Yes, but it's Kratos, not Cratose. Kratos was one of the sons of Pallas and Styx, and is the personification of Strength (before Heracles took over the role). Along with Nike (Victory), Bia (Force) and Zelus (Zeal), Kratos was one of the enforcers of Zeus, and according to some legends, one of the gods who helped bind Prometheus.

Do not confuse him with Kratos from "God of War".. that character is someone different than what I explained above.

The name Kratos comes from the Greek word κράτος (kratos) which means "power". It's the root of words like "democracy" and "aristocracy".
