1. Laertes => Odysseus' father. He lives in Ithaca and waits for his son to come back.
2. Anticleia => Odysseus's mother. While Odysseus is gone, she commits suicide because of grief. They meet again in the underworld.
3. Antinous => the first suitor killed. He is the most violent and insolent among suitors. He is the one who plots against Telemachus.
4. Leodes => the one who thinks the bow will kill the suitors. He is a suitor himself, although the least insolent one. He predicts that Odysseus will come back for revenge. He is the last suitor Odysseus kills.
5. Alcinous => King of the Phaeacians. He is extremely hospitable and even offers his daughter to Odysseus.
6. Eurycleia => the one who recognizes Odysseus's scar. She was Odysseus' nurse. When he comes back to Ithaca, disguised as an old beggar, she washes his legs and notices the scar.
7. Artemis => Apollo's twin. She is the goddess of hunting and childbirth, and is only occasionally mentioned in The Odyssey.
8. Dolius => father of Melantho and Melanthius. He is Penelope's slave and father of seven sons (one of whom is Melanthius) and one daughter, Melantho. While Melanthius and Melantho are disloyal to Odysseus and Penelope, their father and brothers remain loyal.
9. Demodocus => blind bard of the Phaeacians. Some scholars believe he was Homer's reference to himself.
10. Melanthius => disloyal goatherd. Unlike Eumaeus, Melanthius is loyal to the suitors, instead of his master Odysseus. He will even assist the suitors in the battle with his former master.

Answer from: Quest

read this excerpt from “incidents in the life of a slave girl.”

i went about my evening work with trembling steps. mr. flint twice called from his chamber door to inquire why the house was not locked up. i replied that i had not done my work. "you have had time enough to do it," said he. "take care how you answer me! "

i shut all the windows, locked all the doors, and went up to the third story, to wait till midnight. how long those hours seemed, and how fervently i prayed that god would not forsake me in this hour of utmost need! i was about to risk everything on the throw of a die; and if i failed, o what would become of me and my poor children? they would be made to suffer for my fault.

at half past twelve i stole softly down stairs. i stopped on the second floor, thinking i heard a noise. i felt my way down into the parlor, and looked out of the window. the night was so intensely dark that i could see nothing. i raised the window very softly and jumped out. large drops of rain were falling, and the darkness bewildered me. i dropped on my knees, and breathed a short prayer to god for guidance and protection. i groped my way to the road, and rushed towards the town with almost lightning speed.

what is the main idea of this excerpt?

harriet worked for a man called mr. flint who became very impatient when she did not finish her work.

harriet waited until after midnight to run down the stairs and jump out of a window into the rain.

harriet was a frightened young girl who found the faith and courage to leave her home for an unknown life.

harriet felt very nervous about running away because she did not like being alone in the darkness.
