The Warrior is always depicted as having dark hair and a beard, as well as wearing a weskit, trousers, boots, scale armour and a cape.

In the prologs about the Warrior it is said that he "better prevents servants from fleeing, warns about theft and makes evident revelation".

Accept the supplication of thy servant and from present misfortunes, from those who plot, from evil plunder and from ordeals yet to be, deliver me who cry faithfully unto to thee Hallelujah".

[4][2] In The Roman Catholic Church tradition, he is called John the Soldier with his feast day celebrated on July 29.

Всеблагаго Бога и Царя благоверный раб и воин явился еси, Иоанне чудодетелю, пострадав бо ради веры мужески, блаженне же скончав течение, зриши Всетворца Господа в небесех светлейше.

Темже моли Владыку Христа, приснопамятне, да во всяком обстоянии сотворит нам милость, и не введет нас во искушения, но спасет души наша, яко Человеколюбец.

O miracle-worker John, thou hast been shown to be a truly faithful servant and soldier of God, the all-good Sovereign; for, having suffered, in manly fashion, for the Faith and finished thy course in benediction, in the heavens thou dost behold the Lord and Creator of all most splendidly, and helpest men who suffer amid all manner of trials.

Thou dost strengthen soldiers in battle, rescuing them from capture by the enemy, from wounds, sudden death and cruel misfortunes.

Wherefore, entreat Christ the Master, O ever-memorable one, that He deal mercifully with us in every circumstance, that He lead us not into temptations, but save our souls, for He is a lover of mankind.
