Examples:
Courage
Determination
Willpower
Physical / mental strength
self Sacrificial

ETC gimme sum traits peoples. I'm prolly gonna stick with the traits that get the most listings for something i'm doing.

All so, If you have any good quotes regarding heroes, please share them on this thread as well.

Thx in advance.

They are usually easy on the eyes. :wink:
I love to wear absurd and totally impractical garments. What's more, I derive great pleasure from spending time with women for no apparent reason.

Sympathy.

Who cares if he's determined, courageous, strong, and even self-sacrificial if he doesn't have a place in his heart for the weak, innocent, oppressed, etc. etc.

I had "Honor" written down but I guess sympathy is a bit more in depth into that subject. It works.

Keep em comin.

To make this more effective please for future posts put the first <b><u> 3 most important traits to a hero that comes to mind for you</b></u>.

For example these would be mine:

Courage
Honor
Determination

I'm prolly just gonna use the top 3 out of the data from this thread if i get enough posts. I all so need quotes! Post quotes in the form:

Thx again

Self-Sacrifice
Courage
Strength

"A hero is useless unless he/she live their lives for somebody else. Giving all they have for others is one of the noblest things our human race has, and I respect that in a hero" - Code

"Heros must have the courage to do things differently. Whether it be to rise up against opression, make a new idealism or way of life, or to simply protect somebody in harm's way. Without courage, they are just everday people incapable of doing anything to change the world." - Code

"Strength is important. Whether it be strength of body, mind or spirit, a hero must have power. Without it, they are an ordinary person no different from the average Joe. They need to have the power to make the changes that this world needs." - Code

Kind of fits... one of my favorites...
The hero is one who kindles a great light in the world, who sets up blazing torches in the dark streets of life for men to see by. The saint is the man who walks through the dark paths of the world, himself a light.
-Felix Adler
although this is probably more the speed your looking for.
“One cannot always be a hero, but one can always be a human.”
- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
