The '''Hero''' of {{Dragon Quest X}} is a revived human who has incarnated in one of the five other races of their world after a monster assault on their home village of [[Tenton]].

==Appearance and personality==
Prior to their death, the Hero was a youth in their late teens who lived a quiet life with their family and fellow villagers. Their design carries a tropical flair owning to Tenton's nature as an island community, and the male Hero is typically represented as a [[Warrior]] using the Scottish inspired design for promotional material.

When the Hero was born, the [[Galapogod]] stood up and roared, his cries echoing all through out the island. This was taken as a sign by the village elders of the infant having a powerful destiny, particularly the grandmotherly [[Tenda]]. The Hero is exceptionally skilled at [[Alchemy]], often fixing the mistakes of their siblings and neighbors.

==Appearances==
==={{DQ10}}===
The game begins with the player customizing the Hero and their younger brother and sister, followed by a brief tutorial segment that introduces the inhabitants of Tenton and the Hero's place in the close-nit community. This tranquil life comes to an abrupt and tragic end when a force of monsters led by [[Nelgel]] massacre the villagers in a full frontal assault. The Hero is able to save their siblings, but they themselves are quickly killed.

Awakening in a strange place known as the [[Room of Revival]], the Hero is given a second chance at life by incarnating as one of the world's five civilized races: an [[Ogre (race)|Ogre]], [[Elf]], [[Dwarf]], [[Poppet]], or [[Wetling]]. Once restored to the land of the living in the territory of their new race, the Hero must adjust to their new body, reunite with their siblings, and avenge Tenton.
 
==={{DQ11}}===
The {{Luminary}} encounters the Hero and Heroine in the Room of Revival shortly after their demise. They have been rendered unable to reincarnate due to a monster know as the [[Revivalist]] replacing the statues of each race with those of monsters. Once the raving reverend is disposed of, the duo can safely return to life and thank the Luminary with a  pair of [[All-Weather Earrings]] for his trouble.

==Trivia==
*This is the first Hero to die as a part of the game's story.
*The cameo in {{Dragon Quest XI}} marks the first time that two Heroes speak to one another.
