The Charecter

A character that stands out in my memory, or mind in general was Odysseus from Homer's Odyssey. He stands out in general due to, first of all, his demonstration of a strong leader, but he was created with just enough depth to show he had faults, a hubris to which he held for his own. Curiosity was the great leaders vice, it is neither malicious nor immaculate as often times he risks his own life to sate his lust for knowledge of the previously unknown. The human element involved in his creation made him the most realistic hero i can think of while still holding onto the aspects of a hero.
