Athena disguises herself as Mentor when she visits Telemachus in Homer's "Odyssey." Mentor is an old friend of Odysseus and a trusted advisor, which allows Athena to provide guidance and encouragement to Telemachus as he embarks on his quest to find his father. This disguise symbolizes Athena's role as a protector and guide for the young hero.
Athena pretended to be the character Mentes, an old family friend of Odysseus, when she first met Telemachus in Homer's "The Odyssey."

Antinous bullies Telemachus in The Odyssey.
is telemachus willing to let athena help him?why or why not?
I think that an example of "the call to adventure" plays out in Telemachus' odyssey. I recall it was Athena who pushes Telemachus to sail out in search of new of his father, a risky maneuver because of the perils he could face in open sea, and the suitors that plot to kill him on his way back.
Telemachus is the son of Odysseus
In The Odyssey, Penelope, Odysseus's wife, is looking for him. She remains faithful to him for 20 years while he is away at war and on his journey home. His son, Telemachus, also goes in search of him.

In book one of the Iliad, she doesn't disguise, but in book one of the Odyssey, she disguises as Mentis.
He's really hospitable to Mentes (Athena) when she visits him in the first book. he welcomes her and feeds her, then offers her a place to stay and a gift to for her journey.
