Fan Casting The Architect in Steven S. DeKnight's God of War

The cursed builder of Pandora's Temple. Once the greatest architect in the world, he committed the sin of building a temple to honor man, not the gods. As punishment, Zeus chained him to Cronos and forced him to build forever. He is bitter, ironic, and ancient—weary of heroes who fail. He tests Kratos with impossible mazes, dies, resurrects, and finally turns to ash when Kratos proves worthy. Pride was his weakness; rage is Kratos'.
