus, in his wrath, condemned them to an eternity of fighting, dying, and being resurrected.
