Usually, epic heroes share common character traits such as Brave , smart , and strong.
In Homer’s Odyssey, it is my belief that Odysseus is heroic mostly because he was smart. For example, in the movie on his first trip home he met Poseidon’s son the cyclops. In that scene the cyclops asked for Odysseus’s name and he was smart enough to say “ nobody” so that when the cyclops went to tell his father or anyone they would think it was nobody. Also in the scene of the cyclops Odysseus and his men had to escape, he was a smart hero for coming up with an idea to stabbed the cyclops in the eye , it had some of his men die but that was because of their own actions towards the situation with the cyclops. Another Example of his character trait being
