Ok, Prometheus it is then. You’ll notice that he was given more class levels than the rest of the titans, no doubt to account for his superior mental abilities. I do recommend putting a cap on it though; maybe only just Wiz 15 and Clr 13 for spellcasting, and some class abilities from ranger, rogue, and bard.

Prometheus is a wise titan, whose name means “forethought.” He is the son of the Titan Iapetus and the nymph Clymene, and is the brother of the Titans Atlas and Epimetheus.
Prometheus dwells among the gods in the realm of Olympus.
Prometheus is 100 feet tall and weighs (725,000?) pounds.
COMBAT
CLERIC/DRUID: 13th in each

MONK/BARD: 10th level bard
Prometheus is the son of lapetus and Clymene, and the brother of Atlas and Epimetheus. When the gods revolted against the titans, Prometheus sided with the gods since he correctly deduced the outcome of the struggle. Prometheus is credited with making the first man and woman from clay, and he has made it his task to help mankind whenever possible. Prometheus taught humans many of the civilized arts, including the medicinal use of plants, cultivation of grains, and domestication of wild animals. Prometheus stole fire from the sun and gave it to humankind. For this affront, Zeus ordered Prometheus chained to a mountain top where his perpetually-regenerating liver was torn out afresh each day by a griffonvulture. Zeus repented after 30 years and allowed Heracles to free Prometheus. After he was freed, Prometheus was invited to Olympus to join the gods.
Prometheus is the only titan worshiped as a god. As a token of his punishment, Zeus ordered Prometheus to wear a ring made from his chains. Prometheus' clerics also wear an iron ring set with a chip of stone supposedly from the mountain where Prometheus was chained. Prometheus expects his clerics to be self-reliant, but not self-centered. Trickery and cunning are fair weapons but only if the end serves the human race as a whole. Prometheus will side with faithful clerics against any force, even the most powerful god, but he takes a dim view of clerics calling upon him unless they have absolutely no chance of survival otherwise. The clerics of Prometheus will take any available opportunity to kill a griffon. They will also do all in their power to prevent humans from attacking any titan, and will actually side with Atlas or Epimetheus if they see either titan under attack.
Prometheus can create any mortal creature from clay in 2 melee rounds. This creature will serve him until it dies, though Prometheus usually sets it free after a specific service. In return for extraordinary service by one of his clerics, Prometheus may reward the cleric with a companion creature suitable to the cleric's level of experience.

Since Prometheus is "forethought", perhaps we could give him an insight bonus to AC?
Suggested additional spell-likes: foresight, moment of prescience, true strike.
Some of the rogue abilities seem a nice fit for "forethought": evasion, improved evasion, opportunist, and trap sense.
Most ranger and bard abilities don't seem a good fit, although Favored Enemy (griffon) would be humorous.

hey, sounds cool to me. 
and i thought about this - we really should have done epimetheus first and prometheus last. think about it. we could have made all of our mistakes on epimetheus, only really being able to fix him as an afterthought. and doing prometheus last would allow us to benefit from the wisdom we learned on doing the others.
heheh...

He is an afterthought, after all.

i like this ability. both he and his brother epimetheus can do this:
"Prometheus can create any mortal creature from clay in 2 melee rounds. This creature will serve him until it dies, though Prometheus usually sets it free after a specific service. In return for extraordinary service by one of his clerics, Prometheus may reward the cleric with a companion creature suitable to the cleric's level of experience."
