**Hero Alexander Spriggins** (born July 20, 2005), is a main character in TLOS: TAOMAT and the tritagonist of Princess Heidi, he is an 8-15 year old boy who is the son of Jack and Goldilocks.

## Background

Hero was born in the Cemetery of the Undead Pt. 2. After the Land of Stories was at peace, Hero grew up living in Jack's manor which was rebuilt and spent most of his childhood chasing around, hanging out at home, and causing mischief with Salvador "Slightly" Charming and Christopher "Chris" Charming and his twin brother Chad Charming and occasionally Ronald. According to him, he had a crush on Ash since childhood.

## Appearance

Just like in the book, Hero has blond hair and blue eyes inherited from his mother and his father's strong chin and broad shoulders.

For clothing, he usually wears a light blue hoodie, black pants, and white sneakers, sometimes he wears a blue cap as well. When attending balls and other formal events, he usually wears a dark blue tuxedo with a black bowtie. He also wears a black quiver with several arrows in it.

## Personality

Hero is brave, clever, selfless, kind, and strong and still enjoys violence even as an older boy. But violence just empower him rather than creating a lullaby. Unlike his mother, he is not afraid of bears but has arachnophobia and also thinks the larger the spider the creepier (which is ironic because Kenny Porgie doesn't even fear spiders even with his father's poor social skills).

Hero has a measure of sarcasm at times, inherited from his Aunt Red. He also talks very fast after drinking caffeinated drinks like his mother.

## Abilities

Hero inherits his parents' skill with axes and swords, but he is best with bows and arrows (which was taught by Jack), he has spectacular aim and can hit a target at high speed. He also has skills with guns and other far-firing weapons like slingshots and crossbows. Despite this, he is not very skilled with pole weapons like spears and tridents.

He is also known for his supreme driving skills. As he can drive almost anything or ride any animal. In fact, his driving skills are so good that in episode 2 where Alex talks to Conner about him, Slightly, Ash, and Hope, all of them haven't been seen by Conner for 8 years, that if kids could get driving licenses he'd pass on attempt one.

## Trivia
