Hercules

Hercules is the Greek hero who overcame Hera's nine challenges. He is the son of the Roman form of Zeus, Jupiter, and the mortal woman Alcmene. According to Greek myths, he is the god of heroes and strengths. His weapon is Anaklusmos, a sword given from Zoë Nightshade, a Hunter of Artemis. He used it on his quests, but to Zoë's dismay, he used it to kill the dragon Ladon, which determined her fate: To be cast away from her sister Hesperide sisters forever as if she never existed, which stirred up her undying hate to Hercules. Anaklusmos was passed onto Poseidon, who gave it to centaur Chiron, who gave it to twelve-year-old Percy Jackson. When Hercules died, even his stepmother and enemy Hera welcomed him into Olympus as an equal.
