What epic hero did he display on Ismarus?
In Land of the Lotus Eaters, what epic hero trait did Odysseus display?
He displays how he is wary (in a good way). If he was a bad leader, he would not have recognized the situation, and would have asked for more of the seductive fruits. Instead, he decided to be savvy and left the island as fast as he could.
Reply:He shows caution about the unknown by observing how his crew reacts to the food instead of just grabbing and eating. That and his ability to inspire faith to his crew are his only good traits as the entire story is about the hardships he end his crew go through because he is stupid and angers the gods and then later not only disregards advice but does exactly what they tell him not to.
