Your Field Guide to Spotting Ares (Mars)
Ares is never too hard to find. Anywhere there's full-scale chaos – riots, bloodshed, murder, mayhem, the Super Bowl – you'll find the god of war. He's almost always wearing his helmet and armor, but sometimes he just wears his helmet and absolutely nothing else. (We're not kidding.) Anyway, if you do come across the god of war while you're on Mount Olympus, you really ought to run the other way – chaos, death, and unhappiness follow him wherever he goes.
