Who will serve wine along with god Dionysus to drive the world insane?

Dionysus is the god of fertility and wine and often considered a patron of the arts. He is known for the duality in his nature- He brings joy and divine ecstasy and he also brings brutal and blinding rage.

Born to Zeus and Semele, he is the only god to have a mortal parent. Dionysus’ mother died after being tricked by the jealous Hera but he was protected by Zeus. He was raised by the mountain nymphs.

In Mortal Arena, he has 4 fearless Greek heroes to help him win the throne of heaven.

Perseus (Legendary Hero)

Perseus was the only son of Zeus and Danae- one of the greatest heroes in Greece. He is famously known as the slayer of Medusa. Perseus had a difficult relationship with his mother when Oracle told her father that Danae’s son would kill him. He tried his best to get rid of Perseus and his mother, but destiny was written differently.

Not only did he survive, but he also beheaded the only mortal Gorgon, Medusa and used her severed head as a mighty weapon in his subsequent adventures. Now he will fight battles for Dionysus.
