Prometheus

Prometheus is an ancient Titan who was punished by Zeus. He first appeared in the Hercules animated series episode Hercules and the Prometheus Affair.

Past
Long ago Prometheus decided to help humanity by giving then the gift of fire. In order to do this he sneaked into Mount Olympus and used a torch to steal some fire from the sun. With this gift humanity was able to excel and improve society. However Zeus was angered by Prometheus for having disobeyed his rule about intervening in mortal affairs, so he punished him by chaining him to a mountain where a giant eagle would come each day to feast on his liver. Luckily his liver would grow back after each night. However humanity still remembered his noble act and his honor they erected and named a school after him.

Being Rescued
During Liver & Onions Thursday's at Prometheus Academy Hercules heard of the injustice Prometheus suffered and decided to save him.
