Achilles was a Greek hero in the Trojan War whose mother was the sea nymph Thetis. To make him immortal, Thetis dipped Achilles in the River Styx, but held him by the heel so his heel was not washed over and remained mortal. This allowed Achilles to be invulnerable in battle except for his heel. He fought bravely in the Trojan War until he was tricked into leaving by Prince Paris, who later fatally shot Achilles in his vulnerable heel with a poisoned arrow.

2. Thetis- sea nymph
Thetis was his mother,
she was a sea nymph or
goddess of sea/ocean,
she is one of fifty or so
daughters of the sea god
Nereus. Soon after
Zeus was chained up
Achilles freed him from
his bonds. Thetis and
Peleus had a couple of
children before Achilles
they were tossed into a
pit of fire.

3. How did he become
imortal?
His mother took him to
the river Styx and by the
heel dipped him into it,
but the heel remained dry
so it was the only part
that if it was hurt would
affect him.

4. Immortal life
Achilles took part in the
Trojan war, because he
was immortal he could not
be killed. So he was a
great leader as he was
very motivational and
made his army strong an
fearless.

5. Part In warAchilles was a formidable
foe, eventually he left the
war and his friend who
looked like him went to
war to make the other side
think he was still fighting.
The friend was killed by
prince Hector, so
Achilles went back to war
and killed Hector to get
even, then prince Paris
shot him in the heel with a
poison arrow, the heel he
was shot in was the one
he had not had dipped in
the river he than died.
