This list is for characters in fictional works who exemplify the qualities of an antihero. Characteristics in protagonists that merit such a label can include, but are not limited to:
- imperfections that separate them from typically "heroic" characters (selfishness, ignorance, bigotry, etc.);[citation needed]
- lack of positive qualities such as "courage, physical prowess, and fortitude," and "generally feel helpless in a world over which they have no control";[1]
- qualities normally belonging to villains (amorality, greed, violent tendencies, etc.) that may be tempered with more human, identifiable traits (confusion, self-hatred, etc.);[citation needed]
- noble motives pursued by bending or breaking the law in the belief that "the ends justify the means."[citation needed]
Each of these examples has been identified by a critic as an antihero, although the classification is somewhat subjective.[original research?] Some of the entries may be disputed by other sources and some may contradict all established definitions of antihero.
