Perseus received assistance from several key figures in Greek mythology during his quest to slay Medusa. Athena provided him with a reflective shield to avoid Medusa's petrifying gaze, while Hermes gifted him winged sandals for swift travel.

Calibos did not receive the same protection from Zeus as Perseus because he was seen as a flawed character who disrespected the gods and their will. Unlike Perseus, who was favored for his noble lineage and bravery, Calibos was punished for his arrogance and cruelty, particularly towards the princess Andromeda. Zeus, as the king of the gods, chose to intervene in favor of Perseus, recognizing his potential for heroism and virtue. This distinction in character ultimately determined the level of divine protection they received.
