She wears a chiton and an elaborate himation. He wears greaves, carries a shield and leans on his spear.Īthena? Athena stands behind the warrior. This warrior wears a Thracian helmet with a horsehair crest. It is possible that he is also one of Castor and Pollux. On the far right of the composition, a man is depicted standing by his horse. To the right of Herakles, all these figures are arranged on an uneven groundline. These figures show the influence of the wall-painter Polygnotos. They are the finest figures shown on the vase. These two figures are both shown in a combination of frontal, ¾ and profile views. His head is ¾ view and, while appears to be looking at Theseus, he looks bored. Naked, he sits on his himation, with his sword slung around his chest. Peirthoos? Peirthoos sits to the right of Herakles. His sword is slung across his chest on a strap, while he wears a petassos – a travelling hat – around the back of his neck. His right foot is turned outward in frontal view. His pose is very natural and balanced, with his straight right arm, and bent left leg. Theseus? Theseus pulls himself up using the spears he holds in his left hand. He also carries his trademark club and a bow. He is naked except for his lionskin (over his left shoulder), but wears a beard and a wreath, and looks to his right at the warriors. Herakles Herakles stands in the centre of the frieze, attracting the viewer’s attention. Another suggestion is “Herakles’ Voyage into the Underworld to Rescue Theseus”. “The Gathering of the Argonauts” is another possibility. The story of “The Seven Against Thebes” is one possibility.

While the main game admittedly was released to fair success, that hasn’t changed our commitment to our fans and our universe.” Robert Backstrom, Producer, Fatshark added: “The patch that we call Krater 1.1 is the first of three major updates to the game that we will execute the coming weeks. The download is free, and will also include a large number of updates to the single player content. Martin Wahlund, CEO and Executive Producer, Fatshark said: “We are very happy to bring co-op to the Krater universe. Consequence brings not only the ability for the characters to level up and improve themselves, but also permanent injuries and death. The base pillars are crafting, exploration and consequence. It is not your generic action RPG clone – it is lush in its colors, hardcore and got a different vibe to it. Krater is a retro-flavored post-apocalyptic top down RPG where you control a squad of free-diggers through the perils of an open game world. Fatshark released the highly anticipated co-op DLC to Krater.
