Hephaestus, God of the Forge
In the Greek Myths, Hephaestus is often overlooked and overshadowed by other Olympians such as Zeus and Poseidon. Born broken and deformed, his own mother cast him out from Mount Olympus. He then trained and forged his way back to Olympus, returning once more with his own might and grit. Hephaestus proved that the sweat of hard work and determination can overcome everything, even destiny.
