Ten Steps of the Hero's Journey Quiz
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| The story’s exposition introduces the hero, and soon the hero’s normal life is disrupted. Something changes; the hero faces a problem, obstacle, or challenge. | The Call to Adventure |
| At first the hero is reluctant to accept the change. Usually this reluctance presents itself as second thoughts or personal doubt. Hesitation, whether brief or lengthy, humanizes the hero for the reader. | Refusal of the Call |
| The hero finally accepts the call and begins a physical, spiritual, and/or emotional journey to achieve a boon, something that is helpful or beneficial. | The Beginning of the Adventure |
| The story develops rising action as the hero faces a series of challenges that become increasingly difficult as the story unfolds. | The Road of Trials |
| This love often drives the hero to continue on the journey, even when the hero doubts him/herself. | The Experience with Unconditional Love |
| The story reaches the climax as the hero gains what he or she set out to achieve. The Call to Adventure (what the hero is asked to do), the Beginning of the Adventure (what the hero sets out to do), and the Ultimate Boon must connect. | The Ultimate Boon |
| The falling action begins as the hero begins to think about the Return. Sometimes the hero does not want to look back after achieving the boon. Sometimes the hero likes the “new world” better. | Refusal of the Return |
| For some heroes, the journey “home” (psychological or physical) can be just as dangerous as the journey out. Forces (sometimes magical or supernatural) may keep the hero from returning. This step is similar to The Road of Trials. | The Magic Flight |
| Just as it looks as if the hero will not make it home with the boon, the hero is “rescued.” The rescuer is sometimes the same person who provided love or support throughout the journey. | Rescue from Without |
| The final step is the story’s resolution, when the hero returns with the boon. The theme is typically revealed at this point. To determine theme, think about the hero’s struggles, transformation, and achievement. . | The Crossing or Return Threshold |
