PERSONALITY,
[ + Loyal ] If you are a friend or respected by him, then Hephaestus will stand by you to the end, even when everyone else has deserted you.
[ - Obsessive ] Interested in mortal technology and fascinated by their gadgets, Hephaestus can lose days working on a new project, or taking some new toy apart to learn how it works. He sometimes forgets to eat or sleep, losing himself in the joy of discovery.
[ - Stubborn ] Hephaestus is not quick to change his mind. Once he has formed an opinion about a thing or a person, then it might be easier to move a mountain then alter his thinking.
[ + Honest ] Perhaps because of his disability, or maybe it’s just in his nature, but Hephaestus prefers to be honest with people. He’d much rather say nothing rather than get involved in the lies and deceptions practised by many of the other Gods.
[ - Resentful ] His deformity and more common appearance than the other Gods, as well his skills and talents being overlooked or taken for granted, often has Hephaestus feeling resentful towards the rest of the Pantheon. Yet another reason why he prefers his own company and hides himself away in his workshop
[ + Talented ] As the God of Sculptors, Artisans & Metalworkers, Hephaestus is an exceptionally talented artist himself, producing beautiful works in metal, clay and stone, although often overlooked in comparison with artistic Gods.
[ + Even-tempered ] Hephaestus does not lose his temper easily. He is often regarded as the most level-headed and stoic of the Gods, but like a volcano, the pressure builds slowly behind a calm exterior…
[ Can You Repeat That? ] In addition to the deformity that has made him a cripple, the effect of working with heavy machinery without protection has left Hephaestus with a degree of hearing loss. Although not completely deaf, he does occasionally wear hearing aids, but finds the confused sound of crowds hard to cope with. This has created some degree of society anxiety and reinforced his self-isolation, as well as leading to him playing his music at louder than acceptable volumes.
[ You Don’t Owe Me Anything ] Despite being highly skilled, Hephaestus perpetually undervalues his abilities when helping others. He’ll often work for hours mending a valuable item or appliance, only to ask for a few dollars or a favour in return. This has lead to him being used by some of the more unscrupulous Gods, and heavily in debt to Hades because of his constant lack of funds.
[ I Know Where Everything Is ] Despite his apartment and workshop looking like a disaster area, Hephaestus is actually very organised and meticulous when it comes to his most important possessions; his tools. They are arranged with a precision bordering on the obsessive, and he always knows if something is out of place.
[ I’m Fine On My Own ] Despite his protests to the contrary, Hephaestus is lonely. It still hurts him that his hand-crafted tokens of love for Aphrodite were so often cast aside, and that he’s regarded as little more than a repairman by the rest of the Gods. As an artisan God, he sometimes crafts the most rare and achingly beautiful objects, but because of his isolation, he has no one to share them with and they often lay hidden in the forgotten corners of his workshop, abandoned.
HISTORY,
No one is as steady as Hephaestus. Whether it be his hands or his resolve or his devotion. He will always be a predictable fixture in the lives of the Olympians, and for that they should be grateful. Should be, being key, although more often than not he is just overlooked and overshadowed. Unsurprisingly, he was one of the last to agree to leave Mt. Olympus and stood with Zeus until he called for retreat, not wanting to simply leave behind all he had worked so hard to craft.
Despite the new form offered to him by The Fates no magic could help correct the deformity which had cursed the Gods entire life, but to his delight the new realm suits him perfectly and even comes equipped with gadgets and gizmos to make his life easier. The mortals who reside there are far more advanced than in his old realm and the resources at his fingertips almost makes up for the fact he no longer has a volcano as a workshop.
Hephaestus greatly since his apartment often resembles a workshop and there is no one around to bark at him to clean up, their money has remained a joint asset. He’s aware of his terrible spending habit . Hephaestus is quite prone to buying the latest tool or fancy looking gadget to play with and is in debt to Hades. He manages to get by in the new realm by continuing the service he has always offered his fellow Gods - craft and arms dealing here in he land with magic.
As he is often working late into the night Hephaestus is usually the God left out of invites to parties or bars and his twilight tinkering has caused such a ruckus in the past that he has actually had to move apartments to live in the only ground floor space. Which is ideal given the fact he didn’t enjoy limping upstairs anyway.
