Mythology

"◆ Age -- 40
 ◆ Homeland -- Tiryns
 ◆ Occupation -- Hero and demigod
The son of Zeus and a mortal woman, Heracles (called Hercules in Latinwas endowed with incredible strength. He strangled serpents in his crib as a baby and accidentally killed his tutor with a lyre as a youth. Unfortunately he had a terrible enemy in Hera, Zeus' jealous wife on Olympus. She drove Heracles mad to the point that he killed his own wife and children. After recovering his sanity, he sought advice from the Oracle of Delphi for penance to resume a normal life. She instructed him to perform his famous twelve labors. These included killing beasts like the Nemean Lion (which he strangled and the Hydra, capturing other beasts, and a variety of other quests. With the twelve labors complete, and following a variety of other adventures, he was allowed to return to Tiryns and remarry. Heracles died much later after being treacherously poisoned through the machinations of a Centaur who had tried to abduct his wife. He was then invited to Olympus and endowed with immortality."
