Answer:

Chiron. He was known for his great wisdom and as the tutor of the god of medicine, Asklepios and the heroes Hercules, Achilles and Jason (and his son Medeus). Chiron is described as a centaur, a creature with a man's head and torso melting into the powerful body of a horse. However, the nobility of his spirit easily eclipses his fellow centaurs, and his appearance bears telltale signs of his superiority. The myth he is connected to is when Peleus, and his great-grandson, Achilles. Accidentally pierced by a poisoned arrow shot by Heracles, he renounced his immortality in favour of Prometheus and was placed among the stars as the constellation Centaurus.
