A story of Prometheus is that he sided with the gods when the gods overthrew Titans and wasn't punished with the other Titans.

He was made in charge of the creation of mankind and ended up stealing fire and tricking Zeus by giving him a bad offering for humans to give him.

The humans were punished and Zeus took fire away from them, soon after Prometheus stole the fire back.

Prometheus was punished by being chained to a rock and an eagle came every day to eat his liver. Since he was immortal every night his liver regenerated and every day the eagle came and ate it

Hercules came and kills the eagle and sets Prometheus free.
