Default Re: heroic heroes

I like the idea. Here are some Mythoses/heroes that come to mind:

Greeks
--achilles--prot 30 without armor, att/def 20/20
--hercules--st30, has the lion skin armor that gives him invulnerability (robe of invulnerability), att/def 13/13, uses no weapons except his fist?
--charon the centaur (?)--precision of 20
--Perseus maybe
--Theseus maybe--has the aegis shield, ultra-sharp sword, can fly (shoes of hermes)

Romans:
Romulus--some type of werewolf? animal awe?
Remus--some type of werewolf? animal awe?
Caesar--huge standard, awe, amazing leadership, poisoned dagger (irony)
Nero--demonic, seduce,

Mid East/Far East (kind've)
Gilgamesh--immortal, st 20, att/def 15/15
Enkidu--same as above (twins)
Alexander the Great--phalanx, cataphracti, leadership, awe, knot-cutting, elite knitting
Genghis Khan--give him elite light cavalry, elite mounted archers, etc.
Kublai Khan--a special castle that has uniquely powerful resource and taxation powers, lots of extra income from "trade" somehow

Celtic/Irish/British
Kukullain Himself--boulder throwing like Jotun
Cuiccal--spear man
Taliesin the bard
Taran Pigkeeper
Dalben the sorceror
Beowulf
Arthur Pendragon
Merlin

Lots more out there. Hindu; Mesopotamian; Early Babylonian; the old Hebrew Heroes; the Roman generals; Carthage (Hannibal and his elephants); Sumerian monsters and heroes were endless....
