A system used to classify
Anti Heroes and their likelihood to morph into classical
Heroes.
Type I: A protagonist who is
too much of a loser to be considered an actual hero.
Type II:
Knights In Sour Armor and other characters whose actions are heroic, but whose
attitude tends to be less so. Type III: Characters who practice
essentially good but not necessarily heroic actions.
Type IV:
Heroes With An F In Good and other characters who have good
motivations and can even be good
people, but are too flawed to be actual
heroes.
Type V: The majority of
Byronic Heroes,
Sociopathic Heroes, and characters
who are only considered heroic at all because they fight
extremely dangerous and
unsympathetic villains. Alternately, Heroes
In Name Only. May overlap with
Villain Protagonist.
