Athena
Athena is the goddess of wisdom, courage, inspiration, civilization,law and justice,warfare,mathematics,strenght, strategy, arts, crafts, and skills. Her parents are Zeus and Mitis, a ninph. Before she was born Zeus swallowed Mitis with Athena still pregnant. When it was the time for Athena to be born, Hephaistos, opened Zeus with an axe, and Athena stepped out in full armour.
She also was Hercules half-sister.
When Hercules went mad and killed his children, Athena stopped the disaster from getting worse. Just as the insane hero turned to kill Amphitryon, Athena threw a stone at Hercules, knocking him unconscious, so his mortal father was spared.
