lets test what we know
Hephaestus, god of the forge. He is the only know god with a deformity. He is cripple and walks with a limp. He always caries a cane with him that he made to help with that. Not originally he was hideous to look at but he has learned over the years how to mask that appearance and seem more normal. He is extremely strong, but has chosen a form that seems weak, he likes it though. He has always been different from the gods so why make his new form god like. Inside his workshop, he wears a jumpsuit smeared with grime and oil with the name Hephaestus embroidered over the chest pocket otherwise he is clean and more appealing to look at. His shoulder are still slightly off and even in the smaller form, while he is working it is easy to see his strength. In his new form he stands at about five feet six inches, a bit short, dark brown hair (he tends to keep a buzz cut) and eyes. He can't quite get rid of all the stubble from he beard that he had growing. He likes his skin a light brown color. He keeps is bad leg in a steel brace when working otherwise he just walks with the cane.
Hephaestus tends to be gruff, strong, hard working, blunt and disappointed in life, in people and other "living organisms." He loves his wife Aphrodite, however he is sad and angry at her unfaithfulness. He is very bitter and hateful towards his mother, Hera. He is very bitter about his life, and puts his faith in machines rather then people, as machines can't let you down. He is getting better about that but since he was let down by the gods and casted aside he really has a hard time in believing people. However, he appears to have a soft spot for Cyclopes, and seems to be on good terms with Athena. Even though he is very bitter, he he does love many things, such as his unfaithful wife, Aphrodite, and his demigod children and their mothers.
Hephaestus Is a very powerful god, considering he is the son of Zeus and god of fire and the forge. Prowess in Battle, Hephaestus is shown to be very strong (from constantly working in his forges), which makes him very formidable in battle. He successfully fought in the first Gigantomachy, and several other battles. He excels at fighting with a heavy hammer. Pyrokinesis, as the god of fire, he has absolute control over heat, fire, and lava. This is a very dangerous and powerful ability, which is why only children that he chooses have this ability. Fire Immunity, Hephaestus is immune to fire and heat, as he works with them constantly. Technokinesis, as the god of blacksmiths, he has amazing mechanical abilities. Enhanced Forging, Hephaestus can build any kind of machine out of any kind of material, as well as animate it and make it do things to suit his needs. He can even do this absentmindedly, fiddling with parts and gears when nervous or thinking hard over something.
Due to Zeus' giving birth to Athena, Hera was angry at his actions. She then gave birth to Hephaestus. He was an ugly and deformed child. A rumor was spread by Hera that Zeus threw him from Mt. Olympus at birth due to his ugliness, when it was really Hera herself that threw him, which caused his drastic injuries. After being nursed to health, Zeus (in a rare act) apologized and Zeus, Hephaestus' father welcomed his son back with open arms.
The goddess Aphrodite, was causing a lot of problems in Olympus due to her radiant beauty. Zeus decided to wed her to Hephaestus to keep her unavailable, though she still had multiple affairs with Ares, the god of war and others. Though these days the affair is considered old news and everyone just accepts it however, Hephaestus still finds ways to publicly embarrass his wife and her lover in front of the other gods with elaborate traps and tricks. The most famous one and the first one was when he caught the two lovers in a magical net and then invited the other gods to come and laugh at the unfortunate sight. He also took part in creating the metal giant Talos, the Trojan Horse, and other various automatons. He even built the armor of Achilles.
