It was said that he blanketed his bed with the skins of men he killed. Even though he appeared to be a powerful God, most stories place him in a position of embarrassment and humiliation, particularly when they involve his lover Aphrodite. When faced with the wrath of other Gods, Ares showed surprising cowardice.
