Talos was a giant, living bronze automaton. He was forged by Hephaestus, and Zeus presented him to his lover Europa to protect her. Zeus then sent Europa to the island to Crete, where Talos patrolled the shores for pirates, etc. 3 times a day. If anyone tried landing, he would pelt them with rocks or put them in a a fiery death embrace. Talos was eventually killed with magic from Medea.
