Hero Qualities

I think there are many characteristics that a hero needs to have. They have to be very dedicated and persistant or else when they meet struggles or difficulties along they way they would give up. They also need to be very passionate about what they are fighting for, because if they don't feel strongly about their mission they won't take it seriously and will give up. Obviously they need to be leaders. No hero can accomplish what they are aiming for alone which is why they need helpers. They have to be able to lead these helpers and convince them to follow their orders. Last but not least they have to be brave because when it comes down to it every mission is going to take some courage. They will have to face something along the way that they don't want to or have been avoiding. In star wars there are a few minor themes but they all come from one main one. Which would be good vs. evil. It shows a good guy gone bad and then a following generation that was able to resist the temtation of evil to follow what he knew was right in his heart. In a way Darth Vador was following his heart too when he turned to the dark side. I think the only did this to protect his wife. If he didn't have a soft spot for family and love then he wouldn't have saved Luke from being killed.
