Hephaestus is the only Olympian who limps. He was the son of Hera and Zeus. Some say he was born with a limp. Others say Zeus, in a fit of temper, flung him off Mount Olympus when he was just a baby. 

Hephaestus is an interesting Greek god. He is the god of fire and forge. He made things, like the gods home on Mount Olympus. He married (and was deeply loved) by Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty.  

Zeus ordered Hephaestus to create the first woman out of clay. Hephaestus created Pandora.
