For this 'god of war atreus crossover fanfiction', characters like Beowulf would be a great crossover. Beowulf is a heroic figure in Anglo - Saxon literature, and his encounter with Atreus could be a clash of two different heroic cultures. Another one is Aragorn from The Lord of the Rings. Aragorn's leadership and Atreus' growth as a young hero could make for an engaging story. And don't forget about Dante from Devil May Cry. Dante's flamboyant fighting style and Atreus' more reserved Norse combat style could create a really fun dynamic in a crossover.
A possible plot for an Atreus and Percy fanfic could be centered around a prophecy. The prophecy states that only the combined strength of a Norse and a Greek hero can stop an ancient evil from awakening. Atreus and Percy are brought together by this prophecy. At first, they are skeptical of each other because of their different backgrounds and ways of doing things. However, as they start to face the challenges related to the prophecy, such as deciphering ancient texts and fighting off minions of the evil, they gradually learn to trust and rely on each other. In the end, they succeed in preventing the evil from rising, and their friendship becomes a legend in both their worlds.
Well, it depends. Just because the story is based on a real story doesn't necessarily mean the serpent is a literal, physical snake. It could be a symbolic serpent representing something in the real - life events, like a person or an organization that acts in a sneaky or dangerous way, much like how a snake is often seen in literature. But if it is a more straightforward account, then it could be a real snake.
It might be a story about his family, not just his own past but also about Atreus' mother. Kratos could be sharing memories of their life together, how they met, and the kind of person she was. This would give Atreus a deeper connection to his family heritage and a better understanding of his own identity.
The story Kratos told Atreus might have been about his journey to redemption and the lessons he learned along the way. Maybe it included details of the difficult choices he had to make and the consequences of his actions.
Well, 'The Serpent' takes inspiration from actual incidents. It weaves a narrative around real-life circumstances, but with some creative liberties for dramatic effect.
