Who is Faye in God of War Ragnarok?
Laufey The Just, popularly known as Faye, was a renowned frost giant from Jotunheim. She was the second wife of Kratos and the mother of Atreus. She had the powerful ability of foresight which helped her in predicting her own demise and preparing her husband and son. At some point, Faye discovers her husband Kratos’ true identity as a God as well as his tragic past but kept it hidden from her son Atreus.
A Fearless Warrior
Faye was a formidable fighter amongst all the giants in the realm. Along with her fierce warrior skills, Faye brought a deep sense of compassion and was respected by many for her fairness. Benevolent in nature and a fearsome guardian of Jotunheim, she fought valiantly against the cruelty of her people and kept them safe from every harm.
The dwarf brothers Brok and Sindri were responsible for forging The Leviathan Axe for Faye which was later passed on to Kratos after her death. It has since become Kratos’ main weapon of destruction in GOW (2018) and GOW Ragnarok.
The Aftermath of her death
Her death in the opening sequences of GOW (2018) is the defining moment that sets the game’s plot into motion. Faye’s death is also instrumental in bringing the father-son duo together as they embark on their adventurous journey to scatter her ashes at the highest point of the Nine Realms. Much like she envisaged, her husband and son bond over time as they seek to uncover the truth and ultimately become a force to be reckoned with!
