Still, first and foremost my Dad.

But other people have given me ideas now:

Green Ranger (TOTALLY AGREE!)

White Ranger too, though.
and Black Ranger.

Godzilla, pretty cool. But also Gamera and King Gidora

Captain America, Spiderman (a bit). And some of the greater villains. I always like Scorpion in Spiderman.

And of course, as most can agree, the ever cool. Always terrifying:

Batman

I one day dream of having a character half as awesome as Batman.
When the means seem to justify the ends, you've tried to hard to find an excuse. When 'by any means necessary' means 'violence may become necessary' you've lost sight of your goal. When people lay down and die rather than endure any more suffering, worry for the state of humanity. When people do not comment on how wrong this is, become angry at the world, because feeling that upset is too hard to bare. When people say 'you care too much' don't answer, because there is no such thing.

My sister had the biggest crush on him when she was like 6 (so I've heard). What a coincidence :]


But I don't know any of my heroes :(
I don't know if I had any :O
I was an outdoors kid and didn't watch much TV. I was a Disney kid though.
:C

But my best friend was my Zeddy Teddy :]

I guess I would also probably add The Karate Kid and Luke Skywalker to my list.




And I forgot the biggest one of all. King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. Merlin too. I was a MAJOR Arthurian lore hound when I was a kid, read so many modern adaptations and the like, my favorite was probably The Book of Mordred by Vivian van Velde or summat.
IF ANYONE HAS READ THE TAPESTRY SERIES, ALSO KNOW AS THE HOUND OF ROWAN AND THE SECOND SEIGE, PLEASE PM ME IF YOU'D LIKE TO DO AN RP.

Well...as a kid my hero forever will have to be the person who taught me the most and gave me the intellect I have till today, who I felt guided me and helped me progress through the barriers of life, who stayed by my side when no one else was their. Who comforted me just when I needed. The one I considered the strongest most wise hero of all time, even if not true which I now know is not...

Hermit the Frog...(A doll I used to carry around with me as a kid and never let go unless forced in which I would throw a tremendous fit and rampage around until beaten to sleep by one of my elders..)

I was a very serious child.

Moshe Dayan. Eh survives being shot in the face with a sniper rifle, wins 2 and a half wars, and doesn't afraid of anything.

Genghis Khan. He destroys everything that pisses him off, and more importantly, is ridiculously innovative while doing so.

Gandalf always knew what was up. You ask Gandalf "Why's all this going down?" he'd tell you, but it'd sound really profound and moving.

When I was growing up I really only had one hero and I kept an attachment to him even until now:

I think I was in first grade when Free Willy came out and have been utterly obsessed ever since. I have portfolios upon portfolios tracking his life and more pictures than I can count.

I guess I did have something of another hero. Vaporeon and Persian from Pokemon. I can't really think of any others now. x.x

xD I trust you to be wise enough to not mean that.

Curved fins do, however, depress ME. D:

I am available as an RP mentor should you seek to improve.
I draw things that you may like.
I like Ronald Jenkees and you might, too.

I require a certain level of writing skill in my stories. Don't be insulted, I just prefer to RP novel-level material. (I, I, I, me, me, me. I sound like such a jerk.)

No, honestly, those were my childhood heroes. I was a very serious child. I gave myself "the talk" with the aid of an encyclopedia when I was 11, and when my parents asked me if I knew what sex was, I said "Do you mean differentiation or reproduction?" Very serious child.

Sailor fucking moon! I loved her as a kid.

She's from a game called "Saga Frontier". I loved her storyline, it's so dramatic and simply AMAZING!

And lastly...

I remember this one episode where he had to save a bunch of children from this villain named Candlejack. What this villain would do is kidnap anyone who said his n

No, of course I don't.

Oh wait I remember Candle- AHAHA, TRICKED YOU YA BASTARD!! I'M PREPARED FOR YOU!!

*Advances towards 'CJ' and brings a cudgel against his head*

*He wakes up tied to a chair under a dripping pipe with a bright light in his eyes*
