That’s certainly true of the fictional variety where very few linger in the mind beyond the last page of a novel. So what makes The Best Fictional Heroes and is your Hero The Next Bestseller? It’s not an easy question to answer because our characters likes and dislikes are wholly subjective yet there are hero traits readers are repeatedly drawn to. But before we come to them it might help to take a quick look at the best fictional heroes from a classical perspective.
Perhaps the likes of mythological figures, such as Achilles or Hercules readily spring to mind or perhaps your thoughts turned to a more recent era and characters like Superman or Wonder Woman. What they all have in common though (even when you strip away their superhuman powers) is a quality of character, like courage or honour, that elevates them above the ordinary. Leading them to stand resolute in the face of danger as they combat adversity through feats of ingenuity or bravery.
Thankfully the archetypical stereotype hero is falling by the wayside and the majority of heroes in contemporary fiction are a completely different breed. Remember the TV series Dexter or Lestat de Lioncourt from The Vampire Chronicles. We’ve come to love dysfunctional heroes and their flaws as much as we loved the classical heroes of old yet there are still some tenets authors favour when creating their characters. Now, remember we are talking about fictional heroes here and these are the top 4 attributes.
Out of all the points above, it’s the last one that presents the greatest challenge to seasoned and aspiring authors alike. Some instinctively get it right, others get it horribly wrong. But one who has adopted a unique approach to his hero’s development is Author John Bennett with his “The Path Of A Titan series”. We recently reviewed “The Path Of A Titan – The Proving which you can read HERE.“
