    Heracles was born made mortal by his stepmother, jealous Hera. Hera made him go into a crazed fit, and kill his family, without knowing. He had to perform ten, later made twelve deeds, produced by a frightened king to pay for his terrible deed. Hera was usually jealous of the children resulting in Zeus's many love affairs.
