Lahkesis

Lahkesis concept art

"None can change their destiny, Kratos. We Sisters determine the fate of all. It was I who deemed that the Titans lose the Great War... and I who have allowed you to come this far." - Lahkesis

Greek Mythology

In Greek mythology, Lahkesis is the second oldest of the three Sisters of Fate and possible the least cruel, who determine the destinies of Gods and mortals alike. It is her duty to "embellish" the Threads of Fate, which then determines how a person lives their life.

God of War II

In God of War II, Lahkesis allowed the Gods to win the Titan War and purposely allowed Kratos to meet with her. Lahkesis is the only sister who Kratos sees and speaks with before he actually confronts them in their temple. When he arrived, she told him he cannot change his fate. But the Ghost of Sparta, fueled by Gaia's encouragement, fought against her at her throne. When he defeats her, she summons Atropos to take him back into the past to his fight with Ares to destroy the Blade of the Gods so he'd die in both time lines. But he stopped the sister and returned to the Throne Room to fight both of them. He then imprisons both of them in a mirror and then shatters it, erasing them from existence.

Powers and Abilities

Lahkesis is very fast, has Super Agility, Premonition, High Resistance, Immortality and can Fly with her wings. Her staff allows her to deliver damaging swipes at Kratos, summon projectiles to throw at him, and deliver a beam of energy to the floor, causing it to damage all who touch it. She can also throw her staff in a boomerang-like style, which causes it to deliver a barrage of falling projectiles, and create large balls of energy which explode after some time. Her staff is only a channel of her abilities, as she can be seen using it for most of her attacks.

Bug Alert

A glitch has been known to occur when Lahkesis swings her staff at Kratos near the bottom most part of the area where the final battle takes place. She becomes stuck, continually swinging her staff, unable to attack or be attacked. This forces the player the restart the battle, meaning that they have to fight Lahkesis and Atropos again. In addition, while fighting Lahkesis and Atropos, after the prompt to slow down time to attack Atropos appears, Atropos will sometimes be nowhere to be found, meaning the player will have to repeat the whole process.

Trivia

  • If Cronos' Rage is used while Lahkesis creates a ball of energy, the two will cancel each other out.
  • Lahkesis is the hottest sister of fate.
