What is bellerophon a god of?

Bellerophon is not a god. He wasn't even the son of a god. In fact, he was one of the very few heroes that wasn't a demigod, though he did have divine heritage (and while some tellings say that he was the son of Poseidon and the king's wife, the retelling of the myth by his own grandson makes no mention of Poseidon). Bellerphon is well-known because he is the hero that killed the chimera and tamed Pegasus. After he killed the monster, though, his hubris got the better of him and he attempted to use Pegasus to reach Olympus. Zeus, angered by this, sent a gadfly to pester Pegasus, who threw Bellerophon from his back. Pegasus made it to Olympus where Zeus used him to shuttle his thunderbolts from the forge of the Cyclopes. Bellerophon fell into a briar patch, which blinded him. He died a doddering old man who shunned the company of other people. He is also one of the extremely few heroes not to be immortalized in the stars.
