Schlacht, or sometimes referred to as the Beast (Tier), King of Beasts (König der Tiere), Dog of War (Hund des Krieges), and the Berserker (Wütend); is the Commoner god of battle, beasts, rage, and strength. According to various myths; Schlacht is known also as the Aggressor (Angreifer) and Defender (Verteidiger). Schlacht is characterized as one of the fiercest and rage driven Angels; among being both powerful and dangerous. In various artwork, he is projected as dominating wild beasts, demons, and wild animals. Much to the dislike of many beings in TECT Mythology; Schlacht is one of the most dangerous opponents in battle. His ability in combat is stated to be immense and his strength unmatched by most opponents. Schlacht is also known as the Angel of weapons; a gifted trait he received from his father Krieg -- Schlacht is known to equip and pull any weapon or shield from thin air. In the tale of "Argo"; Schlacht destroys an entire city-state using over fifty swords, twelve bows, and two shields. The potted artwork known as "Verteidigung" (located above) displays Schlacht taking several powerful arrows to his shield without budging. The Angel Schlacht is most known for his influence over battle and is therefore prayed to for victorious battles and conflicts; similar to most of his immediate family Krieg and Sieg.
Schlacht is associated with rage. He is the personification of anger and rage among other violent tendencies. When describing war, Schlacht is usually the figure to come to mind because of his violent tendencies (war violence in this case). Sometimes; Schlacht is confused with his father because of appearances and similar roles in TECT Mythology -- something that enrages both parties. Schlacht is described to be very similar to his father; he is often portrayed as the "Spear Tip" of Krieg and his family. His strength and ability to fight battles ends there; his intelligence was proven faulty plentiful times -- such as in the tale of "Two Islands" when the Angel is tricked into hunting for Meer under the ocean for twelve years. Violent surface beasts tend to flock to Schlacht because of his dominating personality traits -- a trick he uses to slaughter and release pent up steam on (either other beasts, humans, or Angels). Schlacht was also portrayed as being racist against humans (race being humans, deities, etc.); he displayed the tendency in "Battle Betrayal" when he hunted and murdered several of his demigod half brothers, for which he despises -- "Die half breed! If you were worthy to call thyself of godhood then you would have survived." Schlacht is among the most violent, depraved, and dangerous Angels (beings too) in TECT Mythology.
