Hephaistos
God of fire; Smith of the gods
Hephaistos was the only Olympian not graced with beauty, he was disfigured and tended to keep to himself in his forge. After birth his parents cast him out of heaven, disgusted by his physical failing in their eyes:
But he grew up to be a loving, kind and peaceful god who became honored by gods and humans alike for his craftsmanship.Thrown by angry JoveSheer o´er the crystal battlements; from mornTo noon he fell, from noon to dewy eve,A summer´s day, and with the setting sunDropt from zenith like a falling star,On Lemnos, the Agean isle.
