Harry Potter

Harry is the main character and hero. He is not the typical run-of-the-mill hero. He is neither tall nor good-looking. He has neither great physical strength nor extraordinary intelligence. He is short and skinny and wears glasses. Actually, he seems to be quite an ordinary boy except that he is a wizard. And even that is not exceptional, as all the other characters of the book also have magical qualities.
