Perseus

Source

Perseus is one of the most famous Greek heroes and he's still popular today. He is brave, daring, and selfless, defeating  all the villains in his way with ease.

Perseus is the mortal on of the God Zeus, and a beautiful maiden named Danae. Though Perseus is Zeus's son, he's still mortal and doesn't have any supernatural powers. However, he's brave, skilled, intelligent, and have a good history with the Greek gods. While he may be determined and clever, he is still inexperienced and young when Polydectes orders the young man to bring him Medusa's head. He was fortunate enough to get assistance from the gods.

Like many other Greek heroes (e.g. Odysseus, Heracles, and Jason), Perseus gets advice and guidance from the goddess Athena, his half-sister. Though he's destined for greatness, it's more likely Perseus wouldn't get very far without divine help.

Perseus has some gods on his side to offer advice. Also, he has all sorts of useful items for his journey. However, he's only borrowing them. These items are also a form of assistance from the gods. He's got Hades' Helmet of Invisibility (a.k.a. Helm of Darkness), Hermes' winged sandals, and a fancy Gorgon-poison-proof bag.
