Being alive in the time fire was invented - well it’s hard to say since it was Homo Erectus who did so, some millions of years ago.

Someone that went against God(s) to give humans knowledge that at the time was considered magical

Imagine being alive when your group of humans mastered fire. That shit would have been fucking mind breaking.
He is the one that have humans fire and was chained to the rock for all time while having his guts eaten by a bird each day which healed each night?
Yep.
The OG Light Bringer sentenced to eternal damnation for providing knowledge to humans.
