Whenever you hear the word Superhero,which name comes to your mind?

The name that will come might be your favorite Superhero or just the most popular one but no matter which name came,being a Superhero would mean the same thing.

Take this quiz, for example, to fully understand what I am trying to say.

Answer Yes or No to the questions.Don't think too much about it and just answer the first thing that comes to your mind.





1)Is he always Fair?

His motive would always be the one towards justice.No matter how many laws he breaks or

bad people having families get hurt,we still think he is fair.





2)Is he always the Leader?



inspired team of side-kicks.But,he makes all the cut-throat decisions. He is always in charge of the whole operation.Sometimes,it is the Police working with him others just his







3)Is he always willing to sacrifice?

Do his decisions always affect him more than anybody else?Like wearing a mask for starters!

Like him losing the love of his life or confronting villains for the sake of saving hostages?





4)Is his origin story always inspiring or motivating?Does it give you a connection to him?

Like the story or event makes you want to give the powers to him yourself if you had the ability?





5)Do things turn out to be good in the end?

Do good, have good.That applies on Superheroes too people.Well sometimes,it doesn't but comes with the job.









If the answer for roughly four out of these five were Yes then you are on the right track.That is what makes a typical Superhero and by now you have started to understand that they are more alike than different.





Following are the 7 qualities of a Superhero which are found in almost all of them and are listed as a tribute to them.But what is surprising is that all of these traits are actually meant to inspire us (fans).

We can actually work to develop them or by doing so understand what they go through in their life.







Of course,since we don't have Super strength or Regeneration,we have to experience them on a small scale.





1)Super-factor









Well, you are not a Superhero unless there isn't something Super about you.Almost every superhero has a supernatural ability and some even more than one.These powers define them and give us a chance to get into hypothetical battles over who is stronger than the other.







But,we can't forget Batman,green Arrow, and Hawkeye etc.They do no have supernatural power but what they do have is a super factor that makes them rise above normal people.That can be marksmanship,accuracy,tactics,fighting skills and so many different things that help them kick bad guys ass.





2)Courage.





This one is also a must for being a Superhero.You can't have a Superhero who will chicken out on the last moment or when faced with the apocalypse.





Superheroes stand tall and face their fears for the sake of others.







Bravery is the central part of this job.No use in Super strength if you don't even have the will to fight right?





Superheroes often take a beating sometimes more than anyone else can survive but still,they do get the job done through their sheer will.(and huge amount of luck which makes things turn out exactly the way they need them to.....that fact would always elude you)





3)Sacrifice











On top of all that,they almost never get the girl at the end.The Job always gets in the way.If it is not that then someone else dies.





Superheroes always put others before them.They only ever come out to save the day when their city is in crisis right?

They only wear masks to protect the people they care about right?



the sake of one hostage.Just to save even one life.









I mean they will literally surrender themselves to the bad guy forthe sake of one hostage.Just to save even one life.



4)A Strong Moral Code





Superheroes can't really work on their own will as to do good sometimes and enjoy life at others.They follow a deep moral code usually saving people is the main job requirement.

Their purpose is always clear and they provide justice.

5)Inspiration.





Superheroes are all inspiring and mesmerizing.We have cosplays just to feel like they do.So it is safe to say that they motivate you to do good in life and stop bad things from happening.

They are wired to see good in people and try to rescue even their archenemies

They always leave a good impression on the youngsters who will be the future.

6)Good Character





Superheroes true strength comes not when they want it but when they need it.To save others from world disasters.











They help others and use their abilities for the sake of others only(well mostly because we don't get to know them 24/7).





7)Flaws?.....Well! No one is Perfect.

Their goal is the pursuit of perfection or getting stronger to beat enemies.

Each Superhero has his own flaws and weaknesses.Superman has kryptonite,Batman has well most of the things that hurt human beings and so on.But,they only have these flaws so that they can relate to us.They overcome them and give us a boost that we can do it too.

These are some of the defining qualities of a superhero.How many of these can you develop in yourself is entirely up to you.

The more effort you put into it the more you become like your favorite character but I do not recommend going in costumes and saving people.

You can start by affecting those around you.When everyone is good then there won't be a need for superheroes, right?(Who am I kidding...they will still be around).

Thanks for reading and I hope it helped.
