The water nymphs, and in particular, Thetis raised Hephaestus.
Hephaestus or Vulcan was born lame and so he was looked down upon. He was banned to Earth's core to forge weapons from fire and metal found in the Earth for the gods. He also looked after precious gems and metals.
Not as such, but there are myths to be found that associate Hephaestus with them: the Eagle is sometimes said to be given life by Zeus but crafted by Hephaestus that tormented Prometheus.
In a volcanic forge if on Earth.
Hera threw Hephaestus to Earth because he was born deformed and she was ashamed of his appearance. Hephaestus landed in the sea and was raised by sea nymphs, who helped him become a skilled blacksmith.
Yes, in his attempted rape of Athena, the seed of Hephaestus fell to Earth (Gaea) and Erikhthonios was formed.
Hephaestus and Athena "had" one child, Erichthonius, where Hephaestus tried to go for Athena and ended up getting her leg. She wiped off her leg and threw it to the ground, where Gaia the Earth Goddess was fertilized.
Hephaestus was the only Greek god that suffered a life-altering injury. After he was kicked out of heaven and fell to earth, he suffered a permanent limp.
not until she found out he was an excellent black smith

Hephaestus is male.
The moral of the story of Hephaestus is that one's talents and skills are valuable, regardless of physical appearance or social status. Hephaestus overcame challenges and found success by using his creativity and craftsmanship to make unique and powerful creations. This teaches us to embrace our own talents and not be limited by society's expectations.
