Breaking Boundaries: An Unexpected God of War Genderbent Cosplay Combines Ragnarök and Breaking Bad

A cosplayer has introduced God of War’s Kratos to Reddit using the Leviathan Axe, and Walter White, who was turned Mimir.

Kratos might face some competition before God of War Ragnarok‘s release after cosplayers put their spin on the god of war.

Reddit user, u/BootlegMoon, posted their rendition of the Ghost of Sparta as a female version in all its fierce glory. The costume features a replica of the Leviathan Axe. It also features armor and fur, Kratos’ red tattoos, and the shoulders and head of Mimir. In a post about the prop that was decapitated, BootlegMoon says that Mimir’s head started as an original Walter White mask before it was stuffed, glued, and then lightly painted to create the desired look. As for what part of the costume BootlegMoon enjoyed the most they said, “Mimir was probably the most fun to put together.”

The main character of the God of War franchise is Kratos. He began his career as a Sparta soldier and later made the hero of Ares in return to turn the tide in a terrible battle. Ares used Kratos to great effect, before causing him to murder his family members in a frenzied outrage. This was his revenge against the gods which earned him the title Ghost of Sparta.

It was believed that Kratos’ story ended after the God of War 3. After slaying his father Zeus to death and systematically murdering the remainder of the Greek pantheon, Spartan sacrificed his life to bring the power of hope to the world which was kept by Pandora’s Box, and later Kratos. His fate was a mystery until the God of War soft reboot in the year 2018.
