* MightyGlacier: Next to the Olympians, the Titans of both the First and Second Titanomachy are slow but fairly durable. Downplayed somewhat in that they're still very easily taken down by the gods due to a variety of factors listed under SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome.

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: The Olympians, by the time of ''III'', have presumably grown much stronger since the events of the first Titanomachy. If not, the gods still present a huge threat to the Titans due to each of the gods having a winning SuperpowerLottery ticket against which the Titans simply can't measure up; the only reason Cronos maintained his rule for so long before Zeus' coming was because he ate all the gods at birth. Plus, the Titans were brought to the present timeline directly from the tail end of the ''first'' Titanomachy, and when sent to the present, they're essentially fighting against the same enemies that would've defeated them ages ago. Finally, they have to scale Mount Olympus, so all the Olympians have to do is make them lose their grip on the mountainside, then let gravity do the rest. In the end, Kratos' presence is largely the reason why the Titans have any chance whatsoever at toppling Olympus. [[spoiler:Gaia's decision to abandon Kratos to the Underworld in her mad dash to get to Zeus helps spiral the Titanomachy in the gods' favor, but even before then, all but two Titans (Gaia and Perses) are predictably seen getting swept off Olympus before they can even reach Zeus]].

* ArchnemesisDad: To all of the the first Olympians and Zeus in particular, he earned their undying hatred by trying to devour them all in order to preserve his own power forever.

->''"] I am the Titan, Gaia; ever-present Mother of Earth. I have watched you become a powerful warrior, and I have been with you through all the events of your life, but I can no longer simply watch."''

* MinorMajorCharacter: The Titans are one of the fundamental aspects of the Greek mythology and subsequently, the God Of War universe but aside from Gaia, none of them play any substantial role in Kratos's story.

* WorfEffect: Want to establish how badass the gods that Kratos will face are? Have them easily defeat giant beings that are literal embodiments of elements.

* ElementalEmbodiment: He has some earthern features and Magma flows freely in his body.
* EnemyMine: Decides to help Kratos because he hates Zeus more.
* TheGiant: Atlas is obviously the Robert Wadlow of the Titans.
* MultiArmedAndDangerous: Four arms.

* SealedEvilInACan: He can't escape from his prison, although Persephone makes an attempt as springing him in ''Chains of Olympus''.

* OurTitansAreDifferent: While they share their mythologycal counterparts' status as the gods before the gods,

* TooDumbToLive: [[spoiler: He actually thought swallowing Kratos whole without stripping him of his weapons was a sure way to defeat him. He couldn't have been more wrong.]]

* RevengeBeforeReason: She's so hellbent on getting her revenge on Zeus that she [[Spoiler:throws Kratos, one of the only factors allowing her second Titanomachy to even last longer than a few seconds, down the bus in order to get a shot at returning to the top of Mount Olympus to take down Zeus himself.]]

* EverybodysDeadDave: Not a single titan remains standing by the end of ''III'': most of them perish just ''trying'' to reach the top of Mount Olympus, and [[spoiler:Kratos kills the two who did manage to get there; Perses with the blades of olympus, and Gaia as collateral damage during his fight against Zeus.]]

->'''Voiced by:''' Dee Dee Rescher (English)[[labelnote:additional [=VAs=]]]Ludmila Ilyina (Russian)[[/labelnote]]

The Titan condemned to hold up the sky for all eternity. Brother of Prometheus and Epimetheus.

* TooDumbToLive: Lets see, Gaia makes the decision to betray Kratos and let him fall off Olympus, when he's knocked off her shoulder and asking her for help. Helping him would've been impossible for her to do, however rather than explain that to him, she streets to invoke YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness, despite being well aware of just [[KillTheGod how]] [[TheBerserker dangerous]] [[AxCrazy Kratos]] [[UnstoppableRage is]], and how vengeful he can be. Even worse, it's implied that the gods have grown to be far more powerful than the Titans, meaning Kratos was essential in their plan to overthrow the gods. Had Gaia been successful in getting Kratos killed, she would've just gotten absolutely destroyed by Zeus.

* TooDumbToLive: Gaia makes the decision to betray Kratos and let him fall off Olympus, telling him that he was only ever a means to an end. It gets even worse since, as stated multiple times, the Titans didn't stand a chance against the gods themselves, and they needed to have Kratos on their side. This is partially justified due to the fact that Gaia was scaling the walls of Olympus and was in a position where it was physically impossible for her to save Kratos without putting herself at grave risk, but the TooDumbToLive part comes back full force when, rather than simply tell Kratos that she can't rescue him, she decides to instead tell Kratos (who she knows is incredibly vengeful to those who betray/use him) he was nothing more than a pawn for her. This [[CruelAndUnusualDeath ends poorly for her]].

* BadassBaritone: Courtesy of the late, great Michael Clarke Duncan.

* NotQuiteDead: [[spoiler:In the third game, Kratos severs her arm and sends her tumbling into an abyss. She returns in the climax of the game and attempts to kill both Zeus and the protagonist.]]

* TooDumbToLive: I think it goes without saying that betraying [[TheBerserker someone]] [[AxCrazy like]] [[UnstoppableRage Kratos]] is just a death wish. It gets even worse since, as stated multiple times, the Titans didn't stand a chance against the gods themselves, and they needed to have Kratos on their side. This is partially justified due to the fact that Gaia was scaling the walls of Olympus and was in a position where it was physically impossible for her to save Kratos without putting herself at grave risk, but the TooDumbToLive part comes back full force when, rather than tell Kratos that she can't rescue him, she decides to instead tell Kratos (who she knows is incredibly vengeful to those who betray/use him) he was nothing more than a pawn for her. Take a wild guess on how that [[CruelAndUnusualDeath ended for her]].
