The gods are of a definite importance, but it is the heroes that really make the poem. The heroes of the Iliad live in a world influenced by shame culture; they are not driven to action by guilt or morals, but by the need for honour in the eyes of other men.owever, one thing that does stand out about the Iliad is that, unlike in the Odyssey, there is a distinct lack of bards represented within the poem. In fact the only time that we see any kind of song performed is not by a bard at all, but by Achilles.
