Kid Hero (EntityTopic, 7)

From Compile Worlds

Kid Heroes are some of the notoriously common hero archetypes. Depending on the game, they may be little boys or lolis. They have the power to defeat god while not being old enough to drive a car or even be in their puberty. Of course, because they're just little kids, they need a nakama to help them. But oftentimes, the nakama with these kids act as if they have no kids at all.

Because there are many archetypes that may apply to kid heroes, their personalities may vary but they are very notable for their immaturity.

Their ages usually range from 8-15 but they can also be younger or older than the usual range. The highest age allowed for kid heroes is 17 because even teenagers are still kids. The most common age for teenage kid heroes is 14 while for the kids, 12.

Spiky-haired protagonists and magical girls are usually kid heroes depending on the character.
