They played a very significant role in this epic. They had supernatural powers and where there to help mortals and give their pity. For example, Athena assisted Odyesseus thorugh his journey and helped him arrange his plans to return to Ithaca. She watched his every step and guided him on his voyage. SHe also helped Telemakhos step out of his shadow and start his journey to manhood. She sets and example of an intelligent, sophisticated woman and can be regarded as an example of our modern women today. While, Circe and Calypso also helped Odysseus by providing him with information and advice before he took off towards his homeland.
There is a god that is against Odysseus, Poseidon. He makes Odysseus's journey hard after Odysseus blinds the Cyclops. So the Gods can be looked on in both ways.
Calypso does not help Odysseus; she goes against Zeus' will by holding captive him there on her island. Yes, they are lovers, but he is not happy there. She actually holds him captive there for seven years, and that by far is going against Zeus' hospitality rule.

In "The Odyssey," gods and goddesses play crucial roles as both helpers and hindrances to Odysseus on his journey home. Athena, the goddess of wisdom, frequently aids him with guidance and support, while Poseidon, the god of the sea, opposes him due to a personal vendetta. The divine interventions reflect the ancient Greek belief in the gods' influence over human fate, illustrating themes of loyalty, justice, and the struggle between human agency and divine will. Ultimately, these deities shape the narrative and highlight the moral lessons inherent in Odysseus's adventures.
The gods, are pretty much, the fate holders. Gods are known to be arrogant, so it is always best to remain in their favor. Odysseus, in the first part of the Odyssey, upsets Poseidon, so the whole time Poseidon is trying to prevent Odysseus from going home. (He eventually makes it though.)
The Sunerians believed that kings and priests had a link to the gods so they had a great influence over people.
In a way kinda but no not really. All gods had significant roles to play but Hermes certaintly was an important one. Not only the messenger of the gods but also god of thiefs,writing ... etc
