the "Dreaded" = hero who uses fear to their advantage or is known as a force that invokes fear in criminal underworld, this often backfires on them however as by their very nature the Dreaded are often misunderstood, mistrusted or downright rejected by the more mainstream hero community due to their tactics being seen as too extreme or their loner nature.

it's not just about heroes who use intimidation directly but heroes who cause others to be afraid of their presence, more than usual.. Hulk, Batman etc are examples of this.. to the point even other heroes are wary of them (as stated above).
