Hephaestus

God of fire, Metalworking, Stone Masonry, Forges and Smithing and God of the Art of Sculpture. Hephaestus was the only ugly god among perfectly beautiful immortals. He was the workman of the immortals: he made their dwellings, furnishings, and weapons. He would be prayed to and offerings made to him by artists, smiths, masons, etc. This is why he ranks near the top of the Gods worshipped.
