Telemachus
Odysseus's son, who grew up fatherless under a palace full of suitors and learns to fight in 'Legendary.' Telemachus's gentle determination to be good rather than great made him EPIC fandom's most protected boy.
Other EPIC Characters
Odysseus
3k works
The King of Ithaca fighting his way home from Troy through sirens, sorceresses, and his own moral erosion, asking how much of himself he can trade to see Penelope again. Jorge Rivera-Herrans' saga made him animatic fandom's tragic darling.
Penelope
2k works
Queen of Ithaca, who out-waits and out-wits a palace of suitors for twenty years with a loom and an unshakable certainty about her husband. 'Would you fall in love with me again' answers the musical's every sacrifice.
Athena
1k works
The goddess of wisdom as EPIC reimagines her — Odysseus's exacting mentor whose 'Warrior of the Mind' bond fractures and heals across the sagas. Athena's rigid divinity cracking into grief gives the musical its best god content.
