Heroes (ヒーロー) are individuals who use their Quirks to protect civilians from villains, natural disasters, or any other kind of harm. Those who take heroism as a profession are referred to as Pro Heroes (プロヒーロー).

Overview
Heroes started appearing when the phenomenon occurred and the general populace acquired Quirks. Depending on their performance, heroes have the potential to receive government pay, along with fame and glory.

The Japanese Hero Billboard Charts
Every year, twice a year, all heroes and hero teams are being ranked by an event called the Japanese Hero Billboard Charts. The rating factors in resolved incidents, contributions to society and public approval. All Might used to be the absolute #1 hero, until his retirement, when Endeavor took his spot as number one.

Hero Name
A Hero Name is a name a Hero chooses to identify themselves. While Heroes in training may choose tentative names in high school, Pro Heroes often are known by the name they first pick.

Hero Names are considered very important to a professional career, as they can bring a person closer to the image they may want to cement, and are also able to reflect their true character. A person may also choose to use the same name or a very similar one to an already well-known Hero that is no longer active, however, that comes with the responsibility and pressure to uphold the name's legacy.
