[edit] Greek Mythology
Satyrs are creatures from Greek myth. They are depicted as being a mix between goats and men. They are known for drinking wine, and chasing Nymphs.
[edit] In the God of War Series
Found in both God of War and God of War II, Satyrs are very talented warriors and are armed with a double bladed staff which can be broken down when needed into two separate sword-like axes. Kratos also encounters a type called a Hades Satyr during his journey through the Underworld in God of War. In God of War II, another type of Satyr, called Satyr Champions, are seen. When encountering a Satyr great caution should be used. When getting close to a Satyr, press the circle button and Kratos will attempt to wrestle away the Satyr's weapon with a button mash prompt. When this is done, Kratos pushes the weapon down, stabs the Satyr in the chest, and spins them away with a punch. When close to death, grabbing them will result in an uppercut which knocks them out cold, followed by impaling them with their own weapon.
Satyrs also appear in God of War: Chains of Olympus. They look slightly different than the Satyrs in the previous God of War games, being a little smaller and more goat-like. Kratos mostly encounters them around the Temple of Helios. As weapons, they wield two sai, and attack with fast leaping strikes. Kratos can damage them by grabbing them, and then throwing them over his shoulder. After doing enough damage to them, he can grab them from behind, and cut their throat to kill them. A more powerful version called the Dark Satyr is also found in the Underworld.
From concept arts found on the internet and game magazines, it is confirmed that the Satyrs will appear in God of War III.
