I thought that the heroes were only relics from the olden days. I didn’t understand why anyone would wait for them. But the world still needs heroes. Even as time goes by, that fact will never change.
— Neinheart, regarding the Heroes

The Heroes of Maple, also named simply the Heroes are a character class in the game Maplestory who are based around six legendary mages and warriors who binded the game's major antagonist, the Black Mage. The group originally formed as a response to the Black Mage and his commanders razing a majority of the maple world, and in consequence the dark wizard's ulterior motive to absorb the power of the world's transcendentals of Time and Life. In a climactic battle at the Temple of Time, the Heroes alongside the Demon weakened and imprisoned the Black Mage in prison outside of time and space, at the cost of the existence of one of its members, Eunwol. The remaining heroes were cursed by the Black Mage to be frozen in ice to forget their lives and lose their powers, the process of which killed the original Dragon Summoner, Freud.

After Luminous, Aran, Phantom, and Mercedes emerged from their prisons, they awakened to a world not yet free from the influence of the Black Mage, many of them embarking on quests to discover their former selves and regain their former powers. Ultimately, the Heroes would reunite with one another under the leadership of their newest addition, Evan, to take down the remaining commanders of the Black Mage, beginning with Damien.

Battle vs. Gatewatch (by Dargoo Faust)[]

TBW

WINNER - TIE

Expert's Opinion[]

Experts couldn't properly reach a conclusion, as while the Gatewatch suffer from a plethora of problems as a team, and many of their members are directly countered by the Heroes, their use of power nullification and binding make this a coin toss, or a contest of "who uses their powers first".
