Answers:

Heroes possess impressive traits, such as strength.

Heroes sometimes rely on support from the gods.

Heroes sometimes display human weaknesses.

Explanation:

In Homer´s Iliad, one encounters heroes of the magnitude of Achilles and Hector, for example. Homer´s strength lies in portraying these heroes as possessing incredible traits such as strength or wisdom. Also, in the course of their fates, these heroes are said to be helpless in the face of destiny were it not for the assistance that they receive from the gods, which are important characters in the epic themselves. Finally, and perhaps herein lies the greatest attraction that we feel for these heroes, Homer portrays them often as showing human weaknesses that make them  more relatable to us, mere mortals.
