The hero can simply be a very polite person who goes out of their way to be nice to either a specific person or everyone in general. While the hero will not be as recognized, it still can be classified as heroic behavior.]]> 2017-10-20 00:32:28 UTC https://padlet.com/hillhan000/mfiupjxruehe/wish/198907121 baliurob000 https://padlet.com/hillhan000/mfiupjxruehe/wish/198928070 Yes. There are many types of heroes. Hero can be a person that is very kind and cares for others, with these personality traits he/she can be a hero to others. Hero can also be for example a police officer, they sometimes need to save lives. This also makes them heroes.Villain can exist without a hero. Again, he/she can have personality traits that distinguishes them as  being evil. ]]> 2017-10-20 03:22:25 UTC https://padlet.com/hillhan000/mfiupjxruehe/wish/198928070 https://padlet.com/hillhan000/mfiupjxruehe/wish/199033781 No, not in the typical sense. To overcome the abyss stage of the Hero's Journey, a hero must have an antagonist to fight against. In some more complex stories where the primary conflict is internal (such as in Mr. Robot), there still is a villain - the hero is his own villain. In the case of villain development, the answer is not so clear cut. Antagonists typically don't get as much emphasis (unless they are the main focus of the story), and so their character development can happen independently. When the villain is the focus of the story, such as in Grendel, the hero becomes all important once again. The final battle must be between the hero and the villain. ]]> 2017-10-20 13:06:35 UTC https://padlet.com/hillhan000/mfiupjxruehe/wish/199033781 harbugia000 https://padlet.com/hillhan000/mfiupjxruehe/wish/199080603 A hero can exist without a villain. Hero's thrive off of saving people or fixing a problem. This does not have to include a villain. There are many other aspects for a hero to help out such is in disaster like a fire or car accident. If a person runs in and saves the people then that person is deemed a hero. A villain also does not need a hero due to their evil intentions. A villain can still do evil without a hero as shown before Beowulf shows up to kill Grendel, Grendel was thriving and killing people without him. ]]> 2017-10-20 14:40:11 UTC https://padlet.com/hillhan000/mfiupjxruehe/wish/199080603
