Personality traits of Hephaestus?
It's not entirely easy to answer. But from what information that is documented today, Hephaestus tends to hold a grudge. For example, when Hera threw him from Olympus, he fell into the ocean, where 2 nereids raised him for nine years under the island of Lemnos. Hephaestus crafted a spectacular throne for Hera, which he had placed in Olympus for Hera to sit in. Hera loved the throne, but when she sat in it, the chair had a trap which imprisoned her. This shows that he held a grudge from when Hera threw him down from Olympus.
