When evil arises, when chaos comes forth, when destruction threatens the land, heroes will arise. Outright heroes, tragic heroes, anti-heroes, super heroes; movies, comics, cartoons, video-games, folklore, they come in many forms and from many places. Some will slay monsters, others may grapple super-villains or their own inner demons but all must overcome strife.

Heroes are the backbone of our story-telling - adversity relates to us and those who overcome adversity give us hope to overcome it. In a narrative, a protagonist means the one who's view the story play out from; As most stories are formed to overcome problems, the protagonist is more often than not the hero of that narrative - the one to resolve that problem. This is in essence what a hero is. In a fable of a dragon that ravages the land, a hero will slay it. In a comic when villains siege the city, a hero will arrest them. In movies when a vampire falls upon the populace, a hero will vanquish it. In videogames when an evil sorcerer threatens to take over the world, a hero will defeat them. In anime when Villainous-extraterrestrial-vampire-dragon-sorcerors attack, it will be a the hero who stops them.
