The Definition of the Hero: From Shrek to Wolverine and Everyone Else in Between

What is an archetype? The term “archetypes” signifies ancient patterns of personality and relationships that appear across the world’s myths, legends, and folk tales. Archetypes and stereotypes are not the same thing. The term was first employed heavily by psychologist Carl Jung.

The Chief A dynamic leader Has time for nothing but work Tough, decisive, goal-oriented Can be overbearing or inflexible

The Bad Boy Dangerous to know Walks on the wild side The rebel Bitter and volatile Charismatic Street Smart

The Best Friend Sweet and safe Never lets anyone down Mr. Nice Guy He’ll always be there

The Charmer Fun Irresistible Not too responsible or dependable

The Lost Soul A sensitive, understanding guy Secretive, brooding and unforgiving Vulnerable Might be a wanderer or an outcast

The Professor Coolly analytical He knows every answer Logical, introverted, and inflexible Honest and faithful

The Swashbuckler Mr. Excitement Action, action, action Needs thrills to keep him happy

The Warrior A noble champion Acts with honor The knight in shining armor The protector Sticks up for the underdog
