I am the smith of Zeus and I limp about. I fashion many weapons and even Zeus's thunderbolts come from my smithy. My wife is a beauty though she is very unfaithful. I created Talos the metal man, who am I?

B
Correct answer
Explanation
Hephaestus (misspelled as 'Hephistus') is the correct answer. He is the Greek god of the smith and forge, who crafted weapons for the gods including Zeus's thunderbolts. He was lame and limped due to being thrown from Olympus by Hera. His wife was Aphrodite, who was notoriously unfaithful. He did create Talos, the bronze giant. Option A 'Areas' is likely a misspelling of Ares.
