Answer and Explanation:

Chiron is the centaur who trained Hercules to become a hero. Chiron's purpose since then is to train heroes for as long as necessary.

According to mythology, Chiron was a very intelligent, civilized and kind centaur, like other centaurs who created a lot of confusion, were malicious and lived drunk, doing inconsequential things and adopting delinquent and violent behaviors. He was created by the god Apollo, who taught him everything about art, literature, philosophy, science and therapies.
