She is basically Arthurian fanfiction, written to be a badass faerie mage lady knight ancestress of the english royal family to make Queen Elizabeth I happy. She was almost definitely an inspiration for Eowyn and made an appearance in Fables. She had a magic spear and shield and golden armor, and could cast barriers and fight with magic. Unfortunately she was written in a period where you could actually be killed for being a witch, so all the magical fights tend to be written like "and then she defeated the Enchanter" rather than describing the fight. They were more detailed when she was kicking butt with her spear, though.
A small child who somehow fixes mental problems of Asriel Dreemurr, who is then compelled to free everyone instead of trying to kill all monsters and humans. Did I mention that Asriel Dreemurr essentially was a "legendary" being compared to who he was facing and still couldn't kill this kid who was supposed to be just a some random kid accidentally finding the monsters world?
"Behold our hero: subjected to mutations and rigorous sword and sorcery training as a child, he has become a superhuman monster slayer. Always penniless and often disdained by those whom he protects, he wanders the world seeking work. Fate has little mercy for him, piling obstacles in his way, yet he trudges on. He has more scruples than a beggaring bum has fleas. Doubts haunt him even when a band of ruffians, knives drawn, approaches him on the highway.
Is he a good man? I do not think so. Does he try to maintain his humanity? I believe he does.You must know that Geralt of Rivia died once already, or at least everyone thought him dead. During a massacre in Rivia, he sought to defend nonhumans and fell to overwhelming odds.
Placed in a boat, he floated into the mist, into a realm where he finally found peace. Not for long. Because of forces to mentioned later, Geralt returned just in time to defend the witchers' ancient home fortress, and then embarked on a mission to recover the secrets stolen from it.
Along the way he took part in a Scoia'tael uprising, shattered a powerful criminal organization, and killed the Grand Master of the Order of the Flaming Rose. All the while his fame as a lover grew. Well, that's Geralt for you. As if all this wasn't enough, he then foiled the attempted assassination of King Foltest of Temeria and became one of the monarch's most trusted men."
Geralt of Rivia. From both the saga and the games.
“People like to invent monsters and monstrosities. Then they seem less monstrous t… morehemselves. When they get blind-drunk, cheat, steal, beat their wives, starve an old woman, when they kill a trapped fox with an axe or riddle the last existing unicorn with arrows, they like to think that the Bane entering cottages at daybreak is more monstrous than they are. They feel better then. They find it easier to live.”
“Evil is evil. Lesser, greater, middling, it makes no difference. Proportions are negotiated, boundaries blurred. I’m not a pious hermit. I haven't done only good in my life. But if I’m to choose between one evil and another, then I prefer not to choose at all.”

Assuming we're talking about protagonists, I'll be going with Shao Jun from Assassin's Creed: Chronicles or Rhys from Tales from the Borderlands.
Thor...for obvious reasons .
Superman is a close 2nd.

Fuck men wearing capes and tight speedos and celebrities leading my ideal image for superiority. I AM the superior.
I AM the Superior Spider-Man.

Lee Everett ....
Are those obvious reasons that Chris Hemsworth is the most fuckable human being on the planet? Because I can agree with that reason.
Well, you're sitting here on this forum. Obviously you're that superior.
