Decided to give this trope another go in the queue by following this post.

Hurting Hero is defined as "a character who does good, heroic, selfless deeds is burdened with stress, hardship or tragedy, but perseveres anyway" (the last three words are only mentioned at the last part of the trope description). A wick check is conducted to gauge severity of overlapping with existing tropes. The following are the results:

  • 42% wicks contain context that can be easily replaced with another existing trope (e.g., Trauma Conga Line, Being Good Sucks, etc.).
  • 52% wicks contain insufficient context (ZCE, lacking context on whether character is heroic, elaboration needed for what "tragedy" or "hardship" the character goes through)
  • 6% wicks are unclassified (found in indices or lists of tropes).

Suggestion: Disambig.

I'll close this as it seems we were both trying to get the thread started. Since I didn't see yours until now, accept my apologies.
