The Character of Hector in Greek Mythology. In Greek mythology, Hector, the oldest child of King Priam and Hecuba, was the presumed heir to the throne of Troy. This devoted husband of Andromache and father of Astyanax was the greatest Trojan hero of the Trojan War, the main defender of Troy, and a favorite of Apollo. As depicted in Homer's The Illiad, Hector is one of the principle defenders of Troy, and he very nearly won the war for the Trojans. 1  When, after Achilles temporarily deserted the Greeks, Hector stormed the Greek camp, wounded Odysseus and threatened to burn the Greek fleet--until Agamemnon rallied his troops and repelled the Trojans.
