hephaestus

You are right about Hephaestus being deformed and being married to Aphrodite (a beauty and the beast story in itself). I only know this much because it was features in an episode of HERCULES. But, in the real mythology, was Hephaestus a good god or a bad god? Maybe Beauty got ahold of THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA in the magic library and named the beast Eric.
