In Greek Mythology, Hera is the goddess of marriage, protector of women, and the Queen of Mount Olympus. She is the wife of Zeus, and also one of the original six Olympian siblings. This also makes her the sister of Zeus as well, along with being the sister of Poseidon, Demeter, Hestia, and Hades. Her Roman equivalent was Juno.
In the God of War series
God of War
Hera, the wife of Zeus, is mentioned in the first God of War as a part of puzzle, where the player has to locate the "Necklace of Hera".
God of War: Betrayal
Hera herself is not in the game, but her beast and favorite pet, the giant Argos, appears in the game to stop Kratos. After it is killed by unknown assassin, Kratos is blamed by the Gods for its murder, at the same time being stopped from uncovering the truth.
God of War III
Hera is confirmed to appear in God of War III as a boss. In order for Kratos to extinguish the The Flame of Olympus he must pass and find his way through Hera's Garden marble-walled garden prison. It is also mentioned that Hera's Cup helps solve the game's most ingenious puzzle. As a boss, it is unknown what weapon or relic Kratos will gain after he kills her. She is to wield a sword in the battle. It is said that Kratos will use the strangled corpse of a goddess to solve a puzzle later on in the game, and it is speculated that it may be Hera's. The irony with Hera being an opponent is that she wouldn't be an ally to Kratos as she despised Zeus for his constant adulterous escapades with other women. Although, instead of fighting to protect Zeus, she is probably fighting to protect Mount Olympus. She tries to kill Kratos by sending in Hercules.
She is later found weakened within her garden where she taunt Kratos who at first ignores her, but later pushes her to the ground as she continues and finally snaps her neck.
