The initial main villain of the game is a Titan surviving from the great war between the Olympians and titans but in the expansion it becomes Hades and in the Ragnarok expansion it’s some fire giant guy. In Greece your fighting satyrs and harpies while in Egypt you face scorpions and mummies and in China its Yetis and various other creatures of the far east.
