Your story's ideal hero

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> When you write your wonderful stories, more often than not we see the advent of an hero who eventually saves the day. So who is your ideal hero, a no nonsense miscreant that was just lucky to have a roughly good heart but would notwithstanding have to break the law to save the day: Or a law abiding citizen whose heroics is less of his vicious acts and antics but more of his smart moves and wise maneuve<br /> ? More often than not our judgement of the ideals of our stories' heroes depend on some factors and these include the following.<br /> The setting of the story:- Sometimes the background of our story would affect the ideals of its hero. Take for example a story that was staged at the historic reign of the roman empire. If an hero should rise in such story, your fans will not expect a saint, neither a miscreant, your hero should be a blood thirsty warlord or a god-blessed super human or some invincible demigod. However if the story was staged at the British empire era as seen in the king Authur era, a miscreant would have been our ideal hero or an overzealous knight. However how ridiculous would a wizard-of-an-hero have been in such setting? Obviously it would seem very ridiculous.<br /> The plot:- Let your hero represent your plot, don't be the person whose hero in a magical world would be a religious extremist, in as much as your hero's ride to glory would have been justified by his God's aid; you would however have earned a long list of disappointed and bored readers. Let the struggle between your hero and villain be in line. If your ideal hero is always a stainless, smooth riding, always having his way hero? You are so not doing a good job with your hero. What bore readers most is when your hero is so stereotyped that his every conquest is business as usual.<br /> Your characterization:- Sometimes the attributes you give your would be hero would have a constraint on his heroics. If you have a kid hero for instance, he is expected to be imperfect and quite amateurish, his heroics would be driven around luck and deep struggle. He should rarely have a smooth ride to conquer. Give him complex attributes but ensure those attributes are less conflicting. The commonest of such attributes are often emotional dispositions like (love, anger, hatred) and the rest physical/mental challenges like (sickness, trauma, I'll luck poverty and others). The two fields of attributes above would give your hero the ideals of a true hero your fans will love.<br /> After tactically analyzing the above points, you should know what your ideal hero should be for your story. You might have opinions contrary to mine, may be their is this other formula working for you?
