Prometheus

The Titan who stole fire and gave it to mankind against Zeus' explicit command. Hesiod tells it twice: the theft hidden in a fennel stalk, and the punishment, bound to a pillar with an eagle sent to eat his liver, which grew back each night for the bird to find again the next day.

Aeschylus gives him the mountain and the defiance. In the Prometheus Bound he is chained at the edge of the world and refuses to name the secret that would save Zeus, and the play ends with the rock splitting rather than the Titan yielding.

Acenes meets him chained on the mountainside, and recognises him from his grandmother's stories before the eagle arrives. What the Titan tells him there about the weapons made in the Gigantomachy is preserved in this scroll alone.
