The Hateful, later revealed as Hertha the Hateful, is an accursed Draugr who appeared in the nine realms and introduced as a mini boss in God of War: Ragnarök.
Appearance[]
Hertha's appearance is the same as a draugr's fiendish but more humanoid female with glowing purple eyes indicating she's more powerful and formidable.
Codex[]
God of War Ragnarök[]
I have never encountered a Draugr like this one before It fights as if fueled by an infinite hate. It emerged from a scar in the earth that closed once we defeated the monster. If we encounter more of these holes, we must close them and put down any creatures that emerge.
Mimir has identified her as a former Empress, called Hertha. I do not care who she ruled over, I will put her back in the ground.
Valhalla[]
Valhalla chose to pull from my mind the most memorable Draugr we ever faced in battle-a former empress named "Hertha" who undeniably earned her title of "The Hateful". Once again, she moved with a ferocity that was relentless and powerful. It is a reminder of how I miss your presence not only as my son, but as a reliable ally in combat.
In God of War Ragnarök[]
History[]
Hertha was once a former empress who died at an unknown point in time. Due to being fueled by unending hatred, this caused her to deny her own death and was transformed and twisted into a Draugr, in which she would viciously and wildly attack anyone that encounters her.
God of War Ragnarök[]
This time, Hertha along with rageful Draugrs are now capable of spawning through Draugr holes, burning fissures that can be found in various realms. Kratos came across her several times on different occasions but was eventually able to put her down for good.
Powers and Abilities[]
The Hateful's abilities are the same as the Dual-Wielding Draugr but more powerful and equipped with a weapon in each hand. The Hateful can chain together a flurry of attacks quickly, leaving little room to react. Being more offensively minded, look to parry their attacks instead of rapidly dodging them.
Trivia[]
- The Hateful is the only draugr who has a name and is an optional Draugr boss in the whole game in God of War Ragnarök and God of War Ragnarök: Valhalla (though, The Hateful's illusion).
