Instead of hitting their heads on the ground to weaken them and breaking their backs to kill them, like with the other Sirens, Kratos does the opposite: if a Siren Sibyl is stunned (golden halo above her head), the Spartan will hug and tighten her with his arms strongly three times, making them scream at each time, forming electric shockwaves. They can also teleport over small distances. They use electric attacks against Kratos in the form of an electric wail and throwing lightning bolts. They appear to him as half naked women with a Glasgow smile and horrible teeth. The Siren Sibyl are seen in God of War: Ascension, making them the first Siren Kratos has fought against. Atreus, unsettled by the story, jokes to Kratos that he's glad that he didn't drink seawater. Seeing the danger, Kratos and the other sailors threw them overboard, where the sailors were killed and consumed by the sirens. The sea water caused the sailors to believe that the nearby sirens were their wives and daughters back home, causing the sailors to try to steer the ship into the rocks. While Kratos was on one of his voyages, the food and water supplies ran out which forced some of the sailors to consume seawater in desperation. In God of War (2018), Kratos tells a story of them to Atreus while the pair were in Alfheim. After weakening them enough, he can kill them by snapping their backs, stepping on their heads (see Siren Sibyl), or by piercing his blades into their breasts and then swinging and slamming them over his head and into the ground. In God of War III, they make more appearances in a few areas in Olympus and in the Labyrinth.ĭepending on the species, Kratos can damage Sirens through a variety of attacks such as squeezing them, slamming their heads, and hurling them.

In God of War II, Sirens are seen less often than in the first game, but they do appear at a few spots throughout the Island of Creation. Afterwards, they are encountered throughout Pandora's Temple as well. They are first encountered in God of War when Kratos is wandering the Desert of Lost Souls (see Desert Sirens). Killing them brutally always yields Kratos magic orbs. Sirens are not found too often in the God of War series, but if encountered, they usually come in pairs and attack Kratos with a variety of magical abilities. However, it is revealed that Sirens' face is a decomposing flesh. In the God of War series, Sirens appear as beautiful, youthful women with a long, flowing dark hair. They lost their bird-like forms and grew scaly fish-like tails and regained their great beauty. Their corpses became dangerous rocks and reefs. It is said that the Sirens are compelled to die if a man can hear them without being lured, so when Odysseus survived their song, the Sirens threw themselves into the sea. Years later, in The Odyssey, Odysseus sails past them on his journey home by asking his men to cover their ears with wax and tying him to the ship's mast, preventing him from trying to reach them. Jason and the Argonauts also sailed past them on their quest for the Golden Fleece with the help of Orpheus, the divine singer and poet who was among them: Orpheus sang and played his lyre in such a harmonious way that the Sirens gave up and stopped singing, eliminating their threat. Originally, they were maids of Persephone, but when they did not help her when she was taken by Hades, Demeter transformed them into ugly birds with the heads of women as punishment. They were said to be the daughters of Phorkys and Keto, which also makes them sisters of Scylla, Charybdis and the Gorgons. In Greek myth, the Sirens were a group of beautiful women who lived on an island in the sea, and sang songs to lure sailors to their death.
