exist in movies and stories and are fictional. Take Gilgamesh‚ for example. He was “created by the gods” so obviously he was extremely attractive and had god like features and everyone either wanted him‚ or wanted to be him. But‚ he is a fictional character. I think that the main characteristics that make someone a hero are courage‚ morality‚ honor‚ respect‚ they fight for the good‚ and they focus on the needs of others rather than their personal needs. A hero is a savior. Beowulf saved his people more
