i guess a hero would only be one if he or she did something heroic so the question would be what is a heroic thing maybe defeating someone evil that seems to be a simple way to be considered a hero if someone is evil and they are stopped then that is basically heroic by default although being evil is a bit subjective so i guess that makes being heroic subjective too maybe doing something that needs to be done but everyone else is incapable or unwilling to do is heroic
so i guess a hero is someone who does something heroic because you cant be a hero without doing something probably
im not sure if that matters a hero can be whatever trying to be a certain type of person all the type to fit an idea of something sounds difficult probably debilitating ive known people that have tried to fit the definition of something all the time it does not tend to work i think a hero just needs to do something heroic other things dont matter
uh well being some of those things might be helpful i think most anyone would probably like to be some of those things and heroic things are probably difficult otherwise there wouldnt be anything heroic about them
but if theyre already doing heroic things then they must be those things already so there is no reason to try to be those things
oh then i can understand your worry i had met someone i considered sort of a hero of mine before twice actually two different people it was all very confusing and intimidating both times but something i realized was that heroes are normal people that do special things

maybe defeating someone evil
that seems to be a simple way to be considered a hero
if someone is evil and they are stopped then that is basically heroic by default
although being evil is a bit subjective so i guess that makes being heroic subjective too
maybe doing something that needs to be done but everyone else is incapable or unwilling to do is heroic
so i guess a hero is someone who does something heroic because you cant be a hero without doing something

all the time

since anyone as long as they can do a heroic thing is heroic they don't have to be brave or smart or powerful.
