- Vast Traveler
- This is the noble birth slide, because it's basically Odysseus saying that he's Laerte's son. I used the quote "Odysseus, raider of cities, took your eye: Laerte's son, whose home's on Ithaca!" (Homer 1122) I used this because it shows that he is of royal and therefor noble birth.
- Unmatched Warrior
- This is the scene where Odysseus stabs the cyclops eye. This is supernatural, because it shows his incredible bravery and intelligence. "And cheered my men along with battle talk to keep their courage up: no quitting now."(Homer, 1118)
- Battles Supernatural Warrior
- This is the scene where he's sailing to the island with the cyclops. "At this I went aboard, and gave the word to cast off the stern." (Homer, 1113)
- This is the scene where Oddysseus goes and stabs the cyclops.
- This is the scene where Odysseus drunken and stabs the cyclops Polymorphous. This is him battling the supernatural warrior, because the cyclops is much bigger and stronger than Odysseus.
