An epic hero is a man whose fortune is brought about by his own characteristics. These characteristics are usually strength, loyalty, courage, and intelligence.

Odysseus is a clear example of an epic hero because he demonstrates courage and intelligence. For example, in the Cyclops' cave, all his men were afraid and panicked, but not him. He kept calm and confronted the Cyclops. Then, when it asked for his name, he said it was "Nobody", so when he stabbed the Cyclops eye, which is another display of immense courage, he could not say who did it.
