Strife

Strife, the self-proclaimed God of Skirmishes, was the nephew of Ares and cousin of Deimos.

Being a lesser deity, Strife constantly tried to prove himself to his "Uncle Ares" by helping him in his various plots as well as his schemes to kill or hurt Hercules. It had been revealed that if Ares were to ever die or become mortal, Strife would move up in the hierarchy as God of War though he constantly batted with Discord for the position.
